It was fun for a little while but once I beat Act 3 I never wanted to touch the game again it was such a a slog. I'll patiently wait for the already infinitely more fun Titan Quest 2 to release.

poe2 was about instantly killing everything with one button since 0.1. It's even easier to do so than it was in poe1. The only difference is that you have to hold W for a few seconds in between screen explosions.

Bingo. Bald Fucking Retards "TEH VISION"™ is just content bloat instead of a tight cohesive one-and-done ARPG experience like Diablo 2.

I'm gonna stop you right there, Chief. Nobody but Gran Autismos played past Normal mode and Normal Mode was 20 hours maximum.

The fact PoE2's freeweekend took me 12 hours to complete act 1 is not a good thing.

They don't know what to do with it.
If they just make it PoE 2 in terms of "literally path of exile and the meta there, but again" then there's no point making a PoE 2
but on the other hand, falling for the dark souls
>meaningful combat
meme and making every common enemy take 5 seconds to beat falls flat when there's 5,000 of them on each map and they're all completely useless trash mobs
But they keep getting massively conflicting feedback at all times and as a result have no concrete direction for the game

It's not fun and inconvenient to play.
If you have to download a loot filter from sketchy serbian website outside the game, especially on console when your main action button, item pick and contextual action are all the same button, you have a terribly designed game.
Loot salvage needed to just be done by the player or inventory size needs to be abolished, there's nothing fun about going back to town every 10 minutes.

A handful of years ago somebody at GGG decided that every single good thing about poe1 is actually a problem that needs to be fixed and that became the core design philosophy of poe2. In an extremely rare moment of clarity they realized that destroying the game that people actually like would be really bad for the company so they split them into two games. They were obviously planning on making everyone move over to poe2 but it became obvious that a sizeable portion of their existing base would rather just quit than spend money on that garbage so they essentially got cucked into continuing to work on poe1.

The game is fine but the whole combo thing gets kinda boring after a while. I much prefer the PoE1 style where you typically use one skill to do most of the work. Using skills in PoE1 feels better in general. There's so much built-in delay in bunch of PoE2 skills.

Why do you need the min maxed gear right away? Nothing wrong with getting some cheap gear for the meanwhile to do maps fast. Hell you could go make a decent crossbow right now to use galvanic shards, should at most cost like a div or two if you buy a meh magic base with omens and essences to use

I think you both are overestimating the gear you need, heck you can do fine with just a good weapon. The most expensive omen you would need is the one that force a suffix to be replaced when using a perfect essence, your weapon could be expensive too depending on how good you want the phys% to be but otherwise it was pretty cheap 3 days ago when I made a crossbow so maybe now it’s more expensive then I realized

They forgot to balance the early game since GGG has been conditioned to only give a shit about mapping since that's the only thing you do in POE1. Slow animations, long combos, swarms of enemies, and for some reason they reverted the dodge roll character size bug from 2.0, making it an actual chore to get through the first 2 acts, let alone on an off-meta character. Once you're in act 3, the game actually opens up and you start breezing your way to maps, but at that point most players have left.
