Five Weeks into 0.2.0, POE2 is Down 93.2% Players All Time & 83.9% from Patch Launch
" Some build have a clear about as effective as LS and are better for bossing. I've annihilated every boss in my path playing glacial bolt, the build cost me 1ex per piece of stuff... The problem with PoE 2 isn't the meta, it's just that this game is experiencing an identity crisis by trying to please everyone when it pleases no-one. The endgame is meaningless and made me stop playing after 100 hours, even though it's certainly what people enjoy most and what keeps them playing PoE 1 for thousands of hours... please remove the current endgame and replace it with content that has a real direction, real meaning and that gives the feeling of a less random progression. |

I really dont understand these posts. Its early access still. Its version 0.2 still so lets say 20% of everything has been implemented. I really dont understand why anyone complains?
If you have someone build a house for you, the roof is not done but you insist of moving in then complaining that it rains inside. Telling the builder how this house will never be livable or functional. <<< This is what youre doing now and i dont understand how you can be this smooth brained. GGG, keep going bros. |

" Why is that so hard to understand that some people complain? To keep with your own metaphor, if you see the builder use toiletpaper rolls as pillars for the roof, or old newspapers as insulation for electric wiring, would you just stand there and accept it, because the house is not yet finished, so it's "too early to complain"? I agree that doom and gloom threads serve no purpose, but pretending every form of criticism is "complaining" is just as "smooth brained". 最後に dreamstate42#3955 が 2025/05/21 6:30:06 に編集

I just reinstalled it again, streamed it for about 1.5 hours, then quit again in the new league.
Nothing has changed, everything still the same, I don't want to play anymore. Skills still hardly do any damage early on, which is on purpose so you can really take in that slow progress grind where you drag your ass across the ground trying to get anything done. Still the same damage sponge normal enemies. Still the same damage sponge bosses. Still the same tiny damage increase curve, still the constant dodge fest. Nah man, this game is never going to be good for me, fuck this GGG, you really took a failsafe recipe of gacha-style loot collecting and character building and made it retarded. Good Job. |

" Funny While I have LS equipped it is a secondary tool for me, most my work is done by spear field and rake. LS is there to fast clean straggler enemies that are not tightly packed. LS itself is not badly made skill, it is a problem with how it scales, specially alongside frenzy charges (gors from 8 to 80) |

" Look, I’ve made plenty of threads and posts outlining what’s wrong. The main issue isn’t that it’s “early access” — it’s the wrong direction and a full-blown identity crisis. Let’s talk about that direction for a second: • They gutted all endgame content. There’s now no real reason to farm uber endgame — because every high-end item got massively overnerfed. As a result, the game has about four times less meaningful content than it did just one major patch ago. • Before patch 0.2, the game had a decent variety of viable builds. Now, easily 80% of classes are gimmicks that can’t even complete endgame content. • Players have been repeating the same core feedback: remove magic drop modifiers from gear and fix the drop rate relative to difficulty. GGG’s response? Just nerf the loot even further. So yeah, keep going ggg. Make the game worse every major content update. So no, the issue was never the lack of content — everyone understands this is early access. The real problem is that the content that’s already implemented is broken, and GGG keeps making it worse with every patch.

" I don't even know what to say anymore. POE2 is already in a state of irrelevance. The POE1 players have been alienated. The POE1 streamers have been alienated. No friends or Guild Members play POE1 or POE2, not playing the former because it hasn't been updated in almost year, not playing the latter because it's terrible. With all of this, I'm at a point where I no longer care about POE2. Going forward, all the POE2 fanboys that tell me to return to POE1 for not liking POE2 are going to have to fund GGG. I'm done funding them. My vision for what POE is, is no longer what GGG's vision of POE is. |

" True, solid. |

" This is exactly why i said they need to go back to the drawing board. Back to the original desire to make a sequel and make a sequel. Will that alienate the "I want dark souls in POE" crowd. Yep. Who cares? They arent a big enough player base to make the game viable. I love Dark Souls and NRFTW and Expedition 33. These are all completely incompatible games. Mixing them is just rediculous. Poeple play them for very different reasons in very different moods. Dear GGG: Go back to what Diablo THOUGHT you were doing and what scared them enough to make punchy posts. DROP patch 0.3.0 ... just don't do it. Announce you are having a rethink and then build a sequel. [Removed by Support] In the same re-think announcement, announce 3.26 and that you have put significant staff back on POE1. 最後に Yrone_GGG#9576 が 2025/05/21 12:57:17 に編集
