Path of Exile is solid. I've played both games though and Diablo 3 edges it out in about every conceiveable way. Diablo has better questing, lore, graphics, animations, combat etc. It's big selling point is the talent tree and even that seems to be a bit of a gimic. Yes, it's a huge talent tree but it's not that great. It doesn't open up completely new abilities and such from what I could see. It will augment the amount of damage you do with certain types of weapons, your resistance to fire, lightning etc. mostly all passive effects.
My god. Same old same old. Diablo 3 is a good game. Yes, your abilities automatically unlock as you level but as you gain more and more of them you have the choice to use the abilities that you want to use. Furthermore, you can augment them with Rune's which can go anywhere from being a minor to very significant change to its ability. In the end, with Diablo 2 people went with the cookie cutter builds 90% of the time anyway which took away the customization that seemed to be there.
