We're not your personal army.
If the game releases in a bad state let the reviews reflect that. For the time being might I remind you that we are in Early Access of a game still in development.

these takes are pure bootlickers.

Id be willing to bet 99% of the people commenting are commenting because their build is shit/hasnt been nerfed.

Show us your lightning monk bud.

GGG was not transparent enough about what early access means. Therefore from one point of view that can be seen as manipulative. Check their webpage or page on steam, the meaning is not present good enough. Its GGGs work to inform more accurately and not vague as for example this time.

And to rest of your personal questions.. Its not about me. I have only shown one point of view and empathy for players, who could see themselves treated unfair and badly informed.

Not transparent enough? What should they do, visit you personally and give you a powerpoint presentation in your living room about the definition of "early access"?
If countless videos, articles, posts and descriptions on various sites (including GGGs) which are available to you can't provide enough information about the product you're buying, then it simply sounds like you have made an uninformed decision and that is entirely on you. Don't act like a victim, you are not one.

If you guys are losing your sanity because a build you played for less than a week is gutted due to a patch, EARLY ACCESS MAY NOT BE FOR YOU.

I mention this only for your mental health. WALK AWAY, don't pay to play a game and get this much aggravation and stress.

GGG will make sweeping changes in coming weeks and months - and sooner (rather than later) your chars WILL get affected.

If you can't deal with things changing in a beta, then wait until the game is finished to buy it. Hope this helps.

Id love to see the builds of everyone here defending this current state of affairs. you have to remember 90% of the playerbase still hasnt beaten act 1.

Quite a cricket symphony when i ask something.

Why are maps bugged? 3 maps to run 1 with a client/server bug.

Why is leech bugged? Getting 0% leech on acolyte & blood mage

Why is lightning monk allowed to walk around and 1 shot maps , but you nerf an entire playstyle that isnt even that strong in CoX and CoC.

Also, your design philosophy is ass, its not called cast on big hit crits, its called cast on crit.

Fundamentally changing how this games been played for over a decade in an attempt to keep things stale and slow is a wild progression.

For the first, its not about me. So why r u still yousing "you" word?

For second, if you think that people have time to watch videos about what is mentioned to be early access, than its not possible for most of ppl.

No, GGG is not transparent enough. Go to their web sit and qutoe here what GGG means about what early access is. And you will find out, that you are victim of your own imagination.

So now do your job and put here video, articles, quotes etc. to support your clames. Otherwise your opinions are just opinions and not truths.

What I dont accept is "balancing" on a game that is like 25% complete. This isnt POE1 where they have literally hundreads of skills they can ruin and have enough to have that game be playable. I dont accept random nuclear level nerfing within 1 week of the game launching. I dont accept them pissing off the entire community and scaring off first time POE players because they have the common sense of a brick.

Balance has to happen early. Adding systems on top will only compound how much has to be changed. Most likely resulting in people wanting to review bomb the one company listening anyhow. Some people are just born to complain when something isn't easy or just provided. This game has a year in early access to get everything added and balanced out. Buckle up. Blizzard went with the mentality of catering to the outside players coming in, and turned their arpg into a mmo wow wannabe.

It's EA chill out. More changes will happen.

Unfortunately I needed to leave a negative review. Because this nerf and the fact there's been no response on how they will be doing this going forward I cant recommend this game in early access. I will update my review based on how GGG handles this situation.
