Its actually insane how much better poe 1 is.

I'll have to look into this, but this is also precisely what I mean. On the surface it seems so simple, but I sometimes draw a blank on what I already used/did/said/whatever (trust me, it's incredibly annoying), so even a simple sequence can throw me off if the chain becomes too long. On the contrary, my long term memory is excellent and I pick up things very quickly. Doctors are at a loss. I've been told it could be early signs of dementia, but that does not explain my excellent long term memory.

I'd ask for Maven's Memory Game to be dumbed down to the short one she does (I can handle that one), but GGG (realistically) won't care enough to change it. I can literally deal with everything else in the fight just fine. It annoys me a lot, because it's like a barrier I cannot cross and it feels cheap when you know it's not your fault.

Agreed, I think that a great majority of the problems are systemic at a bedrock level in PoE2. I feel as if almost every system is a step backwards and not forwards. The simplistic take on POE makes it feel for me to be a nonstarter - PoE2 feels way more Diablo 3 or 4 than Path Of Exile.
just dropping by to say love POE2 hope they can make the endgame better so its not just POE1button with less stuff to do.
Pandering to players who don't want consequences for their mistakes is a perfect description of what went fundamentally wrong with D3 and 4.
If they wanted mindless mobile game time waster gameplay they sure did make some perplexing choices and marketing statements for 6 fucking years.

It's even worse already because you don't use blink, vaal and your main skill anymore. Now you have one auto attack button and clear 3 screens away.

Your point?


but you dont even play poe..since 2013 you made 4 characters?


THIS is what GGG needs to realize. People supporting POE2 do not play video games or buy mtx lol.

Yeah I don't get the "it's not one button" take either. Those people always put like a week into POE leagues, and in this case, he's wrong. Builds are still "spark" or "Gas arrow". Auto attack is a build and not a meme... It's a super effective way to play and it makes me so confused when people ignore this fact about POE2. The only real differences are bad movement speed, bad loot, no crafting, less control over your end game mapping, and horrendous layouts are the norm.

How can we possibly disprove such a specific made up assertion? Oh I know; I buy MTX and I love POE2 so there you go, your argument has been blown up.

I honestly can't tell if you're making an absurd joke so if I accidentally took your post more seriously than it was intended my bad.

You can cheese it with the grace period though, right?

You get that spark etc. isn't the endgame balance they've professed to want right? I mean whats the point of nerfing armour explosion in week 1 if they aren't also going to nerf the other silly 1button-y things? All that design space and combat balancing... only for the main part of the game to become a clown fiesta?

What a disaster that would be. But there's the ideal or target and there's what GGG manages to actually hit. Intention vs execution.

I think POE2 can be the greatest ARPG ever made based on how it plays outside of the dumb and busted stuff. Unless they let it devolve into the same space ship shooter that POE1 became.

lol, space ship shooter huh ... or, is it really just a hack n slash. Wtf is with this space shooter bullshit. Its exactly a hack n slash, which is what it set out to be, heavily inspired by d2 in its origin. It does that, very well, in fact for so many years now, very well, clearly... based on everyones 24+ spamming fucking supporter pictures in single line posts, like 'first'.

I havent seen one fucking spaceship anywhere, but hey, lets make up dumb names / catch phrases, or better yet, parrot everyone else doing it, its the cool new thing.
GGG - Why you no?
