Expectations are low but I’ll definitely hop on D4 today and try it out. I’ve been playing PoE almost exclusively since it came out so I’m looking forward to the change of scenery
I played D4 since release and stopped after 2 months into the expansion. Currently playing POE2. Both games are good, but I think Blizzard is low balling their stuff too much. Armory 18 months after release is ridiculous. 1 new skill per class since release is very little. They need to start pumping new content asap!
The Armory is one of the features that had mixed reactions when they released way back in D3. Some players said that the Armory kills personal attachment to the character/build or whatever. This is with regards to comparing to D2. In D2, you create character per build and each character would have unique playthrough. However, with the introduction of the Armory, this removes that kind of feeling because you can only have 1 character that can be fitted with multiple builds. For me, I like the Armory because it is convenient and you can try multiple setup without pouring tons of hours to it.
@@RascalCatify For all intents and purposes of comparison to D4, POE2 can be considered as "released", since it's already more vast and infinitely deeper than D4 after 18 months.

Looking forward to new D4 class at some point. Spiritborn was crazy fun. I tried PoE2 3 different times and got bored everytime after a couple hours, trying to like it but just cant.
So do you think POE2 will have an armory on launch? I'd be curious if you call out ggg if they don't. I'd honestly say D4 is winning me over currently over poe2 but that's because I've played poe2 and there isn't much there and a lot of what little is there is almost a direct copy from poe1 but worse.
I have been playing both games and participating in group/community. But PoE2 community is toxic. It is sad. Some toxic PoE players shit on D4 about how ez the game was. Yet, they were crybabies about how hard PoE2 campaign was. It is pathetic
Dumb. PoE players were complaining about lack of gear upgrade opportunities not the difficulty. Also that PoE2 was a little too punishing; and punishing =/= difficulty.

I don’t hear anybody saying poe 2 is flawless. I think people are probably just upset with blizzard and how they handle their games so they are inherently toxic towards them. However Poe2 in beta is way more complete of a game than d4 in its current state and thats kinda pathetic considering how much money d4 made them.
People are quick to forget how much the diablo """community""" did the exact same thing on PoE dev streams and reveals. Both are complicit in this, but personally, I feel blizzard deserves it
PoE2 is way behind. They refuse to learn from their mistakes from poe1. Lacking classes, weapons, gems, refusing major balance changes that are needed while hiding through an excuse of a "new league". Said they fixed melee, warrior is generally horrible. They just broken totems and summons with their latest patch. Running campaign is a different experence than mapping where it turns back into 1 button screen wipes and gearing till you can 1 shot bosses cause they will 1 shot you back. PoE2 is paid dlc that they don't even want to fix properly.
You said it perfectly. I hope Blizzard gets it together. When they are proud of features being added in for season 7 that should have been in from the start, it feels like an issue. D4 has real competition now, and all their discussions should be on how to pull people from poe2 to D4. If this is what they came up with....i got nothing. I might pick it up for a day or 2, then back to poe2.
There are maybe 10 solid ARPGs we can enjoy rn, and over half of them are more than 10 years old. Nobody wants to see the newer ones do poorly. Keep supporting what you like, man.
POE2 is just a much better game, but it has a lot of things wrong with it too which is why I stopped playing for now and going to return to D4 for a while. Did u atleast try POE2 btw? Even for 30 dollars it's really fun atleast in the campaign.
Hey Raxx, what do you think, will Twisting Blade poison Rogue will be a thing this season? i had so much fun with it in season 1. Also what do you think Shako is better or Andariel for this build?
Yeah I'm burnt out on Poe2. Also, I think I'm done unless they remove the XP loss on death. I have one of every character at 70-75 and it's too punishing to go on. It feels like GGG just wants to waste my time.
Talking about GGG wanting to waste your time on a video about diablo 4 (Activision blizzard microsoft corporate greed vs indie devs making the best game they can possibly envision) Skill/build issue, maybe spec more into life, defenses and resists if you are dying?
Druid Shred's followup attacks need to get the "Core skill" tag and use Spirit. It no longer has the massive Spirit problems from a year ago. This blocks a lot of interactions
I like PoE2 but I think it's overhyped. Diablo 4 has so much more distinct class identity between the classes. They all feel very different. In PoE it all kind of feels the same with some exceptions like....Infernalist Witch.
You haven’t played enough then… chronomancer is very different as well as blood mage, gemling legionarie, pathfinder poison ranger, deadeye ranger, infernalist witch, etc… there are going to be 36 different subclasses that can use any weapon and slot any skill their attribute and weapon/ weapon swapping will allow. All 6 classes in D4 might be very different to other classes but your build for one warrior is almost cookie cutter to another. Class diversity may be good but build diversity sucks ahh
The only thing that I find mildly interesting about D4S7 is the potential to build a FoF Andariels wolf pack druid (since lucky hit proccs will now apply to minions/companions). But honestly I can't put myself through another few dozen hours of this gameplay to get to a place where I can make that build.
@joshwent I think it should as it didn't start with the same philosophy as d3 they wanted it to be more like path in that your choices matter. I think knocking D4 for this but not POE is a bit strange. It's never something D2 would implement and ppl would claim that to be superior.
It's not in poe because there is no need for an armory. There is no build swapping, there are not gear sets. If you have a magic find character, you are specifically magic finding. If you have a bossing character, you are specifically bossing. You don't mix the two. (ignorjng the mf on gear debate) The closest this gets is swapping gems for bosses which you can do on the fly and going to town to change it literally just adds loading screens.
I played the fuck out of D4 from the start an had fun. No hate. Now I'm playing POE2 and having a fucking blast. Im gratefull for both, but I dont have any desire to go back to D4...maybe ever. Maybe a bad analogy would be I had a pet hamster (D4) and then I got a dog (POE2) Appreciate all the hours spent learning from your vids.
Diablo 4 is a casual ARPG and there is nothing wrong with this. Considering the time I've clocked and even if I have no plans playing it in the forseen future ,I'd say it worth the money I spent.
Blizzard is so terrified to have parts of the game that only a portion of the player base can get through that I'm not sure they will ever add the kind of content blasters want. They are afraid of adding anything that would be considered an achievement.n
D4 has a lot of the same issues D3 had, a lifeless skill system, very little deterministic crafting, and a boring endgame. I spent thousands of hours grinding D3, I prayed D4 was going to bring the change. Still waiting.
D3 skill system was arguably better, at least the runes you would get just from leveling would actually alter your skills then legendaries/sets on top of it would make some wild combos
the gear sets are WAY better in D3. D4 is just over-complicated & schizophrenic when it comes to gear. the D3 paragon scaling system is perfect, the GR scaling is perfect.
I dont know how these type of changes are acceptable to be done over 3 months. Regardless of what other studios manage or do, D4, flagship game, 5000 or so ppl on staff and there are so few changes, not to even speak of Endgame development. I played every season before for about 50-100 hours each, but I just dont find it interesting to login, grind paragon mindlessly in pits with no flavor and uber bosses with zero challenge. The difference in how Paragon levels and POE2 char levels are designed says it all for me - in POE2 I honestly couldnt even tell how I got to almost level 90. As a player you are constantly engaged - what orb dropped, what map affixes, what events are up on the map, making choices in those events, etc. In D4, I grind pits.
U literally repeated Maps 4x lmao Maps.. vs Pits.. Maps are an absolute sham and a waste of time - 1 portal per waystone MEH And you really think a copy+pasted passive tree identical across all classes is better than unique paragon boards?? Smh
@@mjackels1377you missed the point - yes, poe2 is focused on maps, but the maps have a large variety such as monsters, events, additional bosses, etc. I also get to build the map, choosing and modifying thr challenges. Compared to pits which have nothing remarkable in them except 2 floors of monsters in narrow corridors. Maps also drop like 10 different type of items and are interconnected with many other systems. There will always be cookiecutter builds, but saying d4 paragon board is unique tells me you are just trolling.
@ def not trolling.. Maps are extremely basic and unfun.. literally they are dumbed down dungeons with no bosses and the cost/reward just isn’t worth the time.. u get one shot and if u fail u get such a penalty that its just not worth it. You y really think they’re more diverse by putting in some modifiers? Lmao keep telling yourself that buddy.. There needs to be more stuff to do in PoE2 to hold anyone’s interests or to even make it replayable.. no one wants to do the same campaign over and over and over again, and Maps as the only endgame activity is horribly repetitive. Pits are not the only endgame in D4.. after the campaign you can do many many things.. Nightmare dungeons, World Bosses, Torment Bosses, Helltides, Tree of Whispers, Infernal Hordes, Realmwalkers and Seething realms, Dark Citadel, Undercity, Side quests, etc.. Why do you think Pits is the only endgame? Loll “just tells me you’re trolling”
Did they just give up on the idea of leader boards? It's the lowest hanging fruit that gives you a reason to keep gearing and paragon levelling, but they aren't doing it. It's genuinely crazy to me.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I've moved over from POE2 to D4, and these types of videos are extremely helpful. The sheer lack of content and really odd design choices over at GGG has killed POE2 for me. I hope other content creators aren't quitting D4 content for POE2. Unpopular opinion, so far, I think D4 really blows POE2 out of the water. I just started so I am unaware of previous controversy and battles fought/won/lost but I can tell it's still the better game from what I can see right now.
> I hope other content creators aren't quitting D4 content for POE2 no need to worry, ccs go wherever the views are. currently its at poe2, but over time, as the novelty falls off for most people and they start looking for exciting updates, they will also quickly realize that ggg is very much antifun and spread over to other games, and the ccs will follow.
@@ryanb9305 I have 6 maxed out characters in POE2 and I can tell you that's not even remotely true. I believe the majority of the stuff in POE2 just doesn't work or hasn't been fully implemented.. Half the skills and passives are for weapons that aren't in the game yet

Seems like Diablo 4 is moving in the right direction, compared to the past seasons. Some were chaos and some was perfect. Glad to see good changes
Hey Raxx, what do you think, will Twisting Blade poison Rogue will be a thing this season? i had so much fun with it in season 1. Also what do you think Shako is better or Andariel for this build?
Andariel hasn’t been good since start of season 6, so unless they updated that specific unique uhmmmmm don’t wear it.
@@joshuathayer7777 sure ty, still it has amazing stats tho, Andariel seems the best until i get Shako,
Yeah I'm burnt out on Poe2. Also, I think I'm done unless they remove the XP loss on death. I have one of every character at 70-75 and it's too punishing to go on. It feels like GGG just wants to waste my time.
Get better at the game. It is a skill issue.
@@Moritz.Langenso this is a sport then? 🥴
@@Moritz.Langen Are you a millionaire? If not I am assuming it's a skill issue. Get better at life?
@@Moritz.Langen yeah bro keep playing a game you aren't enjoying, your lack of fun is a skill issue 🤦♂
Talking about GGG wanting to waste your time on a video about diablo 4 (Activision blizzard microsoft corporate greed vs indie devs making the best game they can possibly envision)
Skill/build issue, maybe spec more into life, defenses and resists if you are dying?
Druid Shred's followup attacks need to get the "Core skill" tag and use Spirit. It no longer has the massive Spirit problems from a year ago. This blocks a lot of interactions
Ill come back to d4 when they have some actual end game content. Til then its poe 1 and 2 and LE when the new season starts in 2029
So D5 then (maybe)? 😂
Last Epoch endgame 😂 you're a funny guy.
@@artemkoropotkin3047PoE2 doesn't really have an endgame either. It was a copypasta from PoE with less excitement & reward
yes. there is no endgame. don't come back plz
As opposed to POE2's very very lacking endgame currently?
Not even a new Hordes map. It's THE SAME MAP.
Well, that's it boys.
If SB is still thousands of times stronger than the rest of the classes, I won't even touch this season.
it will be. how else are they gonna sell the DLC?
SB isn't even Rank A in most Tier lists and I haven't seen a single List with SB at rank S.
Pretty good update but with everyone burnt out / done caring is it too late?
I like PoE2 but I think it's overhyped. Diablo 4 has so much more distinct class identity between the classes. They all feel very different. In PoE it all kind of feels the same with some exceptions like....Infernalist Witch.
You haven’t played enough then… chronomancer is very different as well as blood mage, gemling legionarie, pathfinder poison ranger, deadeye ranger, infernalist witch, etc… there are going to be 36 different subclasses that can use any weapon and slot any skill their attribute and weapon/ weapon swapping will allow. All 6 classes in D4 might be very different to other classes but your build for one warrior is almost cookie cutter to another. Class diversity may be good but build diversity sucks ahh
Good changes for me played s6 a lot
thanks for the summary , not worth comming back for sadly
Yip, still no endgame progress content.
The only thing that I find mildly interesting about D4S7 is the potential to build a FoF Andariels wolf pack druid (since lucky hit proccs will now apply to minions/companions).
But honestly I can't put myself through another few dozen hours of this gameplay to get to a place where I can make that build.
Do you think POE 2 needs an armory since it is "standard?" I have never heard anyone mention that in poe.
poe2 is dog sh*t
"Standard" as in a feature that was in D3. Shouldn't be controversial to expect parity with the sequel.
@joshwent I think it should as it didn't start with the same philosophy as d3 they wanted it to be more like path in that your choices matter. I think knocking D4 for this but not POE is a bit strange. It's never something D2 would implement and ppl would claim that to be superior.
It's not in poe because there is no need for an armory. There is no build swapping, there are not gear sets. If you have a magic find character, you are specifically magic finding. If you have a bossing character, you are specifically bossing. You don't mix the two. (ignorjng the mf on gear debate)
The closest this gets is swapping gems for bosses which you can do on the fly and going to town to change it literally just adds loading screens.
Whats the best mana flask? The unique one is too expensive
I played the fuck out of D4 from the start an had fun.
No hate.
Now I'm playing POE2 and having a fucking blast.
Im gratefull for both, but I dont have any desire to go back to D4...maybe ever.
Maybe a bad analogy would be I had a pet hamster (D4) and then I got a dog (POE2)
Appreciate all the hours spent learning from your vids.
Hamsters are awesome🥹
I'll give PoE a try when it fully releases. I've already uninstalled D4 and just checking once in a while if there's anything new that I might like.
@almo9060 your loss 🤷♂️
Sadly, no d4 content anymore... it was a nice time with rax and maxroll
Did Raxx shave his head ?
Diablo 4 is a casual ARPG and there is nothing wrong with this.
Considering the time I've clocked and even if I have no plans playing it in the forseen future ,I'd say it worth the money I spent.
I couldn’t care less about PoE. I’m glad you are still doing Diablo content ❤
I will login and make a shred and see if it actually good now or else going back to my flickerstrike
need more endgame!
As long as they buff heat seeker (by at least 500%) without the need for ultimate skills, I'll be happy.
Blizzard is so terrified to have parts of the game that only a portion of the player base can get through that I'm not sure they will ever add the kind of content blasters want.
They are afraid of adding anything that would be considered an achievement.n
I finished the last d4 season journey in less than a week, played for maybe 1 week after and that was it
So many missed opportunities with this game
Duplication fix????
D4 has a lot of the same issues D3 had, a lifeless skill system, very little deterministic crafting, and a boring endgame. I spent thousands of hours grinding D3, I prayed D4 was going to bring the change. Still waiting.
D3 skill system was arguably better, at least the runes you would get just from leveling would actually alter your skills then legendaries/sets on top of it would make some wild combos
Stop parroting things you hear other people say.
the gear sets are WAY better in D3. D4 is just over-complicated & schizophrenic when it comes to gear. the D3 paragon scaling system is perfect, the GR scaling is perfect.
D3 Tierlist video when?
YAY D4 content again.
poe fans sure talk about diablo a lot.
Poe fans after playing D4 for over a year *fixed *
they hate us cuz they aint us. poe 2 such a letdown.
Easy to shit on d4
they are spectrum riders, they tend to fixate, not easy for their kind to get over their ex
@@DiablozStyxlmao
i will never 'fight' those muppets Duriel and co ever again. Enough
I dont know how these type of changes are acceptable to be done over 3 months. Regardless of what other studios manage or do, D4, flagship game, 5000 or so ppl on staff and there are so few changes, not to even speak of Endgame development. I played every season before for about 50-100 hours each, but I just dont find it interesting to login, grind paragon mindlessly in pits with no flavor and uber bosses with zero challenge.
The difference in how Paragon levels and POE2 char levels are designed says it all for me - in POE2 I honestly couldnt even tell how I got to almost level 90. As a player you are constantly engaged - what orb dropped, what map affixes, what events are up on the map, making choices in those events, etc. In D4, I grind pits.
U literally repeated Maps 4x lmao Maps.. vs Pits.. Maps are an absolute sham and a waste of time - 1 portal per waystone MEH
And you really think a copy+pasted passive tree identical across all classes is better than unique paragon boards?? Smh
@@mjackels1377you missed the point - yes, poe2 is focused on maps, but the maps have a large variety such as monsters, events, additional bosses, etc. I also get to build the map, choosing and modifying thr challenges. Compared to pits which have nothing remarkable in them except 2 floors of monsters in narrow corridors.
Maps also drop like 10 different type of items and are interconnected with many other systems.
There will always be cookiecutter builds, but saying d4 paragon board is unique tells me you are just trolling.
@ def not trolling.. Maps are extremely basic and unfun.. literally they are dumbed down dungeons with no bosses and the cost/reward just isn’t worth the time.. u get one shot and if u fail u get such a penalty that its just not worth it. You y really think they’re more diverse by putting in some modifiers? Lmao keep telling yourself that buddy..
There needs to be more stuff to do in PoE2 to hold anyone’s interests or to even make it replayable.. no one wants to do the same campaign over and over and over again, and Maps as the only endgame activity is horribly repetitive.
Pits are not the only endgame in D4.. after the campaign you can do many many things.. Nightmare dungeons, World Bosses, Torment Bosses, Helltides, Tree of Whispers, Infernal Hordes, Realmwalkers and Seething realms, Dark Citadel, Undercity, Side quests, etc..
Why do you think Pits is the only endgame? Loll “just tells me you’re trolling”
Oh yeah, I remember this game. Kinda forgot it existed
Looks fun, ill blast this with the bois and enjoy my time. Diablo will always be like this for people who aren’t chronically online
You couldn't even say you're going to enjoy playing the game without taking potshots, lmao
It will be hard going back to d4 after poe2. I think season 8 will be fire.
Still haven’t bought the expansion. And I don’t feel I missed anything
Did they just give up on the idea of leader boards? It's the lowest hanging fruit that gives you a reason to keep gearing and paragon levelling, but they aren't doing it. It's genuinely crazy to me.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I've moved over from POE2 to D4, and these types of videos are extremely helpful. The sheer lack of content and really odd design choices over at GGG has killed POE2 for me. I hope other content creators aren't quitting D4 content for POE2. Unpopular opinion, so far, I think D4 really blows POE2 out of the water. I just started so I am unaware of previous controversy and battles fought/won/lost but I can tell it's still the better game from what I can see right now.
brother ur truly lost. u better seek out for help asap lol
😂 no shot you actually believe what you typed out. Poe2 has wayyyy more content its not relatively close.
> I hope other content creators aren't quitting D4 content for POE2
no need to worry, ccs go wherever the views are. currently its at poe2, but over time, as the novelty falls off for most people and they start looking for exciting updates, they will also quickly realize that ggg is very much antifun and spread over to other games, and the ccs will follow.
@@lowensohn467 hes having fun. You criticize someone who oppose to your opinion, your the one that needs help
@@ryanb9305 I have 6 maxed out characters in POE2 and I can tell you that's not even remotely true. I believe the majority of the stuff in POE2 just doesn't work or hasn't been fully implemented.. Half the skills and passives are for weapons that aren't in the game yet
8k employees vs 200 employees
Haha love Rax reading the d4 patch notes while having poe2 minimazied on the background just summarise it all,
What does it summarize? That Raxx is playing more than one game in his life?
yes, you can like both. perfect summary
