Is there single-player version of PoE?

[Valkor]

The design of the game is great and I'd love to buy and play a single version without those MMO crap like other good diablo-clones, maybe there's some mods to make it?

You do not need to interact with other players. You can turn of chat and play in a SSF league so you won't even be able to party up. That way you only see others in towns, which you only really visit on login after you've completed the campaign (and maybe to buy gems and turn in divine vessels, but those are few and far between).

If you also enable /dnd you won't even be able to receive chat messages.

That's basically a single player experience. But not offline. There is no offline version of the game.

You're not allowed to modify the files, so ... hopefully not ;)

There is no offline version if that's what you are asking for. PoE is predominantly a single player game, and has enforced single player leagues, nothing about it is "MMO," but it's always online. Unless the devs goof up and a version of the server code is released there will likely never be "mods" that let you play offline.

PoE is a ARPG not a MMO

Solo self found feature is closest thing when it comes to singleplayer in poe. Trading and party disabled

Maybe Lost Ark is an ARPG for you too? And Black Desert?

The MM in MMO stands for "massively multiplayer" and implies hundreds of characters playing together in the same instance. PoE is 1-6 players, it's about as far from MMO as it gets.

Black Desert is a MMO, Dota 2 is not a MMO, TF2 is not a MMO, PoE is less multiplayer than Dota or TF. Easy enough to understand?

^ Well said, Astasia.

So do you deny PoE is multiplayer RPG? The only difference is player count

That's correct, the difference between a MMO and an online multiplayer game is player count. PoE is an online game with a multiplayer mode, but you can play it 100% singleplayer and the vast majority of players do so. I'm still not sure what your actual question is, but if you want to play the game without other people bothering you, you can, you never have to see a single other player in any combat instance, you will just occasionally see them in town hubs where you don't have to interact with them.

Thata the difference between an mmorpg and a rpg with online multiplayer. The number of players that can play together in one instances.

Try grim dawn, its not poe but it is an arpg that can be played offline.

Agreed, I tried Grim Dawn and Torchlight 2, they're great diablo-clones, but PoE is the best. Sadly they like only multiplayer content, offline play != single-player

It is the same. I think the only difference is that you can't ever party up if you find a friend.
