Questions I hope we get answers for soon
Why aren't charm slots tied to Belt Item level as an implicit? Are you aware of how bad charms feel and how bad they are as a mechanic from a user perspective?
Why are mace skills so garbage? What is up with all the "Reduced attack speed" and attack time penalties backed into everything for warrior side of the tree? Act's 1-3 Normal Mode are generally pretty enjoyable in terms of gameplay - disregarding utterly mournful map layouts and back tracking - but Cruel and onward feels like you're just playing endgame PoE1, blasting and zooming at massive speed. It feels like an entirely different game. What's up with this disparity? PoE2's endgame is awful. Waystones/Tablets/Towers are honestly the worst mechanic ever, when are you going to change them to something that isn't utterly awful? Why did you remove sextants from PoE1, and then just add them back in to PoE2 but they're even worse? What's up with minion ai? Why are my minions so slow? Why don't my minions have Phasing when interacting with eachother? Minions are stupid and can't walk through doors or over bridges/in gaps. When are you going to fix this? When I Direct Minions they go afk for a bit afterwards, why do they do this? Why is minions AI so so so bad?? When can we expect more weapon types? When can we expect to see more class/ascendancy added? When can we expect to see more support gems? When can we expect to see more skill gems?\ When can we expect to see Acts 4/5/6? Why are Jewelers Orbs so unfathomably rare? I've over 500,000 kills and haven't seen a single Perfect, and like 3 Greaters. WTF?? Why is Energy Shield so ludicrously overpowered? Why armour so shit? Why life so shit? Why is vendor gear so heinously expensive to the point where you can't even engage with them while leveling because it costs 150% of your total gold to buy a single rare item from the vendor? Why is gold so rare? Are you ever going to think about letting us change ascendancy? Why is magic find so over powered? Remove magic find, up base drop rates to "perceive" that we have 100% magic find rate. Why game so bad? When PoE1 league? When do we get to use all 6 of our portals? One portal nonsense sucks shit. Why do enemies move so nightmarishly fast and we are so slow/immobile? Why do enemies do so much damage to the point where the meta is to 100-0 the entire screen before they have a chance to react to your presence? Why are DoT Builds just "Hit Builds" in disguise? Why are there so few supports for Chaos DoT skills such as Essence Drain - it currently has 1 viable support gem. One. (Swift Affliction) and perhaps Drain Elements if you are able to apply an ailment first. Are you aware of how awful the skill tree is, and are there any intentions of changing it? It feels like it's completely placeholder, is it? Did you intentionally design the skill tree to be like this, or was it just rushed out? ~ Seph Last bumped on Jan 8, 2025, 5:52:08 PM

This whole game feels rushed out way too early. And the timing right before holidays sure was a choice.
Minion AI sounds like its horrible lol Honestly just waiting for 3.26, hopefully its in february since they said "that is the plan" for it in an interview. Assuming nothing slows them down/goes wrong and they don't need to yet again allocate and siphon resources from PoE 1's development to PoE 2. Also the belt charm system felt like it had 0 thought and testing put into it, it took me literally 1 minute to go "why don't we start gaining the 2nd slot in Cruel and 3rd slot in maps?". It actually made no sense that extra slots were on a super high ilvl base and they're a mod on the item instead of an implicit. Even though the number of charms itself is actually seperate from the other mods on the belt. Again these kinds of things are just signs that this EA was released far too early. And then you have the endgame which is a downgrade in terms of player agency compared to PoE 1. And the amount of freedom and choice you have with the PoE 1 atlas is what makes it so amazing, being able to block league mechs and spec into any of em whenever even while progressing it. This endless atlas has no feeling of progression, its aimless. And boss league skill trees are just worse than the current Atlas Tree we have in PoE 1. And yeah this game currently is just Ruthless 2.0 but also all SC players are forced to play semi-hardcore with 1 portal bs I don't think this game will be releasing fully this year, and if it does it will be undercooked and rushed. |

I have stopped playing a while ago.
It was definitely released way too soon, it should not have been put into "early access" in this state, it's so under the bar honestly. Hopefully 3.26 will be good. I will be surprised if PoE2 comes out in the next 14-18 months. There is just no way. Unless they do the "Release now, fix later" route. ~ Seph Last edited by sephrinx#7591 on Jan 8, 2025, 5:42:40 PM

Lots of studios are making terrible games. It’s unfair to expect anything different from this one.

" True. I've expected far too much and constantly been disappointed by Blizzard for example. Until eventually I just quit WoW lmao |
