Finally uninstalled PoE2... the wave of relief is crazy!

It rather seems like you are some relative of a certain guy in charge of a certain company, which cannot get over the fact how good POE 2 actually is.

" What niche does it fill? Seems very similar to vanilla d3. I guess that counts in a very technical way. |
|
" I agree with this for the first 3 Acts then Cruel feels good. Acts 1-3 are overtuned for some of the classes at this early stage of the game. I trust GGG will fix this by balancing classes and bosses. |

"Are you daft? I literally said that PoE2 won't be mainstream either. Mainstream gamers play (or at least used to play) the new Ubisoft game. They play Bethesda in-house games. They play CoD. They play FIFA. They play D4. They see "Ooh, Blizzard, I know Blizzard, they will always be Blizzard to me, I buy Blizzard" grab it, play it 2h each week and are content. You'll find people that have played the Diablo franchise for years and never even heard of PoE. Because they are not deep into this shit. They don't play the convoluted mess of mechanics that requires five third party tools and three third party websites to even begin to understand. PoE1 is an enthusiast game. The difference between a guy buying a pre-assembled model car and putting it into his vitrine and a guy that builds one from scratch over the course of weeks, having his fingers covered in band-aids from scalpel slips. |

Same, a few days ago I had the realization that this game hates you and the fun part is very short lived.
PoE 1 is the best. PoE 2 is something.

" Once you hit end game in poe2 the roll becomes useless and you can see anything. Mass waves is enemies, skills popping off everywhere and floor effect that can damage and insta kill you when you can't see them. None of these things actually work in conjunction with each other. And the xp when dying to invisible things with no tells or visibility just makes it unbearable. Atleast elden ring is mostly based on skill and learning. Poe2 seems to be completely funnelled into getting rich somehow with bad drop rates so you can buy rediculously expensive items on the trade website. Way to win poe2= get rich and pay to win gear, very little skill or difficuly. Only terrible mechanics with little enjoyment or reward. |

Can't imagine relying on this level of acknowledgment from people you don't know. Good luck in whatever other games you eventually complain about.

There is two points where i agree .
the game optimization is horrible (HORRIBLE) , i have decant pc , i play all the modern games , no problem , the moment i start this , my pc shifts into gear 5. i am strongly considering dropping the game for the sole reason not to damage my pc. second one is lore , yeah its kinda weak , but its better then poe 1 at least. |

This thread didn’t age very well.
If you feel stress and anxiety from playing a game, you should stop playing (unless you like that). Take care of your own mental health. That doesn’t mean the game is terrible for everyone else, as seen by the crazy number of people still playing every day. It’s really sad that some people who loved poe1 are not enjoying poe2, but take a step back and try it again once they do some tuning. I’m not saying that feedback and changes aren’t needed, but it’s clear that some people are too emotionally invested. You don’t need to ruin your life trying a game in EA, just chill and see how it evolves. People are taking this game way too seriously. I’ve been there before, I had 15,000 hours in WoW before I quit and it helped a lot. Sometimes you just need to move on and try something else. Hope you all have/had a good holiday and find something else to enjoy in the meantime! Last edited by Minuen#7817 on Dec 28, 2024, 12:30:44 PM
