PoE gem system is the most genius skill system in videogame history, period. Its been flawless and no one ever said these insane things you are saying, until suddenly after PoE2 launch. Even though this games gem system is really garbage compared to PoE's and we all know it.
No system is flawless. And when it come to build diversity, in poe1 you build around what slots you get on gear, and it's pretty lame in my opinion. That make game progression/crafting way harder than it should be.
Perhaps YOU prefer poe1 system, it's your right, but I'm sure I'm not alone to prefer poe2. And if everybody followed poe2 gameplay videos, they know what they bought. Poe2 is not here to replace poe1, if people don't stand poe2 system, why not keep playing the first game?
I think lot of people were waiting for poe2 because there was the promise to fix what we didn't liked in the first game, and outside some balancing issues, I enjoy this game far more than poe1.
Well maybe you have noticed from the massive pushback this game has received, but there are far more people who prefer PoE's mechanics than these new ideas.
"And if everybody followed poe2 gameplay videos, they know what they bought."
Well thats just flat out false. They blatantly lied to us in demo footage. Said things like
- "all the orbs will be much more common so that you can craft a lot more" (they were actually far rarer than in PoE)
- "the combat is more deliberate and tactical" (in reality the enemies are PoE enemy speed in endgame and the player 1-shots them with any decent build)`.
- gold will not be used with vendors once you reach endgame (you buy everything from vendors with gold and you get gold for vendoring, essentially this game has completely replaced the orb economy with boring gold, instead of gold just complementing the game like in PoE). Literally PoE implemented even gold better than PoE2, the game where they first came up with the idea to put gold in...
They lied to us about many things in order to trick us into buying a game they knew was FAR worse than PoE. They knew if they admitted how badly their ideas for this game have failed, people would not buy a key.
"I enjoy this game far more than poe1"
How would you know, based on your profile you have barely played PoE at all, maybe one time.

Anyone notice how every single PoE2 glazer just lies? Its the only way to defend this game. Truth is never on their side.

Nothing about PoE's gem system is "broken" and it does work exactly as intended.
"You could delete all the support gems and replace it with just more damage scaling on levels on skill gems and you would lose like 5% functionality that we actually get from them." Unhinged nonsense, countless gems that every build uses provide utility that alter how skills work.
For example there are many support gems that affect how projectiles function.
PoE1 gem system is literally completely meaningless mate. The only thing it adds to the game is a vector of progression by giving you 30% more damage when you finally six link.
"Wow I put more melee phys damage in my skill very exciting. Wow brutality? 30% more damage?? Heck yeah. Multistrike? More damage sweet otherwise changes nothing except being able to walk out of AoEs easier. Amazing lets slot in Ruthless for another +30% damage"

"Combine skill gems"
And
"Create your unique build"
Pretty hard to argue that this limit is in line with path of exiles core design.
and? You can still do it in poe2. What is the difference between the trailer you linked and poe2 ? 11+ years of experiences.

You have never played PoE and have zero clue about the game. Anyone who plays it actually knows you are full of shit, so you can't gaslight us.

The support gem limit.
And being able to create "your" unique build

No you simply don't understand the system at all.

Cope. Theres like 20 builds total possible in this game, and it won't increase by much by adding the rest of the weapon types and classes. Not compared to PoE's limitless freedom.

You can't gaslight us. We actually play PoE and understand perfectly well how much better its gem system is than this restrictive dogshit in PoE2. Anyone who has played both games knows there are literally tens of thousands of possible builds in PoE, and a couple dozen maybe in PoE2.

I have certainly more poe1 game hours than you in poe2. I played poe1 when it was in EA, like poe2. And I don't have that many hours in poe1, because in the end I don't like how it turned out. Poe2 is what I thought poe1 would be.
If poe1 is so perfect.... continue to play it!!!!! GGG don't drop it's support lol. GGG has no reason to maintain 2 similar games that would split community. They want something new with poe2. Doesn't matter how many poe1 hours we have. Poe2 isn't poe 1.5. And it's fine if you don't like poe2, isn't the end of the world for anybody.

GGG however will drop its support for PoE2 once all the PoE players leave and never come back, because this much worse game simply does not have the systems to support an always returning playerbase, every 3 months every year for at least a decade.
Which is why GGG won't listen to people like you if they have any sense, they will listen to their core playerbase who made them rich, us PoE players.
"I have certainly more poe1 game hours than you in poe2."
Also doubt that. Again, your profile indicates you didn't really play PoE at all. I have lot of hours in PoE2 already and that is why I can say with total ease that the game is vastly inferior, unless it becomes a lot more like PoE.
