Nope. Read above. I'm fine with PoE2. But soon you will realise how delusional you are. You will never reach maps. It's not in you. It's nothing like D3 or ER.

The thing I unironically hate the most about PoE2 are you newbies. You are so clueless, wandering around here like children and spewing toxicity at the vets who PAID for the game you're now playing. You are WORTHLESS. LEECHES.

YOU didn't PAY FOR POE2. You paid for POE1, you got what you paid for. What GGG did with THEIR money was up to them, not you.

You are an entitled little child, grow up.

I engage by giving them no more of my money. You "I want it this way" people will be gone after the first league reset of your precious deadeye. Then GGG will realize how the screwed their core supporters..

Yet another worthless leech with an empty poe1 account and a wall of text about veterans.

Every time somebody repeats this "you haven't spent enough money or time" crap I judge them for missing half of the forum titles/icons. I spent way more money on this before most of ya'll even started playing, and I feel entitled to the return of a hack-and-slash POE game that got transformed to appeal to all the D3 zoomers that got bored of that game.

I already have mindless zoom-zoom POE1 to play when I want to watch a show or gaming tournament, and I don't need a sequel to a live service game that hasn't gone anywhere. There is no need to replace it with an identical game with shinier graphics and less content. They can update its graphics and add new skills and supports over time like they have been, and let myself and others in the mood for actual combat and friction and character building that isn't just "moar damage" or "what other ways can I shit out infinite explosions" enjoy a new experience which has no equivalent on the marketplace.

POE2 has some rough edges and needs more content, but it sure as hell doesn't need to be POE1-again.

Many of us paid a LOT for POE 2. And its ironic you calling those who did "entitled". Using dad's credit card doesnt count as paying for it yourself you know.

As someone with over twelve thousand hours in poe1 who loves the increased difficulty in poe2, these low skill gamers do not speak for me or any of the other poe players I know. They're just loud and in the forums, because they're not spending their time actually playing.

Almost all of the people who were actually good at path one love path two. But these are the people who make builds, the people who figure out the league mechanics, the people who want harder content and a higher death penalty.

99% of the rage coming from old path players is coming from people who never made a build and can't play the game without copying a guide. It's the same exact names as you always saw asking for no death penalty or an instant buy auction house or a campaign skip. I wouldn't worry too much about it OP, GGG has been tuning them out for years because they know more than anyone, it's just an extremely loud, angry minority of players refusing to get good.

As someone with over thirty thousand hours in poe1 i'll just say that we are all in one boat and this side vs side thing has never produced anything positive in a decade of discussion in this forum.

Frustrated me so much at one point i wrote a short story about the conflicts in this community to de-stress some years ago.

Great, please share with us the invoices you received for the payments you made. Since you paid for POE2 I'm sure you have some documentation showing your money given to GGG specifically for the purpose of POE2 and nothing else.

Or, perhaps, did you buy some supporter packs for POE1? You got some MTX for POE1, and some points for POE1 to buy more stuff for POE1?

You didn't pay for POE2, you paid for MTX in POE1 and that is what you got. What GGG did with the money afterwards was their business, it wasn't your money anymore.

There is such irony in all this and the state of POE 2, from what I am seeing it already looks like POE 1, the way people are smashing end game already, the only difference is they have to walk around slower.

In as much as GGG have tried to make it a different game it still seems to resemble and feel like POE 1 quite a lot, because once you get gear and work things out there isn't that huge of a difference other than some trickier and longer boss fights.

I have been enjoying it myself and the learning curve, but the restrictions on movement are just tedious and a mistake IMO. Using movement and a movement skill is actually a big part of ones skill and survivability in an arpg, it is a big part of the action in arpg and makes games like this feel more fluid and enjoyable. If ggg want more difficult and interesting boss fights then do so in a way which still allows the player to use quick movement, make the bosses quicker.

Some of my best memories of POE 1 are highly paced boss fights with turbo'd double piety, Vaal Oversoul, Dominus pre Ascendency when map sustain was very difficult.

As it stands with such restriction on the fluidity of movement I do not see sustainability in this game for me, but I don't see why they can not have the best of both worlds? You want better bosses and skill based mechanics than ever, do so while making them faster as well, it just feels like you are walking around in mud half the time.

Meanwhile the no lifers and streamers have still blasted the game within a couple of weeks.

ofc this comes from an OP with no achievements and who has likely never played poe1 makes this irrelevant, if the game carrys on like this it will die and ev eryone will just go back to poe1 and this version will either change or nobody will play iut... well maybe the new ppl who seem to love it for somereason

Imagine thinking you have 'skill' playing a pve game.

PoE community is just too funny.
