Better wakeup GGG, you better make up your mind on the critical issues player based wants and wakeup this is 2025. Don't implement POE 1 mechanics to POE 2, and majority of POE 2 players are newcomers. If they don't like your game it will spread out to the entire community like a wildfire that your game is bad.

1. remove xp penalty at end game and trials, that makes you go rage and quit.
2. NO respect for player time
3. Loot debuff on death
4. Remove Honour, at Trials will fail if honour went down to zero, and xp penalty imposed.
5. Boss can one shot you
6. Armor, and resistances are broken in this game
7. Can't pickup drop items, unless you kill all mobs in the area.

and a bunch more you need to fix, I hope you got the messages.

Don't make excuses that this is just an early access game, we need the fix now.

lol what?

I think the penalty for death should be more punishing. 10% or 2.5% isn’t enough.

How much have you played the game? Armor is broken? So much of this post is nonsense xD

Also I don’t think GGG is worried ppl left 3 months in to a league/ladder/ea or w.e you wanna call it

Lol dude, you know it's ok not to continue playing a game if you've completely finished it.

Death penatly should be 99%, every time you die there should be 1% chance you drop item from inventory. THIS GAME IS for 5 y old, still too EASY !

Its a little more then that actually. Its more like 89% loss from peak.

Soon poe 1 will have more players. Kinda sad but hey, keep on keeping on.
Look on the bright side GGG. You dont have to worry about your servers not being able to handle the "vast amounts of players" anymore.

You so funny

1. To learn how to play, you need to know the mechanics of the game to minimize the chance of dying
2. what? Do you want to get to level 100 in 2 days and dress up your character completely? Then you need to play another game.
4. Try not to take damage and not to die :)
5. It's true, but, you may not go to this boss.
6. Armor maybe, resistances not broken

POE has always been a hardcore game in which you need to spend a lot of time to achieve the result, but it's worth it. If you need a very quick result - look for another game.

Are you trolling with this post or what? Most of what you said is absolute nonsense. Allow me to explain -

1. remove xp penalty at end game and trials, that makes you go rage and quit.

This doesn't make players quit and you've completely missed the point of why so many people aren't playing. Most people are waiting for the new league to start, others don't feel there's enough endgame content yet but are well aware that there will be heaps more to do in future. Furthermore, you clearly have no clue that there are omens you can purchase that prevent you from losing 75% of EXP loss. EXP loss is normal in games, if you don't like it then you can always go play Pokemon.

2. NO respect for player time

What are you even talking about with this statement? They're doing their best to keep players happy, constantly pushing out hotfixes for bugs and changes.

3. Loot debuff on death

If you're talking about quantity/rarity drops, this is false. You only lose the full buff if the people who died LEAVE THE MAP. If they remain dead in the map then you still receive the full buff.

4. Remove Honour, at Trials will fail if honour went down to zero, and xp penalty imposed.

This one made me laugh. You're asking them to remove 2 mechanics the trial was designed for? Honour is part of the trial, it's a mechanic. So is the one shot mechanic which can completely be avoided, even made easier if you get the +40% movement speed from the merchant. To top it off, there are also honour resistance relics you can use which make getting hit tickle your honour.

5. Boss can one shot you

This is another funny one. Sure, a boss can one shot you... IF YOU HAVE ABSOLUTELY TRASH GEAR. Invest in trading and maybe get better gear, sockets and jewels...?

6. Armor, and resistances are broken in this game

This just keeps getting better and better. What on Earth are you talking about? They work just fine.

7. Can't pickup drop items, unless you kill all mobs in the area.

This is probably the only true statement you've made in your entire post. This issue only occurs with controllers, not with mouse and keyboard and I'm certain it will be patched very soon.

The only thing this post has achieved is showing us how inexperienced you are when it comes to gaming. You've clearly put no time what so ever into understanding the game, the gear, jewels, skills, quality, sockets etc... You've literally skipped everything and expected to be godlike by the time you hit endgame.

What a joke.

Not putting EA characters in the final release eternal league is the major reason for some of my friends and myself. The season approach becomes more and more unpopular for a big minority.

They still have it setup where you only get one TP per map? Won't be coming back to even try POE2 again until that is fixed tbh.
