Take on "Ben's" feedback
A massive shoutout to Ben – this guy is not just a god gamer in Path of Exile, he’s a straight-up genius. If you’ve ever watched him play, you know he’s on a whole different level. His gameplay is ridiculously smooth, with every move looking like it’s been rehearsed, yet somehow it feels effortless. But it’s not just about the mechanics; Ben’s deep understanding of the game’s systems and mechanics is insane. He can break down complex strategies and builds in a way that makes it all seem so simple.What really sets him apart though is his ability to stay calm, collected, and always think two steps ahead, whether he’s pushing endgame content or refining his character’s gear. It’s like watching a master at work – the kind of player who makes even the toughest bosses look easy. Beyond his gaming skill, Ben’s insight into Path of Exile is unparalleled. Every time he speaks about the game, you just know he’s thought it through thoroughly. His advice and opinions are always spot on, and honestly, I find myself agreeing with everything he says. Ben’s not just a legend in the game – he’s a legend in the community. The way he shares his knowledge, helps others improve, and keeps the vibe positive is something we all admire. He truly embodies what it means to be both a top-tier gamer and a thoughtful, intelligent person. Keep being awesome, Ben – the Path of Exile world is lucky to have you!

Ben's overreacting had some ok points but lost it with
There is no hope silliness. Did he play poe 1 at it's creation? It's came a long way baby. |

" You know you can check the join date of peoples' accounts right? Yes he did. His account was made in 2012. I joined in 2013, and I remember Ben was already one of the best players (we still had race seasons at the time.) Unlock your made in 2024 profile before leveraging criticism on the undisputed GOAT of PoE1. Love the games. PoE1 way more so than PoE2, but still enjoying both.
Hate the company. The scummy, lying, fake and shitty facade, the excuses, the failures, and most of all, the "Vision". Keep both of those in mind when reading my posts. |

Other than his terrible editing skills (Let the video breath a half second after a jump cut, Boss!) he's correct on most of his assessment.
Too bad most of the other Streamers are GGG honeymooners. Most of them just started a few months ago, and GGG are masters of the hype. They don't know the amount of disappoint and failed promises that GGG hasn't even bother to try to live up to. Yes, yes, I've never reached endgame myself, despite having played since 0.8c but that's because of my stubbornness to try and make my own builds work (They don't) or playing the new Leagues for a couple of weeks and then getting bored with how simplistic and pointless the mechanic is. And who thought Crafting made sense in a Loot Based ARPG? Even in Diablo 2, the alleged GGG inspiration, the Runes ADDED to the well rolled RNG loot you FOUND. Anyway, in the end, yes Ben is right about the state of the game. Tedious is a good word for PoE2. Could it get better? I hope so. But I got suckered by the hype before (Looks at the PoE2 'melee' system...) |

I agree with Ben in a lot.
The map layouts are just horrible! You simply can not deny that... Having only one movement skill is ass. Being fast is fun and also mandatory if the maps are this gigantic! Most Loot is inside breaches... also all endgame mechanics are worse then in PoE1. Crafting? lmao |

While Ben has some good points, I find myself agreeing more with Quin on this one.
If anything, it’s POE 1 that feels outdated, while POE 2 is clearly the future. POE 1, while currently the best ARPG, suffers from dated graphics, clunky animations, and a lot of bloat. These issues aren’t likely to improve significantly at this point. On the other hand, POE 2 looks and plays like a modern game, with stunning visuals and smooth gameplay. Plus, it’s set to receive major updates and new content, which will only make it better over time. Last edited by Waiden#9514 on Jan 29, 2025, 2:10:42 PM

" Sry I triggered you about a simple question about your hero. I saw poe one from Brutus being the boss. It changed a lot. He's whole it's doom take is ridiculous 🙄 |
|
" Who cares if he has won races? PoE is a PvE game and the most difficult part is knowledge, not skill. Imagine glazing someone so hard that you agree with every single thing he says. |

" If you think imma listen to a nobody over the BEST PLAYER IN POE, you're crazy. Ben is correct you are wrong. This rare hunting backtrack mess is the same thing we gave blizzard crap over with D4 and you are just giving GGG a free pass. Opinion rejected, end of story. |
