Detailed overview of Diablo 3 vs. Path of Exile

Why people compare d3 with poe? One of the games is free and full with bugs desync and shitty garbage trash dirty loot while other one is easy game easy life sexy drops and shits but paid *-*

I wouldn't say some of these comparisons are totally unfair, but one thing I noticed was that the article gave a positive "D3 wins" to things such as "difficulty" and how easy it was for casual players to get into the game. Obviously this is extremely subjective when you consider who "wins". These categories shouldn't even have been included IMO because some people want a more difficult game, and others don't. Giving D3 a "win" just because it's easier for casual players to pick it up is an obvious flaw in the article.

this is where I stopped taking it seriously, too

might as well say you're comparing them from a 'casual 2010s gamer perspective' beforehand if a more 'difficult' and 'unforgiving' game loses the difficulty category.

not to mention the fact that when D3 was released, the 'difficulty' of inferno was through the roof.

So Diablo 3 wins because it caters causal players and has no death penalty?LOL

I thought that was fair. Desync and the death penalty can be very frustrating especially when encountered at the same time. PoE would be a vastly improved game in my opinion if these two issues were fixed.

death penalty is not an 'issue'

I understand desync,but what's wrong with death penalty?

To me and many of my friends that quit PoE after spending hundreds of hours in PoE AND that's after spending over $200 supporting GGG. (eg just from our stash tabs each of us spent enough to buy diablo 4 times over... for each of us). I am pretty much the only one that's left because I dont know... maybe because I already spent hundreds of dollars supporting PoE.

All of them quit due to unbearable desyncs especially after experiencing the silky smooth gameplay that other ARPGs offers (like diablo 3 which is accurately and truthfully described in the comparo vs poe's desync hell beta gameplay)... yet Chris said they HAVE TO design PoE so it desync like a motherfucker because its "better design"...

edit: they quit a few months after PoE hit release... most of us were truthful in GGG fixing desyncs by release which never happened.

If you're feeling masochistic, head into Feedback and read the 55 page whinge session about how DeSync means there should be no XP loss on Death.

But the desyncs and death penalty is what makes PoE so hardcore... I guess...

lol the most repeated flaw of poe that was mentioned in that blog was the poe death penalty.
