Big fan of idles and incrementals, you have inadvertently advertised PoE2 to me haha. Thanks for your thoughts and explanation!

That's totally cool by me, it's a fun game. PoE2 is probably the best ARPG on the market, it's just falling short of what they sold me (and the community at large) on. But for now, it's definitely an idle game during mapping with the right build (and the wrong build will see you roadblocked progression-wise).
