ARPGs, Open Worlds, and More 💥**
As the gaming world eagerly awaits the release of Path of Exile 2, director Jonathan Rogers sat down with VG247 during Summer Game Fest 2024 to share his thoughts on Diablo 4's launch and continuous updates. With the two games being part of the same ARPG genre, it's natural to wonder what lessons Grinding Gear Games (GGG) has learned from Blizzard's Diablo 4. In a recent interview, Rogers revealed that while GGG didn't directly respond to Diablo 4, the game did confirm some of his pre-existing beliefs. 💡
Rogers stated that he has always been skeptical about open worlds in video games, and Diablo 4 only reinforced this view. He believes that open-world elements don't work well for action RPGs like Diablo 4 and Path of Exile 2. 🏔️ "I've always imagined that wouldn't work," Rogers said. "And I certainly didn't love that element of Diablo 4." 💔
While the team at GGG may not have directly responded to Diablo 4's launch, it's clear that the game has had an impact on their design choices for Path of Exile 2. As the release date approaches, fans are eagerly anticipating what new features and improvements will be included in the next installment of this beloved ARPG series. 🎉
