I'm in the same boat bro. I've mostly been an MMO enjoyer like you, and haven't spent a ton of time in ARPGs. Barely, and I mean barely played D3. Blew through D4 fast, and Last Epoch I played only a bit. Never really gave PoE1 a fair shake. PoE2 has me so excited with its combat and all its various forms of endgame activities. Here's to hoping this is the one! I think it could be. I'm gonna go in blind, not follow a guide, and have fun struggling to beat the game as a new player without a optimized build lmao I think it's gonna be a blast
I'm also a MMORPG player who never sticked to ARPGs for too long because of their gameplay.. and i am also very pessimistic about many games, at least thats what other people would say, i call it realistic. Yet Path of Exile 2 looks like one of the best games ever made. And it even is a live-service game. After all the crappy MMORPGs and basically nothing new to play in the genre this will be my favorite new game for a long time to come i think.
I was always drawn to PoE conceptually, but the entire one button loot pinjata playstyle wasn't for me. I'm looking forward to actually having to do mechanics. A lot of longtime PoE players seem to really dig the zooming gameplay though, so I'm not sure how long that will last.
ngl the fact that there still is no character creation is a bit lame but obviously just a personal opinion but other than that it looks to be promising and I do hope that the mechanics of the boss fights will somewhat still be relevant even later down during the endgame grind, Cause its the one thing that I personally dislike with ARPGs when you just literally insta gib even bosses but w/e there obviously will be some spreadsheet degen shit happening but I wont partake lul
Yes it seems like it, but they emphasized that the campaign will be much more fleshed out and the bossfights more interesting. Lets see if its still gonna be annoying to do
I think a lot of the systems and the direction look good, though the actual execution of those things will probably be pretty buggy/rough at launch and take time to smooth out. It'll be like a typical league start times 20, with waaay more content and systems that have to come together. Within a year or two I bet it will start to be in a pretty solid spot, though. Going in completely blind is fine if that's your thing, I'd recommend at least reading what the skills and ascendancies do though, so you can make informed choices instead of just picking random things and bricking your character.
Well now you can actually read what everything does ingame for the first time. And yes I agree maybe it will take until launch for it to fully come together but the foundation seems great.
Why it won't: Either you have enough downtime to play something else in between seasons, or you burn out of the game entirely and have time to play other games for a long long time. The whole reason PoE is so damn good is because the devs realize and embrace that fact, so they design around it to keep you coming back like a good little junkie :p
@@Neeko2lo I don't know I'm playing poe1 now for a reason. It doesn't magically get worse because poe2 happens to be better. If I don't like poe1 I shouldn't be playing it now, if I do then why wouldn't I like it in a week? Same with Last Epoch, it doesn't get worse because poe2 is better.
@@reznovvazileski3193 If you enjoy those games, then keep enjoying them, i personally dont enjoy the outdated gameplay of the ARPG genre anymore either, so i will just play PoE2
Lost Ark combats are 1000 times better. POE2 boss vs Lost Ark looks so boring Diablo, PO2 are not dynamic at all compared to LOA. When I compare the deadeye vs mercenary i'm dying.
IM GONNA FLICKER SO HARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!X"§!X"!"!
MY NOSE IS STUFFED FROM SNORTING POE2 COPIUM.
I DONT KNOW WHAT TO TITLE THIS.
Actually it's cool seeing you positive about a game for once. Got my ea key. I'm stoked!

Monk has something of Awa Maehwa and Tamer. And the Poe2 Ranger Jump looks like the BDO Archer Jump.
Ye it reminds of MMO action combat which is a great sign!

Im the same, I always wanting to play PoE properly but never getting hooked
Wait... is this THE GAME ? I'm kinda hyped
At least THE ARPG
Same.

Will we have to do again and again the campaign like on poe1?

I think it will be rough to play any other arpgs after this :D

Even if its half as good as Lost Ark combat it would be a massive improvement from poe1
