What games don't do this?
It is incredibly difficult to maintain the willing suspension of nihilism in the face of Path of Exile's cynical Pavlovian style gameplay cycle.
ARPGs in general are incredibly degenerate in terms of design, where the goal is to avoid having to play the game, and the meta-goal is to take this as far as logically possible to the point where you don't interact with the actual game part of the video game at all, and instead develop your skill at sifting through garbage in order to find good items and builds.
You're really talking like a gay right now. Just want you to know that. Also, not all ARPGs are the same as path of exile.

bros
what's happening
You'll get bored of the cycle eventually
Hence why people only play this shit for like a month into a new league before dropping it till the next league
Kek the latest league mechanic has been so bad that people are quitting already and they've just extended the league until December 15th
Homogenisation. D3 unironically has more build diversity than PoE
>D3 unironically has more build diversity than PoE
Damn, you could just tell us you know nothing about PoE, you don't have to say moronic shit like this.
you need to try a bit harder
aww yeh? anyway, check out this rolling bear.
>add a standard gold currency
>it still takes up a slot in the inventory
why wouldn't it?
>She doesn't know about berandus coins
fricking secondaries.
>gold
>dodge roll
They really should abandon div cards being tied to specific maps.
are you moronic?
says the moron.
dumbest thing I ever read.
PoE isn't really a game. It's just an addiction simulator. Not even the most mentally ill PooEchud would admit they play that garbage for the "gameplay"
theorycrafting is the most fun part
then playing the functioning build for a few dozen hours is really fun too
too bad there is few hundred hours of grinding between them
Filtered.
MY GAME
There should be a single Exalted Orb at the end, give the man some credit.
>all true and it's still somehow better than diablo iv
grim
sounds KINO
how dilator with its mmo rotations are doing?
Filtered.
Sounds like a (you) problem
you forgot the part where it runs like shite
this game only survives because it's pretty much the ONLY game in the genre
might give grim dawn a chance one of these days thoughst
