Do you find this game boring?

[Venom SSJ]

Because I'm starting to fell bored by it's excessive repetitiveness. Agrees? Disagrees?

Lol welcome to Hack'n'slash rpg. This is prettymuch a straight up Diablo 1/3 clone, done in the key of WoW Ironforge. (please note the style, kobolds, and spiders among many other things.) If you could sit through D3, then this is much less of a drag. The thing that makes this game much more enjoyable and interesting for me over D3 has to be the fact that you get ITEMS. To restate, items that you can use, that have good stats, that feel fun to use. This is what breaks up the "click-click-click: kill, loot, repeat" that is the way of hack'n'slash rpgs, for me at least. Getting a good item geming it up, enchanting it over and over again, and watching the numbers.

I also rather like the little mini levels that you get via quests or maps or just a random enemy droping a portal, they really help break up the "clear, next floor down" which is diablo 1 in a nutshell.

But, yes, it is boring. I don't play these games more than 3-4 times through. They just get old and you want to DO SOMETHING. Which, in my opinion, if any game makes you want to stop playing games and go DO SOMETHING, it's not doing something right. Maybe its just the gene, maybe its just me, but I have yet to play a H'n'S RPG that made me want to keep playing it, or go back and play it again later. I've seen FPSs that blew my mind, RTSs that will last forever, Platformers and Combo Fighters that I'll revisit time and time again.... but the Diablo-ish H'n'S RPGs have yet to do something that really holds my intrest.

Great point of view, thx.

Np. And if you like the Hack'n'Slash gene, and want to try something that feels a bit different, check out Path of Exile. I've been playing that for the last 2-3 days, and it seems to have a lot going for it; D2ish, HUGE talent tree, flask system, abilities are gems, barter system (aka no "gold"). Oh, and its free.

2 words, Cheat codes.

I got this one for free, when GOG had their 48 hour promo for it. It is a bit monotonous and eventually, you don't feel a need to try to follow the story. It's button mashing mayhem. Some of the fight sequences get so massive, that I can't tell what's hitting me or what it is that I am hitting. I just keep leveling up and going down further. It is a great game for my workplace though (3rd shift call center), as I can pause it at any time and I don't miss out on any cut scenes or anything. It also runs well on my non gaming laptop that I have had for a few years. It's all the spirit of Nethack, without any of the strategy.

What botters me about this game it's the intense feel of claustrophobya (the entire world is actually a giant dungeon) and the small number of enemies you encounter. Damn, there's alwaya giant spider walking there every 5 floors or something... Don't know, I like the game but it's so damn repetitive... Not that D2 isn't, but i don't know, it's so full of stuff to do, here you just have to kill something and get an item to trade for another item for another class...

I agree, I lost interest towards the end. Tried to go back and finish it a few times as I hate leaving games unfinished, but I just can't find the motivation.

Compared to Torchlight 2 this is anything but boring..

I was lucky enough to win TL2 in a giveaway and had never played either of them before so went in neutral. Its just a loot filled borefest, sure it looks all cutesy and runs smooth, just a nice game but you just drown in loot and it makes the whole game worthless.

Its just a continual run of click click loot click click loot..

Now im not saying TL1 is that different, but its a very toned down version of TL2, less loot, not as shiney but somehow it works a lot better.
So if anything i would say TL2 is the real bore of the family not TL1

[StealthMomo]

This game doesn't even comes close to Divine Divinity.

[Summerfree]

It's OK but yeah, doesn't really tie you into the game like Diablo and such. I purchased it on a whim when is was on a steam sale.

[baldur5]

I think TL1 does get repetitive after a while.
