Why do you want to waste the players time?

I just wasted 45 minutes of my life running trial of sekhemas, i got through it all wrather easily level 4 sekhemas, at the boss. i failed the timer of collecting the orbs because i lacked the movment speed for it. no second attempt. no stash access so i could overcome the problem by adapting and putting on higher movement speed. or putting on a blink.


why do yo have this hardon for wanting to waste peoples time? i reached the boss. i ran through all your hoops, why not give me FUN and let me battle boss and let me adapt to it while im at the boss. you really think i wanna keep playing when you just want to waste my time?



Why do you hate fun so much? why is torture and time waste your primary game design?



is this what you want the player to feel playing your game? because congratulations that is what i feel. and looking at the player numbers. i sure am not the only one.

If you fail collecting the hourglasses you can esc into char select before he actually kills you.

Then you will be back at the chamber before him. You loose the honour you lost during the fight but at least you get a second shot at it.

If you dont have enough movement speed take a movement ability for this phase.

if you dont use a second weapon set use that for a movement ability + socket blink

since you only use this weapon set during this phase you dont loose any dmg.
you're wasting your time no matter if you kill the boss or not

personally think boss is fine and prefer content that isn't completely trivial, especially when encountering it for the first time

stop leaning on player numbers like it's a banner you're marching under, leave your own independent feedback

Otherwise you're instantly marked as "one of those"

isnt wasting players time is all what poe 2 is about?

huge empty maps with 0 movement speed causing you to spend 90% of your time in game walking..

20-40 hours campain depending how you play..

the wost possible layout causing you to waste more time and more of your leagues content

very slow gameplay with very clunky and unfun skills that have alot of issues and require to click to many stuff ..

0 actual loot inside of a mountain of useless "loot" junk

list goes on and on.. i think majority of us and players already figured out that all this game does is waste time .. which is why the majority of the players do not play anymore because they got better things to do with their time
If you get to the room before last boss, and you have not gotten the movementspeed Boon or have the gear to handle the speed needed. You cna then when you select the map device, click at the bottem corner and select leave.

It will save your run at that point.


Then you can run to your stach, go buy from vendor, maybe trade an item. Phone a friend maybe to log on fast to help?

In any case that is what iv done multiple times at any point of the trail runs before selecting the next room to sort out problems i might have atm (or gotten via bad boons).

Should make life easyer for you for sure :)

or if you just want a break to eat, sleep what-ever.
Cant have to much Junk in your Stash
I lost countless hours on single checkpoints/ bosses in games. I lost a hundred matches in chess vs local tourney players before I even had a shot, guess what no boss for me. I wasted hundred runs in motorsport sims for a single record, flew dozens of hours in flight sims just to get shot each time. I can only conclude. what a waste of life. Could have played Need for speed/ Ace combat/ Doom on easy, checkers with kids and I would then ascend to a true PoE 2 critic.

No win no boss no instant gratification = waste of time, you're just a paragon of that loud section of arpg crowd that ruins one arpg after another.

Did you even read his post? His problem is not boss difficulty, it is the 45 minute runback to the boss having to repeat all the pointless trials.

They don't read, their entitlement is that because they invested thousands of hours in the game, so should everyone else.
The number of players playing atm is large enough that GGG will not change much about it, and they will cater to the white knights, so the smartest thing is to leave the game to them and save your money.

They can enjoy THE VISION together.

No paying game deserves more than an hour a day to give you some enjoyment, relax, and unwind. Only Mazohist and a person with no life whatsoever would want to invest 5h or more in a game.
The game is made to force you to buy as much stash as possible, to travel between maps, and lose hours on gambling to get to the items that you would probably make in minutes if the game had a meaningful crafting system.

Everything is revolving around that idea. Greed is the vision.
