Content Update 0.2.0 -- Path of Exile 2: Dawn of the Hunt

It's probably been said countless times already, but the game doesn't feel fun anymore.

I don't think it's good design to have the huntress die instantly to the hag AOE in the 2nd area.

The game feels punishing, not sure why.

The balance between difficulty and rewarding / fun is just not there.

It used to be on launch day, that was great, guys. But not this patch.

See you next patch.. Totally not fun patch.

You guys playtested this garbage before release or this is your insane VISION?

Having the hag in 2nd area one shot you out of the bat is just stupid.

(New Witch Character)

How about revert back to 0.1.1?
This is insane!

POE2 2.0 patch is great. So many of you complainers haven’t given this patch a chance. Shame to see people complain about a product thats not exactly the same as something else they have enjoyed. Not going to be the same, meant to be a different experience than before. I like the difference and the challenge.

I always enjoy the "OMG THIS PATCH SUCKS AND IS UNPLAYABLE!!!" posts that come out before the patch is even deployed. Lets you know whose opinion you can ignore.

Streamers play the game 24-7 non stop to create builds, showcase a min-max build that will annihilate everything. GGG equates that to the game being to easy and swings the nerf bat. Skip to 3 months later and most streamers are off doing this to another game. Meanwhile, average joe player is left with a crap game.

The only people claiming this patch is the greatest on earth are the streamers. That's what they do for a living, stream themselves playing video games. So of course they have to play it with a smile on their face to get paid.

10/10! Finally some challenge :D
