Insert harmless comment that targets no one here for the power tripping god complex to delete for the 7th time.

It's almost like whining about developers isn't feedback. Completely worthless noise.

The truth is, he who shall not be named, does not listen to feedback anyway.. he doubles down as we have seen in recent interviews. Just bad for the company is all.

Most of us saw ZIZ whining like a child and Jonathan asking for specific examples and constructive feedback.

If that was your take then I'm not sure what to tell you.

You're welcome to your opinions, but please try to stick to the facts.

Regarding interviewers, Ziggyd and Raiz are/were the best at them imo.

I find it interesting that people think 0.1 was better than 0.2 - in the 3 videos I did of 0.1 people were flaming me for talking trash about it but now people are talking trash about 0.2 whereas I think 0.2 is MILES ahead of 0.1 but I guess most people are visitors of the game and expect million things to be buffed for some reason but as we know GGG better they love to nerf everything.

Im playing Bone Cage Lich and it doesnt have the best clear or Bossing but it gets T15 maps done in about 5-6 minutes. Also, Pin is a good mechanic.

Personally, I dont like the change to rares and how they got weaker nor being visible on maps as it doesnt feel like a game anymore and instead just objective based. Idk... just feels off granted I still kill most monsters in a map but I still dont like it.

Im also not a fan of the Delve like Atlas - it sucks massive balls nor am I am fan of Towers (they made it worst this league).

Honestly, they should redo the entire thing or attempt to put in PoE 1 Atlas as thats actually good.

I like the game - I am okay with it being what it is. PoE 2 feels like a legitimate successor to Diablo 2.

Granted I would have been happier if it was literally combined with PoE 1 like it was originally was going to be but meh...

I do like to see Yellow monsters in maps.

Those layouts are not like in poe 1 that were more straigh foward maps + u only had to kill the boss to get the map done...

I like tower concept, but I agree with u, that I still prefear the conqueror stone atlas. Also I have problems with the Tower thing since we have to expend 3 ex in oppening a 3 tablet tower since the map has to have 6 affixes.

This should be free in my opinion. Or them should give us many more exalted orbs.

As a beta I think is normal that 1.0 come with the hype and everyone get happy cause them finally got the game tham have been waiting for years. I were one of those...
Still I also saw many things to improve back then.
Same way I still see them now.

From here is just about confidence in the company and the lead of the proyect.

The main problem here is that the old POE directors were loved and respected by the comunity. But we dont know Jonathan yet.

The company is the same. but people trust might not be the same.

And that, probably make a big difference.

This guy have to prove himself.

I also would have loved that them took more stuff from POE 1 and care less about making the game easier to understand.
I mean, yeah thats good.
But there were many things that didnt need to be simplified. Just better explained in game.

Why would you play a game you hate this much for 250 hours? Do you enjoy torturing yourself?

I think GGG should ignore all opinions of people who play a game that they apparently hate for this long. These are not normal people with a normal mindset and normal opinions.

Its a coping mechanism.

Its like when people refuse to get a new car when their transmission is almost completely shot, or when people refuse to believe a loved one is dead, or when people are alcoholics, and even though they have the means, and even if everyone around them can see the writing on the wall they won't let it go. They think that if they keep trying one more time it'll be better or different this time or that they can escape their fate on their own.


Its the psychological expression of denial.

I wish posts like this perma-flagged the forum account with something so we could all laugh in 3 months when those people come back, and know to ignore anything they say.

Can't help but cringe at these complaint posts from people with thousands of hours of play time and almost zero investment in the game with supporter packs or anything.

If someone has less investment, they have less right to write their opinion ?
And how you know my investment ? You can only see the supporter packs, but not the stash tabs, and even the lot of skins..

The game just isn't fun.

It's not a lack of auction house.
It's not a lack of loot.
It's not a lack of endgame content.
It's not a lack of crafting.
It's not the speed.
It's not bad skillgems.
It's not lack of build options and diversity.

It's ALL of them.
Jonathan ruined this franchise, and he clearly gets upset any time anyone dares say his vision is wrong, and simple fixes takes months, and then he either completely blasts a build to smithereens, or makes a half-asses measure not really fixing the problem.

GGG as a studio seems dead to me, honestly.

I share your sentiment too OP
+1

I am getting more and more frustrated as days pass by.
Heavily starting to regret spending my time with this game and spending money on it.

what 0 investment? im already over 15k USD donation to GGG. . if not 20k already.. . if someone put 1k hours into PoE 2 it doesnt mean the game is good or he enjoyed them.. . i played alot in 0.1 to learn the game becuase as im here 11 years now since 2014 i had full and absolute trust in GGG to fix issues and change direction..

0.2 showed it and so did the interviews all made it very clear what is the new direction of poe 2 regardless if we players like it or not. .

infact a think a complain and feedback from someone with over 1k hours into the game is much more valid than someone who got his ass kicked on second campain zone and quit with less than 5 mins in the game. . atleast this guy with 1k hours actually really tried the game and gave it good chance..

also what does amount of support as donation say about the feedback? do you think that becuase you bought some packs your opinion is more correct than someone who didnt? and if he doesnt enjoy the game and like the direction of PoE 2 why would he even donate and support GGG on a project he doesnt like and unlikely to play long term? let me tell you this ive spent well beyond 15k usd into poe and ive bought the poe 2 support packs (480 usd) many many times to give many people beta keys and im telling you i will donate no more and i will not support GGG any longer not a penny untill poe 1 get some focus graphic and engine update ... or untill poe 2 completely change direction to be PoE and an ARPG game and not a total bs story game that you play once and never want to touch again.
