Okay, ich habe GD bis heute nicht einmal durchgespielt, wird einfach irgenwann viel zu schwer für mich! Deswegen hab ich bisher auch keinen DLC gekauft.

Da sind ja ein paar schöne Neuerungen im Patch 1.4: https://forums.crateentertainment.co...1-3-0-0/155979

Major New Features:

• Grim Dawn has received back-end changes to accommodate the release of the Fangs of Asterkarn Expansion.
• The game’s UI has received a complete visual overhaul. A new Health Orb design HUD is now the default, while the classic Health Bar design can be enabled in the game options, under Interface.
• The Stash has been overhauled with new dedicated Component and Crafting Materials shared pages and +5% additional space per tab. In addition, stash pages can now be customized and labeled.
• New functionality has been added to the player inventory to instantly deposit all Components and Crafting Materials in their shared tabs from anywhere in the world. To support this, objects that ask for crafting materials (ex. Treasure Troves), can now also access the stash instead of just the inventory.
• New accessibility control schemes have been added under Keybindings: Keyboard Movement and Keyboard Only, enabling WASD-based controls with and without the mouse. You can set keybinds for WASD movement independently of the default controls and switch between them at any time. WASD controls mimic the controller and do not enable run and gun gameplay.
• Detailed tooltips now display stat roll ranges (ex. 12 Fire damage [8-14] indicates that the damage could have rolled as low as 8 or as high as 14).
• A new Video Option has been added: HDR Lighting, as an alternate visual style for the game.
• Monster Infrequents now always drop at the highest possible level (ex. if an MI drops, and possible variations in your level range are level 84 and 94, it will always drop the level 94 version).

Man muss den Hut vor Crate Entertainment ziehen, dass sie einen so massiven DLC zum Start auch noch mit 10% Rabatt anbieten. 17,35 € ist schon ein sehr guter Preis, wenn man das z. B. mal mit den DLC-Preisen bei Paradox vergleicht.

Die neuen Tabs für Komponenten sind eine gute Idee. Klasse ist auch, dass man von überall seine Komponenten in diese Tabs transferieren kann. Zusätzlich zu dem leicht vergrößerten Inventar hat man dadurch deutlich mehr Platz.
