the 1 map death centrist solution
the solution is simple, the question is whether or not GGG will invest the effort or whether or not it is even possible in their coding.
in WoW's mythic+ when you finish the dungeon all monsters still alive become deactivated. you can't attack them, they don't attack you, etc. all you can do is walk through the dungeon and collect your loot, the chest at the end. the solution for PoE2 maps is obviously the same thing. it should remain as 1 death, but the portals remain and when you die the monsters inside (and events like breach, expedition, etc) become deactivated allowing you to walk through and collect your drops but without allowing you to play the map any further. also i think bosses should have more than 1 portal.

ewww no pls
|
|
So... you want to just remove the purpose of 1 death?
|
|
" It has no purpose except to waste people's time. So it should be deleted and people should be allowed to use their 6 portals. |
|
" There is a purpose and here is a hint....its not GGGs fault that you died. Get good buddy. Every death is your fault. Got killed by a one shot mechanic? learn the mechanic and dodge Got killed by after-death effect? Learn the mechanic and dodge Got swarmed in breach and died? Learn the mechanic 1 death per map makes every map important and to keep you engaged. If you want 6 deaths a map...go play POE 1 were you can take all the skill out of the game and just face smash shit while looking at your excel spreadsheet to figure out how to get 1,000,000 dps |
|
" It does have a purpose, it makes your actions and choices have more meaning and value. You are allowed to use your 6 portals, you can walk in and out up to 6 times or even invite 5 of your friends to join you. You just can't fail the map while retaining the bonuses for not failing the map, but you can keep anything you already picked up! |
|
" Nah, the majority of players hates this mechanic. So it will change. This is a fact. |
|
" word, i just wish it will change in an interesting way instead of just unlocking 5 more portals. |
|
" Wrong. The majority of the .1% of players complaining on the internet about the 1 death mechanic hate it. Between reddit and this forum less than 1% of players interact through these channels and post. GGG has also made it clear they won't be getting rid of it nor the after-death affects. This is the vision of their game and most of us just deal with it like adults. |
|
" Nope, most of us just "deal with it" by uninstalling this trash game and playing an actually fun game that respects our time. This game will have player retention equivalent to Ruthless in PoE 1 if nothing changes. |
