Honestly it looks like refactored path of exile for console

Some of the stuff looks cool but is already in the original

Looks like a downgrade in every aspect imo

Looks good to me, a friend gifted me an early access code so im going to play on dec 6th.
Though they are planning to continue and update poe1 separately as they have been so no real loss.

Very excited, they put a ton of work into making this a real game in early access

Think it’s gonna be really fun in about 1.5 yrs

also check in ur account to see if you get a free key
ill prob still snag the big boy supporter pack at some point in the next few months tho

i could never get into poe just due to the massive phd worth of shit to learn just to play the game

hopefully this one is more accesible

Hopefully it isnt actually

Diablo 4 is thattaway

In all serious wasd movement is so horribly bad and a clear console feature

You just start playing the game and slowly learn systems

It really ain’t that complicated

idk i found it overwhelming and also this was like 2018

just never had enough motivation i guess

i learned stellaris which is like the most complicated 4x game on the market, but thats because im more interested in spaceships and strategy games and stuff

if it seems legit and is well received i'll put some real effort into learning it, seems like a shame not to give it a chance (poe2)

why? ive heard multiple people complain of RSI wrist issues from playing poe specifically

wasd seems like an obvious improvement, why is it not? also doesn't that free you up to spend more time aiming your ranged spells instead of moving w. your mouse?

obviously you're the local poe expert so i'm genuinely curious why it's bad

yea its fine to not want to play a game
but with poe people always find so many reasons not to play when they like other arpgs
and poe is just another arpg where u get loot and zoom

I pretty much only play 1 button zoomy full map clear builds and barely pay attention to like half the mechanics or gameplay loops cuz I cant be bothered

theres just so damn much of it and i feel like i can't play unless i know it all

I tried it back in probably 2015 maybe and didn’t like how there wasn’t a spell tree and you used like socketed items and gems for skills

The skill tree was pretty much all passive buffs iirc

Nothing beats Diablo 2 as far as arpgs go, if you want to play an ARPG for longer then like 40 hours just play Diablo 2

it was approachable on release, is what i've heard. then they just added soooooooo much shit, which is great, for everyone except new blood. basically the same situation as dota. it's just gotten way more complex since launch, where as poe2 will be DESIGNED to be started and learned and played first in that state.
