The Game no one Wanted Keeps Getting Worse

You should honestly go defend poe2 in the poe2 forum, its wild there, majority consensus is that it sucks
"
huh, drugs are bad mmkay


Are they though? Enjoying the game isn't a bad thing... you not liking it, isn't a bad thing... but acting immature in a way as to act like enjoying it is wrong, all because of your own personal reasons? That's a bad thing.

Care to elaborate on your thought process of distaste for the game?
I got the sauce.

POE2 enjoyer.

More players than the first game. More returned for the update than the first ever got...ever. Still better than the first game. I smile at OP.


What? PoE pulled over 400k with settlers last july. PoE2 doesn't even pull 250k in it's second league. It is devastating for a new game compared to a 13 year old game

Are those "over 400k" players in the same room with us right now?


[Removed by Support] not everyone plays on steam. A lot of people were playing the game before it was ever even on Steam. I have thousands of hours on the standalone client going back 10+ years.

POE2 released straight to Steam, the majority will have downloaded it via Steam for convenience over standalone. POE2 has already failed to bring back 50% of its audience per Steam numbers. POE1 continued to pull more players every league with Settlers having the largest player base ever. To make it real simple for you, POE 1 trending upwards, POE2 trending downwards.

Poe 2 is a joke.

imagine ur new game is worst than ur old game. its like your wife giving better foot massage than ur mistress - this never happens in real life!
That game is not finished yet and still many wish it would be dead.

Just ridonkulus.
Sorry but this stands for me as well. It's been a slog and increasingly pushing the levels of slog. The absolute worst though for me, is knowing what amazing skill/gear synergy was achievable in poe1 and then seeing as I can barely make two skill interact in a meaningful and fun way in POE2... It's ... simply not it...
Sometimes looking for trouble gets trouble to look for you.

They wanted slow and tactical gameplay in PoE2 but invited fast moving PoE 1 monsters.


With +1000% hp, and 200% defences and dmg!

This game is for NPC now.
Humans are not welcomed xD

The majority plays through Steam. It's like 65% Steam vs 35% Standalone + Consoles. 65% absolutely is the majority and good for interpreting data. Numbers don't lie.
