I’m really enjoying it so far. I’m solidly in the middle of Act 2 and about to start The Winter March part 1.

I’m playing it on my Steam Deck and I’m really liking how I’ve got the controls set up. I grabbed a community template and made some additions of my own. I added a virtual menu for the left trackpad and changed the right joystick to handle scrolling long text and menus.

The story is good and I’m hanging in there on Easy. I figured I’d end up going down to the Story difficulty.

      I actually loved Tyranny more, but act 3 is seriously rushed. Also new game+ is meh at best.

        Tyranny was such a fun game (rushed act 3 aside). I really wish we’d get more games that explore being the bad guys without:

        • Immediately trying to overthrow them
        • Making it into a joke/comedy

      I loved Tyranny, but the combat was much worse compared to PoE. For newcomers I would recommend the lowest difficulty setting so they can enjoy the excellent writing and story.

      Dammit PoE is way too overloaded of an acronym. I thought you were referring to Path of Exile and got confused.
