Should I wait for the Breach update?

[Beyondgood]

Hey everyone!

I've always wanted to give this game a try but never found the time until now.
I was planning to start playing today, but I just noticed there's a big update coming in about a month, bringing a lot of new content.

Do you think I should wait for this update, or is the game already good to jump into right now?

Thanks a lot for your advice!

There is a save wipe with the update, so it might be a good idea to wait.
If you are okay with starting over in a month, then go ahead now.

As mentioned there is a reset, So if that is something that bothers you, probably wait.

That being said even areas that are currently in the game will get a bit of a change in the update so you won't be redoing the exact same content over again when you restart for the breach update.

I'm waiting. After reading everything they are changing, plus the wipe, I just feel the game now isn't going to represent the game after patch very well. They are literally balancing and fixing so many things I see people still bring up as issues.

It's good to see a revived interest in this game. I hope it blows up after the update just because I like the art and animations. Also, the main reason I don't like PoE or Diablo is because it turns into being an over powered tard that kills rooms full of trash mobs over and over just to see loot spam everywhere. This game seems like it has actual meaningful combat and a more immersive progression.

The game is already good enough to play now if you don't want to wait...there is 20-30 hours of content as is and it is a good opportunity to get the hang of it. If you can and want to wait, by all means go for it. At the end of the day its still the same game, its not like they are altering the fundamental mechanics, they are fleshing out what they already have in place.

When does the breach come out?

April 30th I think, the day after Dune: awakening release btw

To clear this up. Its not a "WIPE" Your old saves will remain and be playable. Just be treated as Old Realms for now. (inless more info came out)

Does sound like we need to make a New Realm... (which makes sense)
Need rewatch the video...

But ya, sound like we need start a new Character and Realm for effects to trigger right.

That's terrible. I guess I'm not playing until 1.0 lol.

There probably won't be anymore resets anytime soon. Not a guarantee, it could potentially be with every update, but devs have said they do everything to minimize resets going forward

Always a good idea, especially with the bad track record so far of this game, I'd wait until full release too.

Game looks like it has a long way to go still.

100% wait for patch, and even wait for release tbh. This game is good, but its SEVERLY lacking in content, unless you are one of those who enjoy running the same content over and over for hundreds of hours.

Im not.

[MrSundayMorning]

Wise to Wait. So am I.

[Oroy]

Yea wait for it.. The game is good but there is also a lot of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ right now in the game and a lot of it is supposed to be addressed in the next patch..

[Entenmann10]

Im planing to buy it. Looks good the breach update. Not sure how i will manage. Not a big arpg player but played a lot of Diablo and Path of exile in periods.

[mudcrab]

yes, wait.
