Early Access Feedback - A worst endgame experience than Diablo 4 - Forum

" Discreet_963#0873 wrote: I can't believe how bad the endgame is compared to the campaign. It is so bad in fact that I'd much rather reinstall Diablo 4 which I deleted thinking this was going to be THE ARPG. It's just not there yet and I'm sad to say I don't know if it will be. I Hope GGG cooks up this game as the master piece it should be but if this is the foundation ( a lot of bad game design ) I am left unsure about the replayability of it. Games shouldn't make me feel like ill end up wasting my time but this one is one of the very few where that is the case. I want to sink so much time into it but I know it will be more punishing than anything. I can only hope for the games success moving forward and play the campaign exclusively because the current direction of endgame is horrid. 1: This is a rushed early access endgame experience. they have 6 to 18 months to polish it. 2: How can this game have a worse endgame compared to a game that does not have an endgame at all??

Yep. They actualy did the imposible and made a worst endgame then diablo 4. Its basicly a messed up atlas from poe 1. But F'ed up. And it has nothing. No sence of progresion and no goals. Its nothing. A boring slop.	Posted by intersept#1235 on Dec 25, 2024, 6:24:19 AM Quote this Post

C'moooon... they had 5 years since PoE 2 started development to cook something better than what they released on EA. Plus 12 years of experience in PoE 1. If they need more half a year to make a decent game, it is just a slap on the face of the playerbase.

People can throw shade all they want on D4, but the game has their merit and is fun to play and chill. Replay the campaign isn't mandatory, Paragon points and extra perks unlocked are account shared - so alt friendly, respec is almost free - build experimenting is possible, helltide, infernal hordes, nightmare dungeons, citadel, undercity, whispers, artificer's pit... D4 is packed with endgame activities to mess around. PoE 2 has... punishments, so great!

Seeing you spam about how you hate the game, I would guess it's something wrong with you. Go do something more productive and stop getting frustrated over it.

Not only endgame, but the "crafting" system is also a joke in PoE 2 atm and many other games have more in-depth and involved crafting systems that actually give the player agency and choice and deterministic outcomes. The devs just unlearned a lot of the stuff they should have already known from their experience with PoE 1 for some reason.	Posted by Toforto#2372 on Dec 25, 2024, 10:01:27 AM Quote this Post

D4 has more endgame activies than poe2 at this point because all poe 2 has is maps (with 4 additional mechanics of ritual, breaches, expedition and delirium), trials and pinnacle bosses.
