You play it to feel frustrated, obviously... I agree with everything you just said. I think by the time it relases I would have had enough already, I only just started act 2 and only finihsed act 1 because a level 60 friend came to kill the bosses. It's weird, you want to like it but it feels like it just kicks you in the balls everytime you try until you need to walk away. I guess they didn't want a 'fun' game as this is anything but. 'Repetitive boringness'.	Posted by Virtualburn#4415 on Dec 14, 2024, 6:59:44 AM Quote this Post

The game itself is horribly optimized on PS5, with fps drops, screen tearing, general bugs and small text that gives you a headache trying to read it. But other then the PS5 stuff it just isn't fun. It feels like a full time job, I'm slow and areas take forever to clear out, gear drops are awful, the bosses are also awful, I thought I was going to be playing an arpg, not a top down souls like with arpg elements. You might very well enjoy the game, but YOU are in the minority. This is it exactly. IT looks like a job and you don t want to play a game like that. You want to enjoy a bit and it s not the case. The loot change has me to stop it immediatly cause it was my pleasure , my reward for killing uniques. Now i have no loot no currency and hard difficulty (i like the difficulty if rewards follow). I hope they will change this vision and create a ruthless mod with this kind of game cause my friend for example like it (he has tons of free time and is masochistic). No risk no fun hardcore forever	Posted by kurosaki75#3179 on Dec 14, 2024, 7:00:16 AM Quote this Post

+1 not trying to be salty but this is hands down the worst rpg game on the market as of now. Even d4 at least had some entertainment value to it. This game is boring from the start, basically looks like they gave into streamers who sit around 24/7 getting paid to play games, and even streamers are saying its no good.

I think the title "POE 2" is misleading and traps people into thinking this is the successor of POE 1. I would like to see it renamed to "Kingdom of dodgerolling" or "slowwalk simmulator".	Posted by krizzexile#4451 on Dec 14, 2024, 7:17:20 AM Quote this Post

'Repetitive boringness'. Repetitive is when everythign you face just explodes without effort. POE1 is very repetitive because you do not even CARE what youare fighting. You do nto even LOOK at the monster before endgame special bossed because the game is SO repetitive that you can just spam DPS at them POE2 by DEFINITION is less repetitive since for each monster you need to act slightly or sometimes drastically different.
