Neither game is nearly fun enough to ignore all the feedback regarding unskippable campaigns.

hell, I'd be happy with a simple handicap XP boost for alts up until they reach the level of your main/highest character. even just 10% would be enough.

that would make getting through the campaign again and again at least slightly faster and more bearable and wouldn't require any changes or wholesale bypassing of the campaign such as what people here are suggesting.

Twinking accomplishes this for me. I throw 20c and get my new char decked out in gear that makes the campaign zoom by.

Just let me in the god damn game!!

Campaign skips would be bad for the game, but an alternative way of leveling your second+ characters in a certain league would be awesome.

Yes you can use twink gear and speedrun it, but it's not the time of leveling that makes it boring to create more characters, it's doing the same campaign you've done days ago.

Just make it so you have to do the campaign every league for your first character, but the characters you create after your first one (if your first one finishes the campaign), you have an alternative method of leveling like sanctum, delve, "campaign" maps, anything, even if it means it would take longer than campaign with twink gear I would do it without second thought.

Neither game is nearly fun enough

FOR YOU

The campaign in PoE1 is way longer than 25h for a NEW player. I don't know a single person who wants campaign skip.
Personally, I enjoy going through it every league and if I want to make a new character it literally takes like 2h to finish the campaign with leveling uniques. It literally doesn't need a campaign skip, it's part of the game. What do you want? To get lvl 90 character, with gear and full stash of divines?

They could introduce alternative way of leveling an alt if you completed the campaign on the main character each league.Like a map scaling to your level or something. But if I think about it, it's pointless. I'd rather do the campaign than grind maps from lvl 1 to 70 or whatever.

Campaign skip where you just get lvlXX character with gear or without it is unacceptable solution. Especially in PoE2 where you get power by killing campaign bosses, but even in PoE1 you get passive points.

I try , I really try.. but I do not get why people are so averse to playign the campaign? why is it so hard to consider that just as the initial maps of your atlas? IF you think early cotnent is boring.. then why the cut point is the start of the atlas? why not start at lv10 maps? why not directly at lv 15?

A game must be played, and no the campaign is NOT a tutorial, it is part of the game. What makes it so unbearable for so many people?

Poe 2 isn't even out yet and people say it's not fun? Icanteven..
