Why market this as an ARPG

OK I feel like we can cut the OP some slack with the ARPG nomenclature stuff.

With respect to the rest of their post:

For being able to become a god, they said they want you to be able to do this, but with some investment (time and/or currency). Just maybe not as quickly as PoE1.

OP, if you haven't played PoE1, I suggest you do. I think it may be more inline with what you're looking for. I know this kind of comment kinda sucks when the new and shiny game isn't what you want, but I think this is the best you can do for now. (Or Last Epoch, great game!)

this idea of an "ARPG" being a very small set of guidelines that must be conformed to needs to stop.

Mario Kart is not a racing game because it does not contain my favorite Porsche.

I don't think Nintendo had enough money for the licensing for that one...
