But sure, tell a PoE veteran to "learn" lel.

I love reading your posts. You are so humble and grounded, I dont understand why no one is learning despite you being so wise.

I also dont get why anyone would want to skip this exciting experience of raising a second or third character while we have awesome acts, much variety and fun mechanics. Cant wait to collect fireflys in the next league!!
Fortunately we have devs who stick to the good old stuff, screw this wannabe modern nonsense!

"I literally just paraphrased bullshit you can find en mass by just clicking through a handful of topics on page 1 of this subforum."

This is a you problem.
People complaining about stuff do this for a reason. Not being able to comprehend why is yet again, about you.
Or do you seriously think releveling something in this game for the 100th time is anything else then tiresome?

Hhahahahhaa this response is gold.
And sums up a lot of good things.

Iam glad there are still some exiles with intelligence well leveled on the forums ;)

Honestly, why not give everyone the option to create fully geared (with perfect gear ofc) level 100 characters from the start? I mean, leveling and killing monsters to find gear is just so repetitive and boring, why not just skip it? It's so outdated in a 2020 game. Modern games should just reward you for logging in, people's time is far too valuable to be wasted on actually playing games.

Funny that you say that and typical aswell
I can have my opinion just like you.
Dont put words in my mouth however. I never said i didnt want them to give me a 100 character and didnt like to grind.
Your opinion is not gonna change mine. Leveling alts feels boring for me. Especially in a boring way to long story that i played 100 of times.

A shortcut would do for me aswell. Anyways you are just ignorant and because you like the system you try to shut my opinion down.
Not gonna work. Bye sir lol.

PS: if you want to be able to respec at will so that your choices don't matter, there is a game that offers exactly that, it's called D3. And it actually got a lot of backlash because of it. If you can just respec at will for no cost then build choices become irrelevant.

tell me what weighting not being able to respec at will truly has.
i dont know anything about the community of d3 but i dont think it got a backlash because they can respecc anytime, this is just no reason to get upset, its just a dumb mechanic defended by those who cant get their heads around smooth gameplay.

since we have regret orbs and everyone participating in trading has the currency to buy enough of them this shiddy nonsense gets trivialized anyway.

its just another inconvinience out of so many in this game just being there because why not i guess.

It's a very basic concept really, if a choice has no consequences and can be reverted without any costs then the choice becomes outright meaningless. You no longer have to think about "what build should I make and how should he look like" before hand. You just go, level a character and then respec him at will to play whatever you may ever want. I have exactly 5 characters in D3, 1 for each class because I never had any reason to make another. Is that more convenient? Yeah sure. But the entire concept of having builds is made obsolete. It's probably pointless to try and explain that to you as you only seem to care about convenience and everything being easy but i'd say especially the older player generation, those who nerded D1 and D2 like crazy has a major gripe with this, at least I have. Planning a build in POB, testing it in practice and then perfecting it in the process is one of the best part's of this game and it's mostly meaningless in D3.

Did i say there shouldnt be consequences?
I dont think i did so i dont get your point.

I HATE THE ACTS BECAUSE THEY ARE BORING.
I dont give a *** if i had to level in fun new acts or had a little different experience in releveling OTHER CHARACTERS not the main character but ALTS like i said before.

I feel like many of you guys are sheeps. The system is like this and we follow this system until the end of time. if someone wants something different then we just tell them that consequences should be there and that he/she is lazy.

Many of you guys obviously did not get the point. I dont care about grinding if it feels fresh to do it over and over again.
For the same reasons you got new leagues right? Right? Do you guys get it now? Hahhaa those acts feel boring and repetitive to me and should have some new content aswell so the leveling experience is still fresh.

YOU DONT WANT THAT??? Fine then you keep doing what you do and i do the new acts. Some people are so ignorant when somebody has a different opinion. Not mature.

even if you skip few acts, youll get bored quick.



best way to cure burning out is to take a break. come back in a year or so. thats what i do.



what poeple here suggesting is what D3 is offering.
you guys thinkin you got valid point on this matter , but you don't.

you're simply bored and need a break. a long one.


say you start at maps , delve right away .
what will you get? the reward wont be good. it depletes overtime, especially in sc leagues.

you want to respec same character ? sure! but next build you make can reuse gears and gems . so you cut down on progression. now youll get bored of that build even quicker than the one before b/c you don't have that sence of progress.


the more and more you try to skip things you don't wanna do, gets you to the end even quicker . which results in more boredom.

You were right about the break.
I took many breaks already from this game which is normal for every game. Sometimes you need a break from it to like it again.

I still think i got a point.
You say i dont have a point but thats your opinion, not facts.
You say i would be bored if i would get a level 70. Thats another assumption.
The guys who disslike my idea have 1: No idea what alt characters are appearently see the name of the title: Leveling ALT characters Boring+Burnout.

You guys make assumptions i want zero leveling which wasnt even the main point. Since you make assumptions i just gonna make it clear to you.
I played POE more then 2000 hours. In this time i cant even count how many times i had to do those acts over and over again.
You guys think it is meaningfull but i think it is just filler content. When you get to maps i get the feeling of FINALLY now the fun finally starts. That is really what acts now only does for me. It gives me a bad feeling and a wasted time feeling.

There are waaayyy to many acts aswell and the story/presentation of the story in my opinion is mediocre. Even if the story/presentation was interesting enough for me i would be bored after playing it for 2000 hours.

So my idea for Second characters so not the first one you make.
Let them play half of the acts instead of 10 or give a level 50/60 character and let them level in different ways or some special acts for alt characters. So the content feels fresh.

It would be even better if GGG decided to swap out some Acts after a few years and introduce a new SEMI story so the leveling experience keeps feeling interesting for everyone as an OPTIONAL CHOICE if people like you want to keep doing those OLD FILLER CONTENT hahaha. You happy, me happy.

Exactly, it is just filler content nowadays. I understand why they started the game like this but for me it would be better if they invent some new things in the leveling system.

People keep telling me that iam lazy and make assumptions i want free characters while i never said that xD lol.
I just hate the content.
Mememe then dont play the game... yeah but thats the problem i like a lot of leagues and what i like most is Puzzeling around with characters and combinations. Thats one of those things for me were POE really shines.

I want to tinker around with new classes and combination without having to throw away another 8 hours minimum just for doing those long boring acts again.

let me ask you this people who make these assumptions of me being lazy:
Why is everyone YES EVERYONE on twitch running trough the Acts SKIPPING almost everything in there?

I think because it is boring. But hey, i must be that lazy guy who wants level 100 characters with all the items right.. Pepelaugh.

And NO iam not talking about racing. I think racing is great and i love that it has a place btw (before you make those assumptions lol).
