Poe 2 feels so terrible. just sad...

Slugish movement, no phasing on dodge roll, dodge roll rubberbanding, getting ganged up and dies only to respawn and die the exact same way cause some of the small passage way areas. feels so absolute dog shit.



Very disappointed and depressing to see

100% right, [Removed by Support], i wish i didn't wasted 30€ on this crap.

They want to please the sweaty nerds to make the game super hard, then throw in some fucking option to chose difficulty in the campaign, easy, normal, hard, and sweaty nerd level.

Even the game itself feels so bad, takes so many hits to kill random white mobs, where is the great feeling we had on poe1 where you attacks felt really powerfull, all ive experienced so far is dying over and over to stupid boss with a millions health, takes 1 hours to understand the mechanics and defeat them, where is the fun in that ?

If end game boss are like that FINE, but struggling to level up and go past act 1 is not fun at all.

And i know we're not some isolated case, everyone is having the same complains, appart from the streamers who spend their life playing the game as a job, and the sweaty nerd that yell : get good, you just bad, the majority of players agree that this shit is not enjoyable.

Positioning, timing, understanding enemy and bosses. All too much for the audiences of today.

GGG, I hope you keep the current pace and difficulty. I love it. PoE1 wasn't for me, D3 and D4 wasn't for me. This is exactly how I imagined an ARPG to be. It is marvelous. Every time I die, I don't think "unfair" but rather "let me approach this differently and more carefully". I think about whether I should farm and optimize or not. The campaign should not be a walk in the park. The slow pace is amazing and makes encounters tough, rather than zooming around bombarding groups that die in 2 hits.

As the crowd did with D4 and PoE1('s endgame at least) whenever one wished back the difficulty and pacing of Diablo 2, here's the UNO reverse card: "If you want PoE1, go play PoE1."

no one ever equated a fun game to "positioning, timing, understanding enemy bosses".

The game is flat out a chore (boring).

It's a dumb down version of PoE1, with updated graphics.

It kept the bad parts, and removed the good sadly...

The people that say they enjoy the bosses, ask them how many times they're willing to fight them again lol... I can guarantee they're all one and done.

The end game atlas is a massive dumbdown worse version of maps in PoE1...

PoE2 got a lot of big problems...

Indeed. And that is players like you.

If you like PoE1. Go back to it. It is there. You can play it right now. And it is being updated alongside PoE2. For free! Still!

Amazing, isn't that?

PoE2 goes a different way, tries another approach, one that is actually challenging and not just a "take this build and you are broken" approach. Noone wants a second Diablo 4, where all you need to do is press 1 button and the screen dies.

You want that? I repeat. Go play PoE1. Leave PoE2 alone. If you haven't noticed. There's an audience for challenging games. Noone wants another excel spreadsheet simulator.

i dont really see the challenge in maps area. bosses ok but what goes through my mind is more this shit is so slow i really really hope i do it in one try otherwise omfg.

i wouldnt say the game is terrible like the title of this thread says, it just feels slow especially maps. i already stopped full clearing anything. doing the same combos to the same mobs for so long.

it s more like grandpa gaming. except for the dodges during bosses maybe.

and bosses arent that memorable to be honest. they re super beautiful though, no doubt about that. i love all the graphics. just the sand storm(not even boss zone) is incredible. the water is incredible
reminds me of the new beyond bosses compared to previous ones. beautiful but way slower and with "dodges". way less chaotic way less spammy way less fun.


and if your build isnt tuned perfectly, omfg, this starts to be unbearably slow. i wonder how much time i ll redo it. wanted to do all classes but will see.

You don't really need any of that in POE2.
For 90% of the encounters use this strategy:
1) Fire two attacks
2) Circle walk around the boss
3) Press spacebar
4) Repeat ad nauseum

It is not really difficult, but rather a boring slug

To me it feels like it is Diablo4-v2, it's just as dumbed down as D4. Calling this PoE2 difficult? see the other posts, i have the same as with D4 i fall asleep during this game, it's boring, just plain boring, not difficult, but boring, that's a huge difference.

So you are saying the game is too easy. You aren't dying enough. That's a difference.
