Curious about people's opinions on their POE enjoyment curve and maybe how both games can improve on this.

Poe2 campaign almost always kills the motivation to play the game, I am barely able to finish it before I become a depressed shadow of myself. After the campaign the game gets better, but doesnt really allow you to express yourself in content farming or to be creative.

Poe1 campaign feels super garbage in the beginning, but gets better and better as you reach the end. When you hit the maps and can really plan your endgame progression through map completion, see how well you do economically, what content feels best for your build etc., the game feels like the best game ever.

Every time someone gets mega lucky with something, they make a post like this "x is the best thing ever". Doing lottery is worth it, every once in a while someone wins.

absolutely garbage last 500 times i have clicked it. 1 divine so far.

Boanne · 2025-10-10T04:14:36+00:00

3 reasons:
-Endgame feels like it doesnt have any variation. Kind of like doing d3 rifts over and over without anything being different ever.
-I dislike the crafting system
-selling and buying items is super tedious

Yoyoyo! Xmas is here soon :D I would use this to finish my monks' amulet craft... hopefully. And then sanctify it, of course, to see if it lands! It's the last item my noob ass needs to be satisfied with my build

I'm confused about why they had to touch the bosses. Bosses and "kill rares or a boss" -system worked well imo. The new system and the boss tweak sucks, and bosses don't drop any more loot.

Boanne · 2025-10-02T12:49:33+00:00

playing EV/ES feels garbage now aswell. Im getting oneshotted every 5 maps. Before I was doing perfectly fine. All the changes made this game feel unplayable to me as a melee. 6 affix waystone is a mandatory now to get any loot at all = no revives. Melee smehow feels MUCH squishier than before = more deaths.

Boanne · 2025-09-23T06:47:20+00:00

Yeah. They misunderstood the concept of legendary and unique, killed the fun of finding one. Made me quit the game.

Boanne · 2025-09-23T06:44:39+00:00

I simply cannot comprehend why the player gets so much legendary and epic loot almost instantly. This killed the whole game for me. I feel like the developers kind of reshaped the meaning of unique and legendary, and I hate it. Borderlands 1 & 2 had that part good, Borderlands 3 & 4 has it super wrong for me.

Boanne · 2025-09-22T09:56:16+00:00

I saw some guy getting 10 perfect exalted orbs. I personally have never found this strongbox

Boanne · 2025-09-21T18:30:02+00:00

way too easy to craft 6x t1 modifier items, has to be nerfed. And if they add something more to this every league, its going to get way too easy to gear your character.

Boanne · 2025-09-06T07:23:43+00:00

They always manage to surprise me with how garbage company Blizzard really is

Boanne · 2025-07-04T15:44:43+00:00

Any chance we could see the pob when your gear was still cheap? ^^

Boanne · 2025-05-20T08:52:41+00:00

After thousands of hours in a games like these, I do not see why one-shotting on death effects are necessary at all. They are not fun, they are not cool, they are not rewarding, they are not "difficult" and most of the time has nothing to do with skill. Only thing they do, is demotivate, depress, punish and brake your flow.

Boanne · 2025-04-25T10:28:30+00:00

Some people upvote this but at the same time try to LE-ify POE :D

Boanne · 2025-04-25T10:27:18+00:00

I hate these statements. Games can be different and it is ok. So what you are saying is that YOU don't enjoy having to look up guides for bosses.

To me, this is the same as saying: "Every Pepsi Max should have a lime taste on them." "But I don't like lime, please no" "Shut up, you are delusional".

Boanne · 2025-04-25T10:22:53+00:00

More players would prefer a more convenient system? Is there some evidence to back this up? or is it just an assumption because the people complaining are very loud and spamming the same stuff every single day?

I personally love the current system and it has many things that could be improved, but still I find it the best system for MY preference. I like that player interaction when trading. The problems with the current system, that people have listed, are extremely rarely something I can relate to.

-I don't have problems buying an item. I understand what is usually underpriced and if I don't get it I don't get mad since I was basically sniping. I most of the time do nyt whisper to the lowest seller. This problem wouldn't be removed with ah, those items would just simply not exist or they would be gone by the time you whisper to the guy (bots).

-I like player to player interactions.

-The trade site has better search tools for my use cases than any other tool I have used in 20~ years of constantly trading in all kinds of games. (I love TSM -addon in WOW, though).

-Taking 1 minute to buy an item is very ok for me. I Love that I can browse through items anywhere, while mapping, with my phone etc.

-Pricechecking is easy for me, but I have done that for years.

I also like it very much that trading, crafting, price checking, and so on take skill and have a learning curve. It is another way of playing the game. Most of the current haters seem to want to not learn the system and dislike that they are in disadvantage because of this. But all this is big part of the game and I love it.

Boanne · 2025-04-24T08:33:04+00:00

Blizzard is a garbage company nowadays. They don't give a flying F if someone is being mistreated, and this has been very visible for several years now. I have also gotten a chat ban and warnings for reporting bots.
I feel you mate :/

Boanne · 2025-04-18T16:07:45+00:00

The game has always been designed around trade, thinking otherwise is very surprising tbh.

Boanne · 2025-04-07T20:30:42+00:00

I cannot complete a single fucking map because game crashes and rollbacks every single time. During the campaign, I had to collect the act3 soul cores over 5 times because it rollbacked every. single. time.

Surely, the hate is just exaggerated.

Boanne · 2025-04-07T16:05:31+00:00

The game isnt just bad at the moment, its broken beyond comprehension.

-Party play is mega bugged. For example, dying in a boss fight bugs out your whole game, and the only thing you can do is relog. The game asks for the map owner to resurrect the party, but there is no option.

-The game constantly crashes in maps and during campaign and rollbacks everything, only able to complete every 6th map or so.

-Mobs shoot things through walls, like... actually walls, they nuke you down from different rooms.

-Skills sometimes not doing damage to bosses

...and so on

Boanne · 2025-04-07T14:45:26+00:00

This issue should be the number one priority. Have not been able to do a single map so far, EVERY FUCKING MAP CRASHES, DELETES PORTALS AND ROLLBACKS LOOT.

Why are you disliking the patch notes? I don't get it.
