D2R is peak Diablo but there are lots of alternative ARPGs that are far better than the Chinese gutter oil that is Path of Exile.

~~You can't play mods on D2R~~ which to me makes it worse than the original D2. I've enjoyed and played Diablo 2 for 20 years now. A big part of why is due to mods like Median XL (and the fact that it's the best game ever made).

As for PoE, I strongly disagree. If you're only looking at ARPGs that follow the seasonal style and constantly add new content. There aren't many better than PoE.

I did not know that, thank you. I might look a bit more into D2R in that case but it's hard to justify giving money to Blizzard.

If it makes you feel any better, you'd be giving money to Microsoft now, baby! lol

Better than giving money and data to China.
