I love this game

TLDR: after all the disappointments of D3,D4, Poe2, i found this gem and i love it.

I just wanted to share my thoughts and experiences. I grew up playing Diablo 2 and was there for the release of Diablo 3. Unfortunately, I was deeply disappointed; D3 felt much easier and more casual, and its build system was far simpler than its predecessor. I tried to enjoy it, but I always felt like something was missing. During that time, I discovered Path of Exile (PoE) and felt like it was the true successor to Diablo 3. The complexity of the build system was invigorating, and it felt like the possibilities were endless. While the game had its flaws, like random one-shot deaths that often felt more unfair than challenging, I still found it superior to D3. However, I'm not the kind of gamer who can stick with the same title for a decade, so when Diablo 4 was announced, I was excited. Initially, it brought back the nostalgic atmosphere of Diablo 2, but after investing 50-100 hours, I realized the game was ultimately lackluster. The build system felt incredibly casual, reducing every character to a single mechanic: charge mana with a left click and unleash a burst with a right click. This felt like the laziest design effort imaginable. My disappointment level skyrocketed. Then, PoE2 was released, and I was overjoyed! I played 100-200 hours, but I quickly realized it wasn't as good as I had hoped—not because of its early access phase, but due to the lack of innovation compared to the original. Many of the mobs seemed copy-pasted, and the frustrating one-shot mechanics were still present. The ascendancy trials felt even more disappointing, and with every step I took in the game, it became clear that the developers didn't want players to fully enjoy the experience. Recently, I stumbled upon Last Epoch, and I can't believe someone created a game that is actually good. It's so underrated and brings a refreshing experience that I was desperately looking for!
