This game is an abusive P2W slot machine feeding off of peoples' addictions.

Your highest level character is 40 and you have 1 challenge completed.

Son, you have not 'thoroughly tested this game' at all.

At your level and experience you've barely started the tutorial phase of the game.

I don't generally like to call out other players but you know absolutely nothing about this game. And to be honest, you haven't even begun to give it a chance. With your experience, you are nowhere close to where the game shines.

I suggest you learn more about the game and it mechanics before you rage quit at L40. And then follow a simple build guide so you can start to experience what the game offers.


Well being such an experienced master of this game, please inform me. How am I expected to store all of my valuables in the default 4 stash tabs the game provides? How am I expected to not get killed near immediately in every encounter, due to the game refusing to drop anything better than the gear I acquired during act 2?

I've spent fifteen hours playing this game, and examined every presented aspect as much as humanly possible. There is no possible way for me to progress, aside from spending another 15 hours farming the act 3 catacombs for a possibility of a measly upgrade.

You sir, seem to be completely unaware of what you're saying.

ill be honest when i rush a10 on my first character i dont even open the stash, its waste of your time to be puting any garbage u find in there
CanHazName, if you're still reading this thread then I suggest three possible things you might want to try.

1. Go to the thread that is locked at the top of this forum, "We welcome First Impression posts! Please be nice to those posts." and make your post there. People are not allowed to attack you in that thread. Although I suggest you work on your post a little more because it is not really clear what your complaint actually is.

2. Follow a build guide and read the PoE wiki. Getting through the first 10 acts really is a simple breeze once you get any kind of handle on how the game works.(Hint: Frenzy is not really a very good primary skill to depend on and your supports gems to it are also not the best.)

3. Go find a different game to play.

Over 430 threads discussing labyrinth problems with over 1040 posters in support (thread # 1702621) Thank you all! GGG will implement a different method for ascension in PoE2. Retired!

This is the most helpful post of the thread.

@OP it sounds like you ran into the same difficulty that all, and I mean ALL, new PoE players run into. If you like the game, then many people here can help you if your tone isn’t hostile. You’ll be shocked at how much easier it gets with knowledge; I was when I went through the same thing with similar frustration. That was 7 years ago now.

If you don’t like the game, comment (constructively) in the first impressions thread then move on.
We're all in this leaky boat together, people.

After thoroughly testing this game I'm convinced absolutely none of you have any taste. It's literally a slot machine in every aspect, the enemies one shotting you, making any progress, whether or not you crash due to the absurd levels of vomit sitting in town.

Which is also another thing entirely, why should I need to spend half my paycheck to be able to play the game comfortably for an extra hour. I'd never even consider buying an armor set, stash tabs are completely mandatory to play this to any extent though. How the hell is it labeled a F2P?

Between being paygated and blown up repeatedly and I'm fairly confident this game is trash. How do any of you put up with this?


I was there 8 years ago...

Went through the same stuggles... My first character made it to level 72, but got one shotted at every corner.

This game needs a lot of reading and knowledge... Stash tabs are helpfull once you have decided to play it seriously and that's not before getting to maps consistantly...

The only valid point where RNG is really too heavy is on gambling for gear upgrades, because 99.99% of loots are trash...
Path of Exile is a Casino for gambling addicts.
Gambling is not fun nor a game mechanic...
yes.

but your biggest problem is playing 2h Raider with Frenzy as a main skill.

i guess it works around act 4, then you start dying unless you are a gaming god
d:-D*
This game was like star wars e4-6 and from then on it's only like e1-3 and e7-9.

Highest level 40....

And you tested what???

later :)
Not suprised this is still open, after all this forums are a feast for basic trolls in their caves..

I hope OP already found another game. There's no point arguing with people that can't remain neutral when it comes to a game these days. You can enjoy something sure but to the degree some people in this forums defend or give excuses for.. it's a bit worry some.

Oh and lvl 40? it's more than 90% of the "new players" experience since most don't past from act 1-2.

Good luck OP.
Don't be a poe stan. Use your fucking brain.
