* WASD for controller support. Going from poe2 to poe1 is very jarring on controller. WASD is a massive qol for controller players

Not as it is, the problem is that the two game have a fundamentally different design for how skills work and target things including the ground, and it is something that feels off in PoE2 for some stuff, and being GGG they would likely link this with new models and rigging including animations, in PoE2 this give momentum to a character and it feels wrong for those that would want to use mouse and keyboard.

The rest also no.

I don't see why wsad would require skills to have momentum. That was a design choice for poe2, not a mandatory limitation of wasd. The ability to change the direction of your character independently from the direction they are moving is all I'm asking for. I understand it's not an easy thing to implement, but I don't understand why everyone cries about adding it. You can just choose to play with the existing controls if you want too.

I know you're gonna bring up leap slam in poe2.I agree it's poorly implemented, its bad on controller too. What's stopping them from add adding alternate targeting settings for those types of skills? Imo if you are wasd, it should travel a set distance in whatever direction you're facing(no auto targeting). If you aren't, it should work like poe 1.

I get that the flame dash thing will never happen. To much of the game has been designed around it. I'm pretty sure all three of the og devs have said they wish they never had free spamable dashes in the game. It trivializes so much of the game, and limits how they can design boss fights.

I personally like pressing buttons, but there are too many keybinds for 5 flasks to feel good. The automation system they have isn't accessible untill late in the game, which kinda defeats the purpose.

I don't see why anyone would be against adding perfect basic currencies. Do you really enjoy wasting hours spam clicking thousands of currencies on half your gear?
That's the only thing I would change about crafting. What's the draw back? Endgame items are a little cheaper? So what, they were only more expensive because of a poorly designed tedious system.

What are you talking about?

Those who do it enjoy it.
Those who don't enjoy it don't do it and just buy the item they want.

What poe needs is temp leagues and more content all year around. That's what it gets too.

this is clearly rage bait

You'd be surprised how often people with poorly thought-out ideas unironically mean them.

lol I thought this thread would be about adding AH to PoE1

Can't think of anything else lacking in PoE1 that's in PoE2, except graphics ;)

I can't imagine disagreeing more with points being made by OP. But they may very well believe them. General Discussion has a long and consistent history of ideas that I think are quite bad.
