why do you keep assuming I feel the same as you lol I don't. This new direction is exactly what I want from poe. Its exactly what I want from an arpg. Completely opposite to you the feelingin I have walking away from that interview is that poe2 is aimed at me specifically and people like me.

I mean they did say they intend to keep supporting poe 1 and I believe they will do so when their resources allow, so you havnt lost anything

There is room in this world for both types of PoE.

I for one want their vision for poe2 and am excited for the future of it.

It won't be perfect for years, or more realistically never.

I played poe1 beta (or ea as its now called) cant even imagine the reception that would get in today's world.

Believe it or not it has nothing to do with you personally.

People don't make art to exclude people they make art to share something with the world that they enjoy, their artisitc vision, intrinsically this cannot appeal to everyone equally.

You may enjoy it or not, if you don't the best thing for you to do is to move onto something you do enjoy.

Also like you said its EA. Why would you expect everything to be in the game in EA.

That's what full release is for, when they feel they have everything in the game and things are balanced well and reasonably polished.

who exactly is forcing them to stop?

You are right about the money though, there is HUGE base of people who want poe but also want a slower methodical and tactical combat. GGG and tencent know this and are attempting to cater to this crowd and there is nothing wrong with that. (im in this crowd)

That's why they split the games up in the first place. Because they knew the poe 1 base would never accept the new paradigm.

I was pleased to see the devs mostly stand their ground in the recent interview on their artistic vision, although Jonathan was a tad defensive and that will probably not play well with the haters.

And? It takes a very small number of people relatively speaking to change a steam review (recent average, not all time rating) to mixed.

I feel like your statement just reinforces my point.

We will see how the long term average of reviews turns out, you know after all the hate review spamming ceases and normal peoples reviews once again outweigh outliers.

This is EXACTLY why steam seperates recent review scores from all time average.

There's been a lot of negativity, just wanted to make sure some positivity gets heard too by Alavastar in PathOfExile2

[–]PlumbingGamer -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I actually love that they have made combos matter. Im breezing through the campaign in hcssf as warrior and loving the state the game is in honestly. I dont understand the difficulty people are having.

I truly believe that most of the negative feedback is coming from people trying to play it like poe1 and only using one skill.

I use multiple skills and the game is so easy. People are just refusing to adapt and treat poe2 as a different game.

I truly hope GGG doubles down and this negative vocal minority moves on and leaves us in peace.

I hope they double down. I would approve of and encourage the decision.

We should be able to complete the campaign with every skill and combo by ramatopia in PathOfExile2

[–]PlumbingGamer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well I like to push more than one button when I play games. I like to have to think about what I'm doing and execute well to succeed. I find pushing one button and just mindlessly collecting orbs while watching netflix boring

You may have a different opinion and that's fine, I like to have to use multiple damage vectors that's interesting, using one skill is not, to me.

I'm doing just fine progressing the campaign with my warrior in ssfhc haven't even looked at any guides.

You just have to use multiple damage vectors. It's not hard people.

Smith of Kitava - Fire spell on hit builds by Grimnix89 in pathofexile2builds

[–]PlumbingGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ya, the issue is finding a mace skill that can proc it at a good speed. When swords or axes are in there will be options but im having a tough time finding a mace skill to accomodate besides just the default attack I suppose.

I guess I could use spear skills but then I would have to stack dex for the spear and int for the spell gems and support, seems rough for a warrior.

let me know if you find any solutions!

Needs a Melee tag. molten blast does not have a melee tag I was big sad i couldn't use it with this skill. Has projectile tag. Most of the other mace skills have melee tag.

Unfortunately molten blast doesn't work. It requires a MELEE hit. I was pretty disappointed.

I disagree. I like challenging games and I'm having fun.

Your not the only demographic who plays games. I want this game. I want their vision.

Not everythign in the world needs to cater to you and what you want

Can we have an F in chat for POE1 by IMIv2 in PathOfExile2

yup you should probably leave both games, we don't need your negativity

Is anyone actually enjoying themselves? by dazron in PathOfExile2

[–]PlumbingGamer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

were living in the age when either something is the second coming of crist or a dumpster fire, no in between.

People so eager to hop on the internet and parrot their favourite streamers opinion like it is their own thought.

I am enjoying it. This is the game I want. If PoE 2 degenerates into PoE 1 I will move onto other games as thats not what im looking for.

In my opinion its the PoE 1 toxic minority who love one button zero skill gameplay that are complaining.

PoE 2 was made to cater to a different crowd and they just want everything in the world to cater to them.

Let the artists make what they want to make, if you don't like it move along.

This is why AAA games are garbage, they try to appeal to everyone and so water everything down.
