I gave this league 12 h but POE2 is Just Anti-Fun

[Removed by Support]

They think inconveniencing the player = difficulty

Pretty much, the game is already dead on the water, lost 60% of its playerbase in just 3 days, i quit day 1 but came back to give the new acts a try (an absolute chore by the way, i'd rather have cruel)

And baiting old and new players with a "new trade system" you can't use unless you swipe your card was the final nail in the coffin for 0.3
I gave in and tried it again tonight, having not played since December. Character movement is still horrible. The character movement is not responsive, character still feels like it's slipping and sliding all over the place, bosses are still incredibly boring and gimmicky, sprint is so awkward that I didn't even bother using it after the second time. I don't think any amount of time is going to fix this game.
CHILL OUT GUYS GIVE THEM A FEW YEARS AND THE GAME WILL BE PLAYABLE .
I AM IN ACT 1 AND THE GAME IS PERFECT I HAVE NO ISSUES !!!!!444!!FOUR

lmao
I enjoy the more slow-paced game; reaching the endgame within an hour isn't fun. And I was never any big fan of PoE 1.

Sure, the campaign could need some tweaks, like more linear maps for faster progress.

But if you are bored within hours, the game probably isn't for you in the first place, and that's ok.

Yes, I feel the same. I played back in December and gave it a good try with about 40 hours, but I just couldn’t force myself to keep playing it was very boring. The combat felt really slow, and having to dodge roll all the time was annoying. I tried it again this morning and almost instantly got the same feeling. Also, the Dark Souls–style boss fights just aren’t for me, and since this game is like 80% boss fights, I just can’t do it. I’ve come to the understanding that this game just isn’t for me. I’m just glad PoE1 is getting updates again.


unfortunately +1. And i was even trying to force me to like it to have a good content cycle. But it is way, way to slow and not enjoyable to play, atleast not as an arpg
I haven't finished the campaign in either 0.2 and now 0.3 again probably.

I just don't know why the game feels so exhausting. I don't even play any bad performing builds, kinda trying the exact opposite and, while it works, I always feel so exhausted and tired when I close the game.

I always get that thought of "Do I really want to deal with this?" and just close the game. Debating about uninstalling at this point.
Bro, I can tell based on this post that you never played melee, because if you did, you would know melee has been crap since 0.1.

Quarterstaves don't work without the Charged Staff skill and that skill doesn't work without the Sacrifice engine to generate Power Charges on demand.

Hammers didn't work because you didn't have a reliable projectile with which to kite and a disengage mechanic.

same uinstalled the game got stuck at torvian. gonna play poe 1 instead this has nothing to do with arpg its just arpg elements with souls like game


got the same experience. played whole campaign the whole night and it feels like a dark souls bossrun where you out-trial and error one shot boss mechanics. especially the interlude was boss after boss.

but there is one thing different to the soulsgames: dark souls combat is fair. if you stat vigor or life like every new player would, there are no one shots. only some special bosses in the series got a one shot attack and it is well introduced so you know the next time.
