POLL: Did Exilecon increase or decrease your overall hype for POE and POE 2?

Neutral. Already the beta is about a year from now. Not counting my dragons before they hatch.
Completely obliterated any hype I had for PoE2 and PoE1 as well.

They have quadrupled down on all the things I dislike about PoE1 and ramped them up to 13 in PoE2.

No idea what happened to PoE2 will fix everything.

Well I suppose if I no longer play PoE1 or PoE2 then it does fix everything in a way.
Ascension tied to Lab is the worst thing GGG has done...apart from GGG's philosophy on Trading. Oh and Gambling Loot boxes. And selling out to tencent.

I used to love GGG. I supported to ensure GGG remained independent, now I just wish I could get my money back. -_-
Drastically decreased, them being separate games has taken the wind out of the sails for me, as it sits I'm not sure I can get into poe 2 at all.
Just a lowly standard player. May RNGesus be with you.
Interested, but:

I need to see endgame and play it myself to know.
Biggest compliments for my crafted items - "bs, they must have been RMT'ed"

I'm disabled, I have rare case of semperduravera, so I can write things that may look rude, but it is because of disability - I'm forced to tell truth using words you may not like.
Increased for POE1 and POE2.
It probably decreased my hype. But to me, it seemed like they tried their best to do so, with what they showed, and how they showed it. A LOT of PoE 1 players like fast paced gameplay and the endgame. Not only did they not show any of that (probably because it isn't done yet), but they went out of their way to show everything as slow as possible.

I'm on the fence here, until we get some endgame footage, or at least some 'geared' footage.
Sometimes, just sometimes, you should really consider adapting to the world, instead of demanding that the world adapts to you.
I should clarify my post a little.

On finding out it was being split into seperate games, I was pretty neutral overall.

Seeing PoE2 gameplay and what it will be bringing, I was super hyped.

Finding out we won't get to experience it for at least another year, completely deflated my excitement for the game.
Impression exilecon

Game looks, slow, boring, no dmg.
epic fail.

Visually stunning.

poe2 trailer showcase one shot dmg that exilecon failed to do as it was tuned to show animations, skills etc..but doing so made the game look, horrible boringly bad
Was looking forward to POE2 before. Still looking forward to POE2 afterward. No increase in hype, because no hype.
Right now,for POE2 as it was presented, it has decreased for me. I'm not really into boss fights, so the focus on bosses is lost to me. Perhaps because I'm a bit older with slower reaction times and less coordination, I'm also not too keen on using multiple skills in conjunction with the increased emphasis on using life and mana flasks. The rolling around during combat is also something I'm not looking forward to. These factors, as far as I'm concerned, will make replaying the campaign even more of a slog then the present one.

I'll still try it and give it good shot in hopes of being pleasantly surprised. There is still a long time of development ahead and there is still lots to be revealed. I'm hoping that once we have more information, I might find something that makes me a little bit more excited about POE2 than I am now.
