PoE 2 feels like it has more staying power.

GGG has also demonstrated already in the first few days of EA that they are far more responsive to player feedback than blizzard ever will be (company size probably has a lot to do with this).

I would say PoE2 is at least as fun already in EA as D4 is now (several seasons into release). Based on my 20k hours in poe1, I would very much imagine PoE will be enjoyable for far longer each season than d4 even by just the first league.

All that said, I'm still going to play both :)


Just think about when full PoE 2 will drop. :)

Might be a hot take but...

both have their advantages over the other.

D4 is more fun to get with a group of friends and blast for a few days and feel good about getting stronger fast etc...

POE2... crafting feels good, bossing on melee feels super bad early on. Not fun to play in a party since spells cover up monster effects sometimes.

Story... not even close D4 > whatever the lore is in poe2

Both will get better with time, some seasons will suck and get boring very fast.

Rinse & repeat on every ARPG

The real question should be," POE1 or POE2?"

The Diablo 4 (and Diablo 2) cinematics are the best game cinematics in the world. That is not a question. And yes, the story telling actually high tier as well, really playing with emotions if you let it do it.

Facts.

The main story for d4 was really good.

The expansion story was ass. And this is coming from someone who has really enjoyed d4.

Except:

Diablo 3 promised a nice PvP arena - almost moba style - I remember the hype video of it. Fans even made that arena as a Warcraft 3 map, visually loyal what we have seen in the video - I remember we played that before Diablo 3 release.
And the arena itself was in the game, becaue they released Echoing Nightmare as a new content and it takes place in that area.

PoE 1 had a small but active PvP playerbase for a while with GGGs direct support / correspondance.
Sadly I think the sheer amount of almost endless possible builds in PoE (1 and 2) makes balancing PvP near-impossible <_<
