It's funny to watch people defend a game that doesn't give them a sane reward for the effort they put in, it feels like if you take away almost all the loot they'll keep screaming how awesome it is, it's insane.

It's even funnier watching people get all weird about others defending a game they are really enjoying. POE2 has been great for me.

I have to ask, why are you defending it? Are you afraid that other people not enjoying it in the way that you do will take away your enjoyment of it? Is them not being satisfied with the product against some unspoken rule? Is there a reason so many people here champion getting less of everything like they are some sort of monks in training, trying to adhere to a vow of poverty?

If PoE 2 has been great for you, no notes, brother, get off the forums and go play the game. Antagonizing people trying to give feedback in a feedback thread because it conflicts with your 'enjoyment' of a product seems like a sign of mental illness.

It really isn't.

POE1 starting Acts were buffed to be quite hard because you're still earning currency/gear.

POE2 Act 1 can be rough depending on your build. Some things need tweaking like cheaper vendor prices because the gold income to cost is the worst of all Acts/level brackets.

But then end of A2, A3 and definitely A4+ you are back to your 2 button stompfest like POE1.

It's not harder at all, you'll have tabs filled with so many sup/skill gems, rares, currency, hundreds of thousands of gold and you're not even @ maps. You just have to give it more than a few hours.

1-2 days at most, that's not much to ask to set yourself up.

Then also alts because easy street because you already have uncuts gems ready, all the gold to buy vendor items from the very starts etc.


The only hard part about POE2 is if you go SSF HC, or just HC in general. Harder as in it will take you longer to get that initial gold/item/currency stockpile because you will need to farm more at lower maps/areas that give less yield to be extra safe.

For me this game has been awesome because it takes me back to a time how games used to be before games became overly simplified.

I am not taking anything out of context and from where I am observing you are really not fit to judge who is ignorant or not. The simple fact of the matter is that you folded like wet tissue paper under the lightest scrutiny of your absurd ideas. Go touch grass, or keep playing the game, I don't really care, just stop pretending you are some kind of authority on anything.

p.s. In all seriousness, if you find you have tied so much of your identity to this product that you feel the need to defend it on the internet against random strangers because they do not demonstrate the same level of zeal towards it, you need help. Professional help. That is simply not healthy.

So, a bad faith argument? Yikes.

Have a good night bud.

People freaking out need to remember

1) a game is always easier the next time you play through. First time is always harder because it's new and you aren't use to mechanics or how the game works.

2) It's called early access for a reason. Game has been out four days and they are already doing a patch to address player feedback.

And for goodness sakes, please no difficulty levels. I HATED when Blizzard added that to Diablo. Learn to play and get better. Don't ask for the game to be dumbed down or have a kiddie mode added because you hate challenge.

Great solution. Let the crybabies flood the forum and just NEVER commentate, if u have differing thoughts. Or even are "afraid" they will dumb the game down, simply because of this negative feedback.

OF COURSE people want to give positive feedback too in this scenario. Because they want the "Big big problem" to stay.

What you say is the equivalent of "just play poe 1" - While this statement still holds better. Maybe because, like, the devs stated their vision for the game.
