Path of Exile 2: Endgame Content Reveal

[@edward6069]

This video about endgame is longer that diablo's 4 endgame

[@FodZy]

You're very enthusiastic, but it's important to moderate the "hype." The game and its intro cinematic look amateurish, the combat seems messy with too many effects that feel simplistic and graphically random. The overall art direction also feels completely random, as if it could be made with assets purchased on the Unreal Store-it would look the same. The map looks like something out of Mario Party or some other game of the genre. I’m not taking much of a risk in saying that the story will likely be barely memorable. So, it will probably be a great game for purists and hardcore fans of hack-and-slash games. But for the average player (the majority of any community), Diablo 4 will remain the most sold and played game. Having 80 different activities doesn’t make a game good or successful. WoW is the MMO that revolutionized the genre and remained the most played for 20 years. For 10 years, it only had one activity: raids. For the next 10 years, it was raids + mythic dungeons. GTA only has a handful of core activities (shooting, driving, and exploring an open world), yet no one can rival GTA. A football game or Call of Duty essentially only has one game mode, yet these are the most played games and have been for far longer than any other game. This is not an attack on a game you surely adore. I see all this from the perspective of a nearly 40-year-old developer. Whether it's Diablo 4 or Path of Exile 2, I will play both occasionally. But as a mass-market product, Diablo 4 is unfortunately unbeatable. A lack of real competition is never good for the consumer.

[@jaredkinneyjr]

I never played PoE 1 cuz of the look / GFX, the super fast pace, accessibility with controller & mostly, the screen clutter/density. I sure hope they slow the game down some & reduce the "clutter". Watching streamers on Twitch play the end game was so off putting for me that I never even considered playing. FYI, I am HUGE isometric / ARPG game fan. It always saddened me the asthetics of PoE1 were so repulsive to me given the fact that I love the theory crafting aspect of PoE. I can't wait to watch Asmongold play & to see how it goes. I really really hope they shy away from the exact PoE 1 formula & break into a bit more of the ARPG market. I know the PoE enthusiasts don't want to hear things like that but there was a reason PoE1 never hit GotY terrritory, it is a niche game, period. And sadly, too niche for me. Let's turn it around.

I usually only play fps game like Battlefield, COD. Diablo 4 was my first ARPG game. Seeing how the team presented PoE2 content I can see they are real passionated and and have deep care for the game. Definitely worth the wait.

[@vhayne91777]

Welcome to the genre! You're going to be blown away at just how much there is to do and just how deep the systems go (if it's even remotely close to PoE), when compared to D4. I like D4, don't get me wrong. But PoE makes D4 look like a child's game in comparison. PoE2 looks to be on par with that, mostly.

Thank you GGG! You guys are one of the very few devs left out there that continue to outdo yourselves, innovate, come up with new and interesting systems, improve on the old, listen to feedback, and make your games better and better, especially in the stale and fly-by-night ARPG space.

Dude, the small details and particle effects are so frikin beautiful. All the sounds and scattered particles make the world look more tangible and physical. Incredible job 👏

I am a very passionate guy about games and this game will be so great that no other ARPG will ever come close to competing with this. The amount of effort GGG are putting into this game is insane and a company like this should be recognized for their passion for developing a game and devotion to us players.

@@hmr1122 There is nothing to say PoE2 will play that differently in end-game. Looks likely to be an unreadable screen full of mobs that drop once you touch the mouse. Itemization looks closer to d2 though and that is enough for me.

Being true to yourself and your fanbase and cut act 4-6 for EA is such an good move :)

[@hsj1991]

For me, what amazes me about POE isn't just the gameplay and the skill tree. At 00:57:00, the background music perfectly sets the atmosphere for the boss's entrance, and most importantly, the voice actor's flawless performance gave me goosebumps. It reminded me of my first encounter with Uber Shaper and the chilling lines "putrefy, rot, spoil, and fester," along with Zana's desperate screams. Those moments are unforgettable for me.

[@Helldays59]

this PoE2 early access is way bigger than entire diablo 4 content, insane

[@CriticalComplainer]

It's literally reusing content from PoE 1 you lemming.

[@AbsolutlyN0thin]

that's mostly because they didn't choose to forsake the content of previous series entries. D4 could have had a decent end game on launch if they ported over greater rifts, but they chose not to. Instead they had well... effectively no endgame. GGG instead decided to basically take the best of PoE 1 mechanics and refine them, instead of reinventing the wheel

[@dillydallyyyy]

This is 5x or more (conservative) content than D4 and it is going to be doubled on 1.0 release. Welcome to Path of Exile. Oh and it will be free.

[@TheInfectous]

@@CriticalComplainer It's reusing ideas, everything would have to be remade. doubt anything could be or was just ported over.

[@CriticalComplainer]

@@TheInfectous Only GGG knows for sure, but given these were originally going to be in the same game, and cosmetic models are ported between the two - I would put money on assets being reused and likely a lot of the functionality being copy pasted.

[@katuhstrofik]

the coolest part of this aside from it shaping up to be the greatest ARPG ever conceived, is that the style is almost indistinguishable from PoE 1. unlike Diablo going through weird shifts, this game still occurs in the same universe we've already spent a decade in. it's awesome.
