This is pretty much a blatant Diablo clone, but what is nice is that for one is is FREE TO PLAY(Completely, the items you can buy are only cosmetic), and it takes a lot of thing Diablo did wrong and makes it better.
While PoE still has the very rigid story line with hidden treasures around a tunnel corridor every so often, It allows the player enormous freedom when it comes to play style.

And other than the passives, abilities are determined by combinations of "GEMS" and "SUPPORT GEMS" which are usable based off of your:
INT [T]http://www.pathofexile.com/image/hardcoded-items/IntSkillGem.png[/T]
STR [T]http://www.pathofexile.com/image/hardcoded-items/StrSkillGem.png[/T]
AGI [T]http://www.pathofexile.com/image/hardcoded-items/DexSkillGem.png[/T] stat levels.
Each one of the main gems give you an ability when inserted into your weapon or armor, and if there is a slot for it, can be modified by a support gem.
EX: Flame Totem(Gem) + Fork(Support Gem) = A Flame totem that shoots fireballs that fork after the first hit! :D

As well as the awesome game mechanics, there are tournaments that go from an hour to 3-4 weeks where you'll have different objectives(Usually to get the most experience)where the players will be rewarded with special items and things. I don't know as much about these since I am new to them myself, but I know I look forward to discovering more about them. :D
