SHOULD pvp be introduced in POE2?

Time to open a can of worms.

Flowers are only flowers because they fall,
but thankfully the Wind.

Hell yeah, PvP LOGIN

Imagine, screen-wide twisters vs screen-wide twisters

The THRILL

Neden yaşıyorsun?
Sure because the game doesn't already have enough problems...
renegade exiles are a placeholder...time for some random actual player to spawn into games and wreck havoc >;?)

Yes, as long as teh XP lose still counts on death
The game as it stands right now doesn’t really have any endgame hook to it other than the old classic endless min/maxing. Some sort of PVP is crucial to put that hook on. Unfortunately, this is an area GGG doesn’t seem to have any real interest in exploring. I don’t see it happening, ever.
PVP would be fun but also unbalanced with certain builds dominating. PVE meta would probably differ from PVP meta and so the devs would then have the task of trying to balance the game around two seperate playstyles.
I would like to see it added in but I don't think it would get the attention it deserves to see it thrive without taking away from the PVE content

They already tried PvP in PoE 1, in several forms. It never succeeded, lets be real PvP in an isometric top down is never really good. The old 1vs1 arena's they did back in the day was so boring.

The only form of PvP I liked in PoE was the battle royale they brought temporarily which was meant to be an April fools joke but if fleshed out could of been a fun mode.

As long as PvP is only available in hard-core
