One Death = Game Over: A Frustrating Design Choice
|
This will make me stop playing this game. It's the second time I've died in a Tier 4 map and couldn't collect the currency (2Div). This makes no sense. One death = Game Over.
If GGG wants to make the system "one death = Game Over", then they need to change a few things: 1) Auto-loot currency. 2) Remove all monsters from the map after we die and let us revive to collect all the loot. 3) Allow us to play the map like in PoE 1. If there are no more portals, then it’s Game Over. Dying in a map and not being able to pick up my loot is even more frustrating than failing trials due to no Honor, even with full HP. -.- I really love PoE2, and I really appreciate the challenging playstyle that forces us to go slow. But we need the currency to equip our character and make it stronger. We spend materials to craft maps, and then die without a chance to pick up our loot, it's really frustrating. Please, change this! Yeah... I’m 100% sure that, later in the game, this will make me quit. Sadly. Last bumped on Dec 24, 2024, 7:37:51 PM

Yeah - I have to agree but I'm having a slightly different frustration. I am running out of waystones/maps. One death and no more portals is absolutely stupid. I can very literally run out of content because of lack of waystones. Like I get it, get good or whatever, I'm not the best at the game but to get better gear/drops/currency, something has to give or else I just need to stop playing for my mental health.

Well, my wish for 2025 to you is this: every single time you drop something really good, like a Mirror of Kalandra or something else valuable, I really hope something happens that prevents you from picking it up. Then maybe you'll understand. ^^ Merry Christmas to you, mate!

1 death isnt game over, unless your playing hardcore, stop being overdramatic.
Your being punished for making mistakes, its gameplay working as intended. If its a problem that your constantly dying then you have to do lower tier contrnt until you either get better gear or get better at the game. Stop trying to make them make the game easier for you. | |

I put a thread with a suggestion here about one death per ma https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3662567, see if you like or have other ideas :)

" Sorry but this isnt a very good sugestion. I think your missing the problem. The tldr of your post is that we should have more portals as a base, but we can juice our maps but at the cost of losing portals. But this wouldnt fix the problem. The problem is that people are playing higher tier/higher juiced maps then they csn handle and then they complain about dying. They alredy have the option to put in a easier waypoint and die less, but they dont. Because instead of getting better to match the game they want to cry until devs sink the game down to their level. If they implemented your system then the same crybabies would just select 0 portals for more juice, die, then cry about some poor made excuse | |

The problem isn't about dying. The problem is the loot! We can't pick up the loot when we die. Even in Tier 1, with a level 100 character ready for T16, you can have bad luck and die. And because of that, we lose our loot? No, that's not fair!

Like I said before:
1) Auto-loot currency (ONLY) 2) Remove all monsters from the map after we die and let us revive to collect all the loot. This will work 100% fine. Then I’d be happy with "One death = Game Over" (Map closed). |

" Since dying is what prevents you from picking up your loot then dying is actually infact your problem. Or seen from a larger scale skill issue is your real problem. Please just do lower tier maps and focus on getting better. Instead of making whiny crying posts here about how you want them to make the game easier for you. If you dont like it then its not a game for you |
