GIVE US A LOOT FILTER ALREADY

Let’s cut the shit: it’s beyond frustrating that we’re still waiting for a proper loot filter, especially for us PS5 and GeForceLATER players. I’m not here to dance around the issue, I’m here to make it clear that the current state of loot management in this game is absolutely unacceptable. You’re pushing out so much loot that the game becomes unplayable at certain points. It’s not just a minor inconvenience; it’s a core problem that’s fucking up the whole experience.

Let’s start with the basics. The loot drops in Path of Exile are overwhelming, and not in a good way. If you’re playing on a PS5 or with a GeForceLATER, you’re hit with a literal avalanche of shit you don’t need every single second. It’s constant, never-ending, and makes the game feel like you’re drowning in clutter. You can’t even focus on the actual gameplay, the mechanics, or the strategy. It’s just pure chaos, a constant barrage of items you’re never going to use, and it kills the immersion.

I know, I know — the hardcore fans love the chaos, the idea that every item could be something great. But the reality is, most of it is just trash. It’s the same five to six crappy items dropping every few seconds, and it’s impossible to tell what’s worth keeping and what’s just taking up space. It’s a waste of time, energy, and your attention.

If you’ve spent any amount of time grinding for loot, you know exactly what I mean. You spend hours in the game, clearing mobs, but what are you left with? A bunch of junk you can’t use, can’t sell, and can’t even bother to pick up anymore. Your inventory becomes a cluttered mess, and even trying to scroll through it becomes an exercise in frustration. You waste so much time sorting through this mess that it actively detracts from the fun you should be having.

What makes it worse is that there’s no effective system in place to help manage all this garbage. We don’t have a proper loot filter to sort through the good, the bad, and the ugly. It’s honestly embarrassing at this point. Other games have figured this out — you can create filters, highlight important items, or simply filter out the noise. But in Path of Exile, we’re just left with the raw, unfiltered chaos, forced to deal with it while hoping for that one item that might actually be worth something. The drop rates make it even worse, because even if something decent does drop, you might not even notice it amongst all the noise.

This isn’t just a “minor issue” for a few players, either. No, this is a problem that affects the entire player base, especially those of us on consoles. The difference in performance, the sheer volume of loot, and the lack of a filter system make it borderline impossible to play. You’re forced to grind with no real sense of progress because you can’t even keep up with the flood of items. You’re so focused on managing the mess that you can’t enjoy the game the way it was intended to be played.

Here’s the bottom line: Give us a loot filter. It’s not a luxury, it’s a fucking necessity. We need the ability to separate the garbage from the gold. We need to be able to customize our loot experience so that we’re not wasting hours sifting through crap. And we need it now — not in some far-off update, not as some side feature, but as a core function of the game. Other games have done it, and they’re better for it. So, why the hell hasn’t Path of Exile?

Stop ignoring this problem. Give us the tools we need to make the game fun again. Until then, we’re just going to keep bitching about it.
