IMO Path of Exile 2 is kind of like "Diablo 4 classic".

Sure it lack some QoL just because it wants to be old school but it nails the mood of the older Diablo games.

I also played Diablo 4 and there is no way I will return to that game. They clearly don't have a good formula anymore.

I've been jamming on poe2, and (to me) it feels like D2 resurrected, but with a bunch of extra content. Act biomes are identical, storyline is conceptually very close (chasing a corrupting force across the continent), look and feel, etc..

Also, it's too bad the VGAs don't have a "Stable Release" award, because, even being early access, the level of polish on POE2 is pretty amazing.
