Offically quitting POE 2

I've gave it my best shot, I have levelled 3 characters to lv 80+ and I'm really not enjoying it.

End Game

Mapping - you only get one try are a map, terrible mechanic. To get 2 atlas skill point I need to complete 10 maps of lv 1, then 10 maps of lv 2 and so on. Overall it boring. Map is way to big

Passive tree - offers little life, only way to sustain survivability is ES. Devs need to sit down and really think about a rework

Ascendency - Horrible! None of my characters have the 4th ascendency

Trade - Needs to have something done about it, not even going to go into this failure. Even trying to buy is ridiculous, no one answers

Gems - Only can use one support gem.... why? Need balancing, only certian gems are usable for solo campaign run

jeweller's orbs - Still haven't had a perfect orb drop.

I could go on but, that's me done, at least until GGG have fixed it.... I mean really fixed it

It's level 1+, so you don't have to keep doing lvl 1 maps if your build is strong. Just go directly to the level you are comfortable with.

From release until now steam charts showing about a 40% loss of players. They needed to hold off another year. I got to maps on day two and played until t5 maps and stopped playing. I started playing a little more now but over all it's just meh. Maps are to massive and the amount of back tracking is killing it for me. The one portal is meh. We don't have enough control to force a one portal map. I don't have a single friend from poe1 that is still playing and we play every league.

GGG said they would be doing a new league half way through so we could bounce back and fourth. Yeah that's not going to happen if they don't make some massive changes.

That is to be expected from EA titles.
Manor lords lost 90% of players in 2 months.
Pal World lost over 90% of players in 2 months.
Enshrouded lost about 80% of players in 2 months.

See you tomorrow!

Level 75 here, still leveling.

But kinda agree with the points from OP.

What I would definetly add:

- buff SSF drops. Like RLY RLY RLY.
- DELETE all jungle maps from the game, or at least from endgame. They have imbecil design. Copy pasta from POE1. Jesus they are stupid.
- add orb exchange system. (why I have 350+ augmenting, while no others ?)
- allow for better customization of endgame items. Like poe1 have specific Last suffix rerols.

They'll happily give players time to play the POE1 leagues that launch before POE2 does. They'll also see bumps when more classes are added.

Their worst case scenario would simply be to lower the EA price to get more testers, but it doesn't look like that will be needed anytime soon.

Trade is the reason we are no there. RMT game's gotta RMT. Bots game's gotta bot

No idea what any of those games are. I mainly play ARPG. Did they go viral? Did they launch when most people are going on holiday and have plenty of time to play? This game did and with in a month lost that many players.

The entire skill tree needs to be totally redone, it's horrible.
