    Try the game Deathtrap, based around the Tower Defense quests in The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing.  It's lots of fun (IMHO)

    The Dungeon Defenders series as well as Orcs Must Die series are kinda ARPGs set permanently in Tower Defense Mode, too, although they're third-person perspective.

    It's a combination that works well and I'm happy Path of Exile is giving its take on it.

    Rather I enjoy this seasons mechanics or not, I always enjoy starting a fresh character and stash. Maybe this season I will finally take down that damn Uber Atziri

    This game is mostly single player right? This just looks like a disaster on my screen trying to play with a friend.

    Totems had glory for at least a couple years.

    It has "Self Fund" mode if you want to play it single player. But it is online and multiplayer and it works fine.

    You just need a loot filter in endgame or your screen will be a mess



    It just looks insane with the more players you have with you.

    The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing did tower defense years ago. Just something else you might want to check out sometime.

    Deathtrap, from the same devs, is a full aRPG/Tower Defense game aswell.

    I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy every minute of it.

    Tower defence in my favourite ARPG; hell yeah! Looking forward to this one, do think it's going to be a hard one to pull off successfully, fast action builds have been the meta for ages, micromanaging towers on top of that could be a frustrating pain, especially in higher tier end game maps.

    Love the ability incoming to build up master quests, been so many leagues now and end game bloat was getting to be annoying when it interrupted your flow. A fantastic QoL update.

    Minion Masters going to be the new meta? Enjoyed following the trend with the Cyclone meta this league, but thinking a Caustic Arrow build could work well poisoning lanes in Blight?

    Great looking update, bye bye life again
