PoE2 looks alright i guess, never really liked the speed meta and have enjoyed grim dawn much more and with D4 announcement im not that exited for PoE2 but i can see myself be later on.
Hope it does well though.
Now we only need a Grim Dawn 2 too.
Do you hear the voices too?
It's a big part of why I quit myself. Darting around with a movement skill while clearing the whole screen with the press of a button isn't very compelling gameplay to me. I mean PoE is still light years ahead of Diablo 3 almost every aspect, and I'm going to give PoE 2 a solid chance, but if the meta stays the same I doubt I'll stick with it for too long.
They showed the early game on fresh characters. That is normally slow. I 100% expect the speed meta to still be in full swing once people get past the start.
And even if it isn't. Power creep will bring it back in short order.

You don't have to play that way.
Play how you like.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death
Path of Exile 2 looks good.
So does Diablo 4.
This is gonna be a fun year.
I was about to get upset about there being a PoE 2 when PoE 1 is perfectly fine, until I saw that it's just tacked onto the end of PoE 1. That's cool. Really looking forward to the innovations and new campaign. Primarily can't wait to completely strip all of my characters and regear them with the new jewel system...that's going to break current builds sooooo hard. For the better I'm sure, but you know, growing pains and such.
If you truly believed D4 will be out in 2020, no fucking chance about that. Even blizzard said "not even blizzard soon", which could mean its still away for at least 2 - 3 years at the very least. Hell, they announced D3 in 2008/2009 and it came out 3 - 4 years later than that.
PoE 2 tries to have a closed beta at the end of 2020. So expect a full release at late 2021/early to mid 2022.
Sometimes streaming on Twitch.tv, leave me a follow or a message if you like!
Somehow the new gem/skill system seems more complicated than the gear socket.system. especially because you still kinda do have gear that affects skills.
Honestly, I'm not sure about this change.
Actually I didn't say that at all, my problem is that they waste time making story content (which is the most time-consuming thing they can do, design entirely new acts) when people don't play the game for them anyway. The first thing everyone does in PoE each season is bum-rush to the maps.
You can say that's not true, and I'll call you a liar, because I've not encountered a single person that cares about the story and campaign over the endgame. But instead of understanding that, they waste months of time hiring voice actors and designing new player hubs and quests for all of us to skip.
