1. "Silent majority" -- The 'silent majority' has never been a thing. In anything. Ever. Amazing how people who claim to be a part of the "silent majority" never shut up about it.
2. "Majority" -- As another poster said, none of the numbers we have available back this up. At all.
3. "Silent" -- This is a beta for a game still in development. People need to give feedback. Staying silent in a beta is, like, the exact opposite of its intended purpose.
4. "Streamers" -- Almost all of the big streamers in the PoE category only play PoE. And a good chunk of the big streamers that aren't PoE mains play often enough that they shouldn't be considered tourists.
5. "FACTS and LOGIC" --
a. Again, no available FACTS support any assertions that a supposed 'silent majority' even exists.
b. Hard to read any FACTS and LOGIC from insults like "crybabies" and "whiners." Pretty standard procedure from the FACTS and LOGIC crowd to toss around ad hominems then cling to their opinions and emotions claiming they're FACTS and LOGIC.
You like 0.2? Great. I don't. And I don't care that you do. Your fun doesn't pertain to my lack of fun. And you shouldn't take my lack of fun as an affront to your fun. Shaming people for disagreeing with you? Insulting people for sharing feedback of a BETA in the FEEDBACK FORUM? That I care about. That grinds my gears. Miraculously, there are people in this very thread who have somehow managed to give positive constructive feedback without resorting to name-calling. Maybe try to be more like them instead of... whatever this is.
This is my third account. It's three weeks shy of ten years old. I created my first account the day 1.0 launched. I've been around a long time. This forum's -- every forum's -- toleration of insults from the toxic positivity crowd has always been baffling. Corposhill? A well-deserved timeout. Crybabies? Whiners? A totally undeserved free pass. Infuriating
Somebody with a 10+ year addiction to a specific game is probably the least likely to have a fair and objective opinion on its sequel. Nothing will ever scratch the itch for people like you and theres nothing wrong with that. Telling the developers that you like the current state of the game isn't toxic

I also like the direction Dawn of the Hunt was taking.

It really sounds like you very much disagree with it?

[A]ll the whiners are showing up to the Feedback section of the forum.
Shocker.

The 0.2 patch is an unmitigated disaster of epic proportions. If GGG's goal was to make every aspect of the game feel infinitely worse then they have succeeded.
There is negative publicity about this patch all over the internet, not just these forums.

Concurrent players less than a PoE league. If I were GGG seeing that I'd be panicking
Why lying? current players right now have 230k only on steam, wtf are you talking about, poe 1 league players are betwen 10k and 30k...

Playing Huntress. Parry lightning and tornadoes. It's slow. Methodical. And fun. If I play my cards right, I can delete the whole screen. Bosses take patience, planning, and precise execution.
The people crying are absolute babies.
They can go play PoE 1 if they want to mash 1 button.
I almost fell asleep reading this. This must be the most boring description of ARPG combat out there. But thankfully you added the mandatory insult, because you never seemed to have graduated from "disagree = bad" and "critique = crybaby".
To add something to the "discussion", so far 0.2.0 has been... meh. Not necessarily bad, just boring. It's as easy as before, just slower. Feels like GGG really doesn't know what they want the game to be, based on the hotfixes already deployed.

"Less than a PoE league". Settlers started out with 229k players on Steam, where the split is something like 60/40 between Steam and Standalone.
0.2 started with 238k players on Steam, which is where the vast majority of people are playing, since it picked up a bunch of people that weren't already established players. 9k more players on Steam isn't enough to compensate.
Thus, 0.2 has less starting players than the start of a PoE league.
PoE2 is a great tutorial for PoE1.

Please don't turn PoE2 into a reskinned PoE1 because of a crying vocal minority. The point of PoE2 was to make something unique and engaging in a different way.
Alot of us are loving the gameplay of Dawn of the hunt, stay strong, don't fold on your core principles, people will adapt and learn to enjoy something new and innovative.
The point of poe2 was a expansion and i think some technical changes.... what to hell u talking about.
