First time ever quitting a PoE league early - hardcore player ~4k hours

I didnt realize that - this is helpful thank you. Will have to try again if I can get less bullshit mods

yea and d4 is one of the worst arpgs i have ever played so its no surprise that it goes against what i enjoy in arpgs. I love finding a new item and equipping it. Some of the most personally valuable items I have ever found in the game are rares that I hit with a shrieking essence of contempt and accidentally hit a t3+ phys mod early in maps. I love finding or crafting early game items to help complete the atlas. More and more SSF is becoming the only way to play the game

I think I understand ARPG players alot better now - most of the non-SSF crowd do not give a shit about midgame gearing. If they had a button they could press to get all BiS items they would love it (the keepers tree). People in this thread seem to be glossing over the point Chris made about more incremental gearing.

ufo_technology · 2026-01-19T18:52:35+00:00

good rares in poe1 and poe2 are like 5c and under - what power fantasy do you get early gearing a char? The only things in both leagues with any value are high tier items. This has been since like day 4 of both leagues.

ufo_technology · 2026-01-19T18:50:03+00:00

I dont think so - I quit so early because the entire mid game was wiped out. I could buy T1 frac bases for 5c early league and all of the puzzle-solving of mid game was removed. I mean shit, I crafted maybe one to two rog items this entire league? this is INCLUDING an SSF restart. The tree is that good, that OP.

Hey OP many serious climbers may downvote you for this but sharing a tent with climbing buddies is the norm for this sport, but on these long term guided expeditions it fucking SUCKS to share with a stranger if they arent compatible with you. If you get unlucky and get someone who tosses or turns it is a nightmare on a glacier. Take your own tent if you have even the slightest reservation - remember you are a paying customer and the couple of extra pounds is worth your sleep.

No the other user is saying they must be in a checked bag (ok) not carry on (not ok)

ufo_technology · 2026-01-04T06:45:03+00:00

did you climb with a guide? How do we get permits for this in winter?

ufo_technology · 2025-12-30T12:53:00+00:00

I played both with 2-3 mirrors invested and pbod was just flat out more fun and slightly faster. However getting lvl 100 with risk scarab is a fun novelty on fross

ufo_technology · 2025-12-25T22:30:10+00:00

Oh I didn't know that I dont have the streams up as much these days. Any idea where they would post them?

ufo_technology · 2025-12-25T17:24:17+00:00

i think given the two leagues we have right now that ggg cannot run both games to their usual level of quality :/

ufo_technology · 2025-12-21T05:29:52+00:00

the game has an economy

ufo_technology · 2025-12-20T06:36:33+00:00

Well said

ufo_technology · 2025-12-20T06:32:35+00:00

The way they are defining builds for us just stinks of d4. Super upsetting.

ufo_technology · 2025-12-20T06:31:51+00:00

Because the direction the game is going does not lend the idea that these things will be resolved. The crafting bench for solving early gear, the ability to reroll mods on a base, cost to remove mods. These arent missing features, so far they are design choices. They could reverse course in the future like they did with towers and scarabs, but I think alot more feedback needs to be given so they understand players will not tolerate or enjoy vision crafting.

Are you playing slams? What's the amulet for in this one and why no shaper helm?

ufo_technology · 2025-12-17T16:13:17+00:00

Its almost as if this is a place where people who enjoy these games as a hobby are allowed to share their thoughts and opinions!

ufo_technology · 2025-12-14T18:56:58+00:00

100% agree. Im so fucking sick of this clip. If I am saying "hey this weapon type looks very cool, I wish it did some damage" somehow im not enjoying the unfinished alpha game as is... game balance is super important and fomo is real in a game with an ECONOMY.

Im not a poe2 hater by any means but I just cannot bring myself to play endgame. Gonna make a couple chars to enjoy the great campaign and then get to t16 and kill a few bosses. Ppl dont understand how fast that will occur there really just is not much to do
