f "new" league

no balance of meta, for f's sake, truly boring to play this, so terrible attitude to little things

what were you expecting? its the exact same thing just with that lantern thing added.
there is no reason to play this unless you enjoy starting over

Duhh, it didn't have any development time...it was never going to get a rebalance it was literally "what can we do to give the players something a little difrent asap" and all that was, was to tack on the previous league in some manner...almost no testing and sure as fuck no time for balance or meta changes.

It's mostly just re-launch for streamers. They could've easily just added lantern to the original league without splitting player base between 2 league "modes".

You don't like spamming maps for gold upkeep added with spamming 80+ maps to have a decent chance at crafting one good item? Weird. /s

I hope PoE2 goes away from this awful design. I miss immersion and exploration in my ARPGs.

yea it's bad, they could started endless delve for 1-2 monthes or add some features to this league like mayhem or anything from old events, but they dont care. and the funniest part of "poe 2 will never impact poe 1" (yea surely), it's already impacting, and the fact thats it's just early accesses of poe 2 and not for everybody (like u need spend some money to play this) but everybody will suffer while watching this clown fiesta is kinda questionable decision by ggg as usually. but nothing we can do about it as always :D

It's not about immersion. If you're looking for it check out D&D or D&D-like games. Baldur's Gates 3 fro example. POE is a bout grind, sort of second low-wage job.

each league or event grind whith less and less fps perfect ( shadow off when?)

That "splitting the playerbase" thing sadly turns out to be some serious bs. ;/

We can have both.

Also made the mistake of playing BG3 first week. The bugs destroyed the later end of the game. I'm actually a mod dev for Divinity OS2 and BG3. My DOS2 mod was a full overhaul of the game. For BG3 I'm doing something more story based.

You'd be amazed how player engagement you can get by slowing the game down and having less but more meaningful enemies. There are inherent flaws once enemy density and speed hit a point.
