Path
of Exile is a strange game that seems to defy all conventions of existing. Yes,
it’s a free to play game, in the truest sense, akin to Valve’s Dota 2. The only
difference here is that ‘Valve’ is a company automatically synonymous with
several beloved titles, great love for quality and lots and lots of money. On
the other hands ‘Grinding Gear Games’ is a company that is a bit of a blank
slate and one that’ll make you think of the numerous RPGs in which you, well…
grinded for gear. Which is a bit of a nice move since Path of Exile is modelled
after Diablo and Diablo 2, both games in which grinding for great gear and
hunting for epic loot formed an important part of the experience.
