I’ve tried this game before and it was too complex to figure out. I think I made it to what would be considered the first boss fight.

Yes, it's a very complex game to learn. The skill gems took a while to get used to. https://www.poe-vault.com/guides/beginner-leveling-guide-for-path-of-exile was a good start for me. I recommend just jumping into a character class that looks fun and playing for a bit without worrying about your build. This explains the classes pretty well: https://pathofexile.fandom.com/wiki/Character_class

After getting used to the mechanics, I just followed a build guide and that helped a lot.

I think it’s just not the game for me. I don’t mind games for maxing stuff out or the occasional puzzle, but I don’t want to need to read a character build guide to complete a game.
