This is the game i've been waiting for.

I honestly can still remember the day that I first played the original Baldur's Gate. I made my character with the help of my uncle, who originally got me into DnD, and I never looked back. I played that game for longer than could reasonably be considered healthy.

After spending countless years, dabbling in competitive FPS, i found myself yearning for that old RPG sensation.

I played....numerous other similar games, [who shall remain unnamed], and was always left disappointed. They couldn't seem to capture that epic feel that i was looking for. They always fell short in one, or many areas.

Until a few days ago, when i caught a random video of POE2 on display, and i knew i had to try it.

The game captures everything that i want in an RPG and more. I'm barely 20 hours deep, and I'm already planning for future play throughs, and am generally just engrossed in the experience.

The voice acting, the animations (which are finally on the same level as the amazing isometric backgrounds), the story, the characters, the combat - i have yet to be disappointed.

I'm not saying it's a perfect game - but i am saying it's a fantastic one.

Do yourself a favour - check this out, but take your time, appreciate the entire experience - turn off the twitch streams, turn off your phone, and just kick your feet up and enjoy it.
