I did not like PoE1. Got very overwhelmed with the skill tree and had to watch a bunch of explainations on YT to understand anything. PoE2 is MUCH more accessible and fun. Bosses are clean. Maps, environments, and abilities look great. Skill tree is much easier. This game is great if you are a normal functioning human with a job and don't have to spend 4 hours to know wtf everything does. 9/10

I'm nearing the end of Act2 and I am loving this game. Finally an ARPG where I have to think about what I'm doing and not just mindlessly melting hordes of enemies. I have played and enjoyed a few other popular ARPGS, but they always just felt like clicking simulators at the end of the day. I like that I die every now and then in POE2 against swarms of normal enemies, or need to take a few attempts to clear a boss. It gives the game some challenge and makes it feel more cerebral. This game feels like it was made for real gamers. I don't smell corporate greed at every turn. It seems like their game design and philosophy respect real gamers who are sick of the diluted AAA experiences the large companies are trying to force. The graphics, animation, and soundtrack are all top notch for the genre. I would highly recommend giving this game a chance in Early Access or in it's full launch. Great work GGG!

Amazing, what it should be, just like in Diablo 2 Lord of Destruction days. Its hard, its fun, the loot is rare, which is nice not having to upgrade every 4 minutes and loot manage, I'm looking at you diablo 3 and 4.... This is the game I've been waiting 15 years for. Already played 51 hours, my eyes hurt, my back hurts, but my heart is happy! <3

Im by no means any kind of POE expert, I've put like 100 hours into the first one. I like ARPGs but I dont have time to no-life them. I got 3 or 4 d4 characters to 100 so nothing crazy. That being said, Im still in the campaign here, but Im having a blast, Ill never play any of the older ARPGs again. This is one of the best EA releases ever, I think its easily the best in recent memory. I've had a couple stutters here and there and got booted maybe twice so far, it's an incredible feat especially considering the amount of players on day 1. I can't speak to the difficulty or system changes from POE1 but I will say that, halfway through the campaign, I feel like I have a decent grasp already, it's not as complicated as it looks. I know that a lot of players coming from POE1 have some growing pains, but if you're just a fan of ARPGs, and are willing to try something a little different, there's a good chance you'll never look back. 10/10 for an Early Access, IGN is a terrible website, Amen.
