after wounder how poe2 and poe stacked up agaist other rpgs

bought a bunch of them and tried them over the holidays and not bad GGG but not even near the best

one thing ggg gets right is keeping the player wanting to come back but most other arpgs respect your time a hell of alot more and actually feel more fun to play because you actually feel powerful

the worst thing poe2 does is power, You feel like a wet noodle most of the campaign an the only builds that are kind of fun are ones that clear everything before u see them, which yes alot of arpgs are like that and sure you can say thats where the power is but no thats 1 or 2 maybe 3 classes
arpgs every class and skill should feel good and useful simple as that.

Poe not even close.

Im happy to say i found a better game, im really sad it took this long as Ive relised how much time ive wasted on ggg products when i could of been gettig better


please go try other arpgs out this games not it, it disrespects you like a mf

Many skills are not meant to do damage but to support skills that actually do damage. Hence why the game is so bland, even though the idea was for it not to be

Exactly. The idea that you can pick skill you visually like and scale it doesn't exist in this game. You just need to pick combo designed by Jonathan Rogers himself. God, sometimes I wonder how the fuck it is sequel to PoE1.
Fricking 10s cd Flameblast, GGG wtf

That's probably because PoE 2 should be different than 1 where you start zooming around lvl 3 lol. PoE 2 allows quite a lot of possibilities but those who complain simply refuse to see them.

I find it boring that "possibilities" you talk about are tailored tight by developers. That is the opposite what got my hooked to PoE1.

It's a strawman. The lack of viable builds and zooming are two completely different things.

You are right. I was replying also to "10 sec CD Flameblast".

Vaal skills, aka long cooldown skills, exist in PoE 1 too. Vaal Flameblast for one is pretty fun

It is just example of skill that tell your from the start how you should use it and when.
