How are they going to address what they don't know what the problems are? That's exactly why the feedback forum exists. Why are you here browsing the forum just to shitpost to people that have issues with the game? If you loved it so much, why aren't you currently playing? Or perhaps talking about the positive parts you like about it with other like-minded people?

So many people here missing the entire point. Discuss all you will about difficulty. None of that matters if IT IS NOT FUN OR ENJOYABLE. If you are grunting and frustrated the entire time, it is not goods design. I would be fine with the difficulty ramping up in Act 2 or 3 once you have some good gems and good gear, but the difficulty right out the gate is too much for a lot of people. Maybe not the sweats, but for a lot of people who enjoy for the first game who don't 10k hours.


I've six hours in the game, three of it from waiting on queues, one hour from playing the map, the last two hours from dying to the same boss over 50+ times, now i rage quit and reading through forums till i figure out what to play. I was playing poe1 but they shutdown the market and the game feels empty atm...
worst gameplay i ever seen
+1 to OP, game simply isn't fun. Wouldn't recommend to anyone.
+1 to OP

I also just gave up on act 1 end boss..

I do not find it fun nor enjoyable doing the same fight over and over again until you get muscle memory of the fight, which can still 1 shot you if you do a bad roll, or until you magically get a useable drop which haven't happened yet, all my gear is from the vendors, what kind of ARPG is that?..

I was one of those who didn't really believe the "souls like" moniker put on the game, but it is,and as i HATE souls like games precicely because they are too hard and slow for me, POE2 just isn't for me in this iteration.

A game should be fun and enjoyable, this is simply frustrating and i have quit the game until either retail, or pathes have been done to either chose difficulty or tune the boss and mobs..

POE1 i got a LOT of hours in,and no mobs or boss fight is as hard as the ones in POE2 act1, and you rather quickly get powerful enough to breeze through the campaign..

I really hope the game gets a difficulty setting, or gets a lot of tuning tp the hp and damage of mobs and bosses..

And please spare me the "git gud" dumbass comment, not all of us are game savants that find enjoyment figuring a boss out for hours on end..
the biggest problem is the loot im in middle of act2 and im still using gear from act1 because its the best i got
also why in early game do you get resistant enemies that regenerate life took me 15 min to kill rare mob and 3 min for boss
buff the drop rate for currency and gold during the acts and nerf the life of rare magic and normal monsters they drop nothing but vendor trash so its frustrating

Game is way harder than it should be and very tedious and boring so far.Very disappointed.
First ARPG without loot and not being ARPG. Can't wait for Last Epoch next season.

Agree with everything you said.
Making the game Dark Souls: The ARPG version was certainly a choice.
