is this game worth getting for my first ARPG?

Depends on if you like games with hundreds if not thousands of bugs or not.

Sure, but you should keep in mind that its a half-game right now and really Early Access. Its not a version that you should play if you want a finished ARPG experience.

POE and POE2 are a bit harder than your standard ARPG. But POE1 is great, TONS of content and polished. POE2 is new and not released so they are updating. Another you might try is Grim Dawn or even Titan Quest by the same developers. Or even Torchlight 1 or 2.

I mean that is a tough one. Depends what type of player you are. If you like to work with lots of different system, theorycrafting your builds and that kinda stuff as well as blowing up monsters. Then yeah, its not a bad pick. But it will also be free in like 6 - 12 months ... ish

If you are more of a casual player who gets annoyed when trying to overcome certain difficulties. There are easier ARPGs. Last Epoch comes to mind. Also a really nice game and i think cycle 2 is not too far off.

The benefit of getting into PoE 2, you might also give poe 1 a go :3

Grim Dawn for start

[Good Joe]

The satisfaction this game offers ( poe1 or poe2 ) is great. I'm not a fan or this genre, but it is really way much better than diablo 4. Keep in mind that this game is EA, but the company seems to really care about the finish product and are transparent during the development. You should ignore Jungle Ranger who said a thousand bugs, because the game works great, the servers are stable, and the updates are coming frequently

No.
For your first,Diablo is the most simple but if you want to play POE, play poe 1. It is much more forgiving than poe2. 2 will likely get you frustrated

Probably should lose your virginity first, hold a women's hand, first, cop a third base move. Then worry about games.

You’re definitely going to die a lot especially if it’s your first aRPG. It’s quit a bit more brutal than most others.

[FeralFerret]

No. Get something good like Grim Dawn instead.

[BigD]

Yes and no. Well some of us paid for some EXTRA'S and so far.. I still don't have what I PAID for. I really am trying to be nice here. Every email.. I sent just asking about it.. NEVER ONCE got back to me. Never had a problem with them in the past.. never had to ever talk to them so I have no clue what's up. :( to know you paid real money for and nothing.. nothing what the heck
