2 weeks, no playing.

Strange situation, it's never happened to me before. I played PoE2 for thousands of hours, and suddenly I felt sick of this game.

The loot is garbage, I barely gain any XP. I have 98, 97, 96, 95, and 95 characters (standard). I played this league for a few days, got 94 and 93, got the new league items, but I saw that the league owners are untouchable exploiters, so I gave up. Besides the broken market, the loot in this shitty league is garbage.

I went back to standard, but it still drops blue orbs, my ritual altars spawn level 59 items. I honestly don't see any reason to keep playing PoE2. The loot in this game is garbage, since there are penalties, even playing solo in this crap has a penalty of dropping less rarity.

What a shitty game.

This is the issue you burned out play an fps to reactivate some mental processes and come back if you desire to

unless you truly like build experiments then i'll say take a break, touch some grass, maybe play something else and come back new league.
there's nothing bad on getting sick at some point with league games ;)

0.4 has nothing new for endgame and there is no endgame.
It’s basically the same game with a different class or weapon.
Path of Exile 2 is just a leveling game, that’s it.

I was wondering recently why D2 still feels so good after all the years? Chris Wilson was calling it a "piece of art to be perserved" in a recent interview if I am not mistaken.

But what you do there is pretty repetitive. And presentation wise it is outdated, animations and all. What makes the difference is the loot. It does not overwhelm you with heaps of meaningless crap, but if you find something it can be amazing. So its all about ground drops in the end, not what you do actually.


With the focus of 3.28 on improved ground loot, maybe there is also hope for POE2 in that direction.

I wouldn't say it's a shitty game if you've clocked that many hours.. but I will say that maps are terrible. Literally every other avenue of playing at least provides you with divine orbs. Chaos trial, sekhema, temple are all extremely profitable and temple actually gives XP. Maps are just pointless. The frags to kill arbiter sell for like 1 div per citedal.. if you happen to get a triple or double drop whoopee.. 3 divs. You can sell the Chaos temple frags for 26 div a pc right now and temple is like 350 divs if you set it up.

So map bosses either need to be made to drop 4-5 divs or so (after you've killed at least 80% of the monsters so people won't just boss rush) to be in line with the 15 minutes it takes to do chaos trial and temple drops needed to be nerfed a LONG time ago.

They could easily extend the life of this game by allowing you to purchase cosmetics with in game currency. It would at least give us something to work towards.

There's just nothing to do at endgame except one of the league mechanics. The core basis for endgame (maps) is a waste of time but that's where MOST of the variety is.

I think the focus in POEx is generally way too much on dropping currency instead of gear. Maybe GGG should considering renaming themselves? ;)
