Every day since I've played this game has changed my whole existence. Each day is a tumultuous climb to the top, every 5 seconds is a mood swing, and every choice makes me question my very existence. 10/10 would recommend.

I played 50 hours in 4 days. Send help

Launch is one of the worst in recent arpg history the only game I could think of that had a worse launch is Wolcen and it would take a gargantuan effort for any game to beat that launch in terms of how bad it was.

Gameplay is.. okay at best, nothing ever feels meaningful when everything dies really easily no matter what build your running as long as you kinda know what your doing. Can easily breeze through the story (which is a very weak storyline to be honest but I don't expect much from the genre to be fair). Animations are very basic, sort of mobile game-ish to be honest.

The pacing of the game as well is very... monotonous unlike other arpg's where things start to become pretty difficult or your ability to clear screens becomes faster. Last Epoch just tells you to run to a destination and do X thing, even at the Mono's which is this game's version of Rifts/Maps, Its just find X, Kill X, Zone out, Get treasure repeat.

Endgame is pretty much D3-esque you just push higher levels of corruption instead of higher rifts so no real replayability outside of you farming for better gear. You can kind of do a little bit of bossing but they aren't really difficult. There are arenas which are basically just you defending against waves of enemies trying to kill you. That's pretty much it and a couple of dungeons that honestly in my opinion are the most boring part of the game. If I could skip them entirely I would.

Graphics.. mediocre. The game looks better at low-ish settings than at max in some zones/maps.

Sound design is honestly forgettable. Nothing really feels like your hitting hard its very bland.

Overall 3.5-4.5/10? It's D3 with a couple of bells and whistles on it?
Alongside server issues, multiplayer issues, fake queues, and infinite loading screens. 1-2/10

Game used to be good. Now its just a cashgrab pile of garbage.

CONS
*The game has no depth at all when it comes to endgame (6-8 bosses on repeat and the same tilesets over and over)
*Bug ridden (some flying monsters cannot be targeted randomly, cursor gets buggy and you can't click things for a bit, magic find bugs, potion mashing gives you extra aspd for some reason etc.)
*If you want to play online with friends servers have been iffy since launch (I only played offline so this part really doesn't hurt me but still a warning for you).
*Game feels clunky because you can only do one action at a time (ex. if your using a channeling skill you can't use a potion till you stop using your skill)


PROS
*Graphically its a pretty wonderful arpg
*Transmog system is nice
*Music in the game is pretty on point in certain portions of the game

Once all bugs are removed from the game I can see it as a game I can recommend someone to buy at 50% off or something its still a decent timesink at that point.

At current price this game is definitely not worth it, wait for a sale or hopefully you bought it before the price bump.
