Why does the "fanbase" of this game refuse to let other people have fun with it???

Well git gud dog and stop whining. Happy now ?

if you want poe1 go play poe1.
if you want Dark Soul go play Dark Soul.
If you want poe2 go play poe2.
If you want a hard game go play a hard game.
If you want an easy game go play an easy game.

If you don't like poe2 but somehow most people like it. Maybe not ruin our fun, and go play something you like.

Because this isnt a single player game like Skyrim

And neither is PoE1 a single player game, and that game has an option for playing on a harder difficulty called Ruthless.
....

OP broke his own argument more than once, you broke your own argument if you`re trying to get an easyer diff. if you`re using ruthless as an example, means you wanna get a harder diffuculty not an easyer.

so, the thing is, getting a even HARDER difficulty its fine, it wornt break market because you will go there to challange yourself even more, but easyer breaks the balance.

when people say "this game its not for you"its not because they wanna you to Foff, its because since you refuse to learn how to play the game, there is nothing that anyone can do to help you out to have fun in the game, imagine if they game the game "I wanna be the Guy" an easy dificulty, that would make the game not be itself anymore, because the game was balanced to be hard/punishing to make people die and then come back and overcome their past self that couldnt dodge the mechanic that killed them.

now if people dont wanna learn to dodge roll, craft, build stuff on the skilltree, yeah, this game its not for those people, poe1 solved that by having netbuilds that can carry you, they got guides on every boss, but that wasnt there on day 1 of Poe1 poe1 was also hard at the start, but people learned, build guides, got formulas for itemcrafting, all those stuff were not build in a week, grow up, snap into reality, this is early access, people are still figuring the game out, the devs still balancing it, nerfing/buffing builds, creating GODAMMIT 6 NEW CLASSES! give constructive feedback not BUILLSHIT "I wanna the game easyer because i SUCK!"
you know what would make the game easyer w/o actually making mobs hit less or have less hp pools? a passive skilltree Heatmap, more conecting nodes, so you can rach that diagonal area that you otherwise would need 10 points to get to.

because there is poe1 and d3-d4 for those who wants no brain zooming

Some people just got disillusioned because they couldn't beat the game on their first run. PoE, in EA, with limited skill options, and a bunch of glaring balancing issues... The funniest part is to see grown men like Hawg (never heard of him before but got recommended by YT) crying about it. "Aaaaaaa, I can't have fun, aaaa, I don't have reaction time, aaaaaa, give me my toy!!!!" Oh my Lord, it's a video game, maybe you should quit enjoying your daily portion of devil's lettuce and do something with your mental fortitude. Because if you can't learn at most 5 super well telegraphed attacks on a boss, it's not the "fanbase" problem it's a "you" problem.

Ironically, bosses are the easiest part of this game.

The problem is feeling week all the time because you didn't play broken builds, you didn't get lucky drops, you didn't get enough currencies and you didn't get good trade outcomes.

Very simple concept to understand for normal people, very hard for people who want to gatekeep just because they were luckier, played better/broken builds.

The mechanics part of bosses and evading them is literally the easiest thing to overcome. The midgame is what slows down everything if you were not blessed enough with the items.

Does feel like the bosses are at direct odds with the rest of the game. Since normal trash mobs are very much still PoE1 like.

I played poe from Harvest and today is my last day. Ive done. I want play hack and slash/arpg, no goddamn bugged souls. 10% of players like this type of gaming and yes - ggg stays with them. Its literally the most stupid approach.
Yes, Diablo 4 is atm better game than poe 2. Good Job GGG, one of the worst arpg's in the world is better than poe 2. And you made poe 1 - the best arpg in the world. Thats all from me.

I agree, I just want to be able to walk around my maps like I do on poe1 and not need to tense up the entire map for fear of dying and losing the map and my rewards! The essence of Path of Exile has always been this... Make the map as difficult as possible to get the best rewards but you will have 6 portals to do so!
I think the game needs improvements and that's what EA is for, but GGG please don't leave the "ESSENCE" of Path of exile out of POE2!

Because you do not want them to have fun with the game! You guys keep askign the game to be more like POE1 and we flocked to poe2 EXACTLY because of the things you guys are disliking! Try to have some EMPHATY.. udnerstand that other pulics ALSO have the right for their own fun!

We are asking for a fucking difficulty option, not a carbon copy of PoE1.

If we get a difficulty option plz dumb the loot down that exact %.

I support this LOL

I kinda get you, but by the same logic why should be PoE 1 players left in the dust for someone who never supported the company before? Most of the vets were here since the beginning more than 12 years ago, the money that made GGG what it is today came from them, the exposure GGG got was thanks to them, why should we get a dumbed down version of our beloved arpg? Yes dumbed down, the problem is not the dificulty, the game is not hard and you guys keep pulling that shit, the game was frustrating the first days because if you didnt have mega luck you could be stuck with the trashiest gear and have 10X the trouble doing content and no way to get out of that hole, they fixed it now by putting the loot in a better spot, the problem is the game is still a massive dumbed down version of PoE 1 made for the dumb crowd, i know they will give it more depth when they start adding content, but some of the core systems that they changed will basically stay that way, a dumbed down version.

And before people starts telling me how PoE 1 is still available ill tell something:

1 - We asked for a modern (graphical fidelity, animations etc) update for PoE 1 for a long time, why should we get the end of the stick?

2 - If anyone thinks PoE 1 will still get the same support as before they are delusional, they already said no more new 3 month leagues, it will be 1 new then 1 old, and that´s just the start, in no time PoE 1 will be left in the dust.

3 - They will make sure PoE 1 doesnt compete with the new game to try and make the investment worth.

100% poe1 development has been impacted for years with many broken promises as a direct result of poe2 being developed and theres no real guarantee poe1 stays getting developed. it's fully within poe1 players rights to want poe2 to be closer to poe1
