So 0.4.0 Released yesterday. Already bored. Game play pacing is way off.

The patch is garbage as per usual...
The endgame is boring AF.
Towers, useless, looking 300 tablets where just 2 or3 mods are valuables GARBAGE, looking an external website fo make a filter so you can play the game GARBAGE, looking another mod to trade and pricecheck another garbage, the crafting system omens, orbs and shit.. crafting a fucking crosbow with more than 700dps cost a fortune, the market second day of league 100ex - 1 div.. people paying ascendancy because the FUCKING MECHANIC OF SEKEEMA SUX. The druid, another garbage, the servers.. the Fps drops.. etc.. I consider myself a big fan of poe I have arround 4000h but dudes, this is so frustrating, every single legue you literally remove the meta builds to the floor instead of balancing.. it sux.


BTW how will you balance the fact that any BOOTS without movement are absolutely useless? and a weapon without+level of gems the same,., even if you got perfect other mods..

IS SO STUPID..

Should probably get good at leveling if you think pacing is off. HCSSF had players already at level 80+ within 24 hours.

Im lvl86 and I agree the pacing is SHIT. 0.4 is just BAD, IT IS BORING, tedious, looking for garbage on the atlas makes me sick, no citadels on sight no corruption just maping without end..

Literally the shortest league I've ever played in POE 1 and 2. This game is simply not rewarding at all in it's current state.

+1

I see same problems with game and melee

Fun fact about my campaign.
I literary i'm running out of flask charges on "refill" flask phase of act 1 and act 2 bosses when i'm trying to play something that isn't super optimized. Can't port out. Can't refill.


And I'm am just tired playing Maggot's Lair every single map. All the game is a set of character wide corridors with degen pool in the way.

I never feel excited when something drops because it is 9/10 times just trash.

Thats the nature of slot machine type of drops in these games. If you would get the best item immediatly, then every single other item after the fact is automatically trash. And if all drops are automatically better than what you have, then you run into a problem of Bethesda games where road bandits want to rob you for pocket change while wearing legendary armor, or finding a legendary mace in a quest that is immediatly crap afterwards because a rusty orc axe in a random cave is +1 better.

I'm def not expecting a game changing drop every other drop that is not what I am saying. Crafting is trash, we need to use external website for loot filter, we need to use external website for trade to find anything remotely decent unless you grind or get lucky. The problem with itemization weapon drops are mostly like "+1 to damage on tuesday".... yay ? Like Ive not had one item drop that has made me go "WOW" now this is gona take my build to the next level. In PoE2 you always feel weak as shit with such slow progression and it's honestly not an exciting game to play.

I spend more time looking at a guide because 90% of builds fkn suck ass. Like why are they forcing me not to play the game ? Why cant I just pick a random build and send it ?

I played through 1 act and now I 100% know this class and am bored of everything.....

bro you havent even played the class or new update xD

this is genuinley sad

git gud

Tbh i kinda agree with him. The issue is you dont really have room to experiment with a class in the campaign.

You stick to what you have cause changing is barely an option with how much gold you get. Gold is the limiting factor here imo

After Act 1 you saw what you play and use that for the rest of the Campaign. You might swap out one skill for another or add one mroe skill, but the fundamental way of how you play sth. wont change.

Pretty much actually. Its so boring. Ive seen everything in the campaign 15 times there is nothing interesting anymore.

The game is a slog even playing with a meta build and decked out with the best movement speed gear available. Why is dodge roll a thing in this game? Why is every boss fight dependant on it? Why does every boss have 1 shot mechanics where you have a fraction of a second to react to in order to survive? All this boils down to poor game design like everything else wrong with the game.
