Ctrl + Alt + Del

Almost finished, I did well in this league, leveled up two main characters, a blood mage and an infernalist, to 96 and 97. I made some gains, but I can say with total regret, this league, in terms of loot and other technical aspects, is the worst content ever released.

I played the entire league, the ENTIRE league, using Ctrl+Alt+Del, because the map freezes, then the screen goes black, and I have to end the task to continue playing, what a piece of junk.

I've tried every possible way to solve this, to the point of looking at a new video card, but I discovered it wasn't just me, and the problem is not my coputer, even using Vulkan, using this and that, modifying, reinstalling the game. and you know it GGG... you know and left the fuckury rolling. and i did copleted 4000H poe2, this never happened before. just in rise of crashing league.

Here are some things I really wanted to know: first, the loot. Even when players use tons of itens rarity in their gear, IQ, in maps roll, tons of rarity in the Juiced maps, etc., they still drop tons of useless items with no real purpose. Why does this game's loot have to be so awful? A player nearing level 100 with has become a garbage can. What a marvel!

Another interesting thing is the currency itself. I don't see the point in having Perfect Chaos and Perfect Exalts; they hardly ever drop. In this entire league, I dropped 2 Perfect Chaos, 3 Perfect Exalts, and I know I can trade and get more, but I still have a question: what's the point of having content that doesn't actually drop? Why have 3 types of Regal Exalts and Chaos, a bunch of Omens, if the crafting problem remains the base? How long will it take for you to understand that crafting without Alteration and Scouring Orbs will always be crap?

This recombinator, even using Omen, only succeeded once in this entire league. What's the point of crafting a bunch of resources if the tendency is 100% failure?

And again, how long will it take for you to understand that this randomness is bad and exhausting? I mean, after leveling up to 93, I stopped using 90% of all this garbage content related to crafting. Because all your ideas are bad and poorly designed, and it's clear that these mechanisms are just a lot of work, like throwing a grenade in someone's lap.

Arbiter of shards: a joke? No...

Why does the Uber Arbitrator drop regal shards? Who cares about regal shards? Why is this crap still in the game? Besides, what's the use of the regal orb (normal) itself? It's not even useful for trading, so if the orb it self has no use any more, what is the idea of the shards?.
I'd like to know the point of this game having 99.9% of everything the player drops useless.

Another thing that stands out: what's the obsession with creating so many map areas with tight passages? Why don't you standardize monster density according to the map level, without having to spend so much time and resources improving it?. why floor effects have no defence?. and why player visibility to certain ground effect is shit?. how did you expected to the player to have fun, if he throw away more than 50% of way stone he drops because every time, when we reroll map, 99% chance to roll with chill ground and other shit modifires. Without considering immersion and proportionality, you're just shoving content down our throats, right?.

You keep adding content that nobody drops, the server is full of bots,poorly designed mechanics like Chillground 1 portal map, the ritual altar with crappy rewards... ah yes ... the tablets. hahahahahahahah no ritual tablets, they are 5div at trade. some "players" are creating to copy temporalis and kaom heart.

There is a notification I'm really looking forward to... and it's not about druids...

yeah... i stopped playing in protest, cause my buddy got a better pc than mine and after abyss he started getting a crash every 5 minutes or so.
If you watched the qnr with ziggy on the new poe 1 breach league Johnathan was talking about t17 maps and he said there is a disconnect between what they want to do and the players enjoying it and he basically said they still wanna do what they wanna do they just have to find a way to make the players enjoy it. Tells a lot of the internal design philosophy right there

Sounds like every artist ever since the dawn of time. That isn't the gotcha you seem to think it is. I'm glad they are making something they believe in.

Doing what you believe in is noble, yes.

Doing what you believe in without considering second opinions or higher criticism is the surest path to ruin.

When it comes to a product you sell, things are different. There's a market, and that market has demands. If you don't meet the market's demands and requirements, your product fails.

It's an immense list of mistakes, which would take at least three or four pages. I don't hate the game, and nothing is personal. I just question those who enjoy technological, human, and financial resources and continually do the wrong things, knowing they could do much better.

Furthermore, I saw this movie 13 years ago when Diablo 3 was released, all that talk of "vision" and "philosophy" from Jay Wilson, yes, the same one who destroyed the Diablo franchise and ended up being fired a year later.

Good heavens, it's the same scenario...
Funny how every of your threads reads the same.

Hahahahahaha :D
Roflmao chill my guy.
Is this you, VisionBoy ! Posting about how great you are :D

Personaly its amusing to see players slowly starting to turn on GGG about lack of quality, testing of things and lack of fun in favor of trying to make people play boring stuff longer. Its been going on for years. POE2 has revealed it to everyone finaly.

Im not going to lie. I kinda enjoy it. Policing forums and damage control is not quite cuting it anymore. Can you feel it ?

I don't have a Reddit account. But I do believe the reason PoE2 is so financially successful is that GGG leadership is making a game that they want to play for years.
