The game is impossible to play in late stage

Character: level 92 Deadeye

The game is impossible to play at this stage.

1. The screen is covered with with spells/actions/enemies - Cannot see anything. This is much worse with headhunter heavy belt.

(The game will lag and eventually crash. The game will deadlock constantly anyway when playing with friends).

2. I die from SOMETHING that I cannot see or dodge because of the above.

3. Hours of progress gone due to the -10% exp

4. Fist through the screen. ToT

For me, it is still a social phenomenon how people torment themselves with this game.

CLEARLY poe 2 should remain more methodical but ggg want to make it just copy of poe 1 so it's not attractive for new players as end-game is what matters.

No one will play methodical campain only then enjoy the zoom fiesta in end-game.
it's just poe 1 with 0 graphic clarity... and tons of mobs to just zoom out

there is nothing to do anyway beside farm to farm faster xD

I don't think they actually want to make it into a Poe1 copy. But that's probably where they'll end up because they haven't thought things through. There's a huge divide between what the skill mechanics/descriptions suggest builds should be and what people actually play. Campaign is probably too long for people to tolerate slower builds enemy density is probably too high for it aswell, map size, defense issues, certain rare enemy mods. It all adds up to a big problem, I just don't think either the game or the playerbase will support 'the vision'. And probably the best solution would be to relax all restrictions and encourage blasting like Poe1 does, at least that way you get some build diversity.

If, at level 92, one death takes you hours to recover from then something is seriously wrong with how you're playing or your build (ie you're stuck running low level content, because you can't handle higher tier content that would give more xp/hr).

the performence is what made me bounch off the game this time around, last time it was the ultra fast mobs killing you even tho your rolled away...

I'm giving RF build by pohx in poe1 a shot, issue is that the economy is BUSTED in PoE1 as well because of the new money printing loot drops.

in the end I guess it's either the development will focus more on performence updates, or I just won't be able to play the game. sad because I payed for it :/ feels really shitty.

I can also think this will become more and more of an issue the more league mechanics are added, league mechanics tend to focus on high density fights, and these are not behaving well on CPU's right now from what I gather.

literarly slowed down to 1-2 fps on tier 7 maps with abuss some times, some times with just opening chests with a bunch of monster packs in. any kind of partical effects with these amounts of monsters affected would create the issue.

my specs are fine before you ask... it's just the complete and utter silence of the team about the issue.

and THERE IS an issue, look at the recommended specs... nobody wants to say it, but how in the hell a Intel® Core™ i5-10500 supposed to be better then a Ryzen 7 7700? it's not, check the benchmarks. but the i5 is the RECOMMENDED one.
https://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-Core-i5-10500-vs-AMD-Ryzen-7-7700/4078vsm2016389 here's the benchmark.

the recommened specs are a lie. and nobody wants to admit it. I don't know what happened there but it should be corrected and allow people to refund if the game is not made for the hardware level specified.

Yay evasion build...getting randomly 1 shoted is the vision of evasion builds, many bosses and certain juiced mobs can hits for 5-10k, better be lucky!

It becomes terrible in Act3-4 multiplayer games already when people finally get their endless AOE skills. Especially bossfights. The whole screen is just filled with fire or something else, you don't see yourself, you don't see the boss, sometimes you notice other players on arena. And what you do is just spam your skill somewhere and move somewhere in hope boss won't hit you there.

Terrible mess )
