Creator here! Thank you greatly for watching this and helping my channel grow. This has been a truly life-changing experience and I’m super excited to continue growing and improving. Tala moana, exiles!
Part of why D4 is silent is because you have cross play. You can talk as much as you want, but don't expect a PS5 or Xboxer to plug in a keyboard to respond to you.
Tz andy is so broken… finishin holy-grails are, dare i say, easy now?…. hahaha
Seriously tho…. i did TZ Andy anywhere from players-3 to -7, but vast majority was at p-5… and over the course of just TWO WEEKS, at about 3-4 hours each day…(using the trick to change the tz to catacombs the whole time obviously)…
27:20 See that's one things that's annoying me slightly about the boss encounters they are showing from PoE2, all the arena/fight areas are TINY AF. Like you can barely even kite anything or avoid hits because you are immediately running into some wall. I'm not sure if the maps are just a bit more cramped this time around and so the random locations are often small, but its like boss fights in a maintenance closet, so restrictive.
i dont get after so many years people still back blizzard games best way to explain game choice is whatever blizzard does theres a better less greedy company out there who has just a superior game of the genre blizzard really had just warcraft and world of warcraft but it died now move on theres so much better games out there expand your mind and gain experience. Also theres this series of diablo 4 player tries path of exile for first time and it is so good hope someone can have asmon react to an episode
I've been on both sides. First time I tried the game I was overwhelmed and stopped only about mid-way through the chapters. Later however I found that I actually enjoy the complexity of PoE during my 2nd attempt at PoE, and eventually managed to reach lvl 100 on Solo Self-Found (SSF) mode (basically single player mode, no trades). The greatest challenge for me, and also both up/down sides of PoE, is that the Meta changes too often and things get nerfed too often. So as SSF I found that I had to pick a sub-par build that is viable but under the radar. I made it to maybe lvl 97 this way before finally getting hit by a nerf, and during the next 3 levels I've had to make sacrifices because as SSF player you can't just swap builds on a whim. But, overall I will say that PoE 1 (not even 2) is a much better game than Diablo 4. I never got sick of the game but did quit once I reached lvl 100 because I ended up with carpal tunnel trying to get to lvl 100 lol.
I remember the Mohawk Grenade that Mr. T would have in the old Warcraft commercials. I never played the game, never looked like I could understand it or like its gameplay loop.
I have issues with all available titles in the ARPG genre right now actually. Even with PoE and PoE2. Somehow, something is just off about all of them. Not the same thing of course but they each have massive issues, individually. PoE probably has the least issues but they're still there. So, well, I am hoping PoE2 will fix those issues but… I'm not holding my breath for it. From my perspective, there has never been an ARPG title which has been absolutely flawless. Not even Diablo 2: LoD. Although that did come reasonably close. But, it still had its issues. The perfect ARPG has, as of yet, never been created. If Last Epoch wasn't such a buggy mess of a game with netcode on the server side that is literally unusable junk, well… it may have had a shot.
One thing i do want to say, is that poeninja isn't even the best place to judge how good builds are because it's literally only the top of the top characters. You see the top like 10% CHARCTERS by exp in the league… from the hundreds of thousands of players and even more characters since a lot of people make more than 1. Like with what you showed, it showed 95k different characters… yet the amount of different skills people are using at the ENDGAME is MASSIVE. People are doing all sorts of crazy things and getting into the 90+ levels. Sure there might be things that get buffed or added that people flock too but there are many many more viable skills to use than people give credit because they only hear about what's "viable" by content creators that will always have their own opinions.
do people really think having damage numbers rendered on the screen would crash the game? rofl. The numbers are still being generated under the hood, it would add a little to the GPU rendering but not a ton.
llloooollll wow at the start was rubish, like seriously, i read a reviewv on games magazine about WoW, and i thought who would play this shit, it was so rubbish back then, silly cartooony graphics…. and we are talink about -98 or some shit
I finished my adventure with diablo 4 before the first season. I will come back maybe for season 7 and then 15. The game is boring and repetitive. I had more fun even in d3 and I feel sorry for every Euro spent and for the hype I bought the game pre-release.
I play on console.. so not sure its because of that, but I checked the game out for a few hours and actually didn't enjoy POE at all. Still prefer Diablo. Unpopular opinion but really feel POE is sooo overrrated.
The title sounds like you are mad, and PoE looks garbage vs diablo, even though diablo is fkd up. PoE looks very repetitive. Is that all u do is run dungeons?? I havent seen any other content from this game. Stop with the cap
diablo 4's issues to me is they tried to reinvent the wheel when all we wanted was diablo 2's mechanics improved with better graphics and continuing story. Diablo 4 feels like a mini mmo which is not diablo, diablo is suppose to be a DnD lite styled Arpg dungeon crawler.

Diablo 4 was not made for hardcore gamers. The games aren’t compatible except for nostalgia and being “ARPGs”
this is wat microsft paid 80 billion for lmao worst aquistion in gaming history
I am confused, how did watching this help you? He is literally reacting to someone else's content how how does that work

“D4 isn’t the worst game in existence” true but it’s one of the worst games released in 2023

Diablo 4 is trash and Diablo 3 trash

Gamer dads hit the walls too.

llloooollll wow at the start was rubish, like seriously, i read a reviewv on games magazine about WoW, and i thought who would play this shit, it was so rubbish back then, silly cartooony graphics…. and we are talink about -98 or some shit
Diablo 4 was a dead dream upon launch. Really not even worth talking about anymore.
Yes, agree want POE to have damage numbers.
2:34 Genius statement Asmongold
