Stop nerfing the game and making it boring

The loud minority that wants to zoom through the content will never be pleased. So please stop dumbing down the game. The 0 to hero journey needs to matter or everyone will just get bored and leave.

The reality is, *YOU* are the loud minority.
The vast majority of players want what they were promised, a successor to PoE.

0.2/10 is catering to the lowest common denominator, and once those tourists move on the PoE community will be left with a choice between an abandoned game and a game they do not recognize or enjoy.

1. The new class is Huntress, which has access to a second ascendancy, Ritualist, which no one is playing.

2. Amazon has access to many skills, yet everyone is playing zoom zoom LS, and nobody is playing THE VISION. Numbers don't lie bro :)

I got confused with D2's Amazon. I meant to say Huntress.

Who is "everyone"? Streamers? Your friends?

I'm playing Ritualist. Am I nobody?

Yes your personal experience is insignificant.
I'm basing what I'm saying of poe2.ninja stats.

Currently, Ritualist is 3% of the meta, Amazon is 48%
Among those Amazon players, 87% are using LS.
As you said yourself, numbers don't lie :)

Nah you just represent 2% of players playing ritualist. So, a tiny minority.

You are the loud minority that just wants to zoom. The rest of us just want to play the game, and if we leave because the game is boring and unfun, there's not going to be enough of you to support a game like PoE 2.

Majority vs Minority case was closed when 380k of total 580k players already quit the game in just 2 monhts and didn't even deign to play 0.2.

Time to wake up to the reality.

close this thread,

he is trolling. No one with a brain wants the balancing from 0.1 (clearing the whole map with 1 button).

#closed

nobody, huh? Literally 48% of the league is playing the exact same amazon LS build, which does exactly that. That's of the 150-200k players that are still around, which is already down from the 570k peak they had at EA release.

Those of you thinking the game is fine are the minority. The game is literally dying in front of your face and you're getting mad at the people trying to save it.

These numbers are insignificant. They don't matter. What matters is at the moment more players are playing PoE 2 than PoE 1 EVER had. Source; Johnathan :)

Great, more random numbers. PoE 2 sold MORE than 1 million early access copies before it even went live. That's a confirmed fact.

In your opinion, once LS is nerfed into the ground because it doesn't fit THE VISION, and all that is left is the slow slog that you and 3% of the (remaining) playerbase enjoy, what is going to happen to thse numbers ?

Let's see if you can figure that out.

PoE2
playing 27 min ago - 174,601
24-hour peak - 204,068

PoE1
all-time peak - 228,398

Even in that you’re mistaken. You should call it quits.

Diablo 4 sold even more, that doesn’t make it good either.

You are part of the loud minority, not me. Case in point, if you weren't, PoE 2 would dead right now because all you PoE 1 stuck ups would've left already. The fact is, the game is doing very well without you :)

Unless GGG wants this game to keep doing well, they need to stop dumbing it down and making it easier. That's how you destroy the game and everyone leaves.
