0.5 needs to land these things

The game needs a total shift.

1. Fix performance. Consoles are unplayable. Audiovisual glitches galore.

2. Lower mob density by roughly 70%, make them tougher/stronger. Make combat way more engaging and fun.

3. Make loot drops significantly better quality and lower the drop rate equally as much. Stop with the junk collector sim.

4. Adjust effects and gameplay so there’s visual clarity.

5. Make it so ascending to godhood is ASPIRATIONAL, not a guarantee. If everyone and their mother is a god then nobody is a god. Stop with the excessive power creep free pass.

6. Make the game a journey, not a meme casino sim.

1. they will at some point, never had the game unplayable tho so it has to be related to something else (i play xbox)

2. Maps are already empty, lowering mob density doesnt make combat more fun/engaging/meaningful because player power will remain unchanged, instead give mobs 3x hp so nobody can blow up screens but still feel enough power to melt them down (pack by pack), which is different from blowing them up (3 or 4 packs at a time).

3. Agreed

4. Agreed

5. Agreed

6. Kinda Agreed

1.Agreed

2.Maybe 20%

GGG when 0.50 info??

I just don’t see a way out of this if GGG doesn’t put their big boy pants on and start carving a line in the sand.

Right now, we have no visual clarity. The screen is filled with filler mobs and random visual vomit. Showing this to anyone is embarrassing. People see that stuff and they look at you like “wtf are you playing dude?”.

Performance is in the gutter. Unplayable.

Overall gameplay is literally non-existent after a certain point and it doesn’t take long at all. No combos, no dodging, no positioning, nothing. Wtf?

Loot garbage simulator. For real? Made an entire new game just to go back to the same 💩 you had in the original game? Like, come on.

Idk what 0.5 will bring but whatever is happening in 0.4 is just not it. I wasn’t promised of PoE1.1 and I paid for PoE2.

I have a feeling that you just need to find yourself a different game to play.

1. Fix performance. Consoles are unplayable. Audiovisual glitches galore.
Yup +1

2. Lower mob density by roughly 70%, make them tougher/stronger. Make combat way more engaging and fun.
Not possible. Posting that is a bait at this point (works both ways - either zooming or slower combat advocating is pointless).

3. Make loot drops significantly better quality and lower the drop rate equally as much. Stop with the junk collector sim.
That would mean predefined mods on items or something to make items dropped always good. Can't have that in a game which itemization systems works like in poe. Just can't work, sorry.

4. Adjust effects and gameplay so there’s visual clarity.
Yup +1

5. Make it so ascending to godhood is ASPIRATIONAL, not a guarantee. If everyone and their mother is a god then nobody is a god. Stop with the excessive power creep free pass.
That feeling you have might be caused by 0.4 and how easy it is to gear up. I share the passion for difficulty and the best I came up with was to add god-tier content with rewards that have no market value like pushing rating in some content to get cosmetics at the end of the league.

That's a vision. You can hope it aligns with the Big Boys.

not sure about .5 but AT SOME POINT


Players need a hard nerf in damage.


We need to get ahead of this power creep problem we are having.


Id be okay if +skills just disappeared for a league and they worked on something in the meantime.

Its all unnecessary, over the top, damage. On every single archetype in the game.

Not even weapon skills need a single + skill level to be viable
