How many of you would QUIT Early Access POE 2 if they Wiped the Server and Reset Everything?

Just curious. And why?

No need, the exploit on exalts already hit the economy hard but its early access, who cares.

Better to find out what player behaviors/exploits slipped by now rather than in a league.
Step 1 is to self reflect.
I would start over.

This game kicks ass.

what exploit?
You dont need reset,some people already leave. LOL .Im also almost "burn out".

Lets say they reset it. Reasons why i will not start again EA - cause "i dont like it.its shit"(Famous Necro streamer sound allert)

Sure,i got some enjoy during the campaign run , it was fun and interesting at the beggining.

Issue 1 - I like craft gear for myself in poe1.I usually buy consumbles(logbooks, essences, fossils etc.) and craft what ever i need. Can i do so in poe 2 with same variety and level of enjoyment? No,i cant. For example we dont have minion rings and if i remove 2 my rings on minion build - i dont loose anything critical cause my res is cupped,i dont need life and other modifiers on rings are usless for me(im talking about rare rings,not Ventors). More over i cannot craft something for my minions because we also doesnt have anything which gives us "minion tag". A lot of crafting currency like omens are rare or expensive and typical craft "transmute > aug > regal->ex->ex->ex-> to vendor" is pure casino. Like craft is waaaaay behind then it was in poe 1 even if you use basic currency. I absolutly like craft in poe1 for variety of ways and cause it the way how i play the game -> gearing myself - like part of rpg - making my character stronger for harder content.

Second - i dont like 1 portal mechanic at all. You spending time on towers to buff your maps,then you see a map with multiple encounters - you farm a way to open it. You prepare quite safe(so you think) map with good modifiers to get loot and multiple encounters there and guess what? Random lag spike and you dead or invisible ground effect because your own skills block it. Game is not balanced around 1 portal. This is also killing party play fun. Create league for casuals like me.

3) I like "link system" and i dont like gem system at all.Limit on 1 support gem when we have so LOW quanity and quality of them - is stupid. I have 2 characters. One is crit frost sorc which running out of gems in 3 link setup(FB+ica nova for clear,bomb+ice wall for bossing,elemental storm ascendancy,1 cof setup,1 coc setup) - im running out of valuable support gems. I cannot use controlle destruction(since im crit build).I cannot use Elemental focus( freeze is 1 of my defensive layers) - all other already used. I even start using support gems which doesnt work in my build "for fun". Its kinda stupid. Crit support gems are shit compare to poe1. Unleash have less seals and dont have mastery for more seals. Spell echo is completely another gem. Etc.
4) Minions right now - they are strong(arsonist) .Frost mages with high investment good too - but others are sucks. Minions body blocking each other. If you running without MS boots - their base speed isnt enough to follow you,they are dying if run away from them and when you meet enemy- they are on respawn time.You dont have convocation. More over 0 interesting minions. WHere is our Big Lich like in Last Epoch? Or Absolution like in poe1? Golems are not exist etc.
5) My favorite skills are not existing or nerfed.(Arc,Blade vortex, Vortex, Absolution, Ice spear, brands, Divine ire etc)
6) Not added my favorite content. Delve,Blight,Legion,Abyss.
7) Endgame is empty. I dont like mechanic of random spawn of Citadel. Endgame mechanic is the reason why i play poe 1. If i dont like Delirium - i can block it and never see this mechanic on my maps. If i wanna run abyss - i can run every map with abyss. Like killing Pinacle boss with 1 portal is sucks if you are newbie in this game with current RNG system of citadel spawn.
8) trade is still sucks.
9) the old problems come to us. For example not each currnecy drops from monster in stacks. why? Community of poe 1 was crying about that and it was good QoL solution - here expediton currency drops in stacks,but transmute/aug/ex orbs from rare monster doesnt - ?!
11) If you need something in poe1 like SSF player - you have target farming options. Do you need 6 link? Okey - farm div.cards for 6 link or farm div.cards for fusings and do a 6 link etc. If you need some bases - farm special maps where they can be dropped(like steel rings,opal rings etc)
12) Crafting bench>Runes. Harvest bench with resist change - QoL which save your time.
13) Passive tree balance(HP/ES/other nodes - downgrade)

So overall it have good graphic but the quanity and quality of mechanics - huge downgrade. I think i will leave this EA in couple days when test few things and im envy that a lot of people feel happiness about EA.

I wish i could play in a new league like it has to be, instead of EA. GGG said that "poe 1 will not suffer because of poe2" - and they fcked up.
P.s. This is not EA which typically do game devs. Like usually EA means that game is almost ready and you have access to full game or almost full game,buta bit early, so you have adventage to ppl which doesnt buy it. Here is not ready 50% and 45% which alrady done is not enjoyable for me,have bugs,bad balance etc. Its pure ALPHA TEST. Its not EA
P.P.s GGG can pay to good visual designers ,but cannot pay to ppl which create unique items. 85% of them are shit. Thouse unique which was fine in poe 1 -are shit here like Kaom body armor.Its incredible level of incompetence

I'm with this guy.

The game in its current condition just blows chunks. I am not 'highly skilled', have neither the time nor dedication to 'git guud'. I just want to play the game and actually enjoy it.

They've pretty much said that is NOT ALLOWED.

So I'll probably just uninstall and come back next december to see if they've put a little fun into the game.
Patch Notes 3.15:
Fixed a bug where players believed the game was playable. This has been corrected and made retroactive.
Patch Notes 3.19:
Fixed a bug where players adapted to 3.15. This bug cannot be corrected, so we have implemented a 90% reduction in item access as a punishment.
