Gem and enchant changes are serious

Looks like a fun league. Now if I can only find the time to play...

Also interested in how PoE2 will end up as. Haven't had time to watch the new gameplay yet.

PoE2 is kinda looking like Guild Wars 2 vs Guild Wars 1 in my opinion. I think it's going to get dumbed down and prettied up for the masses.

[–] omgarm 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

But GW2 and GW1 were very different games in the end. POE1 and 2 aren't.

[–] BrikoX@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 years ago

They kind of are. Just the pacing alone of the PoE2 makes it a completely different game. Not to Guild Wars level, but even from the little they showed it will likely to attract a different player base than PoE.

Have you seen the new machine gunner mercenary?
