Sidestepping the oft debated "they should have named it something else then .. " argument I will say that your experience means you will have no ability to make any kind of rational assessment of my post because you lack context.
Again, you are attacking people you dont know about something you dont know.
I personnaly reported your post for harassment. You are making assumptions about people of who they are, how they are playing the game even if you have no idea about it.
Try to respect the point of view of others. Yes we find (summonner and me at least) the gameplay more engaging, yes ZQSD + roll dodge is an amazing add for some players like us.
Stop personnally attacking us because we dont think like you...

Just watching "DarthMicrotransaction" right now, a warrior playing in HCSSF, still alive.
I actually thoroughly enjoy Darth's content; however, it's maybe a little silly to bring up as he's playing leap/boneshatter smith of kitava like everyone else is. No one should be surprised that potentially the easiest to gear/most "tanky", largely 2 button combo build is doing well in hcssf.

You are trying to get me silenced because I wont agree with you and you think -- I --- am the attacker. Wow ... mind blown.
People disagreeing with you and not giving in is not attacking you. Its called freedom of speech. You didn't have to reply to this thread, you chose to. And I am not violating any forum rules in this post.
At any rate thanks for the bump. Best of luck.

What video is this. The latest video he has is him having a great time in Last Epoch ... which is ... ironic. :)

None of the things you posted are personal attacks.
I never said they are personal attacks. They are emotional, and not rational statements.

The 20 river hags is hyperbole and anyone who has played through act 3 knows what I am trying to convey.
And that is what? What are you trying to convey? That the action mechanic of the hags is bad because you have to deal with action in action RPG instead of bulldozing through a mass of slop?

I shouldn't have to dodge a one shot from a white river hag with a ball of ice.
I think you should. That's what elevates PoE 2 above the slop and we need more enemies like the hag, with dangerous but fair abilities. That's the action. Not moving forward and blowing useless white mobs, but actually engaging with their ACTION mechanics.

Meaningful combat at all encounters is incompatible with the A in ARPG.
No it isn't incompatible. Meaningful combat is needed now more than ever when every other isometric ARPG is a screen delete slop.
river hag is slop design.

Frankly, I have explained this a dozen times in this thread. you wont be convinced if I explain again so I am not going to bother. You are not my audience here.

Someone having a problem with water hags is truly a skill issue.
Water hags are way easier than any enemy found in Soulslike games, despite people insisting PoE2 tries to be DS.
They are only dangerous when a bad combination of rare mobs is aroung them. But that's the problem of the rare mobs modifiers and enemy squad spawn design.

only takes 1 death to figure them out if you're paying attention.
they're boring slop designed to slow progress. no value.

Idk man. When they are alone, I just bait their water balls, jump on them and kill one by one. Nothing too slow.
When they are toghether with some other rares, that poses a good challenge, sometimes too opressive.
It's not stellar design, but I wouldn't call it sloppy.
