my poe1 league start:
- can play whole week 18h/day and have fun
- no life any league for 2weeks straight
- have my own league start rituals and it feels like christmas time as a kid

poe2 league start:
- boring, slow and tedious
- took me multiple sessions to beat campaign ~10h (was so boring)
- im so bored of doing 1hour of interludes (or what its called) that im nor sure i want to even get to maps anymore.
- i really wanted to like this game but i just cant, i may still tomorrow get to maps and end game but man im not sure xD

feels bad to buy support packs in future when that money goes to poe2 (mostly)

pray for 3.29 patch next month :P

After few days still no motivation to play. Just cant suffer anymore :(

As others have posted, melee seems questionable but I haven't really played it yet as I am waiting for them to flesh that out. I don't plan on playing melee until full release and after I make a few ranged.

I played Wyvern Druid last league and I loved it. The Oil barrage/flame breath was just fun. I have played the summoner witch 3 times now and I love it. Can't wait for them to flesh out Specters and more over time.

Playing SSFHC, I actually really enjoy the campaign and historically, I usually quit shortly after getting to maps due to boredom. So far, the end game feels far better to me this time and can't wait to push further. But I also didn't play the shit out of the previous versions of end game.

Anyone feeling the same? I have absolutely zero hype for it though. I disagree with almost everything they are adding/doing.

I am not going to list feedback because it does not really matter. The devs have their own vision. I hope people have fun though. Certainly some will really like it.

Your post and title are "rage bait" but I'll give you some advice. Do you like RUST? Call of Duty? League of Legends? Factorio? Diablo: Immortal? If you like all of those games, great! If you dislike any of those games it's because they aren't for you.

PoE 2 might not be for you. That doesn't make it a "bad" game or "still bad" as you put it. I think most people who either enjoy PoE2 since 0.1 or were on fence are finding this 0.5 to be amazing.

That said, I have several friends who love PoE1 and refuse to learn or "like" PoE2... It is what it is. Those same friends play Diablo 2 classic, Runescape, and other games that they learned 20 years ago and keep going back to. Some people simply don't want to learn new things and just stick with what's easy. Other people don't like that PoE2 has many "souls like" features that require you to dodge and position in early-mid game. Endgame is the same as PoE1... you face tank everything and instantly melt all bosses.
