Thanks to the graphical update in Act 4, my Diablo 3 friends are switching over to POE

The 'look' may be reminiscent, but that's where any similarity ends. Underneath the graphics, where the important stuff is, PoE is in a completely different league as far as the ARPG genre goes. So much so, that the two cannot really be compared as being in the same genre.

PoE is a true ARPG in every sense, while D3 is more in the arcade/action/shooter category.

I can´t stand watching the character animations anymore. The boringness of three years repeating the same 3-5 animations per char is just too much.
What can never be lent or earned?
Somewhat, that devours everyone and everything:
A tree that rush. A bird that sings. It eat bones and smite the hardest stones.
Masticate every sword. Shatters every shrine. It defeat mighty kings and carry mountains on lightly wings.
What am i?

Why do people over and over say "this game can't be compared with that"
"Dota can't be compared with LoL cuz they are sooo different" etc...

Ofc you fucking can, sure comparing Hearts of Iron with Call of duty wouldn't really work.
But games like D3 and PoE has alot more similarites. Even if D3 is more casual, its still part of the same genre.
I don't see the graphical difference, anyone have comparison screenshots?
*COUGH COUGH*!

Cause they are bias idiots. They say you can't compare POE to Diablo 3 because they are all butt hurt after Blizzard shoved their genetic jackhammer up their butt holes when they released D3 with the Auction House. They all threw a hissy fit over the whole RMAH fiasco even though the game was just fine with it. And then when RMAH and GAH was removed these very same people complaining suddenly stopped playing it showing they were just "bandwagonists" going along with the regular internet trend. D3 was designed around the AH and it did more hurt to it by removing it which is why so few people played or after the AH was gone.

They all cried pay to win, when the truth is there is no pay to win in a PVE game. Poor babies are upset, truth be told if not for Blizzard there would be no POE.

Remember David Brevik saying how he would have made D3 better and Jay Wilson saying Fuck that loser? And all these same retards went on like yaaaaaay all hail David B, Marvel Heroes is sooooooo totally gonna be the real Diablo 2 successor cause its DAVID the GODFATHER of ARPG.

Then Marvel Heroes turned out to be a children's game far far more childish than D3. With shitty dumbed down gameplay, a retarded forum system to protect their game against anyone who thinks of criticizing it with a retarded system of giving negatives and lol and thumbs up to the forum post then going on to ban anyone who speaks negative against MH.

These same idiots now went running to POE, the same idiots who screamed every second that Diablo 3 was always online and it should have been single player without the need for an internet connection. These same idiots somehow never said a word of POE being always online was a con they all suddenly became quiet just like a lawyer or politician.

I enjoy both D3 especially Reaper of Souls expansion and POE, both fantastic games and really appreciate the better artistic diablo 3 like approach to act 4.

I hate Diablo 3's cartoonish approach to its graphical style. Also, graphics only serve to compliment gameplay.. If you're playing a game solely based on how it looks, well, its a bit sad.

With that said the Art is different in Act 4, very much so and its a good thing I appreciate it.

I also finally get to bring my D3 friends on board to POE. It is difficult to explain, however if you are a D3 player and you look at act 1 and 2 and then look at act 4 its easy to see how appealing Act 4 is.

you are missing the point big time

Lets be real Diablo 3 is hardly anything close to "best graphics"

You are talking in the realms of Crysis 3 a game hardly anyone ever plays.

I do not think Blizzard makes games on graphics, far from it. Just look at all their games, it is played well over a decade.

few companies can pull off something like that. Art has a lot to do with graphics aswell. Look at team fortress 2, it never gets old.

Your title and topic contents are about graphical standards. Pretty sure I understood your point, and stated my opinion on the matter.

Also, pretty sure a lot of TF2 is its gameplay.

Edit: nor did I say D3 had "the best graphics". I said it looked cartoonish. Did you even read my post? Nor did I state Blizzard designed on graphics alone - I said people CHOOSING GAMES BASED ON GRAPHICS was a bit sad.
