Do you mean how they look....or how you level up etc?

It's an expansion of PoE and honestly looks great. GGG are freaking awesome, and I have had more fun with that game (for free...although I did donate early on and have bought stash tabs etc a few times), then I have had with pretty much any game in the last decade.

I have complete faith that PoE 2 is going to seriously rock. If you had to purchase it....I would actually pre-order it and I won't preoder almost anything anymore.

It looks less like a completely new game and more like an expansion to the existing one with a different campaign. Presuming you mean cosmetic customization, I doubt they'll move away from their current, very-successful model of having pre-defined models for each class and making cosmetic customization a matter of gear and microtransactions. If you're referring to customizing their gameplay, however, I also doubt they'll move away from the extreme customization they currently offer.

They confirmed that they were changing how sockets / links work.

I read a bit about it and many things are staying the same. There will be a skill tree and there will be prestige classes (Think they said 19 new ones?). You have to start fresh in the 2.0 version as well, they did not state if you could use the new classes in the old campaign (and then carry them over).

Getting rid of sockets/links is actually an over all good thing at this point because they have become almost obsolete at this point, even in a new ladder you can get a 6 socket right away and if you play a bit you can also craft stuff pretty easy (including specific socket colors etc).

As they add more and more stuff to the current game, power creep has been getting kind of rediculous, so hopefully 2.0 will help with that somewhat. I can start from scratch and be doing maps in a day or so at this point after a new league starts and I'll have at least 1 6 socket by the third day (with the colors I want) pretty much every time.

Part of it is just getting better at the game, but some of the additions have helped you get currency way faster etc as well.....which speeds everything up (also makes it easier to get 6 socket items which reduces the price for them etc).

I mean a year ago I was happy getting a 5 socket item with colors I like within a week. Now I don't usually even bother with a 5 socket item anymore, I skip right to 6, and then eventually to a 6 socket with stats I really like etc.

So you mentioned, but nothing about that statement suggests you won't be able to customize abilities anymore. Care to elaborate?

Look, I just dont want to be an old man Templar, k?

Maybe I want to be a Filipino Templar with pink hair or a Black White Mage with a white beard or Eskimo Rogue or White guy Shaman with facial tattoos.
