I'd imagine this applies to any top-down game with continuous updates for loot and gameplay. Grim dawn is my favorite in this category.

Only played this game for a few hours 2 years ago, but even just starting out I was so excited playing it, so I can see why it can be very addictive

Great game handled very well. I played in the beta and the devs have always been very community focused. They do a great job with their microtransactions and keeping the procedural content pretty fresh with the leagues. Definitely a game I don't hesitate to recommend.

If you think wow isn't casual enough then to be perfectly honest, I don't think PoE will be casual enough for you. It's possible to play it in a casual manner, but you will definitely struggle and it could take you a really long time to make progress without digging into some of the technical side of things like builds, crafting, league mechanics, levelling tactics etc.). In my opinion, wow is quite easy to play casually as long as you're mainly interested in normal questing and the sorry side of things (that's how I always enjoyed wow in the past). On the other hand, while PoE's story is good, that's not why I play it at least.

However, it is still easily the best ARPG in my opinion, and is definitely good if you're looking to really get stuck into a game. I find it highly addictive in short (a few weeks at a time) bursts and love the depth to the game. The level of detail you can get into is impressive and is what gives the game longevity over other games like Diablo 3.

If you're after a more casual game, I'd suggest Diablo 3 or Grim Dawn, which are both great games that allow you to get stuck in and focus on killing monsters and progressing the campaign much quicker, and without a super steep learning curve.

ARPGs like PoE are too much about speed running and melting mobs nonstop. Not the direction I wanted to see the genre go after Diablo 2.

Great game... But if you want to play it.. well it isn't free. You need tabs.

I have tried PoE a few times and cannot get hooked on it. Just feels to much like a mobile game to me. It is weird how I can play Diablo 3 all day long but PoE, I last about a week or two.

May the Schwartz be with you!

I felt the same for a long time until I stated to dive deeper into the mechanics. Quite a high barrier of entry with this game as you have to be pretty invested in it before you even play it to get stuck in. For something to jump in quicker and have fun D3 is a better option for sure, or Grim Dawn.

Have an unknown amount of time (probably near 2k hours if not more) played at this point and new leagues are quite boring.
The game doesn't really allow you to just try random stupid stuff because the content is balanced around meta builds and you're effectively punished for trying anything else.
Also the harvest nerf basically crippled retention, as you have to either use sub-par crafting methods or buy your gear now.

I played PoE for approx 5 years, I've beat the game twice all the way through  on Standard mode, could never get far enough before a season ended.
 
I've got over 185 pages of inventory, lots of those pages are the 3 pages in 1 Inventory type - thousands of Exalted Orbs, Divine etc., used to trade a ton, have so much uber rare stuff it's cramming my inventory.
 
One of the big things that finally turned me away was getting all this crazy stuff, crafting a deadly build Witch with 120 minions trailing behind melting everything, was that as soon as the season ended, all the gear is useless, and you start all over again. Which is why eventually I just stayed grinding Standard Mode, and after beating it with a melee and summoning based character I was done - started a new game, on the beach and just went "not again" - and that's when I found Destiny 2. I so much want to find something like D2 without all the problems.
 
Having said that, I just couldn't face waking up on that Beach again, doing all the same stuff over and over again - game doesn't even start to really begin until you hit level 60 then it's a hard grind.
 
Great game, lots to enjoy for sure, major skill-tree learning curve...

Played PoE a few years back. From what I recall it was a hassle managing storage as a free player but I really really enjoyed the campaign. The music, voice acting, and story were all top notch. Could've easily become a standalone game.

PoE is an amazing game, for my time its the best ARPG available. It is f2p but there are premium stash tabs you have to buy (real money) if you want to be able to list/sell items effectively (in game currency), and its a game about killing and acquiring currency but you have to buy a currency tab if you want your currencies sorted neatly. So its more of a $15 game

I've found that PoE has been taking over my mind as of late. Like Diablo but better. Playing a necromancer with a hoard of minions is very fun, and the trade and drop system is pretty satisfying. So many minigames and replayability. The devs, GGG, seem like they've got a good thing going. Their microtransactions are pretty absurdly priced, though they are all cosmetic, so that's the only minor pitfall I can see. Having lots of fun with it after taking a long break.


Every update has a new genre to play

The disadvantage is that you have to keep retraining if you want to play new things

[報價=弗拉德茲]
PoE 是一款了不起的遊戲,在我看來,它是目前最好的 ARPG。它是 f2p,但如果您希望能夠有效地列出/出售物品(以遊戲貨幣),您必須購買高級藏匿標籤(真錢),這是一個關於殺死和獲取貨幣的遊戲,但您必須購買如果您希望您的貨幣整齊排列,則貨幣選項卡。所以它更像是一個 15 美元的遊戲


你可以用
