Name a ARPG better than PoE
" The differance is that PoE actually has gotten supported over the years and is much less hated. Not to mention its free to play. Making a seperate PoE 2 would mean PoE 1 would die. Or atleast suffer badly. Not only that would they support both games seperatly then? What about all microtransactions, would it only work in PoE 1? To me it totaly makes sense that they merge. I also think endgame will have PoE 2 maps, monsters etc.. Considering you get 7 new acts, new story, 16 new classes, all new items, reworked graphics.. Yes i would say its more then just an update. |

scantum breach is better
So all you really end up having is playing the economy, and plowing maps. And if you want to get anywhere on your character, you are better off mowing monsters down like weeds and just collecting pennies of the ground as fast as possible than any meaningful item hunting.

" I been playing for Grim Dawn for at least four years with a little bit of time during the alpha/beta days. I have over 1200 hours in the game and that is possibly my longest offline game time I ever spent on... and I am still doing vanilla content. God forbid I get into playing mods like Reign of Terror....many hundreds of hours more will be stacked up. Edit: I usually go back and forth with PoE and Grim Dawn throughout the years, but this year has been all Grim Dawn. Honestly though, I still have PoE in a special place in my heart since I spent at least 3000 hours here. Grim Dawn has grown on me more since the game keeps getting better and better and it helps the devs are still giving free updates after Forgotten Gods was released over a year ago.

" Hmm, Diablo 2.. lord of destruction comes to mind. Wow, it's almost like they kept the same base game name, but added an expansion name! Following your logic, D2 LoD should have been released as Diablo 3.

" I like Grim Dawn a fair bit, I'm a bit of a casual so the game seems to get a little unforgiving once you get into the higher difficulties. I played a lot of the original Sacred and really enjoyed it. A lot of depth to that game and I liked the world. |

" Okay so what did LoD do. One new act that simply continues the main story, 2 new classes, some small stuff here and there. Really no visual upgrades at all besides better resolution support. PoE 2, A completly new story with 7 acts! Remember all D3/D2 had was 3 acts and a super tiny one on release. 16 new subclasses. All base items visuals reworked, new animations, new PBR texturing. And the list can continue. We can also asume all the edgame maps in PoE 2 will be based on new tilesets. Not at all same thing as comparing it with LoD. Its a completly different story. Also concidering PoE basically releases new expansions every year. Dilerium, Harvest etc... It makes sense to call this PoE 2 when its waaay bigger then any expansion pack would be. So yeah your wrong. Baaaaaam!  Last edited by WickedSausage#2727 on Jul 27, 2020, 2:44:27 PM

Think of it as a new game that is backwards compatible.

" Graphics will get incremental improvements to match the PoE 4.0 quality. Mainly visual revamps of legacy campaign zones (a1-a10) and new animations for the current character models, the same ways zombies got new animations. First glimpse of POE2(4.0) quality was the updated Lioneye's Watch with 3.9. Even before 4.0 (PO2) launches the graphics will already look way better than today, so the magepatch will mainly be new subclasses,skill gem rework and new acts. Masterpiece of 3.16 lore "A mysterious figure appears out of nowhere, trying to escape from something you can't see. She hands you a rusty-looking device called the Blood Crucible and urges you to implant it into your body." Only usable with Ethanol Flasks Last edited by gandhar0#5532 on Jul 27, 2020, 5:19:59 PM

" PoE 2 isn't going to have its own endgame. Both versions will share the same endgame maps. |
