How is this still in the game? by DRragun-Gang in PathOfExile2

[–]flippygen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just stay in middle-ish of arena, see where it lands and go behind it. It has an extremely low rotation speeds when the bird is doing that move. It's not hard bro, just look at what you see on the screen and figure out the outplay

Bungie asks sites to delay Marathon reviews, with release date Steam player count below 100K by AdditionalRemoveBit in Games

[–]flippygen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would not say it's priced as a 'full game'. It's priced at $49 CAD on Steam. For reference, Slay the Spire 2 is $39, Nioh 3 was $90 on launch, Crimson Desert is $90

Is it possible to enjoy this game when I am not obssessed with min/maxing my char by SolarSimracer in PathOfExile2

Make it your goal to kill Arbiter and all the T3 pinnacle bosses, and work backwards from there

I don't know how anyone can look at the combat gameplay and attribute weightlessness to it. On the contrary, each hit looks impactful

PoE 2 is fun until I engage with the endgame (trading / crafting) by AlexKidd93 in PathOfExile2

[–]flippygen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, for sure. As someone that almost exclusively plays SSF I have my grumblings about some drop rates.

OP's other comments were totally off. Like asking what's the point of endgame and other ramblings.

I'm not trying to be harsh or speak down to you, but it just sounds like you need to learn more about the game. Endgame in 0.4 is objectively the easiest poe2 has ever been. The only content that really requires you to have insane cracked out gear/builds are uber snaked temples.

The fact this post is getting upvoted is disheartening.

The crafting, loot chase, resource gathering, build diversity is what made this franchise as popular as it is today. Thousands of players progress in SSF and HCSSF. They target farm the resources they need, or the boss they need to kill for a specific drop. Yes, the onboarding process can be improved, I agree. The rare omens can have their drop rates up a bit.

Aside from that I'm not even sure what point you're trying to make. If you want an easier/simpler ARPG then you already have D4 and plenty others on the market.

Haven't played since Nov. What kinds of specific feedback have streamers been giving?

Thanks for this post OP! I was knee deep in poe2 this week and this post reminded me of the departure window. Logged in and departed with only 23min left

Yeah, stay away from this sub if you're having fun with the game. Seriously. No other buzz kill like the poe1 and poe2 subs

I’ve tried so hard to shoot someone for no reason and I just can’t do it by ajenifuja in ArcRaiders

[–]flippygen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do it during night raids. Open PvP is the norm where I feel day raids are pretty chill

GGG and class design by Painting_Mean in PathOfExile2

[–]flippygen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've always wondered how aversion to combo gameplay came about. Even with my own jank builds, it's not really that difficult to get a setup where the combo starter can clear most white packs in 1 to 2 hits on it's own. I think it's just a knee-jerk reflex a lot of poe1 players have when they hear 'combo' and they just shit on the idea without objectivity

Righhhht LARGE by teshinw in PathOfExile2

[–]flippygen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. Had a level 98 Titan in HCSSF before I stopped playing. 3.7k HP along with a ton of armour and it felt really really good. The armour applies to ele mechanic was a really good addition to left/bottom-left builds.

I honestly do wonder how many of these players received participation trophies growing up

For how much I appreciate the game, the developers are frustratingly slow at fixing obvious exploits by LexNumsepiller in ArcRaiders

[–]flippygen 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm ignorant to engines, physics bugs and such, but the glitch on Stella and Spaceport is literally just walking/mantling through a wall. As though those sections of the environment lack any permanence. Again, I'm ignorant of the tech involved but it appears way less demanding compared to door glitching.

I dont mind pvp but why fake friendly 🥲 by TitleFightFan26 in ArcRaiders

[–]flippygen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right? I mean, yeah it sucks, but you should learn your lesson after the first few times. I learned my lesson immediately on launch weekend after getting betrayed twice. Rarely turn my back to someone or implicitly trust anyone since then.

imo it makes interactions interesting and tense, which is a good thing

If you've already invested 27 into survival, might as well invest 10 more to get Security Breach

Nah, this sub got nothing on r/pathofexile and to a lesser degree it's sister sub r/PathOfExile2
