Why is the biggest "best" arpg the worst?

visually d4 is pretty legit…

but under the hood its just a trash mobile game.

big flashy screens of numbers

boring builds

boring loot

endless material grinds

of all the arpgs… why does the one with the biggest budget and largest crew… why did d4 have to jump the shark?

the only hype this game gets is from streamers who get paid to hype whatever garbage they are hocking.

Poor hiring practices.

I hope that POE2 is a real arpg game. Keep D4 or POE1 for bots and no-lifers.

that is ok. there are many many games for you to pick from. Its important that you spend your time doing things you like.

as i saw earlier, highest player number on steam ever right now. But yea, different strokes for different folks.

Well… “real” is probable enough. A giant spiderweb passive tree might scare off most people. Also, I don’t think we know what its economy will look like yet.

Otherwise, poe2 will be ”slow” & “difficult” - which isn’t necessarily a problem.

Important to OP’s health & well-being, right? That’s so sweet and genuine.

Everyone’s salvation right now seems to lean towards poe2. I can reassure you guys, if you think d4 is difficulty, poe2 will ram you way harder than anything in this game. Some of y’all are just bad at games :joy:

I don’t think anyone suggested d4 is too “difficult” in this thread yet.

well, yes. else youll end up bitter and salty. rings a bell right?

No idea what you’re saying. Just cool to see you’re looking out for people’s health because it makes you happy. It’s sweet.

Slightly above average I’d say

Models are still way too D3 cartoony

You forget that POE has tencent money. Arguably MUCH larger budget potential than blizzard

Honestly, this isn’t said enough.

Poe 2 looks so slow in every trailer. I don’t see how y’all like that gameplay unless you’re just old

No, it’s probably said too much, given that it’s vacuous & pointless. Nobody has yet claimed d4 is too difficult in this thread, as far as I can tell.

I’m old school but I can’t stand slow pace… couldn’t get into Lost Ark for this reason, and most souls games are an instant turn-off bc of excruciatingly slow combat animations.

But eh… a top-down arpg… I’ll give it a try. Doesn’t seem too slow. I’m more worried about a convoluted economy.

Also Blizz went woke and a lot of good people bailed when the culture changed.

You got a link? (& I assume you mean staff?)

You forgot biggest player base… so they must be doing something right :wink:
