Is This Game Still Unplayable Due To Desync?
" In PoE, "learning from your deaths" means learning to use a third party program (AHK), avoiding various skills, and not applying fairly typical strategies such as kiting and using the territory. None of my friends who tried PoE stuck with it, and in all cases desync was the #1 reason. I work around it, but I understand why people consider the game unplayable (especially if they are used to other ARPGs). | |
" There's no need for hostility, I'm just expressing of how I feel, haven't mentioned that my opinion is the one to go, just hoping for someone to take at least something out of it. It's very simple in this game - desync exists, and it's getting worked to improve this issue, but till that players have to adapt, and it's pretty much survival of the fittest. It's alright to recognize what was the cause of your death, but I firmly believe that it's never okay to put all blame on external causes of your misfortune, as in future you won't be able avoid the same situation you were in because of that.

Seems like he did learn.
To move on, and find a game that is polished and finished. If youre willing to tolerate desync that is absolutely fine (Hopefully you still criticize GGG for it, as it is extremely amateur and holding them back) but if someone at any point in time has considered PoE unplayable because of desync, they always will. GGG has said numerous times that it will never go away. They will keep working on it, like the trade system and other core flaws that hold the game back. They will focus completely on these issues and never dedicate time or resources to releasing butterfly wings because they are not ignorant to their own mistakes. Oh wait.

" You forgot "expansion packs". No expansion packs until desync is taken care of! Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance.
Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge. | |
Ah shit your right, they absolutely will not release any expansions that include content only a small fraction of the players will ever see because of terrible design.

" Are you talking about Atziri? I think you're talking about Atziri. Access to Atziri (content) was beyond terribly designed. ✮ in-game @FTMFW

" Terrible design by your standards. Atziri won't be accessible only to those who can't be bothered to farm a bit for the fragments, one can argue for RNG, but each fragment has a set drop value, those values aren't that obnoxious. Lets not forget that your fragment farming will be rewarded by a guaranteed unique from Atziri, a random one - to keep one looking for her again. But hell, this is off-topic and has a place in other Atziri threads. "I accept Nujabes as my Savior."

And will absolutely not release new content that's even more prone to desync, like for example a corrupted area boss that summons zombies and desecrate, no.
Oh wait look a Secluded Copse :O "Metas rotate all the time, eventually the developers will buff melee"
