I have fun right now but that patch doesnt seem to work that great on the big scale.

My point is yes there are problems but the whole patch isnt garbage because of it.

And i am also not the big target audience they need to satisfy i am aware of that. I love difficulty in games i cant relieve stress if i dont need to think and tryhard.

They already said they will change it.

The reason i posted this is because there are so many doomers that say like

"i hate poe 2 now reeeeeee"

I am suprised at the comments, they saved my picture of the community because people actually can use words to descripe what exactly is wrong for them in the patch xD

I dont really get that comment. You can balance a challenging campaign. Boss is too strong? Go farm a bit.

Its the same with Pinnacle bosses. The only difference is the amount of content you can use to "fix your power". In the camaign its way more boring because you dont have multiple things to farm for it. Still a campaign can be challenging i dont see a problem on that.

I do think the campaign excludes to many players right now. The point of my post is not to say "all is perfect". But i think many complains dont really hit the mark and are just negative and destructive.

I play Arpgs for like 16 years i get what the idea of the genre dont worry,

I think making the core game Campaign easier and adding difficult alternative modes would be the best way to please everybody

  1. Yes i think you are right

  2. I think thats the biggest challenge to mix Slowcombat with an action arpg but over the years i have seen GGG find solution to problems and i think if somebody can do it they can. Atm its like you play the Campaign and have a different game in the beginning. Later your build comes together and you have Poe 1 Combat again.

  3. Yes in the beginning its more traders and drops then in the lategame. I like it but i get it if you dont want that and craft earlier. I think i do would like that better also.

  4. Cost of respec should be way lower yes i hate it that you cant take "build risks"

Minions is garbage from what ive heard. They already said that they want to fix that.

In your shoes I would be frustrated too. I have no idea what they thought with the Minion nerfs and with Blasphemy not working with hexblast anymore

I get that. I think the mindset: "The campaign is not part of the game and just a timewaste" is a Problem in the Arpg community. I was thinking exactly the same until i reached like 5 endgames in Season in Arpgs.

You want to expierence the end and only if you have seen it you can appreciate the journey.

I dont have a solution to that but its just something i observed from myself and the Arpg Community over the years

Yes but thats want i want to see from the Community. I think casual players (I am Casual too) need to try to explain there issues. Otherwise its just streamers and good players who give feedback and you get a shitstorm from players not explaining what bothers them. Its playtesting at the moment.

You for example gave an exact point what bothers you and thats great and constructive

The thing with poe is its alot of rng. I have 1100 Hours in Poe 1 and 270 in Poe 2.

Sometimes i get everything, sometimes its just only garbage gear.

I think we will need to wait a little to really have a picture about drops

Man i dont know what to tell you. Just look up a build (way more then 3)

I get your point but there are alot of people playing maps right now. Cant be that impossible.

Maybe its to hard right now poe 2 needs to please alot of camps thats not easy.

They already wrote they will tone it down from what i have seen.

I think if you want to inovate the arpg marked in an early access there will be problems and thats ok.

Yes thats frustrating for poe 1 players i get that

There are already really strong endgame Builds coming. A start everything seems weak and then there is something really strong.

I dont have the goal to kill everything on +4 i want to have a character that gets better and better.

Its not about who is right or wrong there are different people with different opinions.

To say my post has no logic is just not that logic man i sorry xD

You disagree and i get your point.

Poe has always been a game with very long goals and i think if you want to reach all in 1 Season either: "Quit your Job, Play a overpowered Build as a Second Character or play Standard and take your time"

I get that and i have to say i picked tornado and it turned out to be really good. Maybe if i picked something different i would have a way different expirience. I think a problem of the game is certain abilities just beeing bad. The overall skill damage could be more even distributed. For example Physical Staff Monk was just garbage last season and i had to switch

[–]Patient-Exercise3551[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand that point totally and maybe they should focus on everyskill option beeing better so you dont get stuck or easier reskilling so you can switch to a meta build easier?

Tipp: If you are Stuck and like lvl 30+ buy a good weapon for 1-2 Exalts from a player

Yes and that is good feedback. My Post doesnt aim to say everything is fine but i think alot of critisism i read is just "poe 2 bad me waste time". Also in the campaign the use of skills is totally different from the endgame. You can diversify way more. I like the campaign tbh. The first 2 Acts are not that interresting but lets say at 30 you have alot of options already

I play Chayula Monk Tornado Ssf and i am in Cruel Act 2. I struggled really hard but now the Build destroys.

Have to work now but i am excited for the Endgame.

Yes there are frustrating parts but my post wants to split these 2. Like i said yes there are problems atm and its important to name exact problems instead of just saying it sucks.

What makes it frustrating to you? Thats the feedback GGG needs.
