The game engine is absolute garbage

From the moment you decided to start "improving" it a few leagues ago, every single release has been a devolution of the product.

Each and every new map I open, the very first few packs of mobs and both abilities they and I use, are just not rendered at all. I literally just died to a f**king invisible pack of conqueror mobs that spawned out of thin air, which rendered in 2 seconds after I died.

This is unacceptable and more frustrating than any nerfs you decide to throw in the future.

There, that's my feedback for this league.

Wrong.

No other engine would be able to cope with the amount of stuff PoE throws about, the fact that you state this opinion like fact means that you are totally ignorant of everything other engines have to sacrifice to even come close to a fraction of what PoE dose.

Wrong.

I have been playing the game since 2013 and I know how the game engine handled stuff compared to what's going on today. Before Delirium, I could run the game flawlessly, and that was with worse hardware than I have today.

And yes, it IS a fact if it is what I am experiencing, and I bet I am not the only one.

No u.

GGG's own game engine has handled this better in the past, and I think it's a bit of a leap to claim no other engine can do it better than their spaghetti code. One of PoE2's stated goals is to do this better as well isn't it? Even they recognize there are problems.

The thing that makes you facepalm is they keep leaning so hard into the type of content that their engine is struggling with and making things worse at times trying to bandaid a fix for it.

sounds like you picked bad hardware to upgrade into :P

Oh wow you figured it out, everyone has just been accidentally downgrading their PCs. How you get so smart?

Works fine on my PC's. One is a beast, the other is pretty average.

yep works perfectly fine on my comp too. Whenever someone says "everyone", it is generally a clear indicator that its a "you" problem and nothing else :)

On a more "supportive" note, I find that when I am running the game via HDMI connection to an external monitor, it tends to run way worse.

Oh ffs I knew someone would be in to take "everyone" literally and out of context. Clearly I mean the people that do not have "perfectly fine" performance.

What are you adding here? Is your assumption that since it works fine for you everyone that says otherwise is doing something wrong? You realize that's not how software interaction with a wide range of hardware configurations works right?

I'm glad you are so intelligent and lead such a blessed life that you aren't having any issues. Good for you.

who are you to speak for "everyone" with crap performance? There are tons of things that could go into performance issues. I highlighted one of them myself (HDMI connection)...

I take the word in exactly the context you provided. If you don't like it, perhaps you should proofread and choose your language more carefully to say what you mean.

What I am "adding" is that there is no fundamental issue with the game engine, as it works perfectly fine on other machines. 50% of the people who commented on this thread alone report no problems.

[Removed by Support] But I'll leave it with one final thought: the OP title is "Game Engine is absolute garbage". This isn't about individuals having performance issues for any other reason other than a critique of the Game Engine. As such, my response and other's responses point out that the Game Engine is perfectly fine, and the issue is elsewhere.
