PoE review

So after a few hours of searching around I think i've read up on everything that's been revealed so far so I feel confident to give an opinion on the content. I will include a TLDR right here for those who don't want to read what could be a long read. [b]TLDR:[/b] I will be buying house of wolves because PoE looks amazing. I have to say I'm impressed. I was honestly just expecting one room with waves of adds no side objectives or anything. But I really enjoy how we will fight all factions and they each have their own themed areas. I'm personally in love with the fallen arena. I also enjoy how things ramp up in difficulty slowly instead of it jumping sharply. I also like from first glance that there really doesn't seem to be any cheeses. I know it makes me a hypocrite since I've cheesed before. Something i'm still kind of concerned about though is exactly how the loot system for PoE works. I'm hoping that each difficulty can give you potentially the same rewards. Just that higher difficulties give you much better chances at the good stuff. So far there doesn't seem to be an exact word on how it works. Another concern I have is the new "side arm" weapon class. I don't understand why we have one. We have hand cannons that cover the distance you'd use a side arm in. and shotguns are what you'd switch to if someone is next to you and you are caught mid reload. I'm worried that this side arm class will just end up impacting hand cannons in a negative way. Probably the thing that I like the most though is how the PoE will change up on a weekly basis. I know that we will get different fallen faction based class armor, shaders, and ships. But I wonder if we might also get different house themed gear. Really the only problem I had with the stream is it left me with more questions then answers on some things.
