Does that make sense to anyone? Not trying to shame here, it's just all so confusing to me.

It depends to some extent. Many people simply defend their purchase and feel a strong need to justify it at all costs. This forum is full of weirdos.

Your point?

It's okay to like bad games.
PoE1 is superior to PoE2 in almost every way and I say that as a person who used to hate PoE1 for how clunky and bloated it is.

imagine a game developed for 10+years with that much community feedback being better than a game with 2 bare months, crazy isnt it? your concept of bloat is incorrect anyways.

they could use all that feedback for poe2 also...they just dont care what people want. literally none of the feedback people gave over the years was applied to peo2

These campaign players coming in and telling us how much better PoE 2 is than PoE 1, while most of the long time players view the endgame as 99% of the game. There is always an excuse; "endgame was rushed", "it's EA, chill" and "it will get better". I'm not here to discuss that, of course the game will improve. But AS OF NOW, PoE 1 is a far better game than PoE 2, and of course it is, it has been "perfected" for over a decade.

Anyhow, I'm an endgame player. I know that the campaign will feel "old" in a few months, so I will never use the campaign as a "pro" for PoE 2. Until the PoE 2 endgame can compete with the PoE 1 endgame, PoE 1 will be the superior game in my eyes. And looking at their design decisions (map layouts, towers, no player agency, tediousness of boosting maps and so on), an endgame that can compete with PoE 1's endgame is YEARS away.

Best thing GGG can do is shut down the PoE 1 servers and migrate everything officially to PoE 2.

So far the only better things in poe are:

-better graphics
-portal scrolls dont exist.

I logged in back to settlers hc and the second I started to leveling new char I completely lost desire to back to poe2. Its just an undescribable feeling.

POE1 has horrible mechanics, you cannot even move while using skills. After mid game you cannot even understand what is going on.

POE1 1 is a bad game... that is outdated.. not only technically but design wise.

gotta disgree with OP Graphically POE2 is a million mile better its not even close HOWEVER that there the line stops for POE2 atm,

POE1 is a 10 year+ game with infinite content to a degree, (replayability does drop off eventually) but this is mainly after a 6 month league lol

but yea the movement, pacing of the game, i think and i dont want to be nasty here the DEV's need to stop watching TOP TWITCH STREAMERS and YT'r and thinking that how the majority of players play POE thats like the top 1% of players and unfortunatly there normally the ones people are watching because there on Twitch.

They need to get some average john Hancock stream up and watch them, i mean im kind of a sweat, i have alot of hours, but i dedicated those hours to learn the game, because i wanted to, i have 40/40 afew leagues, and level 100 character, i have some insane crafted items and i have alot of badges

HOWEVER im not and will never be anywhere near as good at POE as say like BEN_ im no where near as good of a crafter as say MBX or that guy who has insane shit ever season (im really sorry i cant remember his name hes American with a beard i think he might be called Ben as well but not sure) i have to work at my gear or have a understanding of the game as QUIN69 (builds are terrible considering he knows so much about the game he defo self cucks himself) but either way these sorts of people are unfortuntly the kinda people GGG bases there decisions on for "nerfing" items and loot, and trying to slow them down (or in Quins case speed him up lol FAT)

However i get to the place they get to but after like 3 weeks or summit which is why i normally play like 2 months of the league but as it stands the "vision" for POE2 there making it slower and harder so all that means is the "better players" will still find a way to get to where they normally are after a few days but this is instead now a week but then ppl like me are now months behind the rest.

this in itself is where POE2 will die for the average player, because they will find it way way too long, too tedious, and too difficult to get things sorted POE2 is basically forced Ruthless league. POE1 is so much better because league are seperate so if you really want that HC cucked version you choose it rather than it being thrust upon you

This is why POE1 is way way way superior to POE2 and i honestly dont see a world when POE1 isnt better than POE2
