Tbh I couldn´t do live interviews with such an absurd amount of negativity thrown in my face.

I also think Zizarans points are ill-thought out, at one point he suggested that NPCs should hint at players what runes to slot in weapons for best effect, just weird points the dude tries to make. Or saying that some people from his chat said they got 10 exalts in act 1 and zero in act 2 and 3, what do you even say to that nonsense, even if it happened once it´s strictly RNG


You are taking what Ziz said completely out of context, Ziz suggestion was literally in response to what the dev's said about knowledge and this was his off the cuff answer, completely reasonable too as I was thinking something similar. Look I'm not a Ziz fanboy, I don't watch his stream but yall are just as bad as his chat is based on what your saying.

Agree, Ziz is doing great. Also, for those lol about the socket question, here I sit with zero sockets as I'm checking every vendor and picking up every item including whites looking for sockets to salvage.


Screen your character /gear and post it here


Theres no way you have this issue.


5 characters .1 and now another, SSF this time, and 0 socket issues.



+1. Also.. "Everything" and "0" stands against itself..

You've probably caught a snap shot of a longer conversation if you only joined for a few seconds.

It was very free flow where he obviously had some prepared questions but then responded to the chat.

Disappointed with the movement speed response. Jonathan didn't have a very good answer about that saying we shouldn't be faster than the monsters and thats fair enough but even +10% would improve the flow of the game so much.

Hi everyone,

Please keep in mind the forums are for civil, constructive discussion of the game, and avoid antagonising and personally attacking one another as it breaches our rules.

Well, players got slowed down everywhere. Slower, methodical play. It's a very widely accepted issue that, especially early on in the character's development, monsters are far too fast.

In general I think they need to shrink monster count, low their speed, and make it so the player can use mechanics like parry against the 1-3 monsters they fight at a time. Maybe a Rare pack ends up being 5, which makes it more difficult. But you can't really have combos and thought out combat when you are getting rushed down and gang-banged literally everywhere but the boss arena.

I guess I should take a look at the interview. Kinda lost hope in this format as they gloss over important topics or flat out lie/refuse to answer things.

Can you imagine this gameplay when you opening map, observing huuuuge empty map with like 3 rares and 10 white mobs and you have to fight them like it’s sentinels from elden ring? I assume you guys never reached end game content, never killed arbiter t4, never played few classes and never reached 97 lvl plus before in poe 2. Because your reflections looks exactly that. You’re fantasizing about lord of fallen (it’s first part, sluggish and poorly designed) in game where like 90% mechanics came out from poe 1, Even engine.

Content creators are the real issue here. Their goal is to trivialize all content as quickly as possible and when that doesn’t happen or they’re confronted with actual challenge - they lose their mind and throw a fit in the name of “fun”.

People straight lying now lol

Issues with sockets?


Theres no way anyone is having this issue. Check the vendors and drops and youll always have sockets available




he's not collecting items with socket to dissemble them. Just rushing campain. It's the worst person to invite to interview


Gee, it's almost like PoE2 is suffering the same problem as PoE1: Campaign is unrewarding, unfun, and he's trying to reach endgame as quickly as possible.

Maybe GGG should let players skip campaigns finally...
PoE players: Our game has a wide diversity of builds.

Also PoE players: The [league mechanic] doesn't need to be nerfed, you just need to play a [current meta] build!

And the winds will cry / and many men will die / and all the waves will bow down / to the Loreley
They are faster than you.
You cannot outrun them.
They are too fast.
In a game with no crafting bench so no run speed.

Nothing can run faster than you unless it has a leash, the mobs chase you to the entrance.

TBH not a big deal, but i noticed.
I didn't watch interview i'm scared to, ill prolly just get pissed.

But as he plays hardcore, he will tune into things that will kill him.
That's one of them

Run Speed on boots fixes many issues.
wow i get mad even typing now.. jesus.

You guys just want a punching bag since your sacred cow is getting kicked around by the community, so you blame streamers. Streamers don't control Reddit and they don't control Steam numbers. All those streamer videos came out after Reddit was already on fire and Steam was already showing negative results. They are doing reactionary content....

You guys and your tin foil hats.... Streamers didn't even hardly make build videos since there was no solid information to make build video's I bet you guys blame them all for that too, right?
Completely agree. I like the interview, he asks good questions. And he as a streamer-player is not that bad. We all have seen that screaming asian guy who cursed on devs. Completely crazy behaviour. Criticism is legit, but the rage is not.

I am pretty much happy now with both Devs responses. Jonathan may need to comunicate his thoughts a little better, he has great points that can be misinterprited.

Also, besides streamers Reddit and this same forum is a big problem. I wish mods restricted and deleted more posts with negativity and raging baby takes.
