The game is supposed to be an ominous and foreboding ARPG, and instead I run across BgButzzzz6nine, or I start moving towards some creatures on the other side of my screen, and before I’ve taken two steps some Necromancer and undead horde come buzzsawing through the area like a scythe, and I have to try and find someplace where I can actually kill things. The isolated feel was a key point of the game, and added to the ambiance and feel of the game. Now, I can’t go 2 minutes without getting that immersion ruined by some random intrusion by another player. Is there some way to not be surrounded by other people while playing the game?

    I don’t mind seeing people running around but I’d love an option to turn off nameplates. There’s a rampant amount of I’m 14 and this is funny names and that breaks the immersion for me.

        There is no option to have your own game lobby. Dungeons and campaign quests are all instanced tho so you really only see people on the general map. Though in my experience there’s only a few areas that are heavily populated, almost everything else feels like a ghost town or a solo experience.

      I’m pretty sure there is one? I have it on just to know who is other player, don’t really notice names that much. But I thought there was an option to turn them off.
