yeee i mean, im not really the type thats gonna complain about the fact that poe is the best arpg on the market right now, numbers dont lie. i will however complain about everything else <_<

for example i think poe is the best on the market mostly because the market itself is shit. arpg market kinda reminds me of the serbian food situation :unsure: for example 20 years ago everyone had grandparents who lived in a village and owned cattle, so everyone knew what smoked meat was. even if you didnt have it, you could just go to a shop and buy it, it was good because the shops had to compete against something of really high standard. but the times changed, no one lives in a village anymore and kids today dont even know what smoked meat should taste like :wacko: shops sell something that i can only describe as low quality meat and cartilage glued together with gelatin. costs like hell, tastes like shit, but people STILL buy it simply because they have no idea what a high quality product looks like anymore :wacko:

so...i guess thats my main issue, the quality standards changed. poe is the best on the market because its a monopoly, it had time to evolve riding the wave created by diablo 2, which was a vastly superior game (judging by numbers again, although i obviously have a bias) in an environment without any competition, with the currently absolute best business model and state of the art PR. and at some point numbers just attracted numbers, it became ubiquitous (like some kids here who complained they didnt like fortnite but had to play it because everyone else did).. im not gonna play d2 now because of nostalgia and low player count, but if those two were removed i would still enjoy it the same as before

basically i might just be autistic, but i cant really explain the numbers poe has. i mean it does most things *well*, but has a lot of problems also! player interaction is nonexistent (this is done either with direct cooperation or competition and poe has neither), story is edgy af and has been patched more times than the lgbt name, and there isnt any sense of accomplishment as everything gets reworked every 3 months :unsure: the one groundbreaking thing poe gives is complexity, which is impossible to find in such a level not just in other arpgs, but in most games in general. so that might be it, idk :mellow: although for a new player, this might not be a good thing

tldr: i understand nothing :cry:

While I agree with you, Poe is vastly superior to d2 aside from the PvP aspect which isn’t that great or complex to begin with. I really liked BNS PvP actually. The two games started off the same but are now completely different.

but...but pvp is very important to me :cry: especially uncontrolled like in d2! where in one moment you could be camping in a baalrun, and in the next you are getting jumped by a fully geared lvl 99 tmc hdin with autoaim who came there with the sole purpose of fucking everything up :drool:

ah, those were the days ^_^

A lot of the combos and frame ticks are simplified

This is ass this guy doesn't know what he's talking about. PoE is awesome it's got a high learning curve but it's awesome... They're strict with any third party trading outside of the game RMT and jsp counts as RMT.

The game focuses heavily on crafting you're not gonna find the best gear on this site you're going to find the best gear on TFT discord or craft it yourself..

a wise man once said, "it is easier to find a 100$ bill in the anus of an ethiopian hooker, than a person who can start poe right now and actually enjoy the game" :mellow:

seriously, everyone who loves poe states that complexity is the most appealing thing about the game. and i agree with that ^_^ but its simply too much for a casual player i think!

I don't believe PoE is for casual players though. Its target audience is for dedicated players; ones committed to its gameplay style. I would never suggest my wife to play it but I would my brothers.
