Tip for beginners starting poe journey the 6th. If you bought the $30 supporter pack, save the 300 coins for stash tabs. Every 3 weeks the stash tabs go on sale so save them until then. You will be able to buy all the stash tabs you need, and if you dont want to spend another dollar on the game again, you dont have to.
We won't need a map tab with 2, right? Since maps are not items anymore. That is huge if so, the map tab is both essential and one of the most expensive tabs in PoE1.
im full Diablo 4 at this moment and i will try PoE 2 for the first time, it will be a long journey but hopefully i can experience the best and the worst from both. All this nonesense drama is necessary for us customers to gain so do what you gotta do.
@@diegovidal1172 Welcome, I was an avid diablo player and only joined poe 2 yrs ago, I never pay attention to drama since I can say I played both, but my gaming time has started to be filled with poe and kinda gave up on D4. I hope you will enjoy the improved version as much as I did.✌️ ( If you look for a direction a streamer called Pohx and Zizaran helped me out allot when I joined) I even joined another Poe streamer called Zish who inspected my build and it was probably the best laugh him and his chat got, he was stunned that I made it to lvl 92 with that build xd, after that he explained in detail what I'm doing wrong and his community even started messaging me offering me items to help me out, is a great community, one of the best I've seen.
My coworker is 56, he played diablo when I wasn't born, he played with his son when diablo first came out and he plays with his son d4 now. But even he who was a die hard fan complains about d4, makes a nice work convo. I told him to try poe 2 but he saw poe 1 and said is too much for him and the graphics are not great in poe 1 (in his words), so I kinda gave up. Today when I went to work he jumped on me like a kid and asked me if I watched poe 2 Livestream, I said yeah, and he started telling me how he watched 5 hrs of it from different RUclipsrs, and how he can't wait for December 6th. He told me he called his son and they are both so excited to play it. But the most interesting fact from this is how much he started hating on diablo, he ranted the whole day how diablo is light years behind, how big of a difference it is. I couldn't believe it honestly but I'll take it. My point from this little thing is, I played diablo since I was a kid, but after poe I can never go back, and even this guy who played it with his son sitting in his lap for longer than my entire life switched so hard. If you think the og fans will not give up on diablo for poe, you are coping hard, is season 7 and is the same boring shit, diablo does not have the diablo like. Is made by a team pushed by deadlines and greed, which is not allowed to have imagination and is not allowed to break rules. Is a husk and it will end up worse than d3. That tweet shows what type of people run it.
Diablo fans of the first hour know how much passion and dedication GGG has put into PoE over the years and that it was heavily influenced by D2, so most of us will gladly try out PoE2. I quit D3 when it became too crazy for me with all the rift speed runs and one skill spamming. Didn't plan to play D4 initially, because I thought I was done with ARPGs ... then I played the D4 pre-lunch test for 24h and was completely sucked back into it. Everybody was hyped about D4 at the start and it took a while until we realized how many bugs this game had and that it was unfinished in many areas. We'll see how PoE2 looks in 2 months. I'm optimistic that GGG is the more competent team, but if we actually like their design remains to be seen. I recently played D2r again. Back in the days I was crazy about D2. Today it feels to me like hard work with a lot of missing QoL features, but it still has a great atmosphere. Tbh I don't think I can go back to these days, so I hope PoE2 won't become a game were I feel the same pain.
Ofc i started with D2 back i nthe day.... but the freedom that POE gave us is unrivaled.... every league, they think up some silly power increase, change some thing, and just give you systems to mess around with.... they dont mind if you create a godmode build, they will nerf it for next league, but for now? enjoy your creation!.... they admit often enough that they dont really know what interactions with different systems will do or what people might find... "Here, some silly systems, have fun!" - PoE devs Probably.
As a 25 yr diablo fan playing Diablo when I was a kid, I would say it is time to quit Diablo 4. The greater affix gear system is a joke comparing to Diablo 2. The latest potion/life bug is the last nail on the coffin. After so many years, the devs still don't understand why players like to play the diablo series.
I mean Rod isn't wrong. GGG are known D2 lovers and PoE was made in the shadow of it, but it's now a story of the apprentice has now become the master.
@@Maususakit’s true in the sense d3 and d4 are not Diablo like. They are isometric arpgs but lack the atmosphere loot and levelling of a proper Diablo game like d1 and d2
15:35 you hit the nail on the head. Blizzard focuses a lot on campaigns and cutscenes - and I love those - but their endgame lacks. PoE 1 had the opposite problem. Endgame was great but the campaign sucked and they refused to let us skip it. Hopefully PoE 2's campaign is much, much better than the first time around, but regardless I will continue to play D4 on new season / expansion launches just to keep up with the story because I really enjoy Diablo lore. It's somewhat of a blessing that D4's endgame sucks, because I can look forward to playing for a week or two every time there's a new launch and then go back to grinding in PoE.
The early game in D4 is actually pretty similar to PoE2: long, slow fights, where you actually use more than 2 active skills and elite mobs are dangerous
They are different games for different people and they can coexist just fine. More casual people that just want to hop in and blast aren't going to be sticking with PoE.
And yet, Rods tweet got how many to rant on about D4, D4 vs Poe2, etc. But he made huge publicity by one games release and one tweet. Genius! All this free marketing because people are trying to manufactor a competition between D4 and PoE2. Let me ask those that believe in this b.s. Does McDonalds have to compete with a mom and pops burger shop opening another second location? I'm not sure why all this D4 bad, yeah it isnt perfect. But why hating or dredging up a phony competition? All I can assume is either some get compensated by GGG, possibly promoting to lure more money to help improve the game, or most probable, these content creators hype up the phony competition for their channels to gain more subscribers. These videos are so lame.
@CCSplinters well, probably not a genius but used it to get publicity or at least seems like it. I just think if we're all about PoE than just forget about D4. That's all, don't give them any free press. Take it or leave it. I want games like PoE to succeed because that's where Diablo came from [that type of beginning]. Let it thrive on it own and not off the back or tail coat of a gaming company that some believe is letting fans down and is failing in general. Let it die dont feed the beast.
Rax is right, i mean, you grind weeks over weeks to p300 and what you get is the ugliest mount in the game, for me it seams they misprogramed it with the mount ( tiger ) for 50 undercity runs
Ive been playing bliz games since diablo 2 release and a wow vet for 20 years. I tried poe 1 wayyyy back in 2014 and i thought it was awesome, But fan bois will fan boi. I wont be leaving Diablo 4. I may look at POE2 but ill forever be a diablo addict. Diablo wont die as long as im around
Same here, first played D2 demo in 2001, so a little later than launch but I loved it ever since. That said, it was a little too time consuming for my taste to actually complete a character journey. D3 fixed that and D4 is a mix of the two - but guess what, Path of Exile has elements literally copied from those two games. Sure they expanded on that but it may be a little easier to paint a house than build it from scratch.
@@lucianbirlan5726D2 is still considered one of the best arpgs for a reason. The whole point is that many people don't want a house built from scratch. Taking elements of D2 and iterating on them is what people want, not completely reinventing the game every time. The entire reason PoE exists in the first place is because the original developers thought that D3 strayed too far away from what they loved about D2.
Im 40... got 3 kids... two of which are under 2 years old... i will definitely be playing POE2! Got 1300 hours into D4 so no hate for that game but come on Dec 6th!
I look at it differently. There is CO OP play via a Xbox for example my family Brother, Dad will definitely play it due to CO OP. Which I believe is HUGE
Blizzard doesn’t focus on the story. It’s not great and no one does it more than once. They focus on people that play 60 min per day max but ignoring your die hards is stupid. The reason they made SB op but ignored other classes is only die hards play alts and they ignore what that group wants because they think they’ll always come back but poe2 means they won’t so maybe now they’ll focus on endgame and class balance or they’ll turn into what has been.
That is not true, I am more of what you would call a casual and I finished the campaign with SB, did not like it that much, made a new Barb, and already got the Mythics I wanted for a decent endgame, and now I build on that. And mind you, there are 4 Mythics for a classic Barb experience. It is annoying seeing SB clear the room in no time, but it is the face of the expansion so it was to be expected. It doesn’t mean you cannot have fun with your class though. This is PvE not PvP.
@@lucianbirlan5726you are watching a youtube video about d4 drama, talking about making 2 characters in a season and knowing how many mythics work for a class. You aren't casual. Casual gamers who d4 is aimed at is not even aware poe2 had a reveal. They don't know what this tweet is aimed at. You are the hardcore player for d4, unfortunately anyone who plays more than you has nothing to do and the game isn't made for them.
I remember when I was lining up for d3 release I had a conversation with the one ahead me that he was planning to play the game and plan to recoup the game purchase and earn for selling items in Market Store. As a d1 and d2 fan that made me think was this even game made for me. Time to dust that arpg itch and start playing PoE2.
Spent time on Collecting items for build and Blizard do patch and destroy build and my time and everything ! really wasn't planning on buying POE2 but Blizzard forced me to buy it with destroying builds . the worse thing for me is that you have one common box for all the characters. that's why I only play with one character because I don't have room in the box for the other items, the characters that I would play by myself
Been playing diablo since the original dropped in 97. I'm a dad gamer now but it looks like poe 2 is where my time is going to spent. Hopefully blizzard will learn a hard lesson and go back to making games for the gamers. Competition isn't always a bad thing.
@Rob2628 Wann kommt denn bei dir 4k UHD Stream? Spiele wie PoE2 sind da weiter und dein 1080p Stream bildet das natürlich visuell einfach nicht ab. Es wäre schön wenn du da nachlegen würdest... LG Rabbitbear 😎
they don't really hate, its just memes. memes for both games are much needed compared to HD2 or Space marine 2 meme videos. i appreciate more DIablo and poe memes
Reading between the lines “off camera” you can hear it in your voice. POE2 just is more well crafted with care than a game that shoves everything into a store front and calls it a day.
Thank you Rob for being the voice of reason. We can always count on you to be reasonable and not just jump on the d bag gas bandwagon. I'm excited for both games, give credit where it's due, but recognize rod could have had more tact( really who cares though he also has a point). Keep keeping it real Rob GG!..G?
I cannot wait to play something with an endgame that is not virtually nonexistent. May come back for new seasons. Who knows, maybe it'll give blizzard a kick in the ass.
People like you are the problem. D4 is a bad game, don't try and pretend it's just "different" or "casual" or whatever, it's bad, it has badly designed systems and no content. It's not poe vs diablo, it's good vs bad, and D4 is firmly in the bad catergory.
If I can use PoE 1 as a template, I think you can, but it depends on what your properly means. You don't have to do everything, you can choose one or two things, most people don't engage with every mechanic anyway since you probably can't enjoy every single one.
Yep. I'm a long time player so your mileage will greatly vary but I'd play 2-3 hours a day after work during league launches and have WAY WAY more money and better gear than people complaining on reddit that they only had 5 exalted orbs or whatever. Experience trumps time.
I personaly will never probably play PoE2. But I realy want them to succes. To make D4 better for everyone. We needed this competition so hard. Especially after this half-baked 5/10 DLC in price of full game...
sooo glad i didnt waste my money on that so called trash DLC.. psh poe2 shits all over it and its FREE, even then im going to give them the 30 $ bilzzz wanted LOL..
That comments from Rob either means: "I have forgotten what is a diablo-like since diablo 2", or " The Diablo-like term should only be defined by diablo releases, no matter how far they stray from the original definition" It's like, the amount of respect he would have gotten for just saying congratulation has no meaning to him. That's how you know he is driven only by selfish motives and don't care about games or gamers.
So you are not selfish for wanting Diablo to be a certain way? The game evolved a lot in later releases and allowed more people to join, I think that is great.
@@lucianbirlan5726You are more selfish for implying that people have to like Diablo games just because it's a Diablo game. Let people like what they like. If you like how much more accessible and casual D4 is, that's great. Your opinion is just as valid as anyone else's. The thing is that in order to make the game more accessible, they dumbed down many aspects of things that people enjoyed about the series prior.
It seems im ok on not spending anymore money in games for the next year: -Path of Exile 2 -Wukong -Warhammer 40,000 -Darkest Dungeon 2 -V Rising -New World -Rogue Lords -Balatro Im a happy gamer
D4's endgame is just a very repetitive loot piñata with almost no worthwhile loot to seek, while PoE2 seems like it will continue throwing challenging stuff at you for a while after the end game while having huge amounts of rewards. And its free!! With no P2W microtransactions! Seriously, this might bet the F2P game of the century.
lets face it Poe is much better in all aspects exept graphics ( poe1) compare to D4, the onny positive about D4 tho is its much easier for a casual player, i talk as someone who played both games for at least 3 years, but now if poe dev claims are true that they made poe 2 more casual friendly the playerbase prolly gonna skyrocket
What’s hilarious is even after poe2 comes out and does good. These kids, these I hate blizzard cry babies will still complain and whine about Diablo 4 and blizzard. lol. Both games will do great things in 2025 LFG!
At this point in time, Diablo doesn't need defenders. hard to defend a dead product. We all know their are creators that Blizzard pays to stream Diablo, that is confirmed, common practice in gaming. Blizzard hasnt learned. When you spend a year fixing a game because you are so out of touch with your community, you dont deserve anymore chances or the respect of the community. Best thing they could do is lie down and die, and start over. You overcharge for your product, ignore the community. Im glad POE 2 came and took our breathe away, finally can support a Dev who cares about their community and product. Blizzard doesnt deserve my time or money, and they will never get it again. You say they can both exist, but in a year, i doubt D4 will.
Rob u gotta stop defending Blizz. We get it, they want the casuals but stop acting like we can’t have a end game in D4 as well as a causal friendly game. It doesn’t have to be one or the other. This is why ppl think Blizz is a shell of themselves, which they are
the main mistake you made this year Rob was putting all your eggs in the D4 basket and not even trying POE. Settlers of Kalgur was the perfect opportunity for you. your a good creator , but you look like a bit of a turncoat and a hypocrite with all your POE2 enthusiasm. The other OG D4 fanboy creators saw the light alot earlier and have been playing POE for a year. In the new year you will be done with D4 season 7 in 1-2 weeks and you'll be back playing POE2 early acsess beacuse you'll have finally tasted what a real modern ARPG is like and you'll have seen the light yourself. Welcome aboard sir. Let go of the copium
D4 sucks, which sucks for me, cause I sunk hours in this lifeless game. They had their chance, and we still don't have an armory this moment. 3000 Duriel runs is peak gameplay, amirite? GG KTHXBAI
Rob why are you being so defensive? Concerned that D4 revenue is finally coming to an end? LOL ... I am looking forward to being an EX diablo player and getting in on the "EXILE LIKE" train.
Unpopular opinion: He’s not wrong tho. POE is inspired by Diablo. POE 2 sorcerer is pretty much Diablo with the same gameplay and even the names are the same (POE didn’t even at least rename them- the only difference is POE is just with fancier animation). I even saw spiritborn evade’s animation during that POE reveal too. It’s too bad- I wished POE at least had their own original sorcerer gameplays- rather than copying the basis of diablo’s sorcerer gameplay. POE 2 “blood maiden” looks exactly the same as D4’s blood maiden. This is why Diablo will never be called “POE-like” and POE will always be in the shadow of Diablo. People can talk shit about diablo all they like. But the truth is: If there was no diablo, then POE wouldn’t exist. As a player of both games- I enjoy both of them the same.
I guess blizzard is so upset that they can't touch women anymore anytime they like they don't bother to make good gams anymore then attack other companies who do.
We have to be honest: D4 looks better visually than PoE2. It's also easier to understand, which means it will always attract new players who don't want to dive headfirst into the hardcore grind of the game.
@@VitalieC bro you need to decide. do you want to be honest or lie to yourself that d4 looks better visually?. because some of the reworked areas in poe1 already look better than d4. not to mention the animations. ever looked what the sorc does when you run while casting in d4? her upper and lower body are disconected and do different animations. lower body is running upper body is stiff and doing a stand stil casting animation. so yeah. lets be honest here my dude
Thanks for watching and posting a video dude I really appreciate it like always, ill see you in PoE2 my dude!!!

@@lucianbirlan5726D2 is still considered one of the best arpgs for a reason. The whole point is that many people don't want a house built from scratch. Taking elements of D2 and iterating on them is what people want, not completely reinventing the game every time. The entire reason PoE exists in the first place is because the original developers thought that D3 strayed too far away from what they loved about D2.
Getting the first Mythic is enough endgame for most D4 players ^^
Poe-like is now the way i will call diablo
Just bought the $30 supporter pack on Xbox can’t wait to play
D4 is the new diablo like, POE2 will have its own thing.
Im 40... got 3 kids... two of which are under 2 years old... i will definitely be playing POE2! Got 1300 hours into D4 so no hate for that game but come on Dec 6th!
I look at it differently. There is CO OP play via a Xbox for example my family Brother, Dad will definitely play it due to CO OP. Which I believe is HUGE
Blizzard doesn’t focus on the story. It’s not great and no one does it more than once. They focus on people that play 60 min per day max but ignoring your die hards is stupid. The reason they made SB op but ignored other classes is only die hards play alts and they ignore what that group wants because they think they’ll always come back but poe2 means they won’t so maybe now they’ll focus on endgame and class balance or they’ll turn into what has been.
That is not true, I am more of what you would call a casual and I finished the campaign with SB, did not like it that much, made a new Barb, and already got the Mythics I wanted for a decent endgame, and now I build on that. And mind you, there are 4 Mythics for a classic Barb experience. It is annoying seeing SB clear the room in no time, but it is the face of the expansion so it was to be expected. It doesn’t mean you cannot have fun with your class though. This is PvE not PvP.
@@lucianbirlan5726you are watching a youtube video about d4 drama, talking about making 2 characters in a season and knowing how many mythics work for a class.
You aren't casual. Casual gamers who d4 is aimed at is not even aware poe2 had a reveal. They don't know what this tweet is aimed at.
You are the hardcore player for d4, unfortunately anyone who plays more than you has nothing to do and the game isn't made for them.
I remember when I was lining up for d3 release I had a conversation with the one ahead me that he was planning to play the game and plan to recoup the game purchase and earn for selling items in Market Store. As a d1 and d2 fan that made me think was this even game made for me. Time to dust that arpg itch and start playing PoE2.
The Diablo 4 expansion has essentially undermined itself, and there’s no one else to blame.
Not a bait here but like this comments if you will be dedicating more time to POE 2. Im trying to see something
Spent time on Collecting items for build and Blizard do patch and destroy build and my time and everything ! really wasn't planning on buying POE2 but Blizzard forced me to buy it with destroying builds .
the worse thing for me is that you have one common box for all the characters. that's why I only play with one character because I don't have room in the box for the other items, the characters that I would play by myself
This is the "dont you guys have phones" of 2024
Been playing diablo since the original dropped in 97. I'm a dad gamer now but it looks like poe 2 is where my time is going to spent. Hopefully blizzard will learn a hard lesson and go back to making games for the gamers. Competition isn't always a bad thing.
@Rob2628 Wann kommt denn bei dir 4k UHD Stream? Spiele wie PoE2 sind da weiter und dein 1080p Stream bildet das natürlich visuell einfach nicht ab. Es wäre schön wenn du da nachlegen würdest... LG Rabbitbear 😎
they don't really hate, its just memes. memes for both games are much needed compared to HD2 or Space marine 2 meme videos. i appreciate more DIablo and poe memes
Even though game is hard, but I am willing to learn.
Reading between the lines “off camera” you can hear it in your voice. POE2 just is more well crafted with care than a game that shoves everything into a store front and calls it a day.
That AI song at the end was fire
Thank you Rob for being the voice of reason. We can always count on you to be reasonable and not just jump on the d bag gas bandwagon. I'm excited for both games, give credit where it's due, but recognize rod could have had more tact( really who cares though he also has a point). Keep keeping it real Rob GG!..G?
I cannot wait to play something with an endgame that is not virtually nonexistent. May come back for new seasons. Who knows, maybe it'll give blizzard a kick in the ass.
We need Diablo as the gateway drug, that “My Fisher Price First AARPG” to warm people up for the real deal.
Rob when you start PoE2 you have to dress up like the warrior in that band line up 😂 playing that fat bass guitar
I will play D4 seasonal or dlc and PoE 2. With PoE's depth it will keep me busy in between D4 content. We can have both. It's not a vs situation guys.
People like you are the problem. D4 is a bad game, don't try and pretend it's just "different" or "casual" or whatever, it's bad, it has badly designed systems and no content. It's not poe vs diablo, it's good vs bad, and D4 is firmly in the bad catergory.
Cant wait to see "Why I dislike PoE2" video from d4 die hards in coming weeks lol.
my beloved rob join poe
If I can only play 1-2 hours per day, I wonder if I will be able to play PoE properly.
If I can use PoE 1 as a template, I think you can, but it depends on what your properly means. You don't have to do everything, you can choose one or two things, most people don't engage with every mechanic anyway since you probably can't enjoy every single one.
Yep. I'm a long time player so your mileage will greatly vary but I'd play 2-3 hours a day after work during league launches and have WAY WAY more money and better gear than people complaining on reddit that they only had 5 exalted orbs or whatever. Experience trumps time.
This video cooked 🤣
Truth Hurts bro
Oooh, Rob, you're the guy that likes oatmeal, right?!
I personaly will never probably play PoE2. But I realy want them to succes. To make D4 better for everyone. We needed this competition so hard. Especially after this half-baked 5/10 DLC in price of full game...
Ppl keep adding gasoline to fire, because Diablo will not get better until POE 2 forces them to!
Diablo stopped caring about endgame , the initial purchase of the game is what they want these days
Path of exile= Chess
D4= I can’t even call it checkers but something on a lower lvl
TIC-TAC-TOE: drunk edition.🤣
Connect Four.
WELCOME BACK YOU FRIGGIN TRAITORS!
sooo glad i didnt waste my money on that so called trash DLC.. psh poe2 shits all over it and its FREE, even then im going to give them the 30 $ bilzzz wanted LOL..
Cool story no one cares
You bragging that you are broke?
@@ZeusyZeusI care lol
I just bought it, I'm enjoying it so much 😁
@@eldarm434 Do you brag about paying for shit, money?
Abandon ship bois...,D4 ship is broken beyond repair.
POE2 is on the horizon
Diablo gotta become more path of exile -like is the problem lol
That comments from Rob either means:
"I have forgotten what is a diablo-like since diablo 2",
or
" The Diablo-like term should only be defined by diablo releases, no matter how far they stray from the original definition"
It's like, the amount of respect he would have gotten for just saying congratulation has no meaning to him. That's how you know he is driven only by selfish motives and don't care about games or gamers.
So you are not selfish for wanting Diablo to be a certain way? The game evolved a lot in later releases and allowed more people to join, I think that is great.
@@lucianbirlan5726You are more selfish for implying that people have to like Diablo games just because it's a Diablo game. Let people like what they like. If you like how much more accessible and casual D4 is, that's great. Your opinion is just as valid as anyone else's. The thing is that in order to make the game more accessible, they dumbed down many aspects of things that people enjoyed about the series prior.
Finally
don't forget bois , poe2 and all it's upcoming expansions are free ...
Rob completely ignoring asmongold is hilarious.
Rob pls stay in diablo. D4 needs you, community needs you. Thx
It seems im ok on not spending anymore money in games for the next year:
-Path of Exile 2
-Wukong
-Warhammer 40,000
-Darkest Dungeon 2
-V Rising
-New World
-Rogue Lords
-Balatro
Im a happy gamer
Rob coping so much in this video he’s sure Diablo will be the main villain in his game at one point 😂😂😂
D4's endgame is just a very repetitive loot piñata with almost no worthwhile loot to seek, while PoE2 seems like it will continue throwing challenging stuff at you for a while after the end game while having huge amounts of rewards.
And its free!! With no P2W microtransactions! Seriously, this might bet the F2P game of the century.
Brother are you really comparing expansion launch with game release ? Do i have to remind you how bad D4 launch was ?
Sure it's out of cemtext for the Germans. LEL!
I put D4 in wishlist I was about to give it shot, but after this tweet from Rod, hell nah!.
Someone is sold to poe 😅
lets face it Poe is much better in all aspects exept graphics ( poe1) compare to D4, the onny positive about D4 tho is its much easier for a casual player, i talk as someone who played both games for at least 3 years, but now if poe dev claims are true that they made poe 2 more casual friendly the playerbase prolly gonna skyrocket
Big Mac Gamer 😂😂😂
Its not Diablo-like its Exile-like as its Based on the first game...
What’s hilarious is even after poe2 comes out and does good. These kids, these I hate blizzard cry babies will still complain and whine about Diablo 4 and blizzard. lol. Both games will do great things in 2025 LFG!
I don't think Poe fans have much reason to cry right now, my friend.
At this point in time, Diablo doesn't need defenders. hard to defend a dead product. We all know their are creators that Blizzard pays to stream Diablo, that is confirmed, common practice in gaming. Blizzard hasnt learned. When you spend a year fixing a game because you are so out of touch with your community, you dont deserve anymore chances or the respect of the community. Best thing they could do is lie down and die, and start over. You overcharge for your product, ignore the community. Im glad POE 2 came and took our breathe away, finally can support a Dev who cares about their community and product. Blizzard doesnt deserve my time or money, and they will never get it again. You say they can both exist, but in a year, i doubt D4 will.
I doubt this One Will exist actually 😂
I will be playing Diablo season seven and if they come out with a new expansion next year, I also will be buying that
diablo 4 team cant even add SSF
14:06 me
Rob u gotta stop defending Blizz. We get it, they want the casuals but stop acting like we can’t have a end game in D4 as well as a causal friendly game. It doesn’t have to be one or the other. This is why ppl think Blizz is a shell of themselves, which they are
D4 won't die just because its a simple game and its casual/newbie friendly because of that. Still PoE > D4
the main mistake you made this year Rob was putting all your eggs in the D4 basket and not even trying POE. Settlers of Kalgur was the perfect opportunity for you. your a good creator , but you look like a bit of a turncoat and a hypocrite with all your POE2 enthusiasm. The other OG D4 fanboy creators saw the light alot earlier and have been playing POE for a year. In the new year you will be done with D4 season 7 in 1-2 weeks and you'll be back playing POE2 early acsess beacuse you'll have finally tasted what a real modern ARPG is like and you'll have seen the light yourself. Welcome aboard sir. Let go of the copium
Based Patches
rob gonna get filtered out anyways in poe2, theres no way d4 brain can handle poe 2
Obviously, he cherry picked stuff. Diablo four is not dead and Diablo four is not cooked. Diablo four will be just fine. I’ll be playing both.
POE 1, was so slooooooow, and with paytowin, dunno about the 2
D4 sucks, which sucks for me, cause I sunk hours in this lifeless game. They had their chance, and we still don't have an armory this moment. 3000 Duriel runs is peak gameplay, amirite? GG KTHXBAI
Please don’t touch this game, you broke d4
D4 was never born so it cant die. Just another over priced game, Can't wait to rock PoE 2 💪💪
Rob why are you being so defensive? Concerned that D4 revenue is finally coming to an end? LOL ... I am looking forward to being an EX diablo player and getting in on the "EXILE LIKE" train.
Unpopular opinion: He’s not wrong tho. POE is inspired by Diablo. POE 2 sorcerer is pretty much Diablo with the same gameplay and even the names are the same (POE didn’t even at least rename them- the only difference is POE is just with fancier animation). I even saw spiritborn evade’s animation during that POE reveal too. It’s too bad- I wished POE at least had their own original sorcerer gameplays- rather than copying the basis of diablo’s sorcerer gameplay. POE 2 “blood maiden” looks exactly the same as D4’s blood maiden.
This is why Diablo will never be called “POE-like” and POE will always be in the shadow of Diablo. People can talk shit about diablo all they like. But the truth is: If there was no diablo, then POE wouldn’t exist.
As a player of both games- I enjoy both of them the same.
I don't see anything that is similar, the fact that classes call each other the same within a genre is nothing new.
I hate to break this to you, but Diablo in no way invented the sorcerer archetype. That has existed since pen and paper rpgs in the 70s and 80s.
I guess blizzard is so upset that they can't touch women anymore anytime they like they don't bother to make good gams anymore then attack other companies who do.
give me salt!
d4 rip
nah, both games will be fighting for the top but D4 only goes up and down like any other game during his peak and bored era.
We have to be honest: D4 looks better visually than PoE2. It's also easier to understand, which means it will always attract new players who don't want to dive headfirst into the hardcore grind of the game.
@@VitalieC bro you need to decide. do you want to be honest or lie to yourself that d4 looks better visually?. because some of the reworked areas in poe1 already look better than d4. not to mention the animations. ever looked what the sorc does when you run while casting in d4? her upper and lower body are disconected and do different animations. lower body is running upper body is stiff and doing a stand stil casting animation.
so yeah. lets be honest here my dude
@@gandi8959 this is delusional as fuck.
@@VitalieC d4 looks better, you're not serious, are you? play poe 2 and then say that again.
D4 BAD > D4 DED DEC 6 :)
Rob, this is a masterclass in towing the line. Cant wait to see you ingame you POE2 SUPERFAN
