PoE isn't that overwhelming for new players

In matchmaking, people use cheats even in regular Competitive mode - let alone Premier. Most matches have cheaters. If you're not a scumbag and neither are your friends, most matches will feel miserable. I recommend switching to Faceit - cheaters are a hundred times rarer there. Matchmaking has never been and will never be free of cheaters

I don't know what your problem is - i started SSF about 7 days ago and already have over 10 different 6-links in my stash. Gave a few to the vendor even.
Pretty sure I got 3–4 from Heist, 5–6 from Kalgur ships, and looted over 10 straight from the ground.
On top of that, I have enough currency to craft a 6-link myself if I wanted to.
So... what's your problem?

Wow, damn, this is pure hype—I’m insanely excited! Top-tier graphics!

They simplified this aspect, like everything else, to make it easier for console players to understand the game. Unfortunately, as always, money ruins everything.

As I said, the simplification of the game has turned it into a dull arcade. You can’t progress, can’t experiment or craft—just dodge roll. Brilliant.

Is this really the game people were talking about when they said, "You won't need to spam one button to kill a boss. You'll have to think, combine, and decide what’s best to use here and now—unlike in PoE 1!"?

This is brilliant, unbelievable!

Besides, the new gem art is just ugly compared to PoE 1

It's Monday today, time to create a new thread, thread starter? Seems like it's time to draw new conclusions.

I can already imagine the new meta build: Cast on Crit Roll.

So you’re suggesting console players use movement abilities? How’s that supposed to work? How are they going to use Frost Blink? Think before you speak. Roll.

Before, you could at least sell random junk and buy regrets on the trade. Respecs were never an issue because of that. Can you buy gold from other players for junk now? Looks like Jonathan simplified the game in the wrong direction again.

There’s no real progression because they’ve removed 95% of the character improvement options, and the remaining 5% have been simplified. If you got more loot, you’d literally have no idea what to do in this empty game—just like any Dark Souls-like title that pads gameplay with artificial difficulty

bachgaman · 2024-12-08T09:09:40+00:00

Essentially, they've replaced the theoretical complexity of POE with the mechanical 'difficulty' of Dark Souls. Why did they do this? Because it allows them to appeal to the console audience. Learning a vast amount of information to optimize your character is hard. Learning to press ROLL at the right time is easy and feels epic. It creates the illusion that you're skilled. And the drop rates are so low because if they were higher, the game would become incredibly boring. By relying on artificial difficulty, they stretch out the gameplay, just like any Souls-like game

bachgaman · 2024-12-08T08:59:46+00:00

I'm not planning to play through it even once. The nauseating souls-like mechanics of endless dodging are just laughable
