Before you nerf based on crying feedback....

Be wary of nerfing it into an expected progression sequence that becomes a snooze fest because the nerfs you make to tier 1 maps and the gear upgrades you get along the way basically make the entire progress system moot and zero challenge where you sleep walk through it.

There should be an element of near-death experiences that keep it interesting so you aren't asleep at the wheel, and yes, that means frustration if you don't change up what you are doing or how you are playing.

Yes, the difference between Campaign in to Maps is steep, and if you remember your first time playing PoE1 which many of you probably cannot remember, it was the same.

For some of you complaining, you are simply too used to knowing whats needed to be done to make the incoming content zero challenge from the thousands of hours you spent on PoE1. I expect builds and gear to offset this transition over time, but until people learn that, there will be people whining, too hard.

Its week 1, you shouldn't be in tier 10+ maps by now just because you spent 4000+ hours in PoE1.

Lets give it a month or so shall before dirt napping it?

You do realise people who spent 4000+hrs in PoE1 are already in t14+? Challenge is not problem in game I personally love it.

It is nice change of pace. Problem is constant challenge,unfair mechanics(off screen on death mechanics that are not clearly visable). Problem is low reward for big punishment. Problem is they took most tedious content of PoE1(sanctum and ultimatum) and made it manadtory.
You know there is no chance that there will not be a zerg build in game(already there are few)? So you know what you do with this type of punishing progress? You rob people of experimentation with builds and just let them copy paste streamer builds.
And you think this is good for game? Yes I have over 100hrs since launch and know abit what I am talking about. I am not looking for reduction in challenge I am looking for fairness and balance between reward and punishemnt cause atm there is big drawn on punishment side.

Not to talk more about crafting which they said before launch "we encourage ppl to craft". Craft what? Slam exalts and hope for best? That is not crafting that is gambling. And before you say anything I know there are omens that help with some "deterministic" crafting but you know what percentage of playerbase at this state game is in now will experience it? Hint:not high. They need to rethink their approach to game in next weeks and see if they want to keep players coming back to their game or stay same with gatekeepers and us(yes I am one of those) addicts that just love being punished.

It's not about the difficulty or the nerfs - the issue is much simpler than that. The problem is that it’s simply not fun, it’s exhausting and frustrating instead. Core-Systems of the game are poorly designed and feel really bad.
