Not really ignored. They're doing a lot of moderation of the player base on here, reddit, and X.

Gonna play season 8 of D4 today? I'm gonna jump in, it will be my first season in D4

The main issue with this patch for me (which isn’t spoken about enough) is the target farming part of the endgame.

It’s not the lack of divine orb drops etc

When you look at what there was to do in 0.1

Ritual had the omens and audience with the king to grind for (and the pinnacle boss for the diamond and belt).
They all had massive value and were worth the grind. They nuked the belt and the diamond and now the audience is about 40ex

Breach had the splinters / rings to grind and the pinnacle boss for the HOWA gloves / breach rings etc. Breachstones are now worthless because they nuked the HOWA gloves.

Similacrum had the mana flask which they nuked and so farming this is pointless (not to mention mirrors are STILL broken, so the passives are fucked

Trial of Sekhemas was a great grind. You had plenty of options and there was the jackpot flame incense relic. They nerfed the drop rate on this even though it was already about 0.3%. The Desperate Alliance relic is now worthless about 25% of what it was, mostly as all jewels are now indirectly nerfed as there’s only half the amount of jewel sockets on the tree. Against the darkness nerfed, relics less desired now, temporalis nerfed etc etc

Trial of Chaos (LOL) why is it even still in the game ??? Soul cores all less useful and worthless to grind (Azcapa now gives gold instead of rarity lmao), the shield might as well have been removed from the game, Adorned nerfed by removing half the jewel sockets. I honestly can’t even think of a reason why this trial is even in 0.2

Arbitor - Morrior nuked and pointless now, diamond nerfed for same reasons as the others. Sacred flame actually would have been worth grinding for but apparently some dupers have managed to dupe this and price has halved in last couple of days (which GGG say and do nothing about).

Expedition is the only one that seems better rewarding than 0.1 but even that has had dupers do it with the flask and so that seems pretty pointless to grind as well.

Essence maps - seen one in 2 weeks
The 10 boss in a row map - crap rewards
Other unique maps all irrelevant
Whisps LOL

Overall there’s a lot less to grind for in the endgame than there was in 0.1

I just can’t understand why they have removed target farming from the game. It’s killing it for me

I like how they reacted to everything Zizaran wanted within about 48 hours. Then he dies and leaves the game for LE, meanwhile everyone who has stuck with Poe2 is left with nothing to grind….

I agree with almost all you've said with the exception of nerfing LS... I do not think it needs a nerf, I think the rest of the builds need to be buffed to be inline with the power and speed of LS. The player base has made it very obvious that this is what they are looking for. If it was the "vision" of a slow methodical play style, 80% of builds wouldn't be using LS for clear speed. I personally have said since day one launch all characters need more movement speed and less punishment for casting/attacking.

I have a lich which I changed to blood mage and a deadeye, the difference in clear speed between them is crazy. Bossing the difference is small, but clear speed its deadeye alllll day. The lich I changed because of how slow it moved and the fact that while casting you are penalized yet again making you even slower.

I had an add with elusive, that blue crap that drains your mana, the mod that you have to be right on top of them to attack it and a few other mods on it and all I could do was run and wait for it to kill me cause it was 2x faster than me and I couldn't escape its blue to get mana back to attack. its also painful when 70% of all adds are this new elusive modifier or the one where you have to be right on top of them to attack, I forget the name. so I went back to my rhoa riding deadeye because that's what im looking for in a ARPG. I don't want poe 1 zoom zoom, but I I do want to be able to move around faster than a snail not be stunned by every little thing and not be penalized for casting or dodge rolling. I refuse to dodge roll unless I have no other option, its almost guaranteed to be a death if your surrounded. Dodge roll and then a 1 second delay before you can cast or anything.

I digress... Don't nerf LS, Bring the others more inline with it....
