What's the point of making the trials

too hard and dragging?

Don't get us wrong. Yes, challenge is good and satisfying. But too much challenge pisses off players. My brother and his friends uninstalled the game after act 3 trial of chaos.

Because everything in 2 needs to be able to make the player feel dragged down and frustrated,that's why.

Lab wasn't perfect by ANY stretch of the word,but it wasn't mean spirited and could be done quickly without much issue.

They don't want too many people playing. Costs too much for backend servers.
They're shooting for a small player base. Satisfy the 1% of ruthless players.

It's why they've modeled the game around dark souls and the dodge mechanic.

At least your friends know it's not the game for them.

A friend was enjoying campaign, got to Act 2 Sekhemas, didn't understand the rules and more or less moved on to other games tho intends to keep playing POE2 just isn't as much of a priority. Takes it a bit to figure out Sekhemas, but it's

In Chaos I'd love to see Bahlak toned down. I'd also like the 3rd reward to no longer deterministically be the lame soul cores that nobody in their right mind want. The way to farm Chaos since those got introduced is basically bail, especially if there are any decent rewards (divines, valuable soul cores), leading up to 3rd boss because it is simply not worth the time. Counterintuitive to rewarding players for sticking it out.

So trial fulfilled its purpose. Your brother and his friends are not worthy.

Honor form Trials should gone forever, it's get nothing to game, just more annoying.
