Have you played Path of Exile? That's the only one I could think of. I think their monetization is very fair.

No, I tried but was overwhelmed in the first hour. You're not the first person to tell me that.

Lol yeah Poe is the first game that I’ve ever played where someone was just like “you’re gonna want to copy someone else’s build for your first play throughs”

I remember on my first run that it wasn’t super clear how much resistances mattered. After beating a certain boss you’re like negative 30% in all resistances so you get one shot a lot without really knowing why.

Definitely one of those games I hate trying to get a friend into because you feel like you’re suffocating them with info.
