i know for poe cause i played it:

story - 10/10, no one knows it
ending - also 10/10, literally everyone dies. enemies, friends, neutrals, you, me, everyone. if you get sent to find someone, well guess what, hes fucking dead. if hes not, you will probably watch him die. if not, then you have to actually kill him
customization - clean unironical 10/10
replayability - 1/10, repetitive as fuck but people still do it
pvm - 10/10
pvp - 1/10
p2p - no
p2w - yes
community - also yes


help for d4, i want some info ty men

It is hard to compare them, poe is much older game. Comparison vs poe2 I think is the way to go.

As for the topic - the only thing in which diablo 4 surpasses poe 1 is the budget and as a result graphics (more complex engine, more textures, more art, etc).

Also I personally prefer more of a european style fantasy setting, poe is more like oceanic-mesoamerica culutre based. But it is not related to quality of both games ofc.

story - 8/10, pretty good!
ending - 7/10,predictable asf!
customization - 4/10 unless you wanna spend $ then maybe its 6/10
replayability - 5/10 - theres a lot to do now but its arpg and it gets repetitive like all of them
pvp - 4/10 - could be good but blizz too busy making content like AOZ. Its likely pvp will get worse every season as they go further down the d3 poe pvm route. - best builds are mainly DOT damage which also isnt great for pvp.
p2p - no unless if you like skins and cosmetics or want to play early
p2w - yes if you pay to play early i guess but that was only launch and probably expansions.
community - great community just look at this forum dawg

both are games and ppl play them ?

Giving PoE a 10/10 for story is beyond fanboy-stupid.

The story in PoE is poorly told and not even slightly engaging.
There isnt even a single great character in the game that you'd root for or anything else.
Its a total bust in terms of story - thats not really a problem in the end cause no one cares anyways, but still. Story and especially the transportation, the emotional component of it, the bond you create with a good story, is completely absent.

I'd give PoE a 1/10 for story and also not a full 10/10 for customization cause its totally forced. You are a Pyjama-Hero if you dont wanna pay.

I think D4 is the clear winner in both those sections without a doubt.

i agree with everything you said, thats why i gave it 10/10
its hands down the worst story in any rpg ive played ever
so 10/10 because it hits the "so bad its good" lvl

Yeah. I get your point now. Its insane how bad it is

If theres one thing PoE can learn from D3 and D4 than it is the campaign skip after one playthrough. Its really hard to endure this horrendous campaign every few months over and over again.

yeee..well i guess thats what you get when you patch up the story every time you put out new acts
basically this is poe story

> poe released, 2 acts, vaal oversoul end boss, hes responsible for the darkness!
> 3 acts now, well actually piety is real boss
> dominus added, hes actually the one who sent you to wraeclast! piety in shambles. apparently shes only his puppet
> 4th act added, well you see, everyone was only a puppet of malachai!1
> more acts added. actually kitava is the main boss and the puppet is you for releasing him
> shaper added; okay so actually he is the guy whos responsible for atlas
> elder added, in a very surprising turn of events it appears shaper was also a puppet!!1
> actually everyone is a puppet
> more leagues added; it appears wraeclast has moe parallel universes than marvel movies
> no one knows who is the main villain anymore?
> maven added, apparently she is the main villain
> well okay, it seems maven wasnt the main villain! in a plot twist not seen since raditz was sent to earth in dragon ball z, it turns out that 2 much stronger villains are coming after maven!1111
> they are also not the main villains
> so whos the main villain
> IS THE PLAYER

poe players after realizing this:



10/10 would not play again
