>>483744375>>483745342>>483745129offtopic
>>483745342Asking a PoE player for their opinion in good games is like asking a junkie on the street where the best food is in a city.Their opinion is automatically null and void, because they're worthless addicts. They don't even exist on the same plane as the rest of us. Keep sloppin away at PoE 1 you lil addicted nignog.
Don't give up hope exile.Just because things feel hopeless doesn't mean they are.Ruthless is just a click away (it'll cure what ails ya)

>>483750863>Old chink pulls a slot machine ad infinitum>Cherries, Gold bars, 7s abound>"That's complexity"Only complex part of PoE is assembling the build and you completely undermine that by copying your favorite streamer build verbatim.100s of bots that play the repeated portions of ARPGs0 bots that can play Elden RingReally makes you think doesn't it defeated nigger?
>>483744375never played a soulsfag, try again
>>483751667play hc, chudor ruthlessor ssfbots don't play those modes: you're playing the wrong mode, chudeither way, clearly a skill issue
what's the number one lesson ggg can learn from this disaster league?
>>483753151That catering to streamers was the death knell of a small Chinese company in a small Chinese colony.A cultural revolution where these streamers are forced to work in the rice paddies is a necessary step and a "great leap forward"
>>483753151doesn't matter since niGGGer is incapable of learning the lesson, no matter how many times it is taught... and frankly the playerbase isn't much better in that regard...
>>483754209picrel -> It's PoE1 players
All these losers, these streamers, these retardsMazed beyond beliefThey've seethed in the dark so much, they've become cynicism personified, to the point they think the game is a scam, players are addicts, and it's all a Chinese slot-machine simulatorMeanwhile... my best friend playing blind with his comfy soulful melee Infernal Blow build just finished the campaign and is about to experience endgame, having the time of his life, playing the game like the developers originally envisionedThe game is not the problem(You) are the problem

>>483754370At least PoE1 players started with a fresh bowl. PoE2 players get the pre-vomited bowl from the PoE1 players... after all, PoE2 is being built from PoE1's rotted out foundation. the only difference is there's a different monkey directing it but it's a monkey from the same zoo.
>>483755636arpg is the worst genre anyway, we don't deserve anything good
>>483755636>>483755458>>483757218Why are you so negative about a game you're supposed to enjoy playing?
>>483751667why would someone make a bot for elden ring?there is a blindfolded darksouls speedrun category so i would imagine someone could make a bot for it if they really wanted it.
>>483755636PoE closed beta, open beta, and 1.0 was supreme kinoI pity those who never experienced itPoE2 will suck because it's not Chris Wilson directing or involved in day-to-day design: it's his retard friend who once only did code and his QA lead who is obsessed with designing boss fights to the point the rest of the game can be a dumpsterfire he won't give a shit>ARPGs are about items>as soon as the items lead designer steps down the game and its sequel goes to shitWell fuck me sideways who would've thought
>>483757768>baldo sent this fat cow to sabotage riot's arpg>she succeeds and immediately quits
I just finished the Elden Ring DLCI must've died like 200 timesHonestly? I'm tired of soulslikes and their bullshitMaybe I'm finally becoming a boomer, but this type of gameplay has become so obnoxious to the point I've become completely desensitized to itAt the final boss I was just executing the moves in the most thousand-yard stare fashion and was glad when the whole ordeal was overDidn't even want to replay it this timeGood riddance
>>483753151stop bloating the game and endlessly extending the end game and make skill gems fun again
>>483760091>souls killed>3d rpgs>Action games>and now arpgs how does it do it
>>483760091i only ever played dark souls 3, a few hours into it and i realize i just didn't care so i uninstalled it and never looked back.
>>483763470going in blind to dark souls 1 gave me the same sort of feelings i had going in blind to gothic in 2001, playing morrowind on release in 2002, seeing outlands for the first timeit was a return to the womb
>>483760091sekiro is a decent game, especially if you don't take the 40IQ parry everything route and explore more optimal options. Wanted Dead made by ex team ninja guys is one my favorite action games recently and I hope they make multiple sequels.
>>483735652There's 2 good leagues in this whole list. Is it over?
>>483766173No turd floats forever, my son.
>>483759226in a different timeline Riot sends one of their ara-ara mommies to niGGGer and she save poe...
>>483766173no those 2 leagues are shit too you probably only like them becasue they were very rewarding
is there seriously another entire month of necrapolis to go?
>>483765313>Wanted Dead made by ex team ninja guys is one my favorite action games recently and I hope they make multiple sequels.wait, that game?
>>483766932yep, and don't expect faGGGot to have any races or near-end of league events either to help pass the time, and if they do it'll be dogshit like another ruthless race or insert-dogshit-league-evey-where slopium
>>483766932SGDQ starts in a few days
Still 28 sleepies til new league.
Just bought a second 1p voices for my standard character, up to 26.4k ES and 17.5k mana. My boy is getting thicc.

Still 112 goonies until next league.

Dark Souls and soulslikes are the worst thing that ever happened in this timeline.They are bad games through and through, and it still baffles me the amount of hype and obsession both players and other developers have for this 'genre' and anything related.I'm a boomer and've played lots of challenging games throughout my life and they weren't a death trap gauntlet simulator, they were challenging to figure out the systems, come up with optimal strategies, experiment with mechanics, beat the higher difficulties, etc.Examples of such games:>X-COM (DOS)>Civilization 1-4 + SMAC>Master of Orion>HoM&M 2-3>StarCraft>Old-school RTSs in general>Diablo 2 (HC)>Goldbox RPGs>Bullfrog games>FTL>Jagged Alliance>Old-school multiplayer competitive FPSs (eg., Quake 3/Live)These games were very hard—particularly in the higher difficulties—and they didn't resort to retarded rollslop, bullet hell, one-shot slams, 9 gorillion boss fights, ground degen spam, etc.Dark Souls and anything soulslikes-related are, in my mind, absolute dogshit and artificial difficulty compared to those games and nothing will ever change my opinion.Nothing.Prove me wrong.Protip: you can't.
>>483777992>>Civilization 1-4 + SMACCiv 6 is pretty fun especially if you get into mods. I play a map thats 4x as big as the default huge map with 18 extra resources, an expended tech tree, and special luxury resource monopoly rule mods.
what's your favorite souvenir from the graveyard?
>>483777992I can't change your mind but King's Field, Demon's Souls, and Dark Souls by themselves were fair, intuitive, and very rewarding of game knowledge. This all went out the window when ds2 dropped and the meme of you WIll le DIE type of gotcha bullshit and terrible hitboxes became a staple for the rest of the entries in the franchise. Very unfortunate for anyone that actually liked Demon's/Dark Souls.
>>483779662This actually makes a lot of sense and is probably what happened but I still hate Dark Souls
>>483779149Civ 5-6 are nowhere near the depth and difficulty of Civ 3-4Nowhere
>>483777992Sekiro and Bloodborne are kino but the main souls series is slop.
>>483775832can you stop
>>483777992>>483785112path of exile????????????????????????
>>483782317>the depth and difficulty of Civ 3You mean the game where you autobuild roads on every single tile because it gives +1 Commerce?
>the depth and difficulty of PoEYou mean the game where you kills mobs on every single map because it gives loot?
Last Epoch in 2 weeks!
>>483786179last epoch RIGHT NOW NIGGER excuse the windows HDR brightness with my screenshot i still dont know how to fix this shit
>>483785868Yeah, but the depth and difficulty is in all the wrong ways you can do that, and all the ways you can die doing that and have to start over.There's no wrong way to build roads on every tile.In seriousness though, I don't see an argument for Civ 3 being deeper and/or more challenging than 6 unless you have some 200 IQ take on stack combat in the wings. Civ 6 objectively has a lot more going on, and a lot more meaningful decisions to make.
>Yeah, butI accept your concession.
>>483785752auto-building roads is a very late game thingearly game it's a waste, particularly emperor and abovegit gud
>>483786847Limited-use workers is deeper because you have to put more thought into the timing of their production and what to prioritize, and also much less tedious.
this man just ChatGPT'd his cringe ass answer that didnt even address the original point hahahahahaha
>>483787126>less tediousopinion immediately disregardedyou are dumb
>>483787362Yes, it being optimal to improve every single tile in a menial way is the definition of tedious. I want my decisions in games to be impactful and have immediate trade-offs. Worker management in the old Civs is braindead.
>>483787362Alternative response: Glad to see another Ruthless chad in the thread!
>>483787630they do have immediate trade-off and impact, retardthe fact that you have "unlimited" moves means more choices, and if you make the bad ones you loseit also means the computer doesn't improve much of anything—literally a mechanic to put you on par to the retard AI they madeyou'd notice all of that if just stopped playing on settler difficultyretard
>>483789012>the fact that you have "unlimited" moves means more choicesYou have "unlimited" access to workers in 6 too, you just have to make an extra choice to make another one (which is weighed against every other unit you could be producing) instead of them just standing around forever, needily.The choices matter more with limited usage per unit. In 3, you can just improve that tile next. In 6, you have to choose when to put all production on hold to get another worker, and whether that's worth it.
>>483786319Civ 4 actually handled stacks extremely well with sieges units absolutely trouncing death stacks with collateral damage.Problem with Civ6 is the AI is the trashiest in all the series. Add in the solved state of districts and it all feels like a good idea that was executed pretty poorly.
>Does nothing>WinsThe Vision is spreading.
>>483789829>tripfagi can't believe i've been replying to the tripfag literal schizo all alongfuck me
>RUTHLESS retard trying to argue that he is right because "less tedious more efficient"
>>483791179"Tedium" is largely the point of a hack-and-slash game; it shouldn't be for a strategy game.
OH NOONONONONONHE'S GONE FULL DELUSIONHAHAHAHAHAHAits over fedexile retardscreenshotting these interactionyoure doneyoure a hypocrite retard and a basedboy little cuck as youve shown in your selfies
>>483791580I'll pray for you.
>>483791179the worst part is it literally makes the game more tedious and dumbroad building was an art in itself because you could be wasting moves instead of improving more useful tiles, chopping trees to rush production, to the point a good ballpark in civ3-4 was to have workers = 1.5x citiesciv6 removed all of that strategic depth by dumbing down road building, dumbing down tile improvement, dumbing down different types of improvements (previously you could mine, quarry, windmill, or cottage a hill), replacing it with the dumb district system, and further dumbing down with 1UPT because you could have two or more workers building an improvement fasterthe fact that retard can't even comprehend what all of that means is evidence enough he's nothing but a two-digit iq nigger
retarded tripfags exposing that they are not only shit at the general's game but all games is a certified 4channel moment
>>483785112demon's souls on PS3 was perfect. The fact they kept shitting garbage sequels out was a sign they were just doing whatever to make money. I think the team is best when they are doing something completely different instead of trying to refine a turd
>>483791873thanks budappreciate it, but you're still a hilarious loser
>>483792956ummm, no dude. demon's souls was pure garbage. kings field 4 was where it should have stopped.
>>483793778Are you the output of an LLM that was trained with the most niggerish takes on the planet? If so, your model is complete.
>>483789829You don't have unlimited access to workers in civ 6 because the cost increases for each worker you build. I've had games where I have over 120 cities and am on my 200th or 300th worker and they cost more that death robots to gold purchase.
>>483794809Are you the output of an LLM that was trained with the most niggerish takes on the planet? If so, your model is complete.
>>483792142I don't mind district's, having your entire city on one tile for 1 to 25 population along with all your wonders did feel and look pretty janky at times.
>>483798297lol literally who the fuck cares, it's a 4x game with like a 100 layers of abstraction, nobody gives a shit if a tile's got 25 units or 25 population as long as the gameplay is deep and balanced, which it was
>he dropped his trip>you can still tell who he is by his linguistic fingerprintOH NONONONO
>>483799208argie schizo please calm down

>>483799453>>483799631i don't own civ6, nor civ5i don't buy nor play shitty gamesi do own, however, civ3 and civ4, though i have never played them multiplayer though because both games could be very challenging without needing to get locked in always war against some random internet neckbeard
I'm a degenerate gambler. All I want is buying chase uniques and double corrupt them. Buy adorned pieces to gamble for the jewel. Corrupt woke gems. God, I just want to gamble. How do I stop it poeg.
>>483779662>le DIE type of gotcha bullshitDemon souls was the source of this behavior what do you mean? It's fine if you dislike DS2's blatantly alien system but demon souls was miyazaki jerking off to the "rocks fall, everyone dies" meme as every turn around a corner had some instant-death trap or lead up to two or three mobs that will stun lock you instantly. It's always been like that and in fact it's only the later installments that have recently allowed you to out-stat most problems you encounter which is far more in line with your whole rewarding game knowledge bit. Everyone is gimmicking the last boss of the DLC instead of doing the frame-perfect dodge roll dance because he's literally a meth'd out faggot that requires a shield to protect you as you stab him with narcan.
>>483800053>i don't own civ6Cool, so you have no basis upon which to say "Civ 5-6 are nowhere near the depth and difficulty of Civ 3-4", because that would require actually playing them.Thank you, next.I could also play Civ 3 or 4, though I might die of boredom if a midgame war takes too long, so I will probably go for an ancient-era rush.
>>483801315i said i don't play them, not that i never ever played them, retardi've played each for about 3 or 4 hours, more than enough to get an idea of how shit both of them werealso it's not like i ever needed to given how retarded most of the design decision were: i've never played a single minute of diablo 3 yet i know it's an abysmally bad game just from shit i've watched and read about it>midgamewarpic related is how retarded your stupid games look (and are) during midgamei'll take the simplicity of a stack of doom over that abominable tedium any dayalso what's the next goalpoast move?
>>483803676>i've played each for about 3 or 4 hoursCongrats on killing Merveil bro. You've earned your opinion on the PoE endgame.>>483803676I've seen that picture 8 years ago, and that must have been its original quality too. That scenario never occurs unless every player is both retarded and playing as passively as possible.
Spent like 14 hours and still not through the campaign, whats a really broken spell. I used the life potion throwing skill once, was pretty nutty for levelingl.
Feeling kind of bored of PoE. Download Last Epoch and give it another try. Shortly after this mistake I exit that game and start a brand heirophant. Lads it maybe dead right now, but by the cleansing fire coming for us it could be much worse.

Sweats ruin games, They are the 1% of a playerbase and any game that caters to them usually ends up dead.
>>483813794if a game has an economy you can bet the 1% are gonna shape it. That's just how economies work.
>>483779508i have plenty but this one i rike alot
>>483813794The key is to maze them out with endless metrics that result in only minute increases while perfectly normal and sane players enjoy the rest of the 97% of the content in peace. Agitate the sweats when you need free marketing and give them the "privilege" (as an apology) to beta test your new content and hash out the metrics for you while simultaneously telling you exactly what kind of gameplay the playerbase wants to see. The trick is the last part, you can't take everything the sweats say seriously because they're fucking crackheads which is the problem most game companies have.
>>483818172>The key is to maze them out with endless metrics that result in only minute increases while perfectly normal and sane players enjoy the rest of the 97% of the content in peaceso, uh, exactly like it currently is?
>>483818903How else could a small company in a chinese province manage to rise up against the industry's juggernaut? They tricked their players into testing and even designing their game for them, often they paid for the privilege to do so. Free to play monetization is practically black magic when you really think about how effectively manipulative it is.
>>483816296okay even if we imagine it to be true the game doesn't have to revolve around the economyletting it revolve around the economyif game was beatable on majority setups wihout any hyperrare/ubergated drops the economy would exist but would be irrelevant to anyone but the sweats minmaxing
>>483819354what the hell are you talking aboutyou sound p. mazed desu
GGG needs another gimmick league since they seem popular but i don't know what genre of video game they can parody next. They've done autobattler, theif game, vampire survivor, roguelike. What could we get next? grand strategy, card game, platformer
>>483819629Dating Sim
>>483819629Dynasty Warriors, in a really abstract form. They’d need to add a real-time overhead map of multiple zones and you can see enemy forces moving around.A PoE card game could go crazy
>>483820042impostor begone
>>483820014This.Though the new lines for PF/Witch are written so poorly that I doubt GGG could pull a dating sim off.
>>483820042If they tacked on a TCG to the current div card system that would be peak content bloat, if poe 2 is a flop I wouldn't even be mad at them for doing it to get some last minute cash flow. TCG players are the original whales and you may as well go all in on gacha slop if your flagship IP fails.
>>483821170> If they tacked on a TCG to the current div card systemMore likely a replacement. Div cards aren’t in Ruthless.
>>483819375>game was beatable on majority setupsYou don't need sweaty setups to 'beat' PoE whatever your definition of beating is.
>>483821170>Cards have effects and costs>The effects and costs are prefix / suffixes>Different cards are just different basetypes>A billion different RNG cards

Yes, we all know PoE2 is going to suck by nowEver since end of July 2023, actuallyThis general's been on life support ever since...
>>483766173I haven't enjoyed a PoE league since Ritual, crash out half way through week 1 every time
84 pees until new league
>page 10 bumph-hold it, bros...let's k-keep it alive...b-bros?
So I just got to yellow maps, at what point should I start to look into crafting items? I've been getting by with just randomly necro crafting items but I've been told I need crafting for flasks in particular?
After PoE2 comes out, how do they kill PoE and force everyone to migrate? My bet is on loot boxes with cat girl MTX. The final nail in the coffin will be the one with voice lines audible to everyone nearby. Imagine loading into town and hearing a 60 year old Japanese woman using her loli voice to yell "Onii-chaaan <3"
>>483859341I mean nigger-faggot goblins and MTXs that crash 60% of the player base if they stay in town longer than 20 seconds didn't do it I don't see how catgirls will. you sound like a stupid nigger.
>>483859026>but I've been told I need crafting for flasks in particular?It makes sense to roll +charge when hit+useful suffix on each of your flasks, and use the "Use when charges reach full" bench craft.You can settle for less but there's a lot of power in flasks.As for other items, it depends what your gear is like. If your gear is dogshit, hitting some random fractured item with an essence once could produce an upgrade.If your gear is not dogshit, then you might need to do more elaborate crafting, if you're playing a popular build, you can probably find weapon/armour/ring crafts on youtube.
>>483859026at yellow map just look for ways to do more dmgyou can just pick up yellow items and identifybench craft and harvest craft sometime can fix your problem next difficulty spike is red map because it require you to run rare + corrupted map for bonus objective

Ruthless represents a better time.A time when you were happy.A time when you weren't mazed.A time when small victories were appreciated.A time when you weren't fondling your genitals to the point of no returnThat's just a few of the many reasons that so many people are playing Ruthless (we're have a blast!!!!)
>>483881646ruthless chad hope you have enough passive income to support all those children.
what ARPGs are we buying in the steam sale?
>>483881646>so many people are playing Ruthlessdelusional mode for delusional peopleruthless died the moment they forced scarcity and made the game feel like nothing but a miserable slogi'm all for toning down power creep but ruthless is as dumb as it getsreminder only 5% of the playerbase plays that shit mode
>>483881646I played it, but of course I died to a neo-killsyou on dead mechanic
>>483867734On a reset it gets that, though characters aren’t players kekOur local bump schizo might have 10+
>>483883316It isn’t even 1% don’t do them that honor
>>483881646>>483883316>>483886829Why would GGG create a mode if some few people play it?
>>483867734800 characters have reached maps in HCSSFR
>>483887439Most blame krip but I just think wanted to make classic poe and they had no way to do itAnd so we got ruthless instead
Chris wanted to that is
>>483887439delusional washed up devs who've completely forgotten what made their game great at the startyou see, it wasn't extreme item scarcity what made poe 1.0 great, it was that great early exploratory feeling—which in part was fueled by the abundance of drops—but at the end of the day you can only make a good first impression onceruthless is like trying to put up together a mirror that is broken: you'll never return to that same exact state and capture the essence againpoe2 was unironically the correct move, but which they should've *finished* years ago, and instead we're getting a game that is a direct vendetta and crusade against the made-up windmills of softcore trade in the minds of two absolutely delusional developers who're no longer guided by the true masterminds:chris & eric, who were the ones in ggg really big on the d2 endgame grind

>>483893373>no longer guided by the true masterminds:>chris & eric, who were the ones in ggg really big on the d2 endgame grindin my opinion this is the crux of the issue with poe2seems to me poe2 is no longer about items and the grind, and trying crazy shit outin fact i feel the item chase in poe2 is going to be reduced to "when i am going to get an item that makes this experience less miserable"
i just spend 50$ on stashtabs

>>483897091He's unironically right though, they can do whatever the fuck they want with their game. If that doesn't conform to the idea that your fried brain considers to be fun, that's not their fault.Keep chasing what streamers tell you to play though, surely that'll reset your dopamine receptors.
>>483893373>which in part was fueled by the abundance of dropsIt's not just about the number of drops. If the drops are scarabs, splinters, essences, and harvest juice then I don't give a fuck if I drop 1000 of them in a map. It just fucking hurts to pick them up. Give me big fat stacks at the end of the mechanic, don't make me pick up pennies, and don't make me backtrack. That will actually feel good.

the longer Chris waits to tease the next season the more permanent damage is done to the IP
If you think PoE has bad retention, Gigantic has 1% player retention and it's only been out for 1.5 months.

Most people only use one or two attacks. You are an ignorant and deranged moron who not only doesn’t play videogames, but also doesn’t even respect the one (1) videogame you’re obsessed with.
Also I vividly recall GGG calling out D4’s skill rotations and saying they don’t want to do it the same mindless and repetitive way where you just press everything as it comes off cooldown, and there’s still no cooldowns or universal builder/spender here so they’re probably serious about that.

>today's my monthly check of the poe changelog>ctrl+F 'auction house'>0 results>go back to playing last epoch
Im gonna make an old school arpg game to replace poe1, except its gonna be in third person and a randomly generated open world game where you enter dungeons like daggerfall and can share your map with other people at a static town area. Like imagine Wurm online plus poe

BIG SHIT

>>483922193if someone is new to arpg they have no previous experience to forget, idiotgame explains nothing, idiotlevel 2 character finding themselves in stunlock gangrape situation is not good game design, idiot
>>483943958Nah, phrenology states that you already have the skull of a tradelet. It's over for you sadly.
in hindsight, was it that bad?
>>483917310what fucking power creep are you talking about?there is no power creep outside some super endgame super rare or super gate uber itemsyour fucking characters are entering maps weaker than ever
>>483944830It was pretty bad, anon
>>483944857t. shitter
>>483944857>what fucking power creepI still have my duelist when bringer of rain saved melee, you have no clue what you are talking about.>your fucking characters are entering maps weaker than everAnyone with years under their belt turns their first red into a never-ending supply of them trade league or not. It's not a bad thing you still have much to learn, I suppose, but frankly speaking I'm baffled you're even bothering to learn more when 2 is right around the corner. By all means have fun discovering what ancient exiles have known for years now, we're just playing meme builds while biding our time until 2 comes out. Once you learn how to farm tier 16s on day 2 of a league you'll understand how busted and boring this game really is when you know nearly every metric and how they interact with each other.
>>483944830what warranted this response?
>>483945965only tellnever showfake and gay
>>483945965pretend all you like but when every moron starts suppression and detonate dead its not because they fucking like it like that but its because game is overtuned in comparison to vast majority of skills/defensesnow go power creep back into whatever asshole you crawled out of
>Fuzzy feeling inside? Check>Enjoying life alongside a great hobbyCheck>Soulful progression that doesn't treat me like a slave?CheckWell the results are in I guess, Ruthless is the best (you'd love it)
Here's my pitch for the hail-mary of leagues. You just release a league with a bunch of temporary ascends, like 12 random ascends that just get yeeted after the league. You get a bunch of fomo and extra buildsIt'd satisfying the people that wanted new shit but it probably wouldn't succeed at revitalising stale gameplay so idk
This game has been on a downward trajectory ever since PoE 2 was announced
>>483760091These games were always boring and carried hard by visuals. The combat is literally "see thing/press correct button"
>>483946605Unfortunately anon I must be the one to tell you that you're very retarded and I don't enjoy the power creep that exists within the game, hence me stating that the other anon should be doing 16s by day 2 if they have the same amount of experience with the game as most of the older players do and why I'm just waiting to see what PoE 2 has to offer. Referencing BoR was me pointing out that it used to be the holy grail of uniques years ago along the likes of lightning coil, shavs and skyforth and now it's in everyone's filter due to the power creep.
>>483947550so your problem when you say "power creep" is some uniques becoming obsolete and not the general state of the gameyou say i am the very retarded one but seems exactly opposite to mesome nolifers having strats to do something day 2 doesn't prove the game is easy, it may be solved to some nolifers but its objectively harder than it was during the rollout of ascendancy
>>483947938>"power creep" is some uniques becoming obsoleteIt's an element>and not the general state of the gameNever said that and only a retard that is hellbent on proving a point that someone already agrees with could extrapolate something like that from nothing.Like I told the other anon: by all means have fun but if you want to play the content that the game is currently being made for (the nolifers) you will need tons of knowledge. He is currently struggling with red maps, it will take him several days at least of actually researching mechanics and stats before he can even interact with the new content from this patch which is T17s, content that even the nolifers dislike.Or, of course, he can just copy-paste a build from streamerman and maze out with the rest of the normies that get stuck with a 3 mil dps RF build that slowly rotisseries everything until they quit or sink the rest of the league into bumping that up to 5 mil.
>>483949543>only a retardmaybe learn to convey your thoughts in a clear manner, retard
>>483950346Or, crazy notion I know, stop schizophrenically projecting your emotions onto everyone and thing so you can justify acting like a mongoloid all the time. To be fair to you this is the kind of site where drooling helmet-wearers go but at least wipe your mouth before you speak.
>>483951229only thing i "projected" was that i think "power creep" is a fucking lieand you did in no way make it clear you agree or disagree with the statement, you just went on some weird fucking tangents and then claim i am the retarded one for not keeping up with YOUR schizoprhrenia :)
>>483951229>Throws shit at the wall like an uncouth nigger>Begins scrawling insane premises with feces>Gets mad when no one knows what the fuck you're talking aboutQuit niggering it up and make a coherent and cogent point please, for the love of god.

And by all means you may make a point as well if you'd like instead of having your axe wound fester, I permit it.
>>483956253I have no pony in the race, you horse faced nigger.The semantic masturbation was getting on my nerves, like many of the troons on this board. Do better nigger.

I wonder if GGG is panicking seeing people's reception to the difficulty in the Elden Ring DLC
>>483956957better question would be why are they retarded and cannot observe their own game, do more of whats popular and less whats not popularthat would be all they need to do to continue having successwhy do they need to scramble for ideas outside their own domain like a bunch of blind fuckers in an unfamiliar place grasping for something to grab onto
>>483957305This. They should turn Path of Exile into a battle royale with a ton of loot boxes and hero shooter mechanics.
>>483956957> people's reception to the difficulty> people
>>483957568Wonder if this is because China's access to games is primarily mobile games
the sweats really do a great fucking trick on game devs by making them buy the idea that harder game with more sweaty content is more funwhenever game devs buy into this fallacy their games inevitably go into death spirals of filtering their own audiences until there is no one left except the sweats but then the sweats also leave cause there is no one to flex their sweaty feats to and the games simply fizzle out
>>483957454the fuck?how the fuck did you even come up with that from what i wrote?
>>483957305Have you ever heard Jonathan talk about PoE?>"It's not good enough for me">"I personally don't like PoE1">"I really don't like people that play this game">"I wish I was on a different project most days"Everyone makes fun of Elden Ring but the game I hear him mentioning more than anything is Dead Cells. That fucker LOVES Dead Cells. Dead Cells is okay but I'm pretty sure I have less than 70 hours in the game and I've done a full boss cell run sooooo ... where is this imaginary playerbase that is going to play your Dead Cells inspired horseshit every league?The answer is: it doesn't exist.And GGG is going to learn that the hard way
>>483957768huh?
>>483957794if truewowthey must remove him from the company asapi mean key figure goes around shitting on the thing that pays his bills and people gathered for in the first placeif this is the reality of things then they deserve to learn the hard way
Remember when GGG started planting influencers? Remember when they started banning anyone who spoke ill of them? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
the pajeet asmon editor trying too hard today
Hope you brought your gloshes.It's time to rollslop.
niGGGers
>>483957641It's my concern as well and I've been saying this for quite some time. I even got mass reported and banned because of talking about it, but today, even the most docile simps dropped the game and change the narrative by mass reporting all posts criticising the game's direction. I can see how the returning, supposedly hardcore god gamers who have grinded their way through all challenges are going to hate it and will drop it after a massive temper tantrum. They won't ever admit being in the wrong, and they will go out with a bang. Afterwards a rope around their neck, as they can't get their 10k dollars and hours out of the franchise any more.
>>483958257Yeah, you can easily tell how they're obviously forced by checking clips of this guy, balormage, etc., even the top clips are so soulless. All of them are uninteresting, have no personality, and, overall, nothing of value to say. I hope GGG will do better in the future.
>>483958257>>483961739There are perks however...

>>483745129>>483760091Yeah, wish I never played Elden Slop desu. I'd have that sweet, sweet memory of DS3 (the GOAT) as my last game. Playing through Elden Slop tm left a bad taste in my mouth. The worst part is they intentionally put by far the best legacy dungeon right next to the start (Stormveil castle). So during the first 5% of the game you reach a high that you are then left chasing for the reminder of the game. While the game just turns more and more to shit with bad balance and recycled bosses.
UH OH D4bros all the streamers are saying that D4 season 5 is a throwaway garbage season. PoE automatically wins next season.
>>483981915thank fuck no more lol stream

>>483961961guy on the right looks pretty good for being a path of exile player. he must not play much

>>484031967So except for ruthless, this is undeniably the worst league ever? Yikeleronis.
>>484035245it was fine for what it was designed to be, filler until beta. no beta, no gauntlet, no races, nothing. still fucking weeks until we even get the name of the next league...

Im gonna marry Atziri!
Werent we supposed to get some fuckin news on the new league this month? Fuckin lazy retards. They'll prolly shit out a new interview with random sound designer with random twitch streamer first.
>>484048128all i know is that the longer this goes on the less i care.if poe 1 and poe 2 are separate games then they need to treat them as such, dumping 98% of the companies resources into tech demos of the first few acts of poe 2 is getting old.
>>484023845you don't look bad, take care of yourself brother
>>484035926I have more sympathy for this little monkey boi than I do for ts_larry. Am I good?
>>484050024poe2 might as well be chink vaporware at this pointwe've had TWO fucking acts since 2019 and countless system overhaulsyou just know it's a nightmare internally if this is what ggg wants to show us publicly
>>484051236just two more weeks sister
>>484051236they don't even have all the ascendancies finished.>we will figure it outafter 4 years we are going to get an early access in 5 or 6 months(if they don't delay it again) and it's going to be 3(probably only 2) acts and a handful of classes. no ascendancies, no maps, no league mechanics, no end game. they killed path of exile for this.
>>484052821>all those baldovision choices will never be reverted and instead you will play the ggg approved skills or fuck offi hate that bald nigger so much but i hate jewlizard and frogmode.jpg more
>”we actually don’t know what endgame looks like yet haha” *smiles confidently*
overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer...
remember when we were supposed to have the beta by now
>>484051236>>484070201Eight years and all they got is two acts and no endgame. I bet they haven't even thought of balancing bosses for melee classes yet. I bet they rush out the rest of the acts again, and you'll fight the same bosses over and over again. It's going to be Maligaro and his goons six times all over again. Game over!
>>484048128theyre probably trying to make sure it actually wins people back after this dogshit necro league.I'm going to assume its gonna be some kind of legacy league with a lot of cheap rewards to get people excited. idk man. these fucks have made so many trash leagues and events since breach.
>>484048128newfag spottedteaser 2 weeks before streamstream 1 week before league launch
>>484031967man, sanctum was pretty fun.
Next news when
>>484080796Two weeks at least. And probably a month or more until a new league gets hyped, crashes and burns to the ground. Streamers will tell you it's the second coming to poe 1, only to switch their mind once clicks go down.
>>484057134
>>484081442iirc they said late july, so if they aren't completely fucked we should get a league name tweet in a week, teaser in 2 weeks, reveal in 3, launch in 4. 26th is the last friday of july so?my guess is that they are going to push it back to mid/late august.
>>484092856I'm so fucking bored, holy shit
