I was SO WRONG about Path of Exile 2

His view reversed: initially finding Path of Exile 2 dull, he now plays after work and has two level-40-plus characters. He values constant progression, spending hours tuning gear, gems, skills, and trees before finally defeating a difficult golem boss. His grenade-focused Mercenary build excels at pinning and clearing groups; he wants faster reloads, while huge maps and poor direction-finding frustrate him.

Initial skepticism has become sustained engagement, driven by optimization, challenge, and constant goals.
