My feedback for early game

I like the concept of the game but so far there are too many complaints that I have to say the game is perfect. This is an early access to it is only fair that I give my feedback as a beta tester to help improve the game.

The game is too difficult especially in the early game. I feel as though the bosses are unbalanced and over tuned. Maybe give them less health and get rid of those annoying one shot mechanics. I don't know where GGG got the idea that ARPG players love one shot mechanics, that was one of the biggest criticisms of the Lilith boss fight from base game D4, but GGG must have loved Lilith and though it would be a good idea to make every boss in the game a Lilith boss fight.

There's no deterministic ways to gear and skill gems in the early game. There's also no deterministic ways to level up our skill gems.

Also movement speed is too slow, i would suggest buffing base movement speed and adding movement skill gems into the game. Also dodging after the patch still feels terrible. I really hate the part of combat where I am in a narrow hallway and I get stuck in a corner and surrounded by enemies and there is no where to go because once the mobs get to me I am dead.

I think crafting in PoE 2 is the worst in any ARPG with the changes to the gem system. Even D4 has better crafting. Basically there is nothing deterministic about crafting in PoE 2 and I think more currencies can be added to address this.

There are also no ways of earning in game cosmetics from salvaging items or though RNG or as in game rewards like in other games. All the cosmetics I have are called microtransactions because they all are paid for with money and unlike some other games, PoE 2 doesn't give anything to the player for free except the game itself. I think that is stupid. Most who disagree probably don't care about this sort of thing but there are plenty of players out there who do and they are a larger percentage of the community.

Crafting is a slot machine simulator. I liked crafting in Last Epoch. You can add something you like in free slot. In POE2 everything is just random

Yup, movement speed sucks over all, especially with how much "shit" attacks and can move freely , that and end game on console is bad when mobs and mobs form on the screen and you can tell its not optimized, also bosses and some enemies do need tuned a bit, i still get annoyed things semi respawn time or take a break and have to wade through things again... i dont know game is fun for the story and or playing around with each class till first asscention but thats it... also i can not see myself once "leagues" actually start play more than 1 character especially when 12 will be at full release.... dont get my wrong the story will be fun once all 6 acts are out but i dont see myself torturing myself especially when having to ascend each time... and wont go into that because thats a cluster fudge as well... but i got my 30 bucks worth.. i also hate its a dodge simulator lol.... thank baby jebus that there's other games to play.... but kinda sad that console is just getting the 3rd world treatment again, honestly it doesnt look good for GGG ... but its whatever iam just a simple consumer of video games lol
