Something is "wrong" with this game...

Im 43 years old and long time D2, Poe, D3, D4, etc player.

Its not that it is difficult, its no well "thought"

If i loose my motivation only 3 days since start, not even to accopmpish my Ascendancy, at about lvl 25, well while leveling, then...

Something "big" is wrong with the game generally:/

It's not even 48 hours, but yes, I feel you. My motivation is almost depleted.

Doubling the damage we do or halving the hp of monsters would solve a lot of issues for me.

Also the dodge roll is stupid and they should bring back travel skills

You mean the plethora of skills in PoE which could be used in different ways and suited different builds accordingly, and not just a one size fits all tumble? Get off the lethe drops, man. That's crazy talk! =^[.]~=

Yeah I thought I would be playing all weekend
I have 10 hours clocked on steam
And lots of that is AFK

You not liking something doesn't mean there is something "big" wrong with it.

Same here, let's hope it will look a bit different from now in 6 months.

Lets just face facts. D2 & PoE1 appeal to some people while Elden Ring, Soul-like, and similar games appeal to other people.

Based on what I see of the game and what I can infer on intent the game simply isn't for me. The devs WANT to create a game with Dodge-or-Die [DoD] mechanics in tons of places with honor mechanics sprinkled in to core progression.

For me personally that's the exact formula to get me to stop playing as I don't want [IMHO] artificial difficulty of DoD mechanics -- I want my difficulty to come through basic combat -- mix of melee, ranged, spell casters, and special abilities of monsters mixed together to add challenge to the game.

This is their vision and it's great. Nothing to change just develop this great game more

As is.

I'm 52 long time fan of D1, D2, D3, D4, GD, Poe1, LE...hell I even played Pong in 1977.

I really like this game.

It is slow, hard and I like this pace. Of course they will make a few adjustments to polish it along the way.
