    I’ve always been concerned about the time sink I see that is needed to succeed in PoE. Is that also needed for the sequel?

    I saw the skill tree for PoE 1 and shit myself

    Plus the whole F2P and “the auction house is the end game” that I hear has me a little leery

    I just want to play a dungeon crawler game and not interact with anything else period. No social, no multiplayer, no dailies nothing. I loathe free to play actually quite a lot because it’s manipulative as hell and tries to get you in is daily ecosystem

    Can I still enjoy PoE 2 even being an absolutely filthy casual?

      Honestly I just play poe2 casually on my deck and I just play how I want. “Succeed” in poe2 wasn’t something I ever set out to do…I have a job and family etc etc

          Yeah you can play poe2 as a filthy casual. Expect to get stuck though at certain boss fights and having to redo your build. I just ask claude lol
