Is PoE2 Falling Apart? How Long Until We Get Real Fixes?

Honestly, how long is this going to take? The game was one of the best, and now it's just a mess—broken servers, unplayable builds, devs ignoring feedback, and bots running the economy. Instead of fixing things, they just keep breaking more.
If they don’t take real action soon, what’s even left to enjoy? Are we still holding out hope, or is it time to move on?

GGG is having a blast because they made game for themselves based on their ''vision'' and we served only as a financers.

We were sold a lie , scammed for money and that's about it really.

They're on holiday, wait for monday/tuesday.

No, PoE 2 is not falling apart.

unplayable builds

If you look at poe2.ninja for HC SSF Dawn of the Hunt league (https://poe2.ninja/builds/dawnhcssf) you can actually see that almost all the ascendancies have players in the 90s using all sorts of different skills, only 12% of that leaderboard is using lightning spear.

Here are also some examples of other builds that are just deleting T15 bosses:

devs ignoring feedback

How do you think?

0.2 was focused on the biggest feedback that 0.1 got which was the tedium of end game content and tower mechanics. The end game is vastly improved in 0.2 and they are still responding to new feedback mid league by reducing the amount of nexuses you need to hunt and making it easier to access pinnacle boss content.

They also made a TON of other changes according to feedback already. The patch has only been live for less than 4 weeks, the amount of changes they have made in that time to address the feedback from the community is frankly astounding. I think you are underestimating how hard it is to make changes to the game like they are.

If you lost all hope for the game during the FIRST patch of early access then I don't think early access is for you. I'd recommend waiting for the full release and seeing if the game is more enjoyable to you then.

If they haven't been fixing stuff since 0.2 launch, you really need to get a reality check.

This is for all of those who want to use the EA argument to excuse the failures.

I think you imagined someone using that argument in this thread. Nobody has excused any problems with the game using early access as an argument.

GGG themselves have said that early access isn't an excuse and they can't change the experiences people have had with the game. That's also why they aren't doing mid league nerfs anymore.

You also didn't point to any specific issues in your post, very unproductive comment.

You made an entire comment here where you tried to excuse issues, and then ended it with:
"If you lost all hope for the game during the FIRST patch of early access then I don't think early access is for you. I'd recommend waiting for the full release and seeing if the game is more enjoyable to you then."

And btw, using HCSFF to make a build diversity argument is... weird.
There, everything has a completely different dynamic for obvious reasons.
Only 12% LS in HCSFF? Ok. Over 50% in SCTRADE.

Seriously ? You forgot what you yourself posted just above? xD

PoE2 is no more. There is PoE1 and Last Epoch. PoE2 is just their way to make some easy millions of $
