Reddit community is garbage

First thing I really hope this reaches Devs. Stay strong on your vision! Please, If people want to one shoot teleport everything like in POE 1, well they have POE 1!! Now my criticisms for the developers and the community. They shouldn't have updated the old league with the new content. They shouldn't have listened to the whiners on Reddit who are never the majority of the players that actually play for more than 1-2 weeks. All the builds were nerfed and you don't understand that there are many casual players who make a lot of noise and expected to spam a button in their old builds to oneshot and just as easily leave the game in 1 week. I read in the global chat with horror, just like many others (attached images), players were complaining about the new patch on Reddit.. and well, we already know the relationship Reddit has with casual players (D3, D4) because the vast majority of people who are actually playing the game don't come to waste time posting about everything that didn't give them a serotonin rush... I have read many posts from warriors complaining, being the most overpowered class currently. Top players on HC are warriors lvl 80!!! They say the Amazon isn't good, even though the bleeding bursts in masses. The ranger turned out quite well, in fact, so much so that there is a level 65 in HC among the top 5. The witches, sorceresses, and monks were nerfed but not unplayable; in fact, if casual players took the time to build their characters, they would see that there are options just as strong as the previous ones... of course! they can no longer spam skills with mana, but building builds is a big part of the game. And it gives the impression that those who complain are casual players of the Blizzard type (IwantIwantIwant) who don't even take the time to read the patch notes, who don't know that there are new spirit gems, talk about how chaos is good when in reality it has been good since early access, and only noticed it now that they saw it in the last race or because of the new specialization, they specifically NERFED chaos for the new specialization to balance it. The Mid-tier streamers who simply want to farm drama and move on to their next big release, because for them it's just a constantly moving business and the less time you spend and the quicker you jump to the next big release, the better you'll do farming subscribers. Complaints from people who haven't even left Clearfell and come to Reddit to impose their opinion just because their favorite streamer is also as bad as them, not taking the time to create new builds with the new ascendancies and gems. GGG this is not your player base, most of this complainers are not going to stay more than 1 week in the game anyway, they don't want to deal with builds.. Most of them just want to search a youtube build and smash their keyboards wasd + q. I have two suggestions for the next big patch.. Dont let people play new content with their old chars, because they are attached to them, the will be hesitant to try something new. Or, and this is a polemic one: Make the next patch test only for hardcore league. This complains and the streamers farmers will disappear, because the willl see people reaching lvl 50 or lvl 70 from zero with their same class in the first day. That way instead of blaming the game or Devs maybe they will notice that their build sucks and they need to improve it, and maybe they will understand loosing EXP is not a big deal when you loose your character because you dont have to rush.

Isn't that the crux of our complaint. Standard shouldn't feel like hardcore. The only thing that was slowed down is us. The monsters come in hot and plentiful. The Mer does his taxes faster than he can roll out of the way. The combos are clunky. The variety in builds are still limited. Change is one thing. That big patch awhile ago is understandable but this is atrocious. Let me be powerful. By the way I'm playing as we speak. That doesn't mean that I like it. It means that I'm masochistic and suffer from buyer's remorse. Especially since I bought the Lord Olgham pack for 4 people including myself.

most will agree that they can make the game as slow as they like, so long as it's fun.
...and I guess a lot of us just don't find it fun to run around in 1km2 act zones having to hit the 40 packs of white mobs 4 times each just to get to the next zone to do it all again. until we get to the end game where our actions and decisions start to mean something to us. |

" You’re so delusional that just seeing the desperate hotfixes they’re releasing invalidates everything you say. "Vision?" Sure thing — watch their vision fade with each hotfix. So sad, witnessing the downfall of their so-called vision in real time. |
