Honest question, is this pay to win?
I see a 30 dollar price tag, fine. I am okay with that. I am even okay with some cosmetics. I am looking at the dlc that doubles the price with equipment that looks like it might give me power, I am even kind of okay with that. BUT

I wont be okay if the game is full of pay to win microtransactions as well. Can someone give me honest feedback on this as its helping me decide if I want to buy the dlc day 1, or not.

Although super annoying, I am willing to accept this.

Why not just google it?
This game is as honest as you will ever get. Poe exist since 2013 and there was never anything p2w in the game.

P.S
You do not pay for the game. You paid 30$ for early access release. Not for game it self.
You could just not pay for EA and wait for full free release.

The 400 points or whatever we get from buying early access, will it be enough to get a reasonable amount of storage?

Use your currency on the additional STASH tabs. This game is not and never will be P2W.

no. just stash tab for easy storage n selling item.

400 points is enough.
just get currency tab first for now since you are new.

there will be available sale on next week. u can check sales date. poedb

the currency tab on sale is 50 points.
save 350 points until they add maps and several other tabs.

mainly stashes
currency 50 point
maps - i forgot.
fragments - 50points
a quad tab for trading. -125points.

all cosmetic gear bookings give no in game advantage.

also, there isn't dlc for poe 1 and poe 2.

it listed as dlc as in downloadable content/mainly cosmetic and points.

not DLC, expansion in-game new content. if that helps.

Yes. However, I would recommend waiting for stash tabs to go on sale if you can manage until then.
