Hellgate London was such fun, unique hybrid twist on ARPG and looter shooter, I was sad when I heard it was shutdown.
I woulda played it more if I had known it was about to be shutdown. There were some crash bugs and sudden difficulty spikes that made me quit, thinking Id come back to it later. That later never happened.
Yeah it’s a shame the official multiplayer didn’t last long. There’s some fan projects with that but none of them scratched the same itch for me.
There were a few patches for the game and they’re still available, but the difficulty spikes are still there, it gets grindy in the last couple sections of the game.
All I remember from that was the insanely cool art/concept and memory leaks. Did they fix the memory leaks or do we all just have enough RAM for it to not matter?
Me being in love with Hellgate: London, Fate (WildTangent), and Warframe be like

Oh man, Hellgate: London. That’s a blast from the past.
I still fire it up from time to time, runs great for me
Did you buy it from steam or you still own a CD copy?
I have the collectors edition on DVD, you put in a retail key and boom, installs super quick on modern machines

I never had the memory leak issue, but it can use a bit over 1 GB of RAM for me at peak, which nowadays isn’t that much.
