How many times have you played through to endgame?

.010 I played through six times.
.020 I quit at level 27

That should tell you everything you need to know.

Maybe you just enjoy this pacing and I don't. Ok.

Play it by yourself. I'm out.

sounds more like you burnt yourself out, what were you expecting to be precise?



And why did he burn himself out? Did you consider that it was because the game became TEDIOUS?

It's so tedious, it took them seven playthroughs in five months to get bored. Maybe it has nothing to do with the game.

I would say make atleast the cruel acts easier, i feel like the game got 2-3x as hard as season 1, they killed many fun builds that were obv. too broken but i feel like they went into a souls like arpg, i still enjoy it tho. take ur time and learn the mechanics and just have fun. no need to be lvl 80 in 2 days.


agreed. feels like people want to rush and than complain about being smashed.
legit had someone tell me my opinion wasn't worth it because I wasn't in act 3 within 3 hours of playing...

I don't get why people just can't play it slow, figure things out. I mean that's how i enjoy most games, just figuring it out along the way.

i never looked up a guide for both POE1 and POE2 and never had any real problems. Tho admittedly i've not reached end-game yet.

yeah the game is so tedious that he enjoyed about 5-6months of endless gameplay, playing the game over and over again for atleast 7 times.

That's like saying a COD campaign sucks because you finished it 7 times already.

Bro this is a tired strawman. After I realized POE2 wasnt for me, I picked up pOE1 after over a year Hiatus and played for a month. Then I tried 0.2 and quit in 3 hours. If it's game burnout, I think I'd have trouble going to the "outdated" version of the game and playing for about 30 times longer than the sequel, and then also managing to get the willpower to try 2 yet again.

This is pretty disingenuous, spinning it to suit your needs.

0.10 - They played six times through, meaning they enjoyed the grindfest, etc.
0.20 - They couldn't make it through the campaign it was such a chore.

How hard is it to see that something changed between these two experiences? Why are you trying to invalidate their experiences? Why are you completely ignoring the fact that the person said it BECAME tedious.

It's an EA game with very little content still, you can't compare that to finished games. So it makes sense that you burn out faster. So no it's not disingenuous, i can say the same about your take.

Again I have yet to hear a counter argument, and all i'm hearing is ad-hominem attacks.

>OP builds got nerfed
>Enemies got buffed
OMG WORST UPDATE EVER (it's the first update but okay) GAME IS LITERALLY UNPLAYABLE WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!

^that's how people (streamers) sound like online.
meanwhile i see regular gamers online just enjoying the game and having a good time.

Even after all the patches released since 0.2 went live the game is still a disaster and every aspect of the game feels infinitely worse than 0.1. It's bad game design.


instead of saying " everything sucks" explain what is different and got worse. because so far i'm not experiencing any difference except for level design.


-400% increased monster life is different (fact GGG posted that)
-Nerfs in amount of gold, gear and currency drops during campaign (despite GGG stating they wanted people to craft a lot).

Theyre you go.
That warrior doesnt have a problem which is logical since it got buffed a lot doesnt mean the rest of the game or classes are well balanced. You dont know is the fact just as i dont know how warrior feels. Iam expressing what i've experienced with Huntress, it was a mess and i had to rely to heavily on a good spear drop which never came. I finally crafted a ok one and the vendor sold one which was to expensive to buy so yeee.

I actually had fun with the skills of huntress. The power was just underwhelming and this game became a game with a slot machine gear wise which is not the type of style i like to play. I really dont know why they changed those things that i stated up here. Theyre you go some facts and my opinion.
Oh btw i liked that they nerfed all OP builds. My experience has nothing to do with that since huntress is a new class with new skills..

Dude you can have your opinion and can have fun but stating that normal gamers dont have problems with this patch is wild. I dont know were you looked at the internet xD. its literally everywhere the complaints, reddit youtube, in the comments and this forum open your eyes. And yes there are also people liking the game but that wasnt your point so i stick my answer to that. The majority of people seem to be upset with the patch and you see it in the player retention (this is a fact btw look it up). And look it up again at 17 april when Last Epoch comes out, that would say enough about how the majority of people like this patch despite some people still having fun with it.
