Anyone else feels the same about poe 2?

Its still day 1 of early access and I just dont want to login anymore. the game is "hard" for the wrong reasons. The reasons are you just dont find enough skill gems and enough loot. And no I dont want to change my class and find some boring way to get to endgame.

Why does path of exile 2 have way less options to play around with skills than poe 1? You are forced to do some weird build because you cant buy other skills gems.

I bet the game will be much more fun and perhaps even easier at endgame but why I have to be punished in campaign for the first xx hours ?

i know you said you didnt want to, but honestly try a few different characters.


i have tried 2, a sorc and a witch, both using mostly just spells. the game felt radically different in terms of difficulty and combat with the 2 different characters.


a game like this is really hsrd to balance, some people will be playing a character that is overtuned and omg game feels easy people need to git gud lol

other people are playing a really undertuned character and the game feels like a real drag.



stick with it m8, try a few different classes, builds, there will be massive balance changes coming and you can already sample many different balance states by just trying different classes it seems.
I didn't get very far yet (feels liek I'm spending an hour per zone), but so far the skill system is something that feels rigid compared to PoE 1. I'm playing merc and it's even confusing that default attack does feel like it's the best option.

Meanwhile i prefer it the way it is right now. I dont want another idle game with extra steps.
