Zoomers will never be happy in PoE 2.

They think the game starts in endgame.

They play the minimap and spreadsheets more than the actual game.

They measure fun by divs/hour.

They want PoE 2 to be a re-skin of PoE 1, which is up and running and they are not playing it.

They need to see constant all-screen explosions and nothing else.

They want more portals and no xp loss, because making a mistake slows them down and that is unacceptable, so their "logical" solution is to eliminate the game's feedback, not their mistakes.

They play the fastest class, not the one they could actually like.

They constantly attack any feedback that the game is too easy and too fast. Melting bosses in 2sec is the intended way to boss fight, they think.

They create the same forum posts (for PoE 2) on the same topics again and again.

They want such OP crafting that they don't need to watch any item drops anymore, just deterministically crafting all the best items.

They want Implicit movement speed on boots, so they don't need to sacrifice any other stat. They just want things GRANTED.

They create Youtube videos always named like "MOST BROKEN BUILD". "EXPLOITING THIS SKILL", "UNETHICAL DMG" etc.

They constantly complain about everything. Speed ofc, mob density, loot, something touching their glass-cannon character with 1k hp and killing it. Everything is game's and GGG's fault they think.

Seems like they essentially want to turn the game into Cookie Clicker without ANY challenge, moderate interaction or effort.

Did we really need yet another of that type of post?

Forum litteraly full of your war zoomer vs methodical.

D2 is among the slowest ARPG'S in history and even it didn't have "slow meaningful combat",and virtually no APRG does.

You guys are basically asking for a different game entirely and getting upset when 90% of the fan base tells you "lol that's impossible".Slow is antithetical to the genre.

Getting mad at reality won't change anything.Your asking for something that's simply not gonna happen unless GGG literally Guts EVERYTHING.

You guys can make a thousand posts on this but unfortunately its just not something that's gonna happen.

GGG should state this game to be even more challenging and slower - for just sake of POE 2 and POE 1 zoomers to stop invading game with hate and hope to destroy it's gameplay and pace of action with it's null nothingless zooming.

I wish GGG to annouce - game will be even more slower and harder.


Slowly people who loved release 0.1 difficulty leaving - as game is more of poe 1 and they will not return unless GGG will masively return with core design of pace of combat to 0.1.

When it happen - the zooming community will yell and GGG be spammed with negative reviews - but it's only time. And people who will enjoy the game - will just play it and slowly rebuild the player-base.

This is exactly what they want.
It doesn't help all ther popular streamers (zizaran, crouching tuna, darthmicrotransactions, ghazzy, etc) want the EXACT same brain rot game play.

Except it's not impossible and already exists if you don't chase meta. I have made some very enjoyable off-meta builds that synergize multiple skills across combat. Last league I had a Cold Stormweaver that used Freezing Shards, Frost Darts, Frost Nova, Frost Bomb, Snap, Eye of Winter, and Elemental Storm together. It was very fun, largely nuked bosses (except Pinnacles where I had to actually play for a minute or so), and was a great experience all around.

The one-shot, one-button meta is a PoE1 pastime that should stay in PoE1 instead of being bludgeoned into PoE2 where it doesn't belong. The vision they emphasize for PoE2 exists when you aren't chasing top DPS meta that, frankly, abuses errors in math.

+1
but community from poe 1 and diablo 4 (zooming one) scream louder and we are just chill guys who want to play game as it was promised without delivering so much feedback. As them are united much more - as poe 1 have YEARS of building that community. And most players of poe 2 who loved it - and why game was so sucesfull just leaving.
