I played Path of Exile a few years back. It was fun. Obviously a Diablo clone, but fun. Your skills were based on gems you picked up rather than the skill tree, and you could combine pretty much any skill with another skill to get some amazing combos. At no point did it ever feel pay to win.

My problem with it back then was you could really screw yourself if you didn't plan out your character tree progression. In a game like Diablo 2 where the tree is pretty simple, that may fly. But when the tree is literally like hundreds of nodes, I don't see how that's practical. The last boss was one-shotting me with basic attacks. I had to hide while somebody else killed him for me. My hope is they instituted some sort of respec or skill point buy-back. It's supposedly coming to XBox soon, so I plan to give it a shot again. Free makes games more fun.

Location: The battlefield. As always.
Warframe: I call it warfarm for a reason. It is, however, an excellent crazy ninja stuff simulator, and the ftp store is a progression shortcut. Super grindy, though.

Smite: Standard mobadoba, over the shoulder perspective. Workin' in the salt mines.

Sorry, my question wasn't "can anyone explain them to me", my question was "does anybody play them enough that they would be interested in grouping up".

I occasionally play PoE, generally when a new league starts that the other people I play with get excited about.

I'm MR16 in Warframe.

I've got 83 gods mastered in Smite, 17 diamond.
