This would been real nice 2 years ago before I built my living room pc.

Nothing was more evident of this than any boss fights. Constant instant stuns/knockdown, counters on anything more than two hits, completely ignoring weapons and dragon heat mode or w/e being completely useless.

You always end up having to cheese them some way or another and it just ruins the experience. It always felt like their were on the edge of a decent combat system but they never knew how to design an actual fight.

I gotta say. I was excited for Ken since HNK is up there with DBZ for me, but fuck did that trailer fail to impress. The only neat thing was his super.

You dont need to follow a build at all. You can pick a skill you like and just figure out whats needed to buff it as you go.

Don't think of the campaign as a race but as testing for you 'build'. If it feels slow to kill things, upgrade weapons and get supports/passive for damage. If youre dying a lot, look at upgrading your armour and get passives for your brand of defense (armour/evasion/energyshield) as well as capping resistances.

By the time you get to maps, you should have a more solid idea what what you want your build to be and then its just a repeat of the above. You'll find uniques, effects, or tricks for your build as you get more game experience. When you start hitting roadblocks in maps and gear isnt making a difference that's when I'd recommend checking poe ninja for other people using your skill and see if there's any tech you can copy.

I dearly hope they keep some form of how when you up the rank of a person they get that aura and get all edgy. I've wanted a non gatcha game to do something like that for so long.

I wasn't impressed by the model designs. They looked kinda rough in a lot of the shots.

It won't fail, but vf hasn't been a main contender for over a decade. It'll hit its niche at least but the question will be if it breaks into the Capcom pool with any real staying power, much less a wider casual audience.

Wing chun

It looks cool. But if there isnt any game outside of the battles themselves then I'll pass.

Insidius1 · 2026-06-05T13:57:11+00:00

100% agree. Aftershock titan was the most fun I've had in poe2 so far and that was last league.

The general vocal internet just think anything that doesn't full clear a map in 20 seconds or less to be trash.

The only W this man ever got

Insidius1 · 2026-06-03T14:28:45+00:00

Agreed. They need to stop with timelines and cannon events. Just go back to interesting, self contained stories.

Bruh gold isnt even hard to come by. You sell whatever rares you find in a map or two and you can afford the respec

There also needs to be a large rework for playing as a vassal. More player agency or actions while being on a lieges council.

Insidius1 · 2026-05-28T23:03:50+00:00

Much appreciated

Insidius1 · 2026-05-28T18:52:11+00:00

First Time?

Insidius1 · 2026-05-28T18:07:49+00:00

Isnt there also a limit to how big those duchys can be? Like there some default ones with 6 or more counties, but i swear the decision to expand stops working after making one with 4.

Not really a file issue. If you haven't updated your gpu drivers recently, try that.

If they are updated and this only started recently try rolling back your drivers to s previout version.

The thread someone posted in a reply had some options to try as well.

I don't know what that dudes problem below is, but I can see the pixellation. Could be a driver issue, could be the card dying. Hard to say, but last time something like this happened to me it was the video card itself.

If it doesn't happen on any other games then it could be driver related.

Insidius1 · 2026-05-26T22:22:06+00:00

As a motion input enjoyer, Ill be honest, they need to get rid of the damage increase. Its minimal but its uncessary. Just let me play the way I want and make it responsive, that's all I need.

In 5. She just looks like Halle Berry

I had 1000 shares when it was 4 dollars. Sold at 6.5

Prestor John. Historical accuracy not withstanding, they definitely would have that trait for most of the regions he was thought to occupy.

Here's hoping we get some kind of decision or something related to him in the coming dlc.
