I played path of exile years ago and it was great.
- grenoire 8y agoNow it's even better, and even more addicting...
- dkersten 8y agoMe too! It was fantastic. Ironically, I stopped playing a few weeks before it came out of closed beta (just didn’t have time and then never went back to it... now its changed so much I feel a bit overwhelmed by the thoughts of going back to it) I actually heard about PoE on HN too, back in 2012 :)
- tbredin 8y agoThe latest update has a sort of dungeon building mechanic and its so so good. Highly recommend trying it out again. The art & graphics have improved a lot since closed beta too (I was there ... just never left)
- dkersten 8y agoThanks for the comment! I may give it another look. (although a big reason behind why I haven’t is that I mainly play on consoles now, will have to see how well it runs on my shitty machine!)
- aw3c2 8y agoWay too complicated compared to Diablo.
- digi_owl 8y agoSadly the complication is "skin deep". Thanks to some odd choices when designing defenses, your best bet for survival is piling on as much life boosters as you can muster. After that it is all about picking up as much damage boosts as you can (again there is some weirdness there because one type of boost is stronger than another kind, and the only way to tell the two apart is by the wording) for how you want to kill stuff.
- quikoa 8y agoYea it's too bad that the actual complication is more an obfuscation of game mechanics. That and the game is quite grindy compared to Diablo2 even if you know what you're doing. A single player version with support for mods could've been very nice. Sadly it's online only.
- tbredin 8y agoThe latest update (Incursion = large dungeon building) is super good and worth coming back for
