Path of Exile 2 is new on the scene, and it's giving me major Diablo 2 vibes. It's the first ARPG I've played other than Blizzard's masterpiece that captures the same feel, and I can't get enough.

Path of Exile 2 is an action-RPG about customizing your hero, killing tons of enemies, and winning cool gear as a result. But a few days after the game’s massive Early Access launch, players are feeling a bit underwhelmed by the pace and size of loot drops. Path of Exile 2's developers say they agree.

Path of Exile 2 improves on this system tenfold, removing the requirement of gear socketing and allowing skills to be equipped through a skill gem menu. Each skill then has six associated sockets for support gems by default, meaning players do not have to hunt for the correct slots and links on their gear.
