Slower? I tried to speedrun PoE once and because of a build mistake in Chapter 2 Act 3 it took me 14 hours to beat the base game before maps. Terrible time, but still.
I spent way way way too many hours playing D2. Path of Exile is a great choice to fill that gap. Just do homework for a little bit before diving in if you give it a shot. Leveling builds and def use a guide.
Path of Exile.
PoE 2 announced a couple years ago and should be launching soon, pretty much the same stuff on a new engine.
It seems like it’ll actually be radically different, and there’s no way it’s coming out until like at least 2026.
All of the promotional footage I’ve seen for it looked indiscernible from PoE 1 gameplay and graphics but maybe that’s due to ongoing development.
It’s actually an upgraded version of the same engine, and Path of Exile 1 is getting a lot of the new tech backported.
It was originally supposed to replace Path of Exile 1, but now they are going to exist together.
2 will be more refined and slower, with a brand new story and 6 new acts. Should be a fun time.

I believe the acts themselves will be longer and more fleshed out but there’s less of them.
6 acts in Path of Exile 2 instead of the 10 acts that PoE1 has.
