...( Description )...
Grim Dawn for PC is a dark mix of action with elements of role-playing game, developed by the Crate Entertainment studio, which includes veterans of Iron Lore, who had previously worked on action role-playing game – Titan Quest.
Story
The story of Grim Dawn throws the player into the middle of a dark, war-torn world of Cairn. This once proud empire has been brought to collapse as a result of the struggle between two powerful forces. Although each of them has different objectives, the rivalry between them proved to be fatal for the human race which has been driven to the verge of extinction.
The underlying conflict between the invaders became a struggle for the human bodies which one of the side use as a resource to grow stronger. The second, in order to prevent this from happening, exterminates the human race so their enemies cannot use the bodies of Cairn residents. The war between the invaders proved to be disastrous for the entire region. The bitter rivalry distorted the structure of reality, bringing to life terrifying monsters. Those who managed to survive the slaughter created small enclaves scattered around. Some of the survivors possessed extraordinary abilities and these give hope to people that with the help of a brave hero they will manage to organize a resistance movement and save what is left of the old Cairn.
Gameplay
The first task faced by the player wanting to face in the fight against the powerful forces of the enemy, is to create a hero. Five character classes are given to our disposal which can be combined to form a hybrid. Each has access to a number of skill trees. During the development of the character, it is possible to reach up to 200 levels of experience, and up to 75 in each class. Each of the general levels provides three points to spend on character improvement that can be assigned to either class levels or to raise the issue of values based on skills. It is a quite interesting solution, because it requires to choose between development of the class, which provides higher attributes, more health and mana, and unique combat skills without which the chances of winning battles considerably decrease.
Each character is described using three attributes: cunning, body, and spirit. This is a classic division of a higher chance to hit / critical hit, a larger number of points of life / chance to dodge, and a greater amount of magical energy / higher magic damage. In addition to the previously mentioned attributes rising by advancing in character classes, each general level provides the opportunity to raise one of them by a few points. This system, although simplified, works pretty well and is intuitive.
Collecting items is also an important part of the game, some of which can be modified and combined (crafting) to create new ones. There are four types of objects: ordinary, very common (yellow), readily available (green), and rare (blue). Of course, the more difficult to find or acquire the item, the better statistics and a greater number of special abilities it has. What is interesting, at the very beginning of the game a lot of enemies drop yellow items and not just tons of metal junk worth next to nothing.
Technology
Graphics-wise Grim Dawn on PC looks similar to its predecessor, as it uses an improved Iron Lore engine, the same one that was used to create Titan Quest. The developers have perfected the looks of the areas, however, and made it possible for the players to use the camera rotation function which increases the feeling of spaciousness and three-dimensionality of the world.
Game modes
In addition to single player mode with expanded storyline, the game also features a multiplayer mode in which the emphasis is put on teamwork.

V1.0.6.0
[Major New Features]
A great beast stirs within the waters of Ugdenbog. Worshiped by the local Slith as a god, it yearns for fleshy sacrifices. Seek out Kra'vall the Ancient of the Waters within central Ugdenbog if you dare and earn new Monster Infrequents exclusive to this powerful foe.
The introduction of new factions with the upcoming Forgotten Gods expansion necessitated some minor changes to the save format. As such, characters loaded in v1.0.6.0 are not compatible with earlier versions of the game.
Three new Legendary quality sets have been added to the loot pool: Radaggan's Folly, Rimetongue and The Blood Knight. These 4-piece sets open up new ways to build your characters. Good luck on the loot hunt!
Item Level Requirements have been removed from the Illusionist. You may now apply illusions on an item regardless of what level the illusion is (ex. make a level 1 character's gear look like a level 94's gear).
Nemesis bosses are now marked on the minimap with a skull icon when they are near.
[Crucible]
Increased Tributes earned for ending the Crucible at Wave 160 and 170.
Adjusted number of non-boss enemies spawned in the 151-170 range.
Reduced effectiveness of % Physical Resist Reduction debuffs applied by Ashes of Malmouth enemies.
With a few exceptions, reduced the effectiveness of Fumble effects applied by monsters in the Crucible by upwards of 50%.
Increased monster penalty to Crowd Control Effects by an additional 15% (to 40%). Previously, monster crowd control effect duration was reduced by 25%. (This is a buff to players)
Removed bonus to Crowd Control Resists for monsters that scaled with Wave #.
Nemesis boss damage reduced by 4% for base game Nemesis bosses and 7% for Ashes of Malmouth Nemesis Bosses.
Increased monster health by ~0-4%, scaling up with Wave #.
Increased monster health scaling with number of players by up to 15%. Solo play health values remain unchanged except for the abovementioned health increase.
Significantly increased the attack rate and damage of all Beacons.
Deathchill Beacon now also reduces enemy Offensive Ability for 5s with its attacks. The potency of this effect increases with upgrades.
Inferno Beacon now also reduces enemy % Damage for 5s with its basic attack. Previously only the Fire Storm reduced damage. The potency of this effect increases with upgrades.
Stormcaller Beacon's Defensive Ability and Total Resist Reduction effects now last 5s, up from 3s. Increased the potency of the Resist Reduction effect to 25/30/33 from 20/25/30.
Stonewall Banner now also increases Defensive Ability by 50 (100 when fully upgraded).
Vanguard Banner now also increases Offensive Ability by 50 (100 when fully upgraded). Increased the % All Speed granted by the Frenzy buff to 35%, up from 20%.
Improved effectiveness of all Celestial Blessings for pets even if pets are resummoned, with an additional bonus from the initial cast of the blessing if you keep the pets alive.
Blessing of Ulo now also boosts resistances against all damage types by 25% (8% to Physical).
Empyrion's Guidance now increases Health by 80%, up from 60%
Might of Amatok now modifies damage by 33%, up from 30%, and is more effective for pets by applying an additional % damage modifier instead of the % All damage bonus pets received. This will no longer appear in the character sheet, but is much more potent.
Ulzuin's Pact now boosts Offensive and Defensive Ability by 30 + 5% and reduces Skill Energy Costs by 25%, up from 20%, but no longer reduces cooldowns.
[Art]
All head gear now correctly displays a shadow when equipped.
[Tech]
Fixed an issue where non-English translations of the game would not display genderization formatting correctly in the Quest Log.
[Game]
The Probability to Hit Formula (PTH) has been adjusted. It is now capped at a minimum of 60%, meaning that excessively high Defensive Ability values can no longer reduce an opponent's chance to hit below 60%. This change applies to both monsters and players, but will have little impact outside of the high-end gameplay in the hardest waves of the Crucible or hunting super bosses.
Adjusted Boss Damage Resistance distribution. A disproportionate number of bosses had baseline resistances to Physical and Pierce damage compared to other damage types. Several of those instances have been adjusted in favor of diversifying the damage bosses are resistant to.
Fixed an issue that caused certain doors to sometimes become stuck despite being visually open.
Fixed an issue where chests would sometimes drop lower level items than intended.
[Itemization]
Added Inquisitor and Necromancer skill bonuses to more of the level 50-75 Legendary items with Mythical versions that already support these classes in order to provide additional options while levelling.
