Absolutely disapointed -- This game is hard, and not in a fun way.

I read this as a request for "every builds to be viable" which I simply don't agree with.

If 95% of skills are not viable, 'build diversity' is a lie.
GGG needs to do better at balancing.

Also, big problem in poe2 scaling is that passive tree is boring and weak.
Finding a better weapon usually gives more power than getting 10 extra passive points.

I love p.o.e 2 compared to Diablo 4 and I never played p.o.e 1 but they need to take the good from Diablo and idk about the first game and work with at making it better. Gear shouldn't just dissappear into the void if you get killed by a death effect or something else before picking it up and the only other real problem I have is that you die so easily and the game atleast on xbox lags a ton when you play with other players. I can do some t4 and t5 maps very easily and than I go into some and get 1 shot by some stupid mechanic. I would rather take a little longer to kill enemies but be able to survive enough that 1 mistake or lag in the game doesn't end all my work up until that point. If you want to make 2 game modes one soft soft core and one where people get 1 shot do that but atleast make progressing matter. I haven't really progressed much from level 50 to now 74, I have gotten some extra damage but not a ton and I've gained almost 0 survivability in all those levels. Maybe that's my fault but getting better gear is very very rare on drops or crafting amd buying them is impossible until you're good enough that you don't really need them anyway. I have plenty of upgrades I can do but to get even a little upgrade over the gear on me takes divines or 100s of exalted amd even with 140% rare find ive found 2 divines the entire time playing and 0 greater or perfect jewelers orbs.

game is hard at first. i died 40 times to the colossus titan. kept trying and won. Gets a whole lot easier.. even with a fresh char, i can blow through the acts quickly..
