You Removed the Main Reason People Play ARPGs For. And it's a shame.

Wait, you're literally quoting a post where I gave an example of how I played the last league on Cyclone, with a full bar of active abilities. What's your deal, man? Am I still not "dedicated" enough for a guy who's never made a character above level 96 in his life? What a tragedy.
Once again, just for you, with a picture and a bonus:

I completely disagree. I love the rare drops. Makes it very hype when you finally get something good, or motivates you to trade with friends.

Rings are not rare by any measure.

You could say the same thing about PoE 1. Travel skill, mouse 2, travel skill, mouse 2, travel skill, mouse 2. Or Quicksilver flasks, whatever your choice. This is like 99% of your gameplay choices every league.

I mean PoE 1 is vastly more repetitive than PoE 2 is, even with people mocking dodge rolling. Just by nature of how the combat works. Couple that with most attacks are very similar in nature. You have your circles. You have your Cones, you have your various multiple projectiles, etc. Very little combos; you just spam your 1 skill and a movement ability of choice, and pretend to be a catfish scouring the bottom of the lake for currency.

I honestly only play PoE 1 to relax and play the economy/build wealth. It has by far the worst minute to minute gameplay of any of the Arpgs.

PoE 1 is the epitome of identical and repetitive.

Isnt it funny that this complain always come from cyclone, rf or summoner players? Their gameplay is just running from A to B. Idle game with extra steps. Imagine thinking holding 1 button is superior gameplay.

I guess there's a silver lining - since the campaign in poe2 is so much harder, maybe the complainers stop complaining about act1 being hard in poe1 :D

But what made up for its lack of cool graphics or gameplay was the LOOT AND CRAFTING system.
