Still a great game and I haven't played anything closer to D2 than PoE.

Shame the PvP system here is so bad, they simply just don't put any resources into it


poe is better than every aspect of d2, except pvp... but pvp in d2 was just about avoiding the endless bugs

D2 was great because of the PvP, you will not find that here

This game just turns into a mindless grind to 100

thanks man, pretty much what I wanted to hear.


Pretty sure this does not describe PoE too properly... I mean you learn and enjoy stuff for quite a while (around a year I'd say) before all you see about the game is what you just said...
Sure a year seems like a lot but that also varies depending on how much of a no-life person you are. It took me a good 3 years or so before I got rich, bored, and started looking for another game.

Game is worth playing. You won't miss PvP because the PvM (or PvE, w/e) is pretty awesome. Also, like Snyft just mentioned, a massive update is coming and if you want to compare to D2, I'm sure you enjoyed going through the 5 Acts in D2 when you started playing. Now, you're going through 10 longer Acts with better graphics, better gameplay, more diversity character-wise (build, abilities, etc.), more Quality of Life features and well, better everything, IMO.

" but pvp in d2 was just about avoiding the endless bugs"

disagree wholeheartedly

pvp on d2 actually required skill and fast reactions (if not using aa, other mods)

imo at least

Path of exile has awesome pvp, they just do not run it constantly :(
But if you enjoy d2 path of exile is a much better game in pretty much every aspect outside of pvp.

Yea the reason I loved D2 was for the PvP aspect. I really only had a couple PvM MF chars so i could gear my PvP chars. Seems like there's nothing else out there that compares
