You are just a retarded meta chaser. There are endless of builds out there that you can pretty much do EVERYTHING in the game if you want to.

Sure, just remove PooE and "diablo" 4, replace the pajeet Diablo 2 "remaster" with Project Diablo 2 and put Grim Dawn in the image, maybe then I will agree.

I don't care how much you "change" Blizzard, i'm not paying $60 for a game with a fucking paid BATTLEPASS that rubs over prices cosmetics and other MTX's in your face.

Last Epoch is objective trash. There is nothing good about that game. Being openly and proudly developed by reddit should have been your first red flag. Seeing it be a complete flop shouldn't have surprised anyone.

With mods its still the best ARPG

Its pretty grim for ARPGs right now

People really lose their fucking mind over these games when you can just finish the campaign, maybe try some more classes you like and call it a day. No one's forcing you to grind end game.

>>738794085
They chickened out and lowered them to 5 minutes down from likes 4 hours or whatever they used to be.
>>

It's because Blizzard is still somehow the king of polish. Even Diablo 3 which I didn't like felt amazing to play in moment-to-moment gameplay.

>>738790593
is there any ARPG that lets me wasd while using mouse to aim?
>>
>>738790593
So which of these is truly the best to get into as a newbie to the genre? I've had a passing interest here and there but never fully got into one of these games. Just on looking at them POE seems the best and most funnest one to me but Diablo is the more popular series with a long legacy behind it and I would assume much more of a player base. I kind of have no interest desu in anything besides these two.

Also I'm probably going to get flak for this but I kind of wish there were good console ports of these type of games. Are there any console based ones that are good.
>>
>>738792520
I agree with the sentiment but the trade economy kinda means that unless you have 1000+ hours in the game from before you are going to play catch-up and essential items or specific stat-combos on items will just keep being out of reach because of the inflation.

Sounds about right. This and gacha are heralds of the end times
>>
>>738797816
I keep going back to it, finish the first campaign, then get bored because I do NOT want to repeat that slog again TWICE before I get to the point that I can finally finalize a build and get to farming.
I also have a hard time understanding devotions since 'pathing' or even just choosing important constellations is hard to figure out as a casual. Sucks that I don't have expansions so I can't rely on build guides.
>>
>>738790593
Why the fuck would someone feel the need to make an AI image like this and not even put their own opinions on it? Theres nothing of substance here at all to differentiate them. The images themselves have nothing to do with the games either.

>>738798575
you are supposed to skip Elite unless you have completely fucked up your build and get wrecked on Ultimate
constellations boil down to:
>does it increase the damage of my chosen archetype
>does it help me survive
>>
>>738790915
Because they're made by creators with good track records, the builds are strong and straightforward to get taking and their guides are well written and easy to understand. There are an incredible number of viable and even excellent builds every league. It's just difficult to come up with your own shit. Cookie cutters get played by so many players mostly because of this. It's not because it's the only viable build but because it's an easily accessible one.
>>
>>738790915
Endless does not mean "No Meta".
You can do what you want, and most builds are great. But, everybody want the best.
>>
>>738798575
I do not play for the end game. I play through the campaign and that's pretty much it.

Path of Exile has been fully infiltrated by the hardware lobby. Used to be any computer could run it, now you need top of the line hardware and you STILL have to avoid certain types of content.

Their servers are actually the real issue, it's all server side and if they are taking more than 33ms per tick you will start losing frames.
Was very obvious this league with most people doing unstable breaches and 'a configuration issue' (they are cheap kiwi cunts using bottom of the barrel trash) causing servers to actively run in slow motion.

PoE is the the only real arpg, all the others are slop, especially Poo2
>>
>>738800694
Had a moment after discovering these games where I played for like 3 weeks straight until I realized how shallow they really were.

Wish the dude would just hire someone to make art assets for him.
>>
>>738790593
Is the combat in POE2 actually "weighty" and tactical, or is that just compared to the genre standard?
I generally don't enjoy this genre because combat/actually gameplay always feels so unengaging.
>>
>>738800991
It's an objectively worse version of PoE1.
>>
>>738790593
POE2 will be fun when it's finished, so will Fangs of Asterkarn
>>
>>738790593
and Grim Dawn moggs them all
>>
any of these let me fuck cute elves and retire in some castle as an endgame
>>
>>738801235
Grim Dawn is embarrassingly slow-paced which is a shame because it's otherwise very good.
>>
>>738800991
It's intended to feel more like a souls clone from a top-down perspective. Not terrible, but the progression is too slow due to large empty areas and partially implemented loot in early access. And it is tactical, a lot of skills aren't strong in themselves, you're expected to combo skills together to exploit status effects that build up like the Sekiro posture bar.
>>
>>738800991
No. It's just PoE1 but you move way slower and the enemies deal way more damage. Also dying resets the entire area, including deleting any loot on the ground
>>
>>738801428
>>738801518
Mite b cool, I'm take a look when it hits free to play.
I'm not too concerned about the looting thing. While I like having means of customizing toward a preferred playstyle, I think fun combat should be the reward for playing rather than just seeing numbers go up.

>weighty, tactical combat
maybe at launch. since all the POE1 faggots complained about it being too hard it's now just the same mindless spamslop as POE1 and D4.
