Absolutely friend, the wife and I love your videos for PoE, and we played Grim Dawn back in 2016, didn't know there were so many new things for it, and thanks for the video, the mods are great! @@LiftingNerdBro

[@vinny_n_p]

It's nice that some of these QOLs were added to the game. Just proves that the devs do care about their players and take in feedback even after a lot of years. Nice video!

[@dylan9124]

Lifting, not sure if you’ll see this as it’s a year old, but cheers for providing the best GD content around. I’ve been watching you, pohx, and malagant, and your content is by far the most professionally presented and concisely informative around. It’s thanks to you that I have a level 71 spin2win Templar that I’ve busted through the majority of the acts in veteran with.

[@okagisama]

Never played with any mod up til now, i may change that, great video and good mods choices.

[@ZenMorph]

Grim Dawn is my go-to ARPG these days. Great game. And it encourages build diversity and experimentation. They make it so easy to undo bad choices and respec.

[@LiftingNerdBro]

I love not feeling pigeonholed into a certain meta in order to play the game optimally. Grim Dawn really delivers on that point =)

[@lukepatto4366]

insanely good ARPG

[@eetfukouijaaa]

Thanks for this quick concise list, after completing Borderlands 3, I desperately wanted to play another looter but didn't enjoy Diablo 3's classes and how restrictive it felt sometimes. I totally forgot about Grim Dawn, last I played it was when it was still in early access. And god damn have I been missing out.

[@Psykrom]

As a heavy weight in this game since 2016 I myself can recommend the first and especially the last mod (cause legit gameplay is what keeps this genre interesting and alive), though I have to check out the lootfilter for myself. I am happy to see you spreading the word Lifting, though I look forward to your recommendations for the new PoE "melee league" coming up this Friday. I hope you can share some fun but not as gear competetive starter builds with us, as I will only have very limited time to take part in this great looking league. Finally, I want to say that I think it's a great deed that you mention and provide a link to buy Grim Dawn with the benefit to charities around the world. It's nice to forget the worries of our own and the world but knowing that we can still do some good in our time of slack, you somewhat lift the weight on our conscience so to speak, lol! Hope ya'll have fun gaming away in GD or PoE. Take care! :)

[@PeteTheL337]

Didn't know about Grim Dawn item assistant so thanks for sharing that.. What a lovely tool.

[@snynhalt]

Mods always make a new reason to return to lovely games.

[@demonetizedentertainment4291]

Been playing this for years and it's such a sadly underrated game.

[@MrHyonD]

It is not very underrated among the Diablo like fans. Of course POE is the most famous but Grim Dawn comes next :)

[@Max1mvsM]

@@MrHyonD but POE is shit, though Grim Dawn and Titan quest are the best

[@Skarwind]

@@Max1mvsM POE has it's own merits. I play it when I get a fix for trading/currency making. Grim Dawn had a more interesting story in my opinion and better build variety for me.

[@Max1mvsM]

@@Skarwind played POE for a few hours, it's just boring, even though the players with over9000 hours saying it's broken nowadays. On the other hand I wouldn't say GD has some unique story, it's prett basic, but the gameplay is dope, really relaxing, wish the the Titan Quest devs bring some features from GD to their game

[@BrendanishLeo]

@@Max1mvsM I'm not trying to fight, but your first sentence doesn't lend much merit to your statement. You can find plenty of games that have been long running, and where you find those games, you will find people who say [this game] is no longer fun/the same And to top that off, grim dawn, PoE, and basically any ARPG has one big issue. The games are all fucking terrible until level [x]. You aren't going to enjoy PoE with only a few hours in the same way most arpgs aren't fun until you can make a late-game build.

[@SinfulGFX]

My friend and I are using the Diablo 2 mod and we are quite enjoying it. If you're a D2 fan I definitely recommend It.

[@LiftingNerdBro]

Yea I am definitely going to try that! I spent LOTS of hours in D2 back in the day. To be fair though I was pretty good at Mephisto botting!

[@XaKeR167]

wow, this is amazing mods, never heard of such mods for GD, thank you !

[@islander1]

that third mod if it works like that is unbelievable! Thanks for this. Just getting started in Grim Dawn thanks to Steam spring cleaning.

[@Psykrom]

I can vouch for it, no more need for mules and eliminating the risk of willingly or unwillingly creating dupes for good.

[@phillipmitchell2254]

There was a similar one for Titan Quest + IT.

Great video, Lifting! I haven’t played GD in a long time but might come back after seeing some of these mods. Those are really cool!

[@cookiebaker2660]

My friend got me into Grim Dawn. I never really was a big fan of ARPGs, but I don't hate them either. Grim Dawn is pretty good, I like the atmosphere and stuff like constellations, but while playing as a ranged class I always felt that something is missing. And with Forgotten Gods out I know what it is. Mobility. Gameplay feels stationary. Like, you can't move while attacking even if you use pistols. You gotta stop, attack and then you can move. It kinda, uh, feels clunky. Would be nice if at some point a modder or even devs would do something about it.

Amazing, I watched your other videos first and was wondering if you were playing the same version as me. Great QoL enhancements, thanks!

[@AbleAnderson]

If you don’t wanna put 5000 hours into the game but more like 200-400, use the smash n grab mod. Increases loot drops and makes the game so much more fun to me. Smash n grab makes getting a good build actually feel attainable, and it also makes trying many different good builds possible without devoting your life to the game. It respects your time

[@bregonwebb8921]

I agree. I've done two legit characters all the way through a clean ultimate difficulty playthrough, but after that scary resistance grinding I definitely have fun trying around with builds

[@ertikengel9477]

[@Balthazzarr]

I just started playing Grim Dawn, and I've been having a good time with it. I only have about 5-6 hours so far, but there are some very obvious quality of life problems with the game that baffled me. First, clicking on every item to pick it up isn't that big a deal to me, but in Grim Dawn, they made the mind boggling decision to include an animation where the character bends down to pick up every item (or at least most of them, don't remember if components are included). In a game where you're going to be picking up thousands, if not tens of the thousands of items, this isn't just a questionable decision, it's a flat out idiotic one. On a first playthrough of a game, I have never used mods before. I like to play the game as it was originally designed first, but while this seems trivial, it adds an egregious amount of unnecessary time in the longrun and I may be forced to use that first mod to mitigate or even eliminate the frustration that causes. Also, no enemy health bars? Seriously? What year is it? How many expansions have there been? Come on, guys. And the one thing that bugs me the most is that there's no key to display "interactable" items. By this, I mean that there isn't a button that highlights objects on the screen that you can click on. Please not that I'm not talking about item drops, as those are highlighted just fine, and from what I can tell, there are some handy filters that can be used to customize that. No issues there. Primarily, I'm talking about how you have to pixel hunt to find destructible objects as well as hidden doors and the like. This seems trivial, but I'm constantly moving the mouse cursor around and putting it on objects to check if I can interact with it. It wouldn't be a problem if the "hit box" was more clearly defined, but most of the time, you have to be almost dead center in the middle of an object for it to be highlighted so you can click on it. This is especially true for the large piles in Wightmire/Foggy Banks, at least so far. If I wasn't being so thorough, I would have easily missed some stuff. Even larger objects suffer from this, though to an obvious lesser extent. Overall, I'm still having a ton of fun, but these seem to be obvious problems that could have, and should have, been officially patched out by now.

Just a warning to anybody interesting in using Grim Dawn Internals, I downloaded the file and followed instructions how they explained and all my characters were deleted. Can't find a way to restore them, I read their warning about save your files too late. Edit: Maybe they should have the disclaimer listed above the installation instructions :P (cloud saving restored my characters)

[@Krys101-Cypher]

Maybe you should read more carefully and you'd see that grim internals tells you to TURN OFF cloud saving because grim internals only works with STATIC SAVES meaning the saves that are in your documents folder (most of the time), you can also move your cloud saved characters over to the static save location after turning cloud saving off! Cloud Saving fudges with almost all grim dawn mods, that is why it is recommended to turn it off and move your characters to the non-cloud safe location...

The thing is the GI need your transfer tab to work as your item it's going to strore and take from here. But disable cloud save only give your save file not your transfer tab to your document folder so you need to go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\104109936\219990 emote\save (While the 104109936 maybe different number in your steam folder). From here you can see the stranfer.gst which is your stranfer tab, copy it into your save location in document and reload the programe again. Login to your game and go to stash then back out and wait for it to sync.
