...this is the end for 99% of normal players. Games become over engineering Souls ARPG Slot Machine Soccer manager trade game.....

holy shit, I am a new player and this post just discouraged me haha

note to self: just chill & play the game and don't expect your character to end up a bad ass. Don't play too much. Relax.

I'll never understand feedback like this other that hardcore ARPG are not for you which is totally fine.

It's too bad ARPGs are the only genre that actually has summoning and is good.

Aside the condescending tone, OP's feedback is useful (provided there is someone who'd listen).
PoE2 is not hardcode at any rate. While there is hardcore mode, that just means take as little risk as possible. The game, itself, is not hardcore (or 'soullike'). Just for ref, if the game was hardcore the yacht club attendance would be significantly lower.

This game was fun, while it was about slaying monsters in story and experimenting with trash builds. It is the opposite of fun in the endgame. Currency hunting, inflation, efficient farming methods, complicated crafting system, xp punishing. It's like you go to free work to prove a point that you are a tough gamer. Sad tbh

Agreed ^ I can't even voice how I feel about the game or the abundant toxicity lingering around after the core player base realizes how much of a chore endgame is and quits for the season my posts keep getting removed in record time, Players just sit in their own echo chambers, last post removed for antagonizing others and It didn't even have anything harsh in it xD just was me pointing out half of this communities defense is Well I'm not having that exact same experience that majority of others are, so its clearly a build and skill issue, I bring up complaints the community has as a whole, oh its just a build issue you lack the skill, I haven't died that much so its a build issue, I try to have productive conversations, bring up what I miss why I think new changes are downgrade, the response I receive Oh you cant run any and every 6 mod map? your just bad have no skill build sucks get good, can't do a 6 mod boss? your bad bro, bring up how map nodes use to be able to have 9 tablets affecting them and now max is 3? well it was too OP before and now you can apply tablets directly to maps which is way better... its no different then before... we just get to use less tablets... truly don't get why my last post was removed, hopefully this one stays!

The kernel of truth in the OP is that if you play for hundreds of hours, the game is boring. The endgame is thin. In a few months, there's supposed to be a major endgame update, so that problem might be solved then.

If you level two different style of characters in the campaign, and play the endgame as long as you're enjoying it, that's easily 200 hours of pleasant game time.

diablo 4 and last epoch are the ones for gamers like you that dont want any sort of chalenges in their game , you should go and try them, poe1 and 2 are not for everyone .
