7 deaths on t1 in row and it would not be a problem if the game was fun.
But it's not.
Will wait when they rework 70% of the game.
Obviously it will happen.

You forgot to bring some. Retelling us some opinion in very broad sentences does not present an argument.

Kripp did world first and only prepatch D3 Hardcore inferno Diablo kill.
But I'm sure you are much, much better.

"getting good"
Yeah. I'm sure you are a great gamer.

You suck at arguments though.

Miyazaki was a gem. Hope Jonathan is the same tier of legend.

After playing through POE2, I can see Jonathan's vision clearly now. I'm certain it's Miyazaki tier. Maybe more, it's an innovation of/on what Miyazaki showed us. I wish more people could appreciate what this game actually is more deeply. This is something unlike we've ever seen before. All the best of an ARPG, all the best of a Souls-like, stunning artwork, unique and compelling story, engaging complexity requiring creative problem solving... I could go on, but I hope Jonathan dares to realize it fully rather than shackle himself to the unappreciative looking for a replica of POE1 or D4.

As a Turkish player I constantly watching Turkish streamer named "MaximarTV" and you guys can check if you like and he does 40/40 challanges on normal and 8/8 challanges on ruthless every league and he stated while playing PoE2 drop rate is worse than ruthless. So if kripp says "PoE2 is ruthless" this would be second time hearing same thing for me.

The arguments are well presented in the original post, and refer to an in depth review:

I think you know what the point was, no reason to play dumb. What is the point of just going into a forum post and contribute nothing but gaslighting?
He is referring to a review, and you know that was what was being discussed.

You presumed it was a bad one without checking and decided to voice that.
I'm sure GGG gets so much out of that conversation.

Either GGG can keep it as is more or less, and lose 95% of its player base within 3-4 weeks, or they can engage with the actual majority of players.
They'll have all the data of course.

That's EXACTLY what the D4 trolls have been saying all along. Guess what. That game is dead now because no one liked the brainless combat and trivial encounters. Maybe you're the 5%.

No, the only thing I "presumed" is that I wouldn't absolutely trust Kripp's taste in games. He's great at doing math applied to games, he's not great at evaluating how good games are, if they are "too" difficult or not, and other similar tangents. His tastes in games are utterly narrow and specific.

I'm surprised at your guys reaction. Not only exceptionally toxic, but nearly no people played ruthless, i'm sure nobody here was a ruthless enjoyer. I've genuinely never seen a single person say they liked ruthless but that's just me. I have seen a lot of forum warriors claim to LOVE ruthless of course :)



1 -- I never said i'm having problems... (yet, T4) As of now I'm enjoying the challenge, but most of my friends aren't, as usual.


2 -- Kripp is a nerd who plays the game professionally basically. This is the person you should listen to, it's why GGG listens to streamers.


3 -- I am ripping to stuttering, the 'pause' feature is a godsend.. But that still happens.


4 -- and the punishment for death feels excessive. I don't rip often but it's just not my cup of tea even if I never ripped. It's just not particularly fun or engaging to me, it's just shitty (But i'm glad you guys enjoy it)



So far I have no problem (so far) but I and you, seem like the minority. Many people are gonna hit a wall around T4 when they can't build/get defenses, and they just aren't good.

Most of my POE 1 friends have quit over the years because they couldn't git gud. Many will feel the same way.

People are ripping on me for saying it's not that hard, but i'm one of the exceptions like you guys apparently -- I'm having an incredibly easy time because of the controller. I have messed up hands, and it's easier than keyboard and mouse for me. Like i'd have an easier time in POE 1 with a controller setup like this, and i'd be capable of playing builds I currently cannot in POE 1 because of these hand issues. Be assured, I am a POE 2 enjoyer.

Because PoE1 ruthless does NOT equal PoE2.
Not much takers for the former, plenty of enjoyers for the latter.

Simple as.
