These two games, unlike Last Epoch and PoE, will be in a competition of sorts for the title of next-gen best ARPG. It is not a mystery that ARPG fans nowadays are patiently and eagerly waiting for the next generation of games, namely Path of Exile 2 and Diablo 4. Last Epoch, on the other hand, has both deterministic and semi-deterministic crafting methods that allow players to somewhat choose what kind of affixes they want on their items. However, the community was recently upset about the announcement by GGG that it's going to substantially nerf the only deterministic option for crafting in the game by crippling Harvest-crafting.
In Path of Exile, crafting turns out to be a tad convoluted and not really straightforward, but once gamers get the hang of it it's a very rewarding process. Last Epoch has implemented this with a sort of area vacuum pick-up system that allows players to gather items much quicker than other similar titles manage to.Ĭrafting in both games is possible, and it is a great way for players to make their own items at different stages of the game. As such, having the opportunity of picking up all loot of the same item class or within a specific loot category would be immensely time-saving. Even with a very strict loot filter, Path of Exile can throw tons of loot at its players. There is another pet peeve that is commonly shared among Path of Exile enthusiasts, which is picking up loot. Path of Exile, much like the land of Wraeclast where most of its story unfolds, is rather unforgiving. This makes it so mistakes are easy to mend, and at no point in the game, there is that feeling of having to reroll a character and start from scratch because the player messed something up. Last Epoch is also much friendlier towards casual players or players who are not able or willing to spend many hours into the game, and it shows it by letting gamers reset their skill trees at will, provided they have enough Gold. The Ascendancy classes are there to spice things up and determine what the specialization of the character is going to be from the moment they are chosen, which can feel restricting in some ways. In Path of Exile, there is a general, very complex skill tree that encompasses all 7 starting classes. A more specific launch date is yet to be announced.In fact, they can choose to spend passive points as they like, distributing them across all three Masteries or specializing in one of the three while dabbling into one or both of the remaining two for some utility. Path of Exile 2 is currently due out some time in 2022, with its production having met with COVID-related hurdles. With how Path of Exile 2 is being structured and the fact that it will share its endgame with the first game, it should be interesting to see how next-gen exclusivity for the game will work, if that does indeed end up happening.
It’s worth noting that he said it’s “very likely” that that will happen, so nothing is set in stone yet- but it’s safe to assume for now that the game won’t be releasing for last-gen hardware. Meanwhile, Wilson also confirmed that cross-play is being looked into, but once again, stopped short of confirming anything.

In a press Q&A, Grinding Gear CEO Chris Wilson told Wccftech that Path of Exile 2 might end up skipping the Xbox One and PS4, and could launch only for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
Something else that the developer highlighted was the visual upgrades that are being made to the game over its predecessor- but that might end up coming at a cost. After many long months of little to no updates, Grinding Gear Games provided significant new details on Path of Exile 2 at the recent ExileCon, showcasing new gameplay footage from Act 2 and detailing everything from new enemies to new weapons and much more.
