Path of Exile open beta set for January

looked at all the skilles and they seem kinda lame

fireball oooh how about blessed hammers or something cool like that

still going to get it

Anyone who seriously believes that torchlight 2 or poe is better than diablo 3, is trolling...

This is a hell of a lot more like Diablo 2 than Diablo 3. I finished the campaign on the regular difficulty and can attest to this.

The currency in game involves trading trinkets that themselves have uses (for example a bow may cost 2 orbs of transmutation, which can be used as currency or used to convert items).

There is no gold system, which is interesting, but does in fact eliminate traditional inflation/deflation economics (at least for now, not sure how it will play out with orbs).

I just have one thing to say Path of Exile and Torchlight 2 both are copies from Diablo III doesn´t matter what kind of diferent or special options could have in that games..

A question for those who have played the closed beta: call me anti-social, but I like to play alone most of them times, especially this kind of game so can I do that or are some dungeons restricted or too hard for just 1 person (for example like in World of Warcraft) ?

Paaying the closed beta. Being a Diablo 3 and Torchlight 2 player since there launch i agree with aovannor in reference to the POV. int could be a little lower and give just a little more view of the field.

This is a great  game: My only problem is the lack of set items. Im a loot fiend - i like to complete visually appealing sets. Give it! 

AaaaHA! HEY GUYS! GUUUYS!*motions over to Blizzard*I found the visuals for Diablo! Come on!

Blizzard: F*ck that noise

Me: O.O

I've played this game to death and I love it. It has three main problems; armor variety, Free For All loot and the view.

There is a lot of armor but it all looks kinda gritty..maybe thats the tone of the game or maybe they will add more. The game's view is a little too steep and a little too close in, I hope they are going to change this but it's not a deal breaker. The FFA loot is the game breaker for me.. you will NOT want to group in this game until they do something about it, with the communities reaction to it they are almost certainly working on fixing this. If they don't they are shooting themselves in the foot. 

Other than that though this is an amazing Arpg with more customization options than you could ever want. Take a look on the website at the passive skill system.. read about how you slot ALL skills into items (don't want a shield bash skill when you dont have a shield on? No problem! Slot the shield bash in the shield itself!) It does a lot of unique things and it does them extremely well. If they fix the glaring issues it will probably be the best arpg on the market.

the resemblance to what I thought D3 would look like is...uncanny lol

I played this during closed beta, and it was an amazing title that provides the gameplay experience Diablo 3 stubbornly refused to provide. I'm getting kind of sick of these pointless delays, though. Originally, the website said open beta would start in summer 2012, and then October 2012. It's a free to play game, start the open beta earlier, don't wipe characters, and balance as you go.

hmm is this supposed to be like Diablo 2 style or something? Id be interested to hear more..

Been following this game for quite awhile now, can't wait for Open Beta.

Me like

Hardcore RPG character customization, PvP ? 

Diablo 3 doesn't have that. 

Bought into the closed beta, pretty fun game. I'd reccomend it.
