Druid is fun. Ruthless is not.
|
One of the best Druid classes, i wish it had a bit more earth magic too plants/rocks. I was playing with totems and thought it would be really cool if they were just earth magic. Really Hope the druid comes to PoE1
Having said that i still find myself getting frustrated with the same game designs choices and i end up just quitting. Like the Vall temple only having one attempt I was like " really?" and then remembered maps. I don't like the way PoE2 is going, fundamentally. it feels like PoE1 + a few changes for changes sake + some better graphics + ruthless mode. I wanna be super clear. the game foundation is great (not sure about the skill gem changes but eh). Im just really annoyed with the game design choices of it being ruthless. it makes me salty thinking the rest of the game is being devolved with that mindset. Last bumped on Dec 21, 2025, 1:53:19 PM

" Completely agree with all of this. PoE2 has a genuinely wonderful foundation, in my opinion, but their core philosophy when it comes to some things are appalling and extremely confusing. I think they need to honestly drop the ruthless aspects, but that is just my opinion on it. |

All the overlapping death punishing mechanics has got to be the stupidest aspect of the game. It's like they basically expect you to already know everything from ideal builds, maps, and even boss/enemy mechanics through pre-watching youtube guides before attempting anything.
The designers are too obsessed with trying to make this an arms race against the most broken players. My early access feedback (0.1): https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3639607

" im just spit balling here, but Jonathan Rogers has come out saying he wants to develop a game thats fun for him AND he's also come out saying he enjoys ruthless. Like arpgs are already a niche, whos gunna tell JR he's developing a niche within a niche. *COUGH*MARKPLEASEMARK*COUGH* Last edited by Linkefer#6630 on Dec 21, 2025, 1:52:30 AM

" Yes and of course Jonathan being the evil tyrant he is has clearly never discussed this with his team and the entire GGG studio all sits in silence in fear of Jonathan... |

i just want them to show us how many people ever played ruthless both during its release (it was sanctum league as i remember) and in following leagues.
i bet it has like 10 active players throughout the league. and they still decided to make poo2 a separate ruthless game. not to mention that all the aspects of vision have failed. 0.4 without tower system is x100000 times better than it was with towers, now its possible to play for a long time without constant vomitting bc you need to run alch and go maps to setup 2-3 towers -> farm 6-8 maps in towers area - repeat. remove the vision, give us updated poe1 version in poe2 and everything gonna be nice Last edited by SoColdO_O#1989 on Dec 21, 2025, 2:15:54 AM

" or how about this wild Idea....just go play POE 1. If you think POE 1 is a better game overall then go play it. Its got an active server right now and a new mechanic not even 2 months old. |

" Or remove PoE 1 and give us updated vision in PoE 2 lol. |

" POE2 in its current state from what we played in 0.1 to present is not Ruthless at all. It's not even close. POE2 is a casual game with little agency. The drop rates are not even remotely close to Ruthless. Rarity applies to currency for the "raw divine" andys. Yes "POE2 is Ruthless Pepega Clap 4Head KEKW" was a meme some years ago, but now early access is here and we can see that the development of the game completely changed course before the v0.1 release. They said it themselves, it's to be more "accessible". POE2 is almost unplayable in HC btw, but what would you know about that. |
