POE 2 - Multiplayer thoughts
So i have come to the conclusion that I for now wont be playing co-op with my buddy in POE 2.
For a game that initially talked about couch-co-op and and general co-op, Me and my buddy feel that the Awards are just not enough to motivate joining Endgame maps together or end game bosses. The game scales up in mob health/armour or whatever and makes them take longer time to kill, bosses are alot more tanky. This is coming from me, I have played around 800 hours since the ”EA realease”, around 50% of that time has been with my buddy, and that is coming to an end now. I think GGG needs to rethink the approach for Multiplayer, the awards should be scaled up somehow, I understand that there will be groups trying to take advantage of any xp / item rewards that might be improved. Multiplayer is kinda Dead imo, the risk/reward is to low, especially 85+ with XP loss on death. Thoughts i have is below is either Combination or just one of the suggestions: Improve ilvl/tier loot drops, to compensate for risk (risk/reward must be tweaked) Scale down tankiness of especailly bosses Reduce death penality in group as a result of mobs scaling up/tankiness. The game has great potential eventho the current state overall feels broken with loot not beeing great, I just feel its unfortunate that me and my buddy feel liek we are beeing punished for wanting to play co-op. This will fall to deaf ears ofcourse, but atleast i have my POV out there now and one can only hope! Last bumped on Apr 28, 2025, 4:27:02 AM
