I'm not a fan but others who left DDO in our guild enjoy Path of Exile.
Can't get into that viewing angle. I need other first-person or over the shoulder chasecam. PoE just looks like a diablow clone, I can tell from a couple screenshots I'll never be able to get into that.

Wouldn't expect anything for a while. Too much money in the pvp/pve twitch/action rpg games.
MMOs are trending towards dumbest/simplest formula for snatching $$$. That's why I abandoned the category altogether.
Maybe in 5-10 years they'll figure out how to marry up something like Nioh/Dark Souls with an open world. When that happens then we'll be getting closer to Shangri-la.
I know and it fucking sickens me. Pay-per-click microtransaction garbage. Worse still no one can seem to adopt a model like DDO; they are all EITHER 100% locked behind subscription OR Pay-per-click microtransaction garbage. It pisses me off.
"action" rpgs and pvp is the fucking worst. Fuck that shit. I literally cannot think of something more poring than MMO PVP, and I once spent 4 hours on an airplane staring at the back of the seat in front of me in total silence. If I had a choice I'd rather do that again than PvP in an MMO. [/quote]

That would be an "action" RPG. They have like 50 of those out right now.
