    The Real Diablo 3!
    Free-to-Play but not Pay-to-Win. How often do you see that nowadays? Path of Exile feels like Diablo 2 but with much more complexity in its skilling and magic-usage. The World looks absolutely great on Xbox One X and shows so much details. Sometimes the Screen is just overloaded with items and explanations. The Story isnt really catchy too but that is all i have to complain about. If you are a Fan of the old Diablo Games - Download it and get in the game! Its worth it.

    Reasons I quit.
    Console needs all of the PC features. Additionally, CONSOLE ISSUES IGNORED by Devs even at EXILECON! Zero love for console
    Reasons I quit.
    Console needs all of the PC features. Additionally, CONSOLE ISSUES IGNORED by Devs even at EXILECON! Zero love for console players!

    1. No party finder (lonely) and buy/sell doesn't have enough filters (major issue). They should offer mods other than loot filter. No battle Royale either.
    2. Endgame: crafting, maps, builds, delves, and the weird mini games are incredibly confusing for new players especially if on console.
    3. Too easy to "brick" your character. Propper socketing is a nightmare. Respec too expensive. Console economy too expensive with low active player base & currency/item farmers. Unable to trade for build dependent items at reasonable prices (unlike PC). This makes farming kind of pointless & crafting exponentially more difficult.
    4. Too easy to get one shotted by random mobs and not know why.
    5. Video build guides entirely for PC and not console.
    6. Not new player friendly. Even after 350 hours I kept feeling lost.

    I hope POE 2 addresses these issues. Overall, game is far superior to Diablo 4.

    Try playing POE on console. Lack of players & gold/loot farmers makes many trades cost prohibitive. Which kinda ruins farming & requires way more ctafting. No group finder. No mods (except loot finder), limited build possibilities due to crap economy & controller. No Battle Royale. It sucks ballz.

Its main draw is that it is free and playable with friends or alone. Other than that apparently it gets really good after 60 hours, which isn't a great selling point and not something I could speak on. Still, it is free. Expand

I don't play Hardcore so i don't see a porblem in dying once a day due to lags or sth. but I will not play when game looks worst than diablo 1. I was looking for solution to turn this off but it it not possible.

    I really wanted to play this game but this is a "break" for me. And the solution is so easy - possibilities to disable this .......
