GGG - Stand true to what you said about player feedback

I like it.
Wish I could play more.
Ladies, Gentlemen

I've read about half of this sprawling thread. I personally feel the game is great, but EA. Many skills need adjustment, Passive Tree needs adjustment, and so on. Because, again, it's EA and I know, because it's GGG, it will only get better from here.

So, please, make your point, set forth your arguments, post your bugs. Be helpful and respectful of each other. Game commentary and analysis is excellent and doubtless welcome. Personal attacks are puerile and distract from what this should be about - improving an already great game.

It may not be everyone's cup of tea, but I'm already in love and I trust GG to make careful adjustments without abandoning this refreshing vision.

Peace,
Inethil
I agree wholeheartedly with OP.

I usually do not engage in forums, but I feel like It's important to let the devs know there are players who appreciate the experience offered by this game.

I would hate that this game turns into a POE1 clone, and I would certainly not play for long if it was the case.

Sure.
The only problem is, if this ruthless ish mode is the only feature of the game, it will be pigeonholed into a couple of builds.
Like it already is starting to become.

If this is the standard going forward, the vast majority of the player base will be gone.
If they want that, fine, keep it as it is.

It's not for me, I'm going to quit, go back to POE1 and be upset I spend a hundred dollars backing this, but try to mitigate it by enjoying other content from GGG.

What I do NOT like, is all the elite chads telling me that

A: My voice is invalid
B: I'm wrong in what I find fun in a game
C: There is no middle ground
D: This can't be solved by ruthless mode in POE2

Is this game utterly disappointing and BORING for me?
YES!

Am I glad others enjoy it?
Also YES!

But I'm not going to just roll over and say "hey GGG have my money so others can have their ultimate fun game, I have no say, I was wrong".

Yes it was voluntary to pay to play early access. Yes GGG get's to decide.

But you do not get to speak for me.
hope GGG don't put boss with mechanics... i hate that, is soooo boring to do mechanics.... learn mechanics?
some guys think i have time to learn things about a boss instead of having a fun fight

What I do NOT like is:
A: All the whinging to change this game into PoE1 is exactly what caused A to be true for me and many others in Path of Exile 1. Our voices were invalidated, we were baited and switched from the game we supported GGG as a small company for.
B: See my point about A.
C: See my point about A.
D: See my point about A, except it's even worse because GGG said they won't put a ruthless in PoE2 because they will try to do better with the balancing.

Look at my supporter packs. I play the crap out of this game just like I've been playing the crap out of D2 my entire life. You guys whining want it to be fun for 1 or 2 weeks of a league, I want it to be fun for 10+ years of my life. Our perspectives are not the same.

If D2 came out today with all this forum and social media spam, god condor games/blizz north would never have been able to fucking make it.

This is exactly what makes PoE2 fun for me, and it's what made PoE1 Ruthless so fun for me. Getting 4 voidstones on Ruthless feels super special.

Unfortunately it seems to be what an overwhelming amount of people want. The content creator and social media cycle is just making this a disaster.

I barely recognize the forums anymore.
