The devs dont want you to play poe 1

Don't play hc if it hurts you irl so much to die.
It's the name of the game. I switched to sc long time ago and still find daily enjoyment from running highend content. |

" nope I will never play sc in such easy game. There is zero point playing in an environment where everyone has everything and everyone is doing 40b dps for no reason. I will let the kids have fun. |

" I don’t know what to tell you. Reflect isn’t that big of a deal, even in HC. You either become immune to it or roll past the mod. If you’re playing HC, reading map mods is a complete no brainer, and if you’re dying in HC to reflect damage, that one’s fully on you.

But PoE2 is so bad still, I even dont know how many $ need to pay me to play it. Its not the game yet, as it seems in my eyes. Not yet. And its not even released, so..
Not a choice. p.s. And yes, I'm not supporting forced Ruthless mechanics in. It should be choice. Tho, there are alot more problems what devs presenting as features. Strongly dislike this, sry! Last edited by DarkJen#6961 on Jan 18, 2026, 7:33:09 AM

reflect, a mechanic that has been in poe for the entire 13 years its been open release has been there to stop people playing the game with the anticipation of them releasing poe2 12 years in the future...
and thats the opening logic, thats not an absurd footnote, thats the first bit of 'evidence'? lol this forum is a strange window into just how detached from reality a lot of people are. these sort of threads that keep coming up endlessly. its enough to shake my faith in our species. I love all you people on the forums, we can disagree but still be friends and respect each other :)

Still more "hinged" than Twitter at least. You could say the door's still on.
There's not even any point arguing about it either @Snorkle. You cannot reason someone out of a position they haven't reasoned themselves into The opposite of knowledge is not illiteracy, but the illusion of knowledge.

Launch schedule is very obvious sabotage of PoE1. I hate it.
PoE2 = Patch of Slog

Is it just pride at this point that GGG won't realise how bad 2 is and how much 1 suffers because of it?

We get a Phrecia event so clearly they still want us to play poe1.
I like a good dooming as much as the next guy but, in this case, not justified. POE2 should be the ruthless vision experience and POE1 should be the zoom power fantasy sandbox to capture both audiences.
I petition to return all the fun stuff that was removed or nerfed over the years back into POE1. |
