“The "spiritual successor" to Diablo 2 that fans have been pining about for years.”
92 – MMORPG

“Blow for blow, this is one of the best ARPGs in years.”
8.7 – IGN

“Grim Dawn’s the action RPG I’ve enjoyed most in quite some time, and I’m very keen to try the later chapters as they’re released. More so than Torchlight 2, which was a bit too much of a sugar rush experience for me, and certainly more so than Diablo III”

Obviously enough here to play for quite a while. It feels very nice and has the traditional ARPG addiction quality. However I felt like the world was pretty familiar thoughout and then ending was very anticlimactic.

Grim Dawn

Im just having a blast with this game, I wish I had bought this game sooner none the less Its still worth every penny in my book. Seeing some friends playing it made me want to also delv in and enjoy the game, and that I most certainly am.

The maps are huge, there are tons and tons of quests to aquire and complete as you play through, the lands are massive and beautifully detailed compared to what I have played in the past. There is stacks of items to pick up, crafting, and alsorts of stuff to do in this game, so much so Im so lost with it all. I mostly just equipt the best weapons and items checking the stats then sell the rest, so I can stock up on health and energy vials. You can also store your items in storage places in the towns as well

You get to make rifts (portals), but only 1 at a time, so I use this when out exploring hacking & slashing away while having fun, so if I die I can warp back to where I was or nearing a mission and OR a Boss fight. When you die you will loose your experiance points, so make sure you go back to your grave marked with a skull to reclaim them. At times I could not do this as I lost my place and or was a dare devil and ran through the green stuff, dont run through long paths of green stuff ok, try find a way round.

There are also pets you can earn to help you, I have 2 plus a pet that spawns on his own, dont ask me how I got them, I have no idea, but I have them now. Maybe thats why Im slower at leveling up in the game, because Im sharing my points I earn around to my pets, as they not strong yet. But they do help me out, I love my pets :)

Anyway there is just to much to explain with this game, and I cant possiblly explain it all, nor word it all appropriately. I just wanted to share that I am having a blast with this game, its addictive but only if its your kinda game. I will continue to play this game and hope I can finish it as well. Who needs more games ?, I now have Grim Dawn :)

Price wise to me its worth the full price, BUT if your patient wait for another sale, this game does not disapoint.;)

Just for the record, game plays great with the Xbox controller, but was a pain to work out how to get it all set up. I managed and I now play this with my Xbox controller :)

This is the set up guide for the Xbox controller, a friend was happy for me to share on my review for anyone looking for help in setting the Xbox controller up. Thank you @powbam for the guide and letting me share it as well

56 hours in, so far this game is everything i hoped it could be, and more. I am constantly pleasantly surprised with the 'Altering' deciscions you can make, and how it affects your own world. The hack n Slash, Cast n Blast is very real, though with all the customizable difficulty settings, you can set it up just how you like it. This is the best of both Diablo and Torchlights world. Dual Classing? Yes its a thing. Constellation star points for extra special stats and abilities? It's a thing. Spec trees and cheap respecs? A thing. Rich story line, and the addictiveness is that to match of some opiates on steroids. All this considered, The multiplayer aspect is wonderful as well, making it incredibly friendly to play with people you know, even if there is a large level difference, without the need to power level. The gear drops are generous to say the least. they keep you happy, and they keep the gear coming. Boss runs and dungeon crawls, very standard to this genre, but simply appealing in so many ways, from the screen shake to the way slaying mobs of bloody bursting zombies into an explosion of innards and hemoglobin...it is just so satisfying. Reccomend. Multiplayer is strong as well.

There's a class focused on rifles, molotovs, grenades and a freaking mortar. In a fantasy universe. I'm sold.

I'm fairly new to the ARGP genre despite gaming since the late 1970's. Even though I've tinkered with them here and there over the years I really started getting serious about them with Diablo 3. This is one of the better ones I've played. Everything from the setting to the nearly limitless character possibilites make Grm Dawn a standout game. My only complaint, and it's a minor one, is that even though the store page says "full controller support" it's extremely wonky with an Xbox 360 controller. Maybe it's meant to be played with a Steam Controller? I don't now.

Pretty good ARPG and an interesting universe much along the lines of the Lovecraftian like Warhammer. I got a good 35 something hours on my first playthrough on Normal-Veteran doing almost all the side quest available, but not repeating the bounties. Once I hit level 50 I started replaying on Elite and the grind is still enjoyable. However, I was disappointed to learn that there is no joining the enemy factions. I suppose that would require a more flexible narrative, but that makes the reputation system seem pointless. It's solely there as a grinding mechanic, but by the time you get the needed rep to acquire those faction items you're already decked out with loot that's far better.

It doesn't carry nearly as epic a narrative as Diablo and it isn't as great after the first playthrough. It just feels very short and the world very small. The narrative is also hit and miss, sometimes you find an amazing piece of side text that I think would make an amazing novella, and other times you're going through some really boring dialogue. The voice acting also ranges from really great to campy and poorly recorded. So instead of being immersed in this dark, grim struggle to save humanity I mostly feel like I'm just crossing items off a list.

I'm pretty torn about how I feel about this game, but for $15 on Steam sale I felt it was worth it.

It is so much worse than Diablo 3 or Torchlight 2. Graphics are worst of any game i have played in last 5 years, but the art design is even worse. It's ugly but is goes beyond that. I can't pick out the diiference betwwen ranged and melee enemies at all. I have to pause to do so which is unacceptable. Torchlight 1 came out 7 years ago for $20. It doesn't have good graphics just like this game. However I could always tell what was going on due to actually competent art design. Also, why does the game need to be so dark??? I have gamma and screen brightness maxed and i'm still squinting to see, which is just stupid. Enemy AI is the other major issue with the game, as in there is only two kinds: ranged and melee. Therefore, every encounter in the game will be the same as the first just with higher damage values. It also makes mobs easy to cheese around corners infinitely as a ranged char. I don't think this game is worth playing unless you ONLY play ARPGs tbh.

As a veteran player of aRPGs, I want to share my feels about Grim Dawn with you, after about 90h of gameplay.

Features I like:
+ Involving, dark story.
+ Beautiful graphics and style,
+ Atmospheric soundtrack,
+ Very satisfying and 'meaty' combat model,
+ Faction system with bounties and nemezis hunting (though I've never faced any),
+ Devotion system,
+ Festival of loot,
+ Good crafting system,
+ Lots of components, aguments and item-granted skills which provide wide variety of builds,
+ Day/night and wheater system,
+ At some point it's quite challenging (over 70 deaths druing 90h of gameplay),
+ I haven't try multiplayer yet, but I am sure it's very, very fun (instanced or FFA loot, combat with friends, etc.),
+ Easy, reasonable travel system,
+ Vast locations filled with details and less linear than in most aRPGs,
+ Lots of hidden treasuers, places and secret quests,
+ Possibility to rotate and zoom camera and map,
+ Modding tools with huge possibilites,
+ Class dualism..
+ .. but it would be awesome to add new classes (TQ:IT had 9). However, it's definitely great with 6 various classes at the moment.
+ One of the best price/quality deals,
+ Hardcore mode.

Features I'm neutral about:
* Consistent world - I couldn't feel Cairn division into acts,
* Lack of character customization (only male/female - same as TQ),
* Absence of shrines with buffs (present in TQ), however I think they're not necessary here,
* I have a problem with memorizing locations, NPCs and major bosses names,
* Lack of Polish language,
* After 90h of gameplay my character is at lvl.. 78/85.
* After creating new character it doesn't show up instantly - player must go to options and come back to main menu to see it.

Things I dislike:
- Aetherfire (green flame on the ground) and poison pools are bit overpowered,
- Few animations should be improved (e.g. stonetusks),
- Sometimes vision gets too dark,
- Ocassionaly crashes at alt-tabbing or game exiting.

Incoming first DLC - Crucible - is a hope for a better endgame content with a chance for ranking rivalry and source of loot (hopefully also new).
I believe that future content will make this game one of the best aRPG's of all time (for me it is now).

A must have - not only for aRPG genre lovers!

9,5+/10

Grim Dawn is without a doubt a Diablo clone. Did you like Diablo? You like the Torchlight? You gonna like this. It's like a pizza. You can get pizza anywhere. You can go to the pizza hut, the dominoes, the papa johns, everyone has an opinion about where to go to get the pizza. So you go to the resturante across town, they serve you a pizza. Maybe you like the sauce, maybe no, but it's authentic. The owners own grandma taught him the recipie for his sauce and him and the boys work the kitchen all day. He made you a pizza with all the love and care he can put into his giant italian family. You gonna send that pizza back cause you don't like the sauce? I don't think so. Not unless you wanna be swimming with the fishes, capice?

Buy.

Grim Dawn is one of the best ARPG. You can make a variety of builds like pet army, magic caster, dual blade/gunslinger, or even a tanky afk build. 15 class combinations from 6 bases with over 25 skills per class, excluding lots of skills from devotion system and items.
While finding the right build is hard to decide early, there's a ton of guides or shared characters for testing purpose from Grim Dawn forums (always backup your save files first). Sometimes you'll find a fun build that's yet to discover.
If you like Diablo, PoE, or Torchlight, this game will suits you.

Feels good man.

Clocking in decent hours and enjoying it still like it was a good old Diablo game (first one was the true love in the early days of gaming, maxing all 3 classes multiple time and spending a fortune on dial up fees with modem). This is a game that keeps on giving despite me purchasing it on the very first week of the early access years back.

I play it like a madman for a week or two and give it a good break for month or two and it always feels just as natural to come back to like Diablo series did.

Easy to pick up and hard to let go off, the traits of a good game are showing up here.

Very very good Hack'n Slash, with a nervous gameplay in a victorian fantasy apocalypic world, very deep character customization. If you like Diablo II (no III), Path of Exile or Titan Quest, you'll love Grim Dawn. Warning : time consuming !

Grim Dawn may be a little harder to get into than most hack n' slashes, but it's crafted with an old-school gaming approach coupled with newer solutions found in the latest games.

Rich, dark atmosphere has a surprising amount of depth and choices that impact gameplay. While the storyline isn't that involving (saving the world from invading monster factions and learning why), seeing how the people in-game are affected definitely is. Under all this there's plenty of cleverly hidden lore and hard-to-find secret areas.

Pros:
+Good twist on typical skill tress, where you select two classes and find synergy between them, and decide how deeply you invest into a class
+Devotion is a system of common abilities that can back up the weakness of your character. For example, if you lack survivability, you can go for a number of defensive procs. The shrines for these devotion points are found throughout the world, which encourages exploration
+Very cool bosses, tough dungeons, good enemy variety
+An interesting faction system to make the grind matter a little more
+Powerful legendary items that are rarer than in most ARPGs, making them more prestigious
+After 200 hours, there's still so much to do

Cons
- Netplay experience may vary
- Often doesn't feel rewarding enough. You'll have a very hard time finding legendaries for your build, may have to trade
- Feels grindy. It takes a lot of time to slog through all the difficulties to get to Ultimate, and farming infamy for the enemy factions can be very tedious

With hundreds of build combinations, an expansive world, and the ability to play with friends, Grim Dawn breathes new life into the old-school hack n' slash games. It may feel too grindy at times, but the combat is crisp and satisfying at all times.

Grim Dawn is an excellent addition to the Diablo genre. In fact, I definately prefer this to the Diablo and Torchlight series. The whole thing is very polished and creates an overall really great playing experience. The universe that Grim Dawn is set in is really cool and definately has me and my wife hooked.

For those that are not familiar, games in this genre basically boil down to grinding for XP and better loot. It's very fun. You crush a dungeon and then upgrade your stuff. The underlying premise is that simple.

Pros:
+Great universe with metric tons of lore and personality
+Everything is very high quality - from the music to the artwork to the game balance (which can make-or-break games like these)
+The controller support is awesome
+I love being able to multiclass; it breathes so much more replayability into it
+I love all the graphics settings - I can play it on my gaming rig in all of its splendor, or on my laptop and still get smooth play
+The new DLC is fantastic and even adds more replayability
+The user interface is well done; there is a bit of a learning curve for any game like this, but that curve is definately reduced with the intuitive interface
+Multiplayer is super easy to set up and a lot of fun
+Super cheap for the quality and value

Cons:
-Some of the voice acting is 'meh', but honestly, just the fact that they have voice acting at all is bonus to me
-Yeah it is grindy; all games in this game are

If you are fan of Diablo-esque games, this is a no-brainer. Totally worth full price.
