This is freakin stupid

This game is so got damn ridiculous. All I can do the whole time is just roll around dodging so much I can barely get any attacks in them I just get mobbed by everything at once and get one shot. I cannot believe how freakin retarded they made this game. It's like if you're any kind of casual player and not a God at playing poe your just fucked. It's dumb this game is bullshit.

I agree with you, PoE 2 is pure trash. Balancing my ass.
that moment when Rod was right LOL

How far did you get?
Y'all are weird. Most fun ARPG I've played so far. Maybe balancing is bad, yes, I admit it's likely some classes are very difficult compared to what I rolled, but it's extremely satisfying for me so far to learn the boss's attacks, develop a strategy, and overcome them.

Will you actually go back to poe1 though and just grind the same old stuff that's been solved already? I doubt it. I think you secretly want to overcome these challenges as well.
Exactly why I don't play Dark Souls games. 5 minutes that is like 75% dodging for every boss fight just isn't my type of fun. Packs joining boss fights that have bosses charging or long range autotargetting while AOE spams the arena where you have to dodge, dodge, dodge, dodge, dodge, dodge, dodge, oh I can cast a spell, dodge, dodge, dodge, dodge dodge. Yawn super boring.
all you need to do is distance yourself from mobs and deal damage remotely, either with slam skills/bleed, minions, totems etc. look up old POE builds on YT, should give you an idea how to play this game
Too hard for the casual players. Too easy for people who want a challenge.

Yes?
It's funny that the developers didn't care about what people like about poe and made something that people who don't play poe like.
I won't be surprised to see 33-50% negative steam reviews within 2 weeks for PoE 2. It's already at 20-25% negative, and most of the player base hasn't gotten far enough to realize the core of the game yet for 95% of builds, which is rolling around with what is also a super unexciting roll mechanic. They should have some option for your roll to be long or short range that you can pre-select, because doing a tiny slow roll feels terrible, unathletic, and cowardly in a game with a power fantasy.

Once these new players get towards the end of act 1, they will figure it out and hopefully leave their reviews. And it's everyone complaining about the same issue. 'Souls like' copying without the progression and atmosphere a Souls game would have in the first place. Plus it's an ARPG, not Dark Souls.

They literally designed the entire game around either doing some super high meta DPS streamer build that I refuse to look up, or quite literally pressing roll every 1-3 seconds to dodge what are many times poorly telegraphed attacks or completely random patterns.
