Last Epoch Dev Stream 158... New Weapons / Dungeons / Endgame / Tabs / Minions / Timing!!

[@ActionRPG]

What does everyone think? Excited? Thank you all for watching & don't forget to checkout the official Action RPG Discord: discord.gg/YHa2UGhFQ5

[@asmoto755]

Thank you for putting together these summaries!

[@Billy.Bacsko]

I hope Mike's weight loss is not something due to health problems. He looks older since losing it.

[@peppersplease]

ive been blasting poe 2 but LE is special for me... idk man... their ideas of crafting, passives in skills , legandary items, filter in game, nemesis ( bro i love nemesis ) Cant wait for new content

[@traktor321]

im playing poe2 but i m more excited for LE.i am weird like that

[@jgsource552]

yea even the poe devs praised their crafting systems and qols

[@coolyoutubeluke]

I asked the Unique stash tab question. Really loved Mikes answer too around being able to track items we've found.

[@Dexthesaga]

This torchlight season is epic. Once it dies down last epoch is next to return to. Haven’t played since POE dropped obv but the updates are FINALLY COMING (or here?!) Fantastical TIME TO BE IN AN ARPG STANLEY!

[@seiyaphl]

Yeah new tli season sucks ass

[@TheMonsenstein]

Going to be so awesome!

[@karj_gaming]

Thank you for doing these, Aaron! :)

[@druiz1975]

Bought this game a long time ago, will wait till season 2 to finally start playing

[@banishedbr]

Base 2h cold mace for finally using some primalist passives, HOPIUM 🤤

[@GuybrushTThreepwood]

OoOo, swipe with cold pen?

[@bradleye1964]

Last Epoch in like 2 years will be such a great game.

[@vampocalpyse]

I think he missed the reason for people asking for a uni tab altogether. It's not a proof of finding its a place where the unique goes and you can quickly locate it and compare if you find another.

[@AntoineSaunders-cn3cm]

Good afternoon brotha

[@ActionRPG]

hi hi

[@sheabishop6200]

I think the 9 month wait will translate into normal 3-4 month waits in the future. If they had decided to rush what they are working on now, the waits would have had a high chance to be 6-7 months every time going forward. It still sucks to wait this long but we aren’t on the dev team so there is little use in complaining

[@immatoll4375]

I do not understand why they did not just made additional cycles or optional sub-cycles (like last PoE Season). It's not about content. Many people just want regular resets to have a reason to come back and start from scratch. May even compete with friends for 1-2 weeks etc.

[@g-xavier]

That question about new weapon types was my question, but I lost the moment he responded to it on live.

[@waterdrew]

Never stop making these vids!

[@LVHAXOR316]

My guess for the bottom is things you pick up for Monoliths some form of maps like Poe

[@Vaeamas]

There's only one thing I wish they would do. I'm left handed. So when I pick stuff up or want to view things in the inventory. I wish the tabs could be moved to the left side

[@Mr_Shuffle]

I got a white lizard tail key from a lizard :) It say on epoch tools that its 0.01% drop rate so kinda excited 2 use it =P Hope I can use it for the new update. Since I can not figure out wher 2 use it inn game for now, I went to all of the "secret locations and it did not work there" hmm..... Looks like it is on the new key tab from the video tho! :D

[@abysskun9518]

Do you guys think we'll ever get a Katana or Samurai type Mastery? I know about the BBC + Shadow Daggers build for the blade dancer, but man, I wish we got more. I swear I'll never understand why every ARPG has rogue and dual dagger classes but seldom have katana/samurai focused classes with iai slashes, counter and whatnot, as we see on other action games using the "Vergil" archetype

[@DoctorStrange01]

Because it's weeb shit that doesn't fit Western ARPG fantasy worlds. Keep that in jRPGs and Asian MMOs.

[@FlameForgedSoul]

One handed spears, Our Hoplite Sentinel demands it.

[@AntoineSaunders-cn3cm]

I love last epoch just waiting for new content im currently playing Poe 2 trying your brute build lol but im mad cause I equipped a new weapon to try out and all the sudden my original good weapon just disappeared 🤦🏽‍♂️

[@yeetcannon1693]

Jumped back in LE for a blast recently after not playing since launch. Lotsa good changes like the added movement skill and that engine update was great. Over the holidays, offline play saved me from going crazy. I dunno why everyone expects a studio of this size to keep up with bli$$ or GGG. Agree - too long in this case, but at least they are developing tech to better the game in the long run. Im still in shock this was a $30 game. Probably the best value game I have ever bought. Thanks EHG/AARPG

[@doctorjohn7156]

Its been a looong while since I watched one of these Mike is looking older and has definately Lost alot of weight hope he is alright

[@panerdar]

I think some of the "social issues" might be linked to steam issues. My steam friends list regularly shows friend offline or online when they are actually playing a game. If I restart steam, it updates or if I right click them and view profile it shows what they are really doing.

[@vyktorzhuravlev8304]

I like that dungeons have different loot mechanics :)))

[@GamerFish1234]

They release the patch notes soon?

[@vyktorzhuravlev8304]

I wonder if it’s possible to make a dungeon where ye collect corruption, and then spend it on loot :)))) For example, such a dungeon could be found by chance on the Monolith :))

[@AntoineSaunders-cn3cm]

Absolutely

[@the1deadman543]

I think procedural dungeons and maps in general will being much more replayability. Im really excited for that. Kinda like diablo 2 where maps change , not in a huge way but in a fun way. Im still playing LE everyday , but im really excited for s2

[@mateuszarkusinski2995]

Have they mentioned LE on consoles in the future ?

[@Sashimiburger]

I just want them to fix the port out and back map and item reset issue. That's a MASSIVE bug that's been in the game since the beginning.

[@AndreyThePal]

well it's not a bug. thats how the game works. Mike talked about it like multiple times.

[@offspring890]

Only thing I want to see is WSAD added to the game

[@splyce5111]

Any update on steam deck yet? They said it was gonna be verified months ago

[@khmergodhobbies]

hey acton rpg, are the new items coming in a regular patch, or will it be season patch or season only

[@drakthorsOdinson]

:( was hoping he would say VoID minions!!!! Mike the man of many secrets lol.

[@PeterPan-fk5nq]

wow - how much weight did he loose??

[@Xariann]

April WEN? (Yes, yes, in April...)

[@callmethreeone]

I love games like this, is it still worth getting into for newer players?

[@brennamcalhany1986]

yes. you could buy it and try it now if you wish to do so and get a feel for the game or you can wait until April when all the new content is dropped.

[@callmethreeone]

@@brennamcalhany1986 Thank you. I think I am just going to grab it and start playing.

[@MrRafagigapr]

when i saw the developers put loot filters in game i knew their priorities were "fixing" things their competition did "wrong" instead of adding stuff that made them good

[@oxyoxyloged1311]

They added a lot of good stuff and loot filters accessible inside the game inside of having to use 3rd party sites or programs and then logging on to the game's website to set them up is objectively a better system. You're just looking for reasons not to like the game. That's fine, you don't have to like it, there are plenty of ARPGs on the market.

[@micheljolicoeur6094]

"Technically true". So technically you are getting new minions by Season 3, whatever that means..

[@MaxxxMaxMaxx]

I hope the new inventory thing doesn't suffer from what D4 and in some cases also PoE suffers frrom, "HurR DuRR iT OnlY StacKS tO 99 FucK yOU loL" I trust in EHG :D

[@Jazeau]

When i see the roadmap for LE is very promissing. I need more games like LE. Last epoch give the best loot filter, one of the best crafting system. I hope for have better endgame because to be honnest the endgame is very boring for now. But i think the devs is on the good direction for the next i'm very exited to see the futur of the game ! ^^

[@Thad91]

My latest laptop runs PoE 2 and D4 fine on high settings. But LE...cant even run it on lowest settings. The state of the game is sad.

[@bradleye1964]

Last Epoch will be upgraded and will be improved, they are not GGG or Blizzard... this is basically the game that will launch them into an even better sequel or entirely new game.

[@codipherus66]

My most wanted feature: Campaign skip.

[@DoctorStrange01]

There kinda is an alternate pathing available. PoE has no alternatives so there's that :D

[@CubanBeastt]

Yo what is going on with Mike? is he sick? He looks very sick.

[@Impuracle]

No, he has talked about his weight loss and is happy and healthy.

[@Em4gdn1m]

He looks so much better. Lost a ton of weight. I think he looks great.

[@CubanBeastt]

@Impuracle oh okay that's good to know. He just reminded me of my grandfather when he got cancer and lost a lot of weight.

[@VoyKarma]

@@Em4gdn1m He looks sick not healthy

[@Diogo_7237]

Finally some crit for smite, but what I really wanted is something new to Warpath, a unique or a new node, anything.

[@zefrogi]

Sentinel is being reworked so I wouldn't be surprised if spin got some new tricks.

[@joelhodoborgas]

I dont mind long seasons, D2 9 months ladder was perfect.

[@LPJMANGA]

NEW CLASSES OR MASTERIES INTERESTING IM KEEN AS FK

[@verde5738]

One-Handed Spears PLEASE!

[@Cryttanz]

The fact it's early January and they're already content locking even tho it releases in April is crazy. GGG literally work on stuff up to the day of release. EHG seems like a crazy inefficient company.

[@vamps3000]

Why that dude got so skinny is he okay?

[@Simon-vh1du]

YOU ARE TO SLOV

[@vanityform8364]

poe2 and last epoch but so little time

[@z1g]

I played the hell out of LE when it was in early access. Almost 1k hours. Just can't stand the game now and won't touch it. If I never see a monolith again in my life, I'm good with it.

[@khmergodhobbies]

i like how ascensions is in this game and minions are really good. POE 2 sekhemas is cancer

[@ErikaPwnz]

You can just run ultimatum instead

[@Cryttanz]

If this season comes out after 9 months of work and isn't a complete banger. I'm probably done with this game. I'm sorry but GGG set the standard very high with huge 3-4 month seasons.

[@GrayBeardFPS]

Im trying to not be to hopefull.

[@pedaleou]

I love the crafting and skill trees in LE. also the best economy experience off all ARPGs with the guilds but that's all... After playing PoE 2 and D4... they are the ones I will embrace at most... maybe in the future. I come back... for now LE gameplay does not feel that impactful to my taste

[@Makszi]

LE 4 life

[@deenman23]

this game is so painfuly dead...oh well,lets hope titan quest 2 does better

[@RARA-kf2qw]

Gme is dead, abandoned by devs

[@blackhawkvenom5724]

These devs are complete and total ass at updating. If they don't improve, they absolutely deserve to fail.

[@narbwow8168]

Who cares. There are a million other good games out there to play while you wait.

[@robm78]

poe 2 has ruined everything

[@rednab2001]

No fears. POE2 is just the new flavor of the month. I have seen nothing in POE2, except for the Unreal Engine graphics and the occasional boss fights that have impressed me. The quality of life and actual fun factor is inferior to several other ARPGs. The only ARPG that is truly innovating and having their concepts taken into other games is Last Epoch. I played a bit of POE2 early access, and it was so miserable that I was inspired to create a new character in Last Epoch so I could actually have some fun. I'm an older gamer with a full-time job and a real life. I don't have the time or patient to get on the Path of Exile struggle bus anymore. I did it for far too long in POE1, which I played as my main game until two years ago. There is no way in Hades that I am playing POE2 Ruthless mode. I am not, nor will I ever be, a full-time gamer.

[@Em4gdn1m]

@@rednab2001 I can't come back to LE, personally. I tried again today and it just feels sooooo bad. like, I don't know how to explain it, but you just feel floaty? Nothing seems to really impact correctly with the objects around them. Graphics are terrible, and the game after the campaign is just as terrible as PoE2, but PoE2 is only early access with promise that this endgame is not the final iteration for release.

[@brennamcalhany1986]

@@Em4gdn1m maybe you should try it again in season 2. They did say they were expanding the endgame for season 2 and I believe the combat as well.

[@wisnia8139]

I came back after 4 months and turned on my characters. It turned out that these builds don't work anymore. My question. Why are you ruining people's fun and then complaining that you have few players?

[@juliusjune3021]

Omg. How old are you 10? It sound like thats the case. But as I would explain to a kid. Its about balancing. And yes, in terms of balancing you crying baby does not matter but better character balance counts more.

[@danielmallory9974]

Does every game not balance things out? Nerfs and buffs and tweaks? It's kinda just how EVERY game works now.

[@FlameForgedSoul]

RIP Bozo?

[@wisnia8139]

@@juliusjune3021 This is your thinking that Diablo 4 died because of such build killing. Baland and deprivation of playability are two different things. As then there will be crying that few players play Last epoch. You will then blame yourself. Statistics don't lie

[@juliusjune3021]

@@wisnia8139 No this is my thinking that random guys who does not have a clue of game developement make some rude comments instead of understanding that game balance can sometimes be hard for yourself but overall is a improvements (most of the time) for the game. The world doesn't revolve around you
