Upcoming Plans for 0.2.0g

As a group of us and friends were excited to start the game and league at the launch day this time we were let down by the nerf fest slog of what the game became. Mostly all of it tied to loot why was a regal more rare then an exalted or an alchemy? In act 1 I should see 2-3 regals in act 2 2-4 and so on and so on. Progression is tied to shop and gamba which means disenchanting for one a regal shard maybe 2 is beyond point less. Gold is king you guys botched the most important aspect of PoE. Also there needs to be 1 more layer to crafting it’s very lack luster atm. I’ll see you in .3 but right now imho opinion PoE .2 is a flop and if the intentions are the way they were going for .3 I will be skipping it and probably the whole game itself. Last Epoch is great by the way thanks to 11th hour they really know what ARPG fans are looking for XD

This is the way.

Unique bosses should have high chance to reward unique items for build diversity and dopamine.

PoE2 should not become a PoE1 loot pinata.

Bought a supporter pack because I like the direction this game is going. Don't cave in to the loot meth heads.

Its in a good spot now with white mobs cleared on one button builds blue rares and uniques need combos.

ARPGs are loot based games, it's supposed to give tons of loot. It's not an MMO where you get loot on tuesdays, you're supposed to get loot every day, every hour every second, it's an ARPG.

If Path of Exile 2 wants to be this loot starved, damage and loot on 7pm on Tuesdays game fine, but it needs to be VERY CLEAR it is not an ARPG and that it is not the successor to PoE1 but just another random game that is not an ARPG, and then they can maybe at some point change the name to something else because the game is missing Path of Exile in the game.

PS: I can also use the supporter pack argument, because I bought a supporter pack but don't support the direction the game is going. I also bought supporter packs to support the company to make PoE1 great, yet here we are with PoE 1 dead, because of PoE 2.

The two greatest arpg's of all time didn't have loot saturating the ground D1 and D2. PoE1 loot was ridiculous it made the game too easy and a complete eye sore. If you want that stick to PoE1

I completely agree. I think the frustration is due to the complete random nature of the drops and the lack of agency to get upgrades outside of trading.

I personally don't mind farming for mats to then trade for gear so the game feels good to me. But I have to concede, that's not a playstyle that everyone is into.

Especially if people are playing Solo Self Found even on a Trade enabled server. People want to be able to find drops applicable to their class without gambling from scratch. Which is understandable.

I don't want this game to become Diablo 5 because streamers and blasters wanna zoom and get the best items in 5 minutes.

I keep searching the vendors for a Godly Plate of the Whale :)

Crafting will get better. We need quality not quantity.

So all you are saying is we are not getting more movement speed ?

Cmon just a little bit more! PLEASE

+50% (YES ONLY FIFTY, thats all I ask) out of combat movement speed,
make it a skill with a cost if you need to be stubborn like you are... (its weird that insta teleport everywhere is fine, but god forbid if someone starts running !!!! no no no we dont do that here...)

You can make it quiet change, without announcement, no big deal.
I promise you, nothing bad is going to happen.

And at this point I stopped dreaming about swords, fine, keep your damn game to yourself, I bet you couldn't create any fun skill for them at all anyway,
I always wanted to work more...

rue is a horse

I guess it'll be time to try out the game again when this patch drops.

[Removed by Support] Go play Diablo IV and leave us alone.
