Brand new to the series, looking to learn about the game and play with some metalheads

Title says it all. I'm brand new, I bought support packs to play PoE2 and I really enjoy it. That said, I'm trash. I figured I'd go in blind, try to get used to it while it's EA and try to understand what I can. I've come from Diablo 2 (Original) and Resurrected. The only reason this game ended up on my radar is because when I noticed that Diablo 4 was discounting their DLC by 25% I got curious of the opinions floating around and kept seeing how PoE2 would be the D4 killer. After playing roughly an hour, I can't help but agree.

I'm looking to get advice, game and chat, not to ask for handouts or whatever. I don't really care if people who feel like playing/chatting with me casually are into metal or not but generally I just enjoy discussing video games and black/thrash/death/war metal. I'm taking a shot in the dark to see if anybody new or veteran wants to play or chat. I live a pretty busy life so I may or may my be on a lot but the game has me hooked at the moment.

Anyway, thanks for reading.
