POE2 “Diablo-Like” Reactions: Hype, Spite, and Switches
By POE2 “Diablo-Like” Reactions: Hype, Spite, and Switches
- Rod Ferguson’s “Diablo-like” tweet sparks satire and genre talk.
- Creators hype POE2’s depth and endgame versus Diablo 4.
- Only real “issue” called out: no macOS at Early Access start.
This roundup stitches together loud reactions to Path of Exile 2’s reveal with a tongue-in-cheek look at Rod Ferguson’s “Diablo-like” label. The tone swings between meme, mockery, and genuine awe at the scope of GGG’s systems.
Beyond the jokes, the throughline is consistent: POE2’s endgame focus and mechanical depth are the draw, while Diablo 4 is framed as casual-friendly but thin at the top. The only concrete downside raised is Early Access skipping macOS.
What’s in the video
- POE2 reveal hailed as one of the strongest ARPG announcements seen.
- macOS not supported at the start of Early Access; Windows/console implied focus.
- Rod Ferguson floats “Diablo-like” as a genre term, triggering debate and memes.
- Creators contrast POE2’s dual trees, weapon skills, and endgame with D4’s simplicity.
- Recurring critique: Diablo 4 lacks meaningful long-tail rewards and activities.
- Multiple Diablo-focused creators openly planning to spend seasons in POE2.
- Satirical “Diablo-like” examples lampoon bad launches, shallow trees, and weak rewards.
- Overall sentiment: Blizzard feels threatened; GGG sets the ARPG pace.
- Call to action: expect more POE2 coverage; audience urged to try the game.
- Humorous musical sting underscores the “secretly love POE” punchline.
