I think it's brilliant😎

I read down several pages of complaints and saw no praise. GGG, it's brilliant now and I can't wait for it to get better still.

As for the complaints of it being too difficult I'd suggest try harder! With my first build I had to repeat various quests multiple times from the beginning to build experience and then fight the boss multiple times with different skills and defences to find what worked. What's the fun without some thought and skill.

Yes there's much to sort. I found the mercenary slow going and the ranger many times faster I hope balancing characters is achieved mainly by boosting the mercenary rather than nerfing the ranger. There again maybe it was just my mercenary build that was crap.

As for the person who thought there were rooms and corridors with no one trying to kill you then if that's your thing return to the well known RPG where there is endless thousands baddies but little thought required in killing them. There is suspense in wondering what is around the corner.

Hope the frame rate / server load issues are improved. Problems there can be painful in big boss fights especially.

Nice to see some positivity here for a change. They've done an amazing job and gotten rid of basically all of the things from POE1 that made it unenjoyable for me.

Lets hope you wont join the other site in a few days or weeks ..

Yep, same. So much I dislike about PoE1 is gone with PoE2, well... some would argue "the good things are gone too", but I don't have a doomer view on PoE2, so I am just trying not to lose my mind until we get "Huntress".

Hang on, so it is now considered "positive" to write one sentence of "good job GGG" followed by octuple the amount of text complaining about the complainers?

Is this what the PoE2 community has now devolved into? Apologists and doomsayers? "Us vs. Them" has never made anything better, but great to see that even the "positive posts" perpetuate that broken mentality...

I can't even code a simple task manager, but the GGG guys are currently rewriting history - wrong again.

Sadly, that does seem to be the timeline we live in, yes. It sucks, but I guess it is what it is.

Personally, I am looking forward to the upcoming 0.2.0 announcement. I think that PoE2 has recovered a lot of the feel of original PoE (circa 1.0), and I think that a lot of its current issues are either a) the result of half the game not having been added yet, or b) fixable. I'm not loving Trials, for example, but I do think they're fixable. The item system needs a lot of work, but it's only half-finished.

I don't think it's a "git gud" situation; I think the game has real pacing and balance issues. I also have faith that GGG have time and talent enough to address those issues, and a desire to do so. I think they can get a handle on the scope and scale of the project, and also on the challenges of continuing to develop PoE2 while also supporting PoE1 for the people who prefer its faster blaster pacing.

Of course, only time will tell if that faith is misplaced, but I've been supporting them for a decade now, and haven't seen any reason yet to abandon ship.

I'd love to see people making more of an effort to come together around their shared love of a thing, rather than taking every opportunity to further divide the player community, but such is the state of the internet in the current year.

A bit of constructive feedback doesn't count as negativity. When I broke down my thoughts on POE2 after grinding it I had a bunch of critiques and suggestions but it was still positively focused.

@ block blast unblocked It's refreshing to see someone embrace the challenge rather than complain about it. Repeating quests and experimenting with different builds not only adds depth but also makes those hard-fought victories feel even more rewarding. I’m with you on the balancing issue too boosting the mercenary might be the way to go rather than nerfing the ranger, especially for those of us who enjoy a bit more strategy in our gameplay. Thanks for sharing your insights.

seems like more of the 'complaining about complainers" but with a thin veil
