    Once I figured out how to join a friend (turns out it defaults you to league when you first start) i found the whole experience to be instantly rewarding, while the amount of choice can be particularly daunting but the option to mix and improve magic and abilities is phenomenal and you immediately feel powerful.

    The UI is a bit overbearing for console and I can imagine playing on a smaller tv (65inch) as the writing is already small.

    I can see myself coming back to this game as its simple to pick up and put down and a great bash with friends.    … Expand

    The Path of Exiles is a good free game. You get to team up in 6 people teams if you want or play solo. Graphics are decent and game is easy to figure out and play. Smooth loading screens and game play.

    Superb hack and slash ARPG for the PS4 with serious Game Dev house to back them. I have also played and loved Diablo, Diablo 2 & Diablo 3. Grinding gear games (POE) and other studios like Crate (Grim dawn ) are the studios taking this genre forward for the foreseeable future.

    This first PS4 adapted version is not perfect. But for the PS4 platform there is not a better match in its own genre. Once you get used to its control/UI flaws, it is easy to get sucked into the world of Wraeclast, and endless hours of batlle, grinds and crafting await you.

    I played this game on PC, and thoroughly enjoyed its depth. Now on PS4, I'm able to relax on my couch and living room TV, for some late night dungeon clearance. When the screen is filled with text and loot, the UI imperfections will become visible, and I will have to move closer to the TV in order to read what is going on. But despite this flaw, the complete experience is totally there.

    I still find it unbelievable this is a free game. Spending money to buy stashtabs and cosmetic upgrades has never felt so good, since I'm supporting a team of dedicated game developers. If the developers are able to sort out the UI imperfections, this game would deserve a solid 10.    … Expand

    The games really fun but it's missing a lot of key elements that the PC version has.

    I've switched over to PC for the time being and will come back to the PS4 version once it's been upgraded with the missing features. Such tings as the ability to join random parties, easier storage management and access to stacking aura's without clogging up my ability slots. Are the biggest reasons.

    This game deserves an 8 for many reasons and it being free is quite beneficial too. If you're looking for a Diablo fix or loot type of game with a good support system, class range, build range, unique creatures, abilities, terrain and more. Then you've definitely come to the right place.

    If the issue's I've mentioned persist throughout the next coming month or so. Then I'd give this game a 7 just because they're an unnecessary hindrance that the developers should be able to work out.    … Expand

    La parte mala es que quizás la jugabilidad no sea la mejor del mundo y salvo que estés en clara desventaja por las resistencias elementales el único desafío van a ser ciertos bosses.
    Lo mejor, para mi, es el end-game por la cantidad de contenido y que squí si quizá las cosas se ponen un poco más exigentes, sin llegar a ser algo realmente dificil.
    En general es muy buen juego, y siendo F2P no hay motivos para no darle una oportunidad.    … Expand

    Honestly as an arpg this is probably the best closest fun to Diablo 3 you can have. In fact POE has a lot of depth. I am having a lot of fun. It isn't P2W. All microtransactions are cosmetic or for extra storage. While expensive the store-front may be, one can appreciate such polish on an underrated free to play title.

    In my case I don't see why most people don't like the game it's fun and feels fresh for an Arpg game like this. Since Diablo didn't really entice me to play more so I desired to play this game but I only had a PS4. In the case of game-play is fluid and complex with the expanding skill tree and skill gem system in mind. The story is fine but I don't really pay that much attention though.In my case I don't see why most people don't like the game it's fun and feels fresh for an Arpg game like this.

The music is great obviously. And the only problem is the fact that you need a plan before you go in that's how it's complex. All and all 9/10 nice work GGG.… Expand

    The best free RPG on PS4(of course). Firstly, i should say- its better than Diablo 3(on PS4). Secondly, this game must be tried by everyone who have PS4. This game isnt for casual player, but if you want some challenge, which turns into timekiller, PoE is made for you.

    Great game. I find it way above Diablo 3. Everything works great, no crashes, nothing. I have to say, but praise this game. Story, music, gameplay. I love this game.

    Best real time ARPG available on Playstation 4 currently. Highly replayable. Completely FREE. Anyone who enjoys ARPGs is doing themselves a disservice by not trying this one out.

    First of all its free and I know that is no excuse for problems with the game like bugs, long loading screens for me at least and the price of the packs on the PS Store is shocking for the content you get from them.

The UI does need fixing and seriously needs text chat in the game.… Expand

    The PS4 version of Path of Exile is not the best of the bunch, and there are still bugs and glitches all over, but this is still an excellent hack'n'slash RPG and one of the best free-to-play to have ever graced the console market.
