Nov. 2024

Since when was Hero Siege a Diablo knock off? Is this the first time in the gaming industry that a moderately well-liked game has literally had its core mechanics and actual game genre changed so completely to become something different through a series of updates? Maybe there are other examples where this has happened. Admittedly I came back to Hero Siege quite some years after playing it a lot the first time around when it was an enjoyable, goofy but addictive wave-based action-survival game. Now it is literally Diablo. But I love ARPGs, and I am finding a lot to enjoy in this Hero Siege Mk II. Why did the developers go this route? Why not release a knock-off from Hero Siege that will satisfy ARPG fans, but leave the original intact? You'd please fans of the original, and maybe get some new customers who might not have purchased the original but love ARPGs and went for the new one. Then those new customers may also have been inclined to buy the original wave-based survival game. The original "Hero Siege" didn't need any new content or updates and didn't really need to be further supported, it is now basically a ten-year old game, and I don't think many gamers would expect updates for a product that old. The new ARPG version - let's call it "Hero Looter" - could receive the most attention from the developers, obviously, but you're not upsetting your existing fanbase of the original. Yes I know you can roll back the game to its original roots, but it's just strange how this one product has mutated over time instead of receiving if not a direct sequel, then a spinoff, like what those Steamworld games do. Unfortunately the predatory tactics used by the developer in wringing a few extra bucks out of fans is pretty shameless and despicable - want new characters, new missions, new skins, extra storage space? Give us those $$$ for every little microtransaction, suckers. But you don't need any of the extras to enjoy the base game. It's obviously not as polished as a Blizzard effort, but this is a nice ARPG distraction from that landmark series as well as stuff like Grim Dawn, Last Epoch and Path of Exile. It's a bit janky, but there's lots to like here. It actually feels more like Chronicon than anything. So this gets a thumbs up. A confused, baffled thumbs up.

This game is way underrated. I can see the micro transaction hate though. It follows the PoE model where you buy stash tabs and cosmetics so it isnt P2W. In addition the character unlocks are more so DLC based transactions. They could bundle them by type and just make it more attractive. For the game itself, it plays like d2 LOD. Synergy style skill tree and you generally fully level up around late Nightmare mode/ Early hell. Lots of end game progression. With a more player base it could be great with future seasons. if you like D2 or project D2 or PoE. Its worth a shot. Each class is hyper focused with 2 trees. lots of fun.

The monetisation in this game is terrible, most classes are locked until purchased, but decent content and a bunch of character choices for the base price of game. Most of the negative comments are due to this game having been changed from what it used to be into essentially a blatant copy of Diablo 2. Many items, skills, locations, enemies, systems, etc. are identical (often even with same or similar names). The positive reviews all seem to come either from people who didn't care about this change (they liked D2) or started playing after it. Essentially if you like D2 you will also enjoy this game - buy accordingly. My only real complaint has been not enough people seem to be playing this game, hence items on the trading post are often too few and overpriced since players can't be sure what they're actually worth without price competition / comparison from other players listing the same items. Also, info on wikis seems often non-existent or not updated. I saw someone else link a google doc spreadsheet manual from the devs which has been invaluable: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1zvrZXNpJVm-yDMcnSJ85HDSsODHEjhi4V-iJTANqKHk/edit?pli=1#gid=2063119222 Overall, I think this game really deserves a higher review rating, as it is a solid, fun game (albeit a pretty blatant copy of D2).

March 2024

5 days ago I had 2 hours in this game and played it many years ago when it was a wave clearer. Now I am almost 50 hours in and fully hooked. Very fun arpg with a lot of systems that work well together to create extra challenges and upgrade your character more and more to face them proper. All the dlc seems a bit shocking at first but it's a lot of skins, extra classes on top of all the free ones already in, an additional act and stash+inventory tabs. Nothing too outragous and seems to be frequent on sale. Also can be played offline just fine but has online if wanted.
