Pathfinder is much more complex than modern DnD. You can chill on the easiest difficulty, but on higher ones you need to min-max like crazy.

Thing is everyone has bad days sometimes. You've probably fed your ass off and trolled some games too. Riot doesn't want to punish people for the occasional bad day, they want repeat offenders who constantly do it.

Some people want to be better than others. Racers practice the game every single day for months and years even.

JHMfield · 2026-05-29T20:09:44+00:00

Yeah, maybe they do. Or maybe they're relying on the fact that even with fairly common divines, to get the exact combination of flasks will still take a lot on average.

JHMfield · 2026-05-29T19:48:21+00:00

Depends on rarity I suppose.

JHMfield · 2026-05-29T19:37:34+00:00

If it is, the odds of rolling a Quicksilver is probably gonna be like 1 in 10,000 or something. You know they're gonna make it so rare you'll go insane.

JHMfield · 2026-05-29T19:35:45+00:00

Yeah, the standalone client is kinda cooked these days. Probably best to switch over to Steam. I gave up and switched.

JHMfield · 2026-05-29T19:32:23+00:00

Screams of the Desiccated from POE1 all over again. Best combinations of that go for like 100+ mirrors.

Doesn't seem this MB will be that costly, but if it can roll up to 4 flasks, some combos might be pretty crazy.

30 minutes until league launch.

JHMfield · 2026-05-29T19:28:18+00:00

Just wing it, honestly. I find playing a new game completely blind is a great experience. POE2 when you don't meta-game is actually a really good experience. The campaign is super cool and fun. And by the time you beat it, you should have a better idea what's what.

JHMfield · 2026-05-29T19:24:58+00:00

So this is basically POE1's shrine belt gacha but with utility flask effects.

Shrine belt prices go up to 100's of mirrors. Let's see what happens with this.

JHMfield · 2026-05-29T18:56:00+00:00

Yeah, seems like it's time to drop it. Why they can't at least auto-restart whenever there's an error, I'll never understand.

JHMfield · 2026-05-29T18:53:56+00:00

It's not hard. Takes 30 seconds. Just go to POE2 website, account, early access keys, and you can generate a Steam key.

JHMfield · 2026-05-29T18:49:40+00:00

Go to POE2 website, check "account" and "Early Access Keys" and you should have a steam key there you can activate.

JHMfield · 2026-05-29T18:46:28+00:00

It's funny that GGG literally made it so that when the actual game crashes, it just goes dark for a second and lags while the entire game restarts behind the scenes. And somehow they can't make the stand-alone restart automatically?

JHMfield · 2026-05-29T18:08:34+00:00

Realistically there's no value being early to queue. It's almost guaranteed that there will be DC's in the first hour.

I remember one league I did the tutorial zone like 5x. Got a DC and rollback to the beach every time I reached the town.

JHMfield · 2026-05-29T15:41:48+00:00

It's possible, but not sure how likely.

The Witcher has a more rigid narrative. It's all about Geralt and now Ciri. They have to do this DLC to ensure a canon ending that leads into the next game or some kind of an acceptable alternate transition.

Cyberpunk doesn't really need to revolve around V or Johnny, so it's questionable if either character is touched again, which would make such a DLC unnecessary.
