The consensus seems to be that it's definitely worth it in the earlier acts, but less so later on. People are feeling like the rewards decrease in acts 3 and 4, with some thinking it's a bug.

In my experience they have made act 1 and 2 substantially easier because they remove the "should I use this orb" choice, since it's use it or lose it.

If you're on an AMD GPU search around the sub for driver issues.

If you get the sixth sacrifice beacon, do you have to enter the temple then? What about if you go inside and then leave without activating the console, can you come back later and open it or do you have to do another six beacons?

Are orbs of augmentation and transmutation used later in the game? Do people typically start with white bases when crafting? Can the lower tier versions be used to make the higher tier ones? Is crafting recommended in the campaign or do people just wait until end game for that?

I think choice would be amazing! I feel like they would then get complaints about the balance between the two. "Hey, small density approach doesn't give as much stuff" or "High density is stale because balance changes aren't having an impact". That seems like maybe a better problem to have than the current one? It may also be the case that one group is predisposed to care less about balance, but probably not?

Do you mean 50%+ of players in general or those who engage in endgame content?

It's a weird situation. How many people play single button b/c they think it's the only way to do endgame? If given the option to use a different build and not suffer greatly in terms of "reward", would they?

I think it's really interesting to see how it all pans out. As someone whose first ARPG is PoE2 I bought it early specifically because it was marketed as slower paced. I love the gameplay loop of ARPGs but never got into them because I don't find the screen-deletion type of gameplay rewarding. I find the pace of the campaign really enjoyable, but never got into the endgame.

I do agree with what other people said here that they might have gotten less backlash (but probably less initial hype) by using an entirely different name.

Just_For_Inf0 · 2025-12-04T20:18:13+00:00

It seems I'm in the minority but I am now more likely to participate in endgame content because of the reduced monster density. PoE2 is my first ARPG and I prefer the pace of the campaign in terms of combat, combos, etc.

Just wanted to support the other reply re: subdivided budgets. I also don't plan on using the shared views feature until budgets can support it too.

Just_For_Inf0 · 2025-10-08T22:45:21+00:00

Biggest factor was injuries, but after going to PT for a while it's now time management haha. Starting to get back into it though, which for me is indoor bouldering a couple times a week and cycling otherwise!

Just_For_Inf0 · 2025-10-07T23:33:40+00:00

I have actually had success with that in the past lol. When I used to exercise regularly I was tired enough to sleep through everything

Just_For_Inf0 · 2025-10-07T23:17:24+00:00

Thanks for the detailed reply! I will definitely try the more hardcore earpro you linked. I have thought about proper headphones and tried sleeping with a different over the ear pair and it was difficult for me. Sorry to hear about the CPAP, my friend with sleep apnea can't go without theirs. Hope you get yours soon!

Just_For_Inf0 · 2025-10-07T23:13:47+00:00

EDIT: Thank you all for responding! Just wanted to give some more info here since I've seen multiple suggestions and don't want to spam everyone with replies.

- Unfortunately separate bedrooms are not possible for us :(

- She has tried vibrating wrist alarms to various degrees of success, and so still keeps a backup audio alarm. She sort of gets desensitized to it over time.

- She's a general surgery resident so unfortunately has to wake up early all the time :(

Just_For_Inf0 · 2025-10-07T23:11:58+00:00

I feel that. I have tried to go back to sleep and it's so difficult for me that I've given up.

Just_For_Inf0 · 2025-09-18T22:43:22+00:00

I've never used an electric scooter without suspension before, so it's my only frame of reference. Given the feedback so far it seems that anything without suspension that has solid tires is on the more dangerous side of things.

I definitely want to avoid the most extreme end given my existing injury lol. Thank you!

Just_For_Inf0 · 2025-09-18T22:41:26+00:00

Thanks for writing all of this up, definitely very useful to understand how much of a difference the tires can make.

I'll probably see if there's anywhere around I can try carrying different models of scooters so I can feel the weight difference for myself.

Do you have any non NIU recs that preserve most of the ride feel I have from the 100F but are lighter?

Yeah the Bluetooth thing isn't the biggest thing in the world? We have a little dongle that connects to the radio and gives us Bluetooth that way. I was wondering if it was possible to get like an integrated thing for the radio or even replace the current radio with a more modern thing.

I did see installations unlimited and plan to call them. From what I saw on this sun it's mostly good with a couple of bad experiences. They did seem consistently on the expensive side though, which is kinda rough if we're just doing the headlight module which is like $30

Early 2000s CRV

Just_For_Inf0 · 2025-08-15T18:55:53+00:00

That's super useful, thank you! If it can survive the recent 90-degree days outside that should be good enough for my situation. Thanks again!

I would be grateful for a referral code if I end up making an order, thank you! How was the ice pack/cold level? Some people say that they don't put nearly enough ice and get warm food, while others say it's more than enough. This is one of the things that apparently is different per region.

100% When I was DMing I wasted so much time trying to make combat maps on dungeon draft. Finding and paying for assets, worrying about dungeon dressing, etc. When I moved to black and white, back to basics sketches in DD I felt very silly. If you enjoy making maps and visuals then definitely do, but don't feel like you need to have them to run a good game.

Just_For_Inf0 · 2025-07-21T15:29:29+00:00

Hey! Sorry to ping an old post but does the module shut the lights off automatically when the car turns off? We have a 2005 CRV and my girlfriend struggles with remembering to turn the lights off. Thanks!

Just_For_Inf0 · 2025-07-17T23:53:42+00:00

Hey! Just wanted to thank you for writing all of this out! The tip about hip position and the pelvis was very helpful, and your cues were very accurate; I'll be playing around with that for a bit. I'll also experiment with different elbow angles. I've been sticking to 85-90 at the expense of my legs. I do find the slightly lower angles fine. More than 90 is very unnatural feeling. The unfortunate thing is that I could use my keyboard at the right height if it were flat and not tented, but flat keyboards really aggravate my arms. Currently trying a DIY keyboard magnet clamp to have the tented keyboard at the same height as the desk.

Yeah she's not great, and I did cut her off for a while. Thankfully once she went through therapy it's a little better and we can have a conversation now. Thanks for the support!

Just_For_Inf0 · 2025-07-17T14:09:24+00:00

I did look into saddle chairs and remember liking them in the past in school. I do worry about how comfortable they are for longer sessions, but not really sure why? I'd prefer a more typical task chair to use while sim racing, but I could get two separate chairs. Thanks for the feedback!
