SSF is obviously harder, like what the point of saying something this obvious.

Wrong, SSF is the same challenge. The difference is trade and multiplayer. You want players to not be carried or helped by external things, making it by definition SSF.

Or are you gonna backtrack in your mental gymnastics now?

Right.....

SSF isn't harder.

But Softcore is easier.

So SSF is harder ???

Bwhahhahaha.

No it’s not

I can't help you guys if you are stuck in your cognitive bias.

SSF and SC are literally the same game, the only difference being trade and multiplayer i.e. the help it seems you guys are so vehemently trying to remove from a multiplayer game.

With how many people telling you that you are wrong are you going to even consider being wrong ?

If the answer is "I'm never wrong", then we know what's the problem here.

I disagree. GGG needs to triple or quadruple down on punishment in order to promote tankier builds more.

You are correct in that playing glass cannon is a choice. But if you make that choice and keep dying it is on you. Not the game. Not its punishments. On you.

Do you play a class cannon build? Why are you even dying?
I am playing a somewhat tanky character and hardly die in juiced t16s. If you don't die, the punishments don't effect you. So you seem to be doing something wrong. You are not supposed to die.

Almost every death is a choice.

There are many levers in place to control the difficulty. Atlas passives, waystone tier, waystone affixes, ... all of them are controlled by the player. Their choice.

Great, another elitist with a superiority complex.

No, I'm not playing a glass cannon. I have capped res, about 6k EHP and MoM with 2.3k mana and decent regen. No armor or evasion because armor is useless and Sorc side doesnt have much evasion access. I use frost walls and freeze in my build for CC. I have done EVERYTHING I can to be defensive and still be able to hit decently hard, maybe 300k dps.

Despite this, I still run into situations of one shots or unbeatable rares. Juiced maps, not juiced maps, doesn't matter. I even unspecced out of the point that adds more modifiers to rare monsters, just to give myself a chance at survival at the expense of loot. Doesnt matter, there are still many combinations that will delete builds that aren't following the meta.

aLmoSt eVeRy DeAtH iS a ChOicE -- GTFO with that elitist nonsense, you're not impressing anyone. The punishment needs to get toned down massively until GGG gets its shit together with the game balance. I WANT the methodical game they promised, not POE 1.5. Once they have that, then we can talk about punishment. But the punishment needs to go, pronto. You elitists might need CBT to feel fun, but the rest of us don't.

Oh, please, show me how SC differs in gameplay without trade and multiplayer. I'm dying to see what you come up with.
