POE2 feels like you guys took all the complaints of POE1 and turned those into the core concepts
" And keep in mind we only had 2 POE1 leagues for 2024 For a D4 ruthless clone Last edited by Bloomania#2606 on Dec 9, 2024, 11:37:40 PM

" I did try ruthless for a few levels when it first came out, before fleeing, and it felt very similar to my experience leveling up a character to act two in POE 2. No loot and tough mobs. Quoting Saltychipmunk:
...I look at the new act 5 boss where you have to hide behind the statues to survive the bullet hell and all I can think is... how the fuck are zombies going to survive that? They don't know what hiding is... they don't know what dodging is... they are morons. |

" Ruthless was literally them removing movement skills, gem vendors, and low loot POE2 has no gem vendor, low loot and the only movement skill that doesn't have a cooldown that all players have is a tiny dodge roll.... melee still has leap slam but its giga slow People will argue with what I said in my original feedback post even though its not an opinion Then they hide their profile so you can't see their highest lvl is 80 and they have no experience at all in POE1 Last edited by Bloomania#2606 on Dec 9, 2024, 11:52:34 PM

As someone who actually tried Ruthless ( in Settlers though), ruthless was more enjoyable to me then PoE 2.
More build diversity, the skill tree has meaning and Ascendancies are still great. Last edited by Etvein#1213 on Dec 10, 2024, 12:09:58 AM

Thread title is exactly how I feel about the game, it's like they took all the bad things about POE1 and all the bad things from Dark Souls/Elden Ring with none of the good things and called it their vision for the future of ARPGs. In a way, I'm glad that POE2 released, now I have some dead time in between now and next POE1 or D4 league to try other games.

Yea, PoE 1 was basically them being forced to keep league content long term that they didn't like, which turned into a fun game.
PoE 2 is them hitting the reset button because they thought that the game people were enjoying, wasn't good. |

If you would have told me this was going to basically be a ruthless version I would not have given you so much money for a game that is not really fun. I have given you more money for this game then any other company in my entire gaming history. This game has given far more anger then fun and that is not what I gave you all that money for. I do not feel like we have skill freedom like we had in Poe 1 and it actually feels more restricted. I agree alot with what others have said about no loot, severely slowed down, having to kite almost every npc because the spells are so weak. I spend more time backing up then going forward. At the end of the day all you have done is make me not ever want to spend that much money on one of your games ever again.

" 100% They've messed up most of the underlying core philosophies of this game, but at least they didn't remove PoE1 like Blizzard removed Overwatch 1. And you're 100% spot-on with those issues you pointed out. |
