The craziest part about PoE2 for me is how it still has 80k players still. After less than 2 hours of playtime, I looked at the skill tree, and gem system, and the 1 shot mechanic bossfights and predicted exactly what late game would be like.

I still gave it a few chances, but to still be playing it is downright pathetic. Even the first release of Chronicon (1 dev project) is worlds more complex and better than PoE2.

The other repulsive fact about how pathetic the PoE2 'community' is, is that they LITERALLY gave you guys rejected projects from Poe1 like Nemesis mods and other unpopular league mechanics.

Then, to add the worst insult to injury... the devs lied to you. "We have DOUBLE the amount of new content coming!".

As soon as the streamers shill contracts end and they move onto the next flavor of the month game, the player count will drop from 80k to 5k. Most of the people enjoying PoE2 are the types who sit in a twitch chat for 10 hours of a Kripp stream to see their Tier 2 emoji in the feed that nobody sees.

TLDR: The game is terrible, 1000x less complex than PoE1 because of the restrictive gem system, and only a few builds were even viable. They made the game super grindy and slow to quite literally slow people down from seeing how lacking the end game is. Every single friend of mine who hit end game quit soon after. It's just boring and the chase items suck as well. Even D3 pulls its shorts to its kneecaps and squats on Poe2.

I won't be surprised to see 33-50% negative steam reviews within 2 weeks for PoE 2.
