Respecing gold cost is way too expensive

The game is huge and the passive skill trees are enormous, me and my friends decided to try PoE2, we are new players and since we are not following any guides we just found out we dont have gold to change the passives, the cost is ridiculous, we are stuck, we cant try new things, it makes no sense, on the advertised video it clearly says "for a small cost" you can respect, it was a lie, we kinda feel cheated...
