To all complainers. If you're still playing POE2 after 0.2, then the devs do everything right!!!

If you're having fun great. Many of us are not and that means exoncomy will be more expensive for you, less items available and less community all around. Enjoy the game though, there are many other games players can trun to if not having fun in PoE2.

dude! I was talking about if you really dislike this patch just uninstall and DO NOT PLAY, if you enter the game devs will see that "hmm online numbers are good, we need to keep this SHIT up"

you understand what I mean?

imo there is defiantly some things they can improve on. i do also believe that some people are blowing it out of proportion.

I'm currently having fun doing warrior for the first time.

act 1 is definitely rougher this time around due to lack of items and currency, but once you get a good weapon and gear it becomes as quick as the first season for most builds.

need to buff the under performers though.

I watched Jungroan, realized that even endgame builds are probably miserable now and logged out instantly (he has OP combo and still deals no damage to map bosses).

Quite sad they killed Poe1 for that "game".

I want poe1 leagues every 3 months again.

He exploits every single mechanic in the game to ridiculous extent, i am 100% sure GGG watch what he does in order to tune it and make it inline with what they want, following one of his builds is quite literally waiting to be nerfed and that is a GOOD thing, broken stuff should not be allowed to exist

I tried this patch and couldn't last long as the enjoyment is no longer there. Just watching streamers now from time to time. I have noticed though that it looks to have become normal that streamers has a finger ready to click on the Escape button to Exit to login screen when they are about to die from white mobs.

Is this the new normal or has this been going on already before this abomination of a patch? It has been a regular thing now.

I don't want to come home from work, open the game I once loved, just to face mobs and mobs of monsters and get killed (more) easily this time. So now I have to be ready to hit on that escape button to lessen the misery?

I need to copy someone's build more than ever this time?

I know that GGG is proud everytime they hear people saying their game is "hard". More like that your game is now less enjoyable.

I know the usual trolls will chime in to say, "just get better". Like them. LOL.

A pity that this has become of this game.

What gets me is they were nice about not retroing all the changed items.

Like there are jewels rn with 3 or 4 rolls on them where the new intended highest range is 50% of each input.

Things like area of effect, minion area of effect Magnitude of shock, skill effect duration, tons of stuff.

So there were these legacy jewels sitting on trade for 10 exalts-few div.

Everyone is so displeased I managed to get like 90 of them. I’m not even that happy about it because for me to make currency on this people have to be around to buy them later.

But technically because all those jewel rolls got nerfed any of them with multiple rolls on the same jewel is like 1.5 jewels per jewel ya dig?

I got like every +2 maximum rage Jewel that existed for sale :). I figured since that one got nerfed by literally 50% having +2 must be meaningful .

But yeah they went about this very strange. Glad I grabbed a bunch of legacy trinkets.

Because they are legacy jewels with stat values you can’t get anymore I just up the price everytime I log in by 10 div ;)

These jewels are basically RuneScape party hats but with in game effect :,)

Now that I’m Monopoly money rich in poe2 from harvesting off this change I have had a change of heart and think every decision they made was genius. Huge wealth transfer

The patch is full of issues, the skills for many characters are quite terrible and the campaign has become even more unbearable.

Especially since EA we need to repeat A1-3 again it just feels bad.

Those defending against the complainers should step back and try to look at the problems from the average player, not your own personal comparison bias.

It isn't about difficulty, it's about everything during the early part of the game (where most players are quitting) simply is not a good player experience in general.

Loot doesn't drop, crafting is difficult to find materials early on and normal is simply just a little overtuned compared to your powerlevel since it's very RNG based on well built your character is in early acts.

Uninstalled after act 1. Might see how it is in 3 months.

Well, I'm still playing PoE2 because currently other games haven't started their new season. No alternative.

I will move on to other game once LE season 2 and D4 season 8 gets release.

I dont enjoy the current direction of the game seeing as my NON meta arc sorceress was gutted to such a degree shes completely dead as a character with full endgame gear (500+ divine). I get the damage/es nerfs the but mana rebalance makes most spells completely unviable. Whats the point of having casters that can't cast lol.

arc nerfed about 30% sad panda

Still playing it, having a great time, found new uniques and quality of life changes + performance improvements (but still terrible on event spawns, huge fps spikes).

I feel if the game would be a lot better if:
- The first 2 Ascendancy skill points more impactful
- need more skill slots and passive tree spends, both could really improve player mental, playstyle and take advantage of the weapon swaps early.
