Take your time playing it. There’s lots to do. I’ve been at it for 6 straight years.

Beware of what opinions you read. Lots of haters as of recent since GGG took out alot of the OP stuff.


This. People hate when GGG nerf things. They just don't realise that to keep game fresh meta needs to shift. Also GGG release 4 times a year free content patch (league), which is amazing.

D2R is just D2. So of course it's getting boring. It was boring 10 years ago.

D2R old game with new graphics. boredom will follow soon. As rune/item hype is away and market is flooded again.
Beside that they even make the characters look old. They need cain's stick to walk :P

this 100%

all of you will get bored of D2R once prices drop and youre no longer making easy quick FG.

poe is a fantastic game with tons of depth to it and not just "one" way to farm at endgame, lots of options to farm how you like

PoE experiences a lot of drastic changes that sometimes do not address the main community concerns or line up with the stated design goals of the game.

If you’re able to adapt to those changes, the game can be quite fun for many people. If those changes remove the things you enjoy about the game you can feel like you’ve been personally patched out of the game.

With d2:r removing wsg pvp is pretty bad right now. Legacy d2 offers a better pvp experience & poe offers a better pvm experience.

Completely agree. Sums it up perfectly. Although wish POE would add a enigma for my summoner lol.

Thinking about starting this game. How is PoE compared to D2R? What's the gameplay like? Itemization, loots, grinding, skills, etc. Is it worth to invest my time into?


poe is the pinnacle of the sunken cost fallacy exploitation. basically, on paper the game is free. but once you play for a few days, you will realize you cant do much without at least one premium tab, currency tab, map tab, essence tab, you name it. you will pay for them. note that in your head the game is still "free" :wacko: "oh, how they must care about the community!", you will think, "i should support the company for this lovely completely free business model!". the next thing you know, youve sunk 1000$ into the game and get a boner every time chris wilson (the boss) talks on a podcast. to you, chris is god now and every decision is "the game following the vision and going in the right direction" :mellow:


if you are like me, a filthy eastern european who doesnt pay for shit, you will avoid this mental trap and see poe for what it is. an unpaid job, but more time consuming :wacko: if you cant put at least 8h a day into poe, get fucked because you wont be able to make your char actually work. and once you eventually do make it work, get fucked anyways because the game is changed every couple of months from the ground up and your char wont work anymore. you cant play for the pvp because there isnt any, you cant play for the company because you will get muted if you for example say that europe doesnt need any more migrants. say anything that cant be signed by both alex jones and antifa, and in 5 seconds flat you will be muted by the resident mongoloid named lisa_ggg <_< the story has been patched more times than the standard model of particle physics yet somehow makes even less sense :wacko:

the problem is that d2r managed to shit on the best thing d2 had to offer, pvp :(

tldr: d2 > poe > d2r. be realistic if you try it, and know that the game is not actually free, and it will make your mind much clearer. and when you quit it due to unnecessary complexity in a week, i recommend any of poes competitors (last epoch or something) because poe in the current state is just...boring :wacko:
