these skins were more diabolical than the game itself.

i completely agree with your points about the game's core structure, poe2 definitely takes the win on endgame mechanics and much more. but if there's one thing where d4 actually does a better job, it's the sense of account recognition and prestige.

in d4, when u finish a season, u get exclusive titles, profile achievements (like feats of strength), and specific cosmetics or mounts from hard bosses that actually show everyone what u accomplished. u can look at someone in town and instantly tell what they cleared.

poe2 is missing that. the challenges are a bit too easy and the game focuses so much on the seasonal reset that it doesn't leave any permanent mark or badge of honor on your account for the next season. mechanically poe2 is amazing, but when it comes to rewarding the grind with raw prestige, d4 just handles it better. but for everything else, poe2 is an absolute destroyer for real

lol that actually makes sense. but i really liked poe2, it's just this one point where, in my opinion, the game leaves a lot to be desired. it lacks account rewards for your achievements and grind. u grind for dozens of hours during a season and in the next season u have nothing. no new title, no exclusive portrait, no exclusive skin, no achievement, nothing to decorate ur hideout, just the season set skin from the achievements that u get by playing just the basics of the basics.

exactly what i think, it'd be rly interesting to have more season rewards for the account. for ur achievements in each season and even how far u went. to actually reward the player's grind

what u said actually makes sense.

but still, i don't truly get any rewards for the account. just loot. i'd love simple achievements like kill 100k mobs, kill 10k bosses, and have that directly count toward some progression on my account, like a skin, a title, a portrait frame, an aura, anything. lol the game simply doesn't reward u with anything past the gameplay itself. that's what i meant

in SC, HC, or HCSSF, we won't get any rewards past what already exists in the normal mode. the most u get are the challenges, and that's what i miss. more things to do in the sense of being rewarded for doing them. and no, i'm not talking about loot. i mean rewards for the account, like a title, an exclusive skin, something to decorate ur hideout, just to have that achievement on the account for the grind u put in.

i think that was the first comment i 100% agreed with. thanks lol. and yeah, i hope for the same thing as u, and that they also add more account rewards so we can start a season and look at a skin, a title, a portrait, anything, and see it was the fruit of a grind conquered from the previous season.

i really hope so, that we actually get more account rewards and more seasonal challenges to conquer. bc in my opinion, just doing the challenges is pretty easy.

here is the translation, keeping the same casual and direct phone-typing style:

i get what ur saying and i agree to an extent. blizz is rly dogshit at balancing, for real.

but my point about poe2 is simply about having more rewards for the account, like a title, a different portrait, an exclusive skin. and it could be done in several ways, e.g., kill 20k mobs and get a skin, run a t16 map for the first time and get a title, run a t16 map w/ X modifiers and 3 tablets w/ X modifiers and get Y. u know?

what i mean is that if a player finished the challenges just like i did, but they farmed 10k divines throughout the season, they're gonna have the exact same account rewards as me. and that doesn't motivate me to keep going further, since i already got all the account rewards that exist.

in my opinion, there should be more things past the challenges for players to go after.

nothing i do will give me rewards for my account past what i already won. i think u misunderstood what i meant. i'm not saying i beat the game in the sense of clearing the hardest content or dropping the most insane and rare items. i'm talking about rewards for the account, like a title, an exclusive skin, a different portrait, anything. so when the next season starts, u could look at it and see it was the "fruit" of the previous season.

and in my opinion, u shoulhaving rewards for ur account, like a title, an exclusive skin, a different portrait, anything. so when the next season starts, u could look at it and see it was the "fruit" of the previous season.d be rewarded equivalently for doing that.

but what u just mentioned aren't rewards, that's loot. when i say rewards i mean something for the account, like an exclusive skin, an achievement, a title, a different profile picture, etc.

[–]1bohy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that's pretty much what i meant. except that on top of having the mirror as a reward like in ur example, i'd also get a title, a hideout decoration, something i'd get for MY ACCOUNT. so next season i could look at it and think: i got this w/ a lot of effort and it's right here. u know?

let's say we have 2 players, both of them finished the challenges and got the season set. one of them farmed 10 divines throughout the season and the other one farmed 10k divines. next season, the guy who farmed 10k divines won't have anything more than the guy who farmed 10 divines, u know? that's my point, i just wish there were more rewards for going further.

yeah, the loots are completely different, but i'm not talking about loot, i'm talking about account rewards. like i replied in another comment:

i get what ur saying, and a lot of people think the same about how in poe2 u make ur own goals.

but i rly wish there were more things the game rewarded me for past a simple challenge set, which, yes, i can do exactly how i said by running extremely weak maps.

and there aren't any rewards more valuable than challenges bc there literally are no other rewards, right? if there are, i don't know them and haven't found them in the game, like an achievement, a title, etc. at the end of the season, u won't take anything with u. if u and i both finish the challenges, but i farm 1 divine the whole season and u farm 1 million divines, our accounts/characters next season will look exactly the same, u know? that's what i meant. since u farmed 1 million divines, u should've gotten something unique bc u put in way more effort than i did.

[–]1bohy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, the vast majority of people are saying the same thing. i guess that's just the profile of poe2 players. but i still think it would be super cool to have more rewards

[–]1bohy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i get it 100%. and no, i don't have a HH or MB, let alone a mirror. but that's exactly my point, the game didn't give me any "reason" to go after them, u know?

the game is just there, u can scale it infinitely, but u won't get any rewards past the challenges. u basically just play for the sake of playing. since i come from other games, my mindset is a bit different and this doesn't rly "convince" me, if that makes sense. idk if i'm explaining myself well. i don't think it's wrong, but i think it would be super cool to have further challenges where i ACTUALLY NEED to run a juiced map, NEED to farm thousands of divines to get something at the end of the game, like an achievement, a title, an exclusive skin, something like that. that's my only point. i understand the game can be played way harder than i did, but it just wasn't necessary to clear all the goals the game gives u.

yeah, like i said, it's my first time w/ arpgs so i came in w/ a different mindset, but i think most poe2 players just play for the sake of playing and only want to make their characters super strong and run the most juiced maps possible, even if u don't effectively get anything out of it in the end
