I’m mildly interested in this game, but the immense praise it received makes me weirdly wary of it. Is it actually THAT good? I’m a bit concerned that it won’t live up to my expectations.

Path of Exile 2, the 0.4.0 patch. It’s kinda like the blue/red pill situation. Take the blue pill and enjoy any class, soaking in the pretty animations and visual effects. Feel the “weight” of your movement, actions, and decisions as the vision of the game designers is ruthlessly materializing after one year of early access.

Or just click pathfinder and blast through the game thanks to immense QOL and easily accessible power creep.
