OPINION: Path of Exile Is Bloody Brilliant - MMORPG.com
I decided to hop into Path of Exile for the first time. Man, it's amazing.

For example, Inquisitor Martyr ARPG is much more enjoyable - despite defective progression and loot. And looks better.
Thank you for your time!
You get 20 free respec points. If you need more, take notes and start a new character. It's part of the game, especially considering how easy it is to get through most of the story content.
Yes, you lose some experience at higher levels, later in the story. If you lose nothing at death, people would just die-respawn-die-respawn. Would you rather lose some hard earned gear? Seriously, I thought I was a care-bear because I don't support dropping loot on death.
If you don't like the skills - colors combo, this is obviously not your game. So I can kinda understand you not liking it. But does that mean everyone else must think, feel like you? A lot of people do find the mechanics and the game brilliant. Just move on and enjoy Martyr.
I can see why others may find it so.
What does it explain?

Awesome thanks! I have a siege ballista slotted right now as well. Will get to moving towards the totem passives!
I love PoE, but I agree the insane clear speeds and one shot mechanics have gotten out of hand over the years. I am hoping 4.0 slows the pace down a bit.

If Grim Dawn was full online like Path of Exile with active trading, and leagues/seasons then Grim Dawn would be great, I enjoy Grim Dawn but the fact that you can just download a program and get every item in game that you want isn't enjoyable for me, at least knowing you can do that.
I WILL find a mirror eventually. Mark these words (as others have marked them these last few years).
3.9 will slow that down, the end game bosses have signficantly harder mechanics and more HP than any other boss to date, even more so the Awakener (Final Boss of 3.9).
The speed in which you can play the game really appeals to me personally, mapping would become tedious if you run around at snails pace.
3.9 doesn't seem to introduce much more power creep at least from what we've seen, so should be an interesting league.
Personally I will be playing SSFHC and competing for the prizes + microtransactions

I tried playing the PC version with a different controller not that long ago, and probably this year. I couldn't find any way to make it not require a very heavy dose of using a thumbstick to move a mouse pointer and click on things.
I've always found Xbox-style controllers to be unusable. If it can only be played on that one, egregiously awkward controller, then that's a big problem for me. If there's some more general, controller options menu that I completely missed, I'd be very interested in knowing about it. In most games, I give up on trying built-in controller support, as it never works right, anyway, and rely instead on mapping keyboard keys (or occasionally mouse buttons) to controller buttons. The reason I want WASD movement is not because I want to actually use WASD, but because I want to map it to a controller D-pad.
