    Game looks fantastic to me. They have addressed several of my hangups with the first game. It's almost like they read my mind because I certainly didn't post on their forums about it. My guess is my issues were just very common. Primarily it was around the classes not really being classes because they didn't define anything about the class other than your avatar and starting position on the passive tree. Your abilities were drops in the form of gems. I guess someone agreed with me because here we are with each class having a distinct identity.

    Can't wait. Very much looking forward to this one

    That's pretty extreme for game you could get free, for sure. At least it comes with a shirt to replace the one you have to sell off your back to afford it.

    The PoE 2 gameplay looks just so damn good. The depth I don't even have to mention. This will bring me a lot of joy for at least another decade.

    The sequel looks incredible. I paid $30 for points, that I would buy anyways, and early access.

    Is it Always Online like PoEx 1?

    yep.  It's too big to keep maintaining two clients for anyway.

    Nothing then. I don't like Always Online things. They are decidedly not for me. Regardless of actual quality of product.

    The trailer was amazing. I have easily 2000 hours in Path of Exile so playing this is a must for me.

    Based on my experience with POE 1 I will pass.

    The first PoE was OK but wasnt thrilled with the way they did the classes...I also had trouble with builds and the skill tree was a bit of a mess....Reading some of these posts sounds like they are making an attempt to improve it this time.....

    So, a game you play pretty casually eh?  ;)
