POE2 is a real diverse product, with geniune difficulty to test an actual human being. I've logged off today at the start of Act 3 with Monk and I loved the progression, through many mechanical struggles, dieing and adapting to challenge.
If you want to instantly experience "spacing out", then you're going to have to work for it/follow a guide/play an easier class.
Criticism along the lines of "what were they thinking" is an absolutely atrocious attitude. Do some of you seriously think that real devs and minds should of thought to cancel any form of innovation and made another speed running looter one skill blasting ARPG?
All other platforms like Youtube and Reddit are showing massive positivity towards the release and your opinions are in the minority. Are a lot of you really going to label this game as "anti fun" just because the campaign and early progression/item state is forcing to dodge roll and adapt precisely to bosses and general monsters?
I'm out of these forums for a long while, was hoping for inisght, for true bro and nerd like dicussions on builds/nerfs whatever but instead just wow...too many adults with the challenge levels of mobile/webpage gaming.
Seriously, imagine being an adult with the patience level of 2 days worth of gameplay, threads titled "I'm too soft"...I'm done, this is pathetic.
The vast majority won't play it and that's what GGG need. and I don't blame them.
I've been gaming since pong, I've played every genre as they came out and done everything. its 2024 and most just want to kills stuff after a hard day... this game is to focused and will lose a lot of interest once the hype goes.

Thing is if people posted in the poe2 sub-forum at the top of the page most flaming would be gone.
But posting in general discussion of PoE1 will attract besides the PoE1 "addicts" the people that didn't get a key and are just waiting to stir stuff up just because.
Save yourself some hassle. Post in the correct sub-forum.

You are pathetic...
If you have a PoE2, it's because of PoE1 players who supported GGG for more than 10 years, not because a clown buying a key at 30$ now...
And i agree with them...
I don't think PoE2 is the game that PoE1 players wanted...
Too long to explain, i'll just play PoE2 casually and wait for PoE1 new season...
Sad but for me, GGG lost his PoE soul to harvest new players...

That's most new gamers now. It's pathetic and why gaming is dumbed down.
Thank goodness for this game.

I'm a gold kiwi supporter you little child. This game is here because of people like me.
PoE 2 is brilliant and here for a reason. Show some respect and get lost.

And? You're a gold supporter so you're reprentative of PoE1 players expectations?
I just replied to a guy complaining about PoE1 players opinions...
Brilliant?

what do you expect from no lifers who think they are pro because they can copy paste premade builds? Brutal reality check lol
If you actually played the game you would know "builds" aren't really a thing in poe2 as they are in poe 1. Want to play fire spells? You use every fire spell in the game save for 1 in your rotation. You have to, thats how the game is designed. You can't get away with just using 1 skill.
You get a fire staff with + level to gems and whatever else you can manage, thats it thats all you can do until 100 hours into the game were you have more options after grinding untold amounts for gear that people would throw away in poe 1.
Tree is utterly boring with the removal of tons of things from PoE1 and choices are absolutely brain dead. Ascendency power is ripped straight from ruthless league as well.

They knew many from the PoE1 crowd wouldn't like PoE2, which is why they are keeping PoE1 running and will make leagues for it.
At the same time, they figured there would be a market for a game like PoE2, and looking at player numbers, they were correct.
Personally, I love PoE2, and also PoE1 - they are a completely different game, but they are both phenomenal in their way.

Nice hyperbole. Care to cite your source? I suspect the retention numbers, whenever those come out, will tell the actual reality not clickbait "stats" made up on these forums.

It's the vocal minority. Most people are busy playing the game, trying things out.
