    PoE was designed for hardcore ARPGers. GGG is making strides in PoE2 EA to appeal more to casual gamers, but its DNA will always remain hardcore. By contrast, D4 was clearly designed for casuals. Not making any moral judgment as to which game is better, just different strokes for different folks!

    While I disagree on a lot of the points, I'll say this- PoE titles are not meant for everyone (the devs admit this). And that's fine, just as it's fine for it not to be someone's cup of tea. I will say that it's likely that this is as hard as PoE II will ever be, at least in the campaign, because it's a lot easier to dial things back than it is to ramp them up, from the developer's perspective. A few quick patches so far indicate that this is the approach GGG is taking. A few tips if you decide to get back into PoE II: 1) Try out different classes- I started sorceress and while it's a capable class and I love casters, it just didn't sit well with me. I got about halfway through Act 3 and decided to make a Monk- what a difference that has made in terms of my enjoyment of the game. Now i'm almost done with Act 2 Cruel. Also, most classes don't really come online, in terms of the power curve, until about level 40 or so- the more potent skill gems and ability to get deeper into the passive tree are mostly restricted until then. Sure, there can be strong characters before 40, but that's more of a gear thing or stumbling into a happy accident with the build. 2) I've used the trade feature once- it was fine, but I am not a fan of the system due to the number of steps involved. You have to bring up a webpage, find an item, DM the person through the web portal, join party, meet somewhere, trade, then finishing out the deal. I've found that meticulous looting hording that results in selling and disenchanting/salvaging for materials has been a reliable pathway to quality items for my own character. Also, every time you level the vendors get a new set of items- check these every time you level. You can even go back to prior acts. You'd be surprised what you can find, including cheap items to salvage for materials to craft up decent stuff you have sitting in your stash. 3) Find a guild or make one with a friend (or two) that play. Get a guild stash tab and just share loot. My friend and I just dump whatever the other person could use in guild stash tabs. There's no trade shenanigans or hoops to jump through. We just have a gentleman's agreement not to get greedy with one another's finds, share what we find, and if something is sitting there for too long we're free to salvage it and put the materials in the guild stash to supplement one of our crafting sessions if our individual stashes lack the materials.

    I get what you are saying and you have valid points from your perspective. I played Diablo 2, Titan Quest, Grim Dawn, Poe1, Torchlight 1 and 2. Diablo 4 doesn't cut it for me, it's a big disappointment. I finished the story with the sorcerer and after I tried playing the other classes and I stopped after lvl 25. The talent tress are bare bones, after you unlock your "ultimate" you have nothing else to look forward to. Then the shared open world, the quest design the so called "random generated dungeons" feel more akin to a an mmo like wow then an arpg like diablo and with the lack of real rogue like dungeon crawling the game has no replay value for me. While PoE2 redesigned some of it's over complicated stuff from PoE1 and kept the customization, the depth that I enjoy. D4 came out with 5 classes while Poe2 has started early access with 6 and will have 12 on launch. Any class can use any skill as long as they have required weapon equipped and while the talent tree seems intimidating, it's that big because it's the skill passive tree of all the classes combined on one page and every class has access to the page, it just differs the place you start building from.

      I agree with you on D4. Endgame is non-existant. Blizz still won't give us leaderboards, which we had in D3. But what D4 gives, is a really good game for casuals - very easy, you can try multiple builds and characters because it's easy to level and gear. And at the same time it has some challenges, like farming mythic or reaching T4 or Pit 100. Yes, for blasters those are not the challenges and this is what Blizz should fix.

    "I want a smooth and nice experience out of the box" -> buys beta version of poe2 that still has a year of development to go before it releases, then complains it's not a smooth experience. As for the rest, I don't think I disagree with anything you said, most of it is an accurate description. However I have a pretty opposite value system, I mainly play games that are in some way hard/stressful/challenging, that's kind of the point for me, I don't play them to "relax". I mean I don't ever relax really, that's what sleep is for. POE2 is, for me, pretty chill, it certainly has balance issues in it's current beta state, but I've been enjoying it. I like every change they have made to the game vs poe1. It's more SSF friendly, the skills have a bunch of cool interactions, they cut out the high cost of respecing, the combat is still pretty smooth brain but at least there's *something* to it. From what I've heard I don't think D3 is a bad game, and it's probably a much better game for many people for many of the reasons you spelled out, and also why I'd likely hate it.

Why am i not playing HCSSF ruthless?, cause the gameplay has become boring AF, it's not about the difficulty. That's also why you're here commenting , instead of playing it.The only reason peoples have been playing leagues for more than 2 weeks for the past 1-1.5 years. Is because GGG is showering you with divines and mirrors. Not because the gameplay is engaging or even fun.. The only i am asking, is 1, only 1, ARPG that isn't a diablo-like. Exactly like THEY advertise. It's not about me being a harcore no-life gamer, it's about having something different. But i guess you don't get that, or you're just jealous casue you don't have a new toy too. Edit: There's alos a massive difference between losing your entire character, and 1 map, when you die.

What did they add in settlers for end-game ? free mirrors, and 1 boss fight and gameplay that plays by itself (speaking about not having control), WOW. And poe 2 campaign was a total blast, did it 3 times already, it's the only poe 2 part of the game for now. Struggle a bit on my first character, in SSF, farmed in a few zone for mats or xp, just like we used to do,in the docks, dried lake or blood aqueduct. Boss fight where absolutly epic. While i can agree that the way the zone are designed, makes the campaign a bit tedious. They already have added checkpoints teleportation, and more improvments are coming. Once we learn layouts and stuff, shouldn't take much longer than poe 1, peoples are already down to roughly 9 hours, while it took me 14ish for my last characters.

    Path of Exile (and challenging games like it) should be approached iteratively for less experienced and more casual gamers. There's nothing wrong with starting over and incorporating what you've learned with each iteration. You'll find the game suddenly becomes a lot less challenging and a lot more interesting, too. I'm not saying to give up at the first sign of a difficult trial or deadly boss -- approach those iteratively as well. I'm saying that you should treat the game as a constant learning process that improves your gamer skills and your experiential knowledge of the game with each new attempt. Try it!

    I wouldn't say that most of the things that you say in this video, weren't true, but some point you said, that the game feels slow, and you want to have faster build like in the end game? but then before that you said that you came from strategy games, how many strategy game do you start with everything in the game, for example, Starcraft you start with 4 Svc's and home base, not with 100 cap unit limit from the start. - PoE2 isn't for everyone for sure, but it is a theory crafter's dream, cause there is so much to taking in consideration, and all the mechanics can be tweaked. PoE2 may not be for casual players for sure. Another thing you said, was "I don't like interaction with other players" - well in D4 you more than often have to interact with other players for example Helltides or other overworld encounters, towns etc. In PoE2 you mainly have to interact with other players is in towns or with trading but you can always play solo self found. But we have saying in Finland "Mielelipiteet ovat kuin persereijät! - Jokaisella on omansa!" translated to Enlish "Opinions are like Gloryholes - Everyone have their own!"

But not sure it worth comparing, I can drive both - skoda and ferrari, depends on the situation. Same with people - yes there are a lot of them in helltide, but I see them like NPC - I don't actually interact. I hate actual interactions - like group play, trade, etc. BTW, if you want to have almost full SSF in D4 - go hardcore now. I tried for some time - in 20 hours I met 2 (TWO) people on the map :D

So if andy/dury have the same 3-4% ish chance to drop a mythic unique. on T1 it'll be less amt of drops. and T4 if able to farm there. will average out to more mythics rather quickly just from the raw math while runes are heavily RNG trading them with people is super easy. use the trade websites, or even trade chat. often can direct swap runes. Or sell other runes to have the gold to outright buy them. decent quality ladder/reg uniques can also be sold for decent gold amts. and any max affix gear for common builds will sell for tons of gold. making crafting mythic uniques one of the better direct sources of uniques.
