Path of Exile's overwhelming complexity isn't the real reason new players pass on it, director believes: 'I think that PoE 1's being such an old game is in itself the accessibility problem'
Grinding Gear Games co-director Jonathan Rogers believes the age of Path of Exile, rather than its complexity, is the primary barrier for new players. He suggests Path of Exile 2 offers a more accessible entry point due to its more intuitive systems and the removal of accumulated 'cruft' from the original game. Future updates for Path of Exile 2 aim to improve mechanics tutorials and overall player onboarding.
