This is Why Most People Never Come Back or Never stay - Map Boosting

Juicing maps via towers.

This is the major downside of the game. Why? Even if you increase loots. Even if you make everything good in this game. Nobody will invest their 2-3 hours into juicing maps, finding good areas for farming etc. Because that 2-3 hours is not rewarding. Just investing time for future reward potential by farming those areas. After you finished that area. Well good luck. Lets invest 2-3 hours again.

This may look ok first. But if you repeat this process more than 10. You will get bored and you will stop playing.

Plus there are tons of poor elements in this game.

Been 2 weeks I haven't played this game. I have 1100 hours in.

You are correct, the biggest issue as to why people are not coming back is tower juicing being tedious.

And a very important part for me is also the nerf of great unique items to the ground, leaving no desirable unique to loot for.

I've come to despise juicing to an extreme degree. In PoE1 I never liked the process, but I still did it and could enjoy endgame for a long time per character. Now in PoE2 I get to endgame and I just want to level up a different character instead of continuing. Then I get burned out and don't want to play at all...

And how can I skip one map, if dont like one type ? Only make some more to avoid this... Joke.
Favoured maps ?

the atlas just fells like a filler to watch a fallen star one timer per life time.

I dont think I ever did a 82 map more than twice since league start <o>

with 0.1 and 0.2 i actuaIIy preffered to farm triaIs and boss rushing, much more enjoyabIe, it doesn't feeI fun to me to run map in poe 2 compared to one. too much downside (map, speed, Iimited portaI etc..)

a Good MIddle ground is allow us to Juice Maps again by themselves.

and towers add a Multiplier of 0.5-2.5 times depending on the amount of towers in range buffing it, to the Explicit (Prefix/Suffix) mods on it.

it allows you to juice maps, but also makes towers good if you want to aim for them.

its a win win middle ground.

This is a funny point cuz I honestly dont really notice the difference between boosting maps and not boosted ones.
You can still get lucky and get good stuff in some rando average map you are on your way to the tower and can still get unlucky and get nothing good from boosted map

This topic is also correct. Doesn't respect people's time.
