Tom Chick's crazyman ranting about difficulty levels and game designers not doing their jobs

But not PoE? Sorry if I missed it, but isn’t combat basically the same as PoE as well as those other games?

I generally don’t like the real time combat of these games, but with Tyranny I came to accept it, which made PoE easier for me to get into.

So I guess my question is, how does combat compare to PoE?
