It's almost like they don't want path of exile players to love this game
They want a new audience and replace the old perhaps
I don't really know why. They killed off POE1, which is most of our favorite game of all time and then made POE2 with the intention of path of exile players not liking it that much.
Like after 0.1 they specifically looked for everything that players liked and got rid of it. Most people said the end game needs more mechanics so they added rogue exiles (which I cant get them to appear regularly in maps, they seem too rare and garbage). Then there is wisps, terrible idea and they purposely made it so that path of exile players would hate it because nobody wants to follow it around.
Someone at GGG hates FUN, literally.
I remember that Chris told us a while ago that he is basically the only one who defends "Headhunter" from its deletion because most of the team hates this item.
While they couldn't delete the item directly, thanks to his protection, they nerfed everything outside of the item "Headhunter" benefits from.
First, rare mods on monsters, then rare monsters in general, then density and so on.
Like... "What? We can't delete it directly? Then delete everything around it that it needs to be useful!".

I dislike almost everything about PoE 2 thus far but if you really feel the same then vote with your wallet and with your time.
Retention for 0.2 has been incredibly high yet again, proving that the silent majority (assuming they're real players) enjoys PoE 2 the way it is. I have no clue why people like the game when almost everything about it is worst in class, but until retention/revenue drops The Vision will remain in place. Streamers aren't going anywhere either. They have no choice but to play PoE 2 forever.

Are you sure streamers have no choice? When LE launches tomorrow, and the numbers are big, and people will jump from PoE to that game, they could make more money from that then staying with PoE, what forces them to stream poe? They already all do videos about LE and league starters :D

This is just untrue, I see Ghazzy, DsLily and many more jump over to LE.
So many streamers are jumping over.
Guess you need to check the facts before posting, respectfully ofcourse.

Im headin back to Diablo II
I dont care about crafting, i just want to get excited about item drops again
+1
Could not agree more, aRPG is a dopamine fix game!
Poe 2 is like getting a carrot when you want chocolate.
Just disappointing...
I don't even get carrots. I get the carrot tops that everyone cuts off and throws away.
to be honest, i think that is the state of the game for now. if you don't want to play LS, you are left with the crumbs no one wants.
truly a shame.

Keep in mind that many of the big streamers are "no lifers" -- IE: they can play (and often do as part of their day job) the game for 8+ hours a day. When you play that long, even with dogshit odds, you're eventually going to accrue things.
I always laugh at this idea of "streamer clients". I mean, I suppose it's *possible* --- I've worked on MMOs and know what can be done to change things for some accounts vs others --- but it'd be silly to do that and I really don't think they do.
Remember: If the drop rate is .01% and you only play for an hour here or there, it takes longer for you to get lucky and see the result (as far as actual calendar days / etc).
But if you're playing 10+ hours... you'll win eventually.
No such thing as streamer clients.
I've streamed on and off for years, was pretty popular when a game called Paragon was out and Epic owned it - they dropped in and gave my viewers codes for cosmetics, but there are no clients for streamers. Fortnite killed Paragon though,I still kick myself because I was invited as an Epic Partner and creator for the alpha version of Fortnite, missed my million dollar boat there, but kept my dignity at least.
There aren't streamer clients but GGG has been caught dropping items for people on streams before. According to the internet at least.
