I just wanted to say that I am having zero fun playing this game.
|
I was going to quit until another update.
I listened to Ziz Interview. Questioned if I was just being uncompromising and went back at the character that was lvl 36 monk . Sill in normal. Fighting Jamanra. Im not meta i know this. Im using a yellow rare quarterstaff. I have +3 to melee skill i believe. 45 lightning resist using the lightning charm . have 45% evasion. Im using gas grenade with physical monk attack. Its way too long!!!!!! I lost feeling in my thumb at 7 minutes. Im not kidding I cant feel my thumb for the last 2 minutes. I hit him like 250-400 times This is way too long. I am not happy I won.. Im relieved its over. Im not looking forward to doing it ever. Im not looking forward to another campaign . I was listening to Rax at the time so you get his commentary on the Ziz interview for background for a bit. This fight is too long !!!!! The requirement for a person just tinkering with a build is too high. This is normal .. the second boss , 15% through the campaign... WTF.. https://youtu.be/G8fqz6bWlLE Last edited by Jitter912#4278 on Apr 9, 2025, 10:44:39 AM

Well the interview show me what they think about the game. First question that he asked was something like. Is this the phase of the game, the slow souls like.. And they answer with such a question mark like they didnt even think about the slow phase game or they want another direction. GGG lost the plot on this one i feel like. If they cant explain how there game should feel or play like WTF should players do. Cause now, i have boss fights around 20 min or so. Auto attack, my way threw the campaign should not be the default. there is only 3 skills that deal more damage then auto attack xD.

I feel much the same as the majority of prior posts. The game really really sucks right now. The heavy armor on the Faridun infantry is ridiculous, then you get swarms of spear throwers from other platforms that range you to death. The dreadnought keeps scaling up, and apparently to loot just dribbles into nothing if you are over the supposed level of the zone as you entered it.
As far as I can see, GGG has not done one bit of adjustment at all in several days. I've been stuck on the vanguard for over three days now and it just gets worse everytime I come back to see if any promised nerfs based on assessments of GGQ data assessments have made it through comitte and dropped since the last time I logged in. They haven't, and I have thrown in the towel until I see a new patch drop, and it better cover Act 2 end boss. One more try and if I don't make it through Jamanra, I'm done. GGG better get their act together or I'm gonna slap a tariff on. |

my 5 eurocents:
0.1 I didn't get to the maps - there was other things to do IRL. 0.2 I thought I'd get to the maps and see what the endgame looks like. I couldn't beat the last boss in ACT2. My friend helped - but we also beat him 10 times. Now I'm at the Viper boss in act3 and I understand that if you don't play 101% perfectly - you won't kill the boss. 1-2 shot mechanics... I play minion/essence drain combo - still no transition to pure minions. I don't participate in the market. The loot in the campaign is pathetic. I consider games to be a way to spend free time and relax. POE2 feels like torture... In comparison: POE1 - the campaign was easy and introduced CHAR and BUILD. The real challenge started with the maps. POE2 - HARDCORE and perfection already in the first parts of the campaign. I understand that I won't get to the maps again... Congratulations GGG - there will be no more money from me. Good luck! |

I felt forced to level as a chaos dot build, it takes so long to unlock certain spear skills I couldn't make the build I wanted, and early spear felt super weak. Finally got the skill gems, gold and gear to respec and it's terrible, does no damage. Gave up and quit because I don't have any motivation to level or respect again.

" Bro wtf are you doing? Had Jamara down in 2 trys 3-5 minutes. Your using 1 skill and the wrong one. Just equip all skills and see what works or take a look at it's weaknesses and advantages. Hint: Ice is red. So go with cold attacks. Gas grenades lol. They are great when you throw 5 of them with armour explosion etc. My advice. Stop complaining about the game and use your energy to think. Or just get every skill gem you can get and try around. Last edited by allesdreck666#9123 on Apr 10, 2025, 4:24:03 AM

" Hello mirror version of myself, I rolled lich ed/c got to maps after 3 days and went oh this is me for the next 15 tiers the gameplay didnt change from level 10. Thought about rolling the lightning spear thing that clears maps but then also figured id just wait for LE 7 days togo. |

Dont worry it doesn't get any better lvl 77 havent found a single upgrade from maps and wearing gear i found in act 2. Loot is 50 percent of the fun in an arpg , these clown devs are clueless
