Wraeclast, a dark and hostile continent, where every exile tears power from sweat and spite.

The profile speaks with one voice for now. When the community picks on gut feeling, no criterion, Path of Exile climbs high, ahead of about 90% of games. That is a very strong immediate appeal. But no criterion votes exist yet, so there is no telling whether that success comes from its legendary skill tree depth, its dark atmosphere or its pure in-game thrill. And since this position rests on a still small number of duels, it is an excellent start to confirm rather than a ranking carved in stone.

In the world of online action-RPGs and hack and slash, where you come for the loot hunt and the endless builds, this title stands as a reference for demanding players, and this first collective verdict points the same way.

So, who is it for? For you if you love dark fantasy, deep systems and hours spent fine-tuning your character. Much less if you are after a short, readable and relaxing experience, far from the complexity.
