I'M HAVING FUN FUCK OFF
comparison is the thief of joy
Can't wait for the repeat :)
>yfw they don't add swords
0.5 will save the game
Remember that one time GGG put out the worst league since LoK and 2jeets defended it because it dropped currency and t0 uniques. That was pretty funny.
RELEASE DUELIST NOW
If you didn't beat T12 Mephisto with an ethical build you can't claim to be a good ARPG player. Ben couldn't even tickle T12 Mephisto's taint.
Why is Ranger the only class that gets to keep its PoE1 ascendancies?
letthemcook
GGG just needs more time in the kitchen
>>565975829is D4 actually in a fun state to play right now? If I start now do I need to play the crappy original D4 campaign?
>>565975761I will literally never play launch PoE 2 if temple is still mandatory. I literally have NO LIFE and I still wouldn't stoop so low as to play such a shit game.
They're adding swords AND flails this patch, right?
>>565975998NoYes
>>565976028We just want Swords.
0.5 but they import PoE 1's tree 1:1. How does the game look?
>>565975826
>>565975998The game forces you to play through campaign once per account. If you've never done it ever you have no choice but to do it once. The game is ok now. It's finally at TLI/Last Epoch level.
>>565976172We want both
why is there lunaris solaris and whoever the 3rd chicka is in a circle around a ground portal to hell with a ritual gateway to itwhat in the living fuck is that trailer?
oh great another fubslop league
>>565976294lil gup didn't play affliction league...
>>565976389i did but why would solaris and lunaris be directly next to a portal to the wildwoods?
>3 week delay between hype stream and leagueWhy? My hype batteries are going to run out.
>>565976218ShitJust like poo 1
Fubgun has already dropped a mirror in the new league. Are we keeping up?
Duelist and swords are pretty much confirmed with Kelly's shitposts. But will we get more than that? If 1.0 is truly next up after 0.5 then we need more classes fast.
>>565976518Recall Jonathan's words.
Poe2 is certainly one of the games of all time
>>565976490sis you didn't even talk to the npcs in afflictionthey spell this shit out for you....it's the VIRIDIan WildwoodViridi is sister to Lunaris and Solaristhink sissyboi
>>565976518GGG always holds some stuff secret for livestreams i doubt they would do these obvious wink wink its not the duelist guys posts and then not have something up their sleeve for the livestream to make every flip the fuck out over its the whole point of livestreams its now apart of the mantra for ggg for years now
>>565976704oh fuck this faggot is right, i wonder if they actually make the affliction they wanted to before where it was endless like delve?https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Viridi
>>565977015>The Winter of the World is the first event in recorded Maraketh history. The war spans the years between the rise of the Lightless to their defeat at the hands of Solerai and Lundara.>After the Lightless's initial attack on the primeval civilization, The Clayshaper, along with the Maraketh's "scant survivors" of the Lightless's initial attack, formed an alliance to found the Order of the Djinn[2] and repel the Lightless's invasions on the Vastiri Plains. Using her golems and the "relics of power"[3], Ahkeli helped the Maraketh triumph. All life on the Vastiri - the humans, serpents, hyenas, and golems - united together to fight back against the Lightless, forming an alliance known as the Third Pact.[4]>During a period of hopelessness, twin sister Sekhemas Solerai and Lundara arose, Solarai wielding aspear with the "essence of gold" and Lundara with a weapon with the "essence of silver". The Winter of the World was ended by the Three Sisters resulting in Kulemak's defeat and the Lightless being driven back underground and the survival of the Maraketh and the Order of the Djinn.[5]>The Three Sisters also created the Viridian Wildwood to provide a refuge for the Azmeri people during the Winter of the World[6] and the dangers of Wraeclast after a volcanic eruption[7], as well as diverting the Scourge away from Wraeclast[8].
>>565977079>>The Three Sisters also created the Viridian Wildwood to provide a refuge for the Azmeri people during the Winter of the World[6] and the dangers of Wraeclast after a volcanic eruption[7], as well as diverting the Scourge away from Wraeclast[8].thats a interesting line from it
>>565976492time is needed
>>565977015>delve affliction>it's the king of the mist maze mechanics
>>565975734
>>565977765i remember in a interview they said they wanted the wildwood mechanic in affliction to be endless like delve so it wouldnt surprise me
https://poe-bingo.weosoft.org/#poepost em
The Precursors dropped off the kids Innocence, Sin, and ____ at the Azmeris' house after everything exploded. They were called the "First Children".Then at some point Solaris, Lunaris, and Viridi popped out of nowhere among the Azmeri and are referred to as the "Last Children"Something really weird happened here. Did they get cloned? LARPers? Evil twins from Dimension X? Crossdressing antics?
>>565976028For me, it's flails.
I don't know anything about the lore, but I like reading you fellas' lore posts
>>565977465Weren't sin and innocence with the azmeri or did they retcon that in 2
I'm lvl 33 on ffxiv
>>565978845im pretty sure sin mentions being with the azmeri in poe2
The lore was better when the best was a giant flesh mountain of mystery instead of sin somehow "creating" it but now we find out it's just a "seed of corruption" whatever the fuck that means
>>565976634did big j pull a no mans sky sean murray when he said full release was 6-12 months away
>>565979121>the bestTHE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST OF YOU
>>565979121precursors created the beast with the intent of killing it to harvest its beast juices, probably as a way to consolidate divinitysin was a precursor involved with the creation of the beast and perhaps he took a sippy of the beast juice which made him a god but also deleted his menories
>>565979668Sin was elevated to Godhood by happenstance. Innocence's apotheosis was predicated on being the good counterpart to Sin.The Beast was made afterwards when Sin went to go fuck Kalandra after he was date raped by Arakaali
they should move on from wraeclast mythos and make new ones for poe2 we already have kalguur and trathus as a new start
>>565979981King of Kalguur is the ultimate end boss of PoE2
Boss approved my vacation next week for league launch
>>565980263anon...the launch is in a month
>>565975998Its not actively terrible anymore but it still has the depth of a puddle by PoE standards. It's fundamentally still trying to be more of a theme park than a true GGG competitor, so you'll likely get bored of builds and grinding very quick.
>>565980550The trailer said may 8th anon
>>565956246>>565956341>>565956342girl aside, Halcyonish has nice fresh views on poe1&2. Especially the way she presents her ideas. I first noticed when she did the league retro(spective) video. I like how she merges tech concepts (like retros) to the content. Take the bingo card as another example. People usually just randomly put items on the card, their wish/prediction/shit/whatever, instead, she has a orderly way to do the bingo card.
>>565975998D4 is a fun weekend game, like LEBlast through whatever they add for the season, quit once the grind gets annoying
can I 100% Sumeru before 0.5
WHEN I SAY JONATHANYOU SAY SORRYJONATHAN
>>565980757This is a TalkativeTri thread.Take your godless whore back to babylon
>>565980832bro i dont even have mond at 100%
>he is a jingakh
I'm starting to pre-doom, I don't think were getting a new class or weapon.>New Endgame>Reworked Leagues>"We wanted to focus on bettering existing content">So we didn't have time for new classes, weapons or ascendancies.
>>565981120Counterpoint: ALL CLASSES BUFFED
so these two games are forever going to be zoom zoom casino brain flashy screen trash, yes?
>>565980643the reveal is on the 8th...the launch is at the end of the month
>>565981105He might be, but SHE isn't
>she
>>565981260What
>>565980263you fucked up, anon
Belton with another 24 hour stream. Nobody in the community grinds harder
>>565981202I'm going to drop poe2 after 1.0 if it has the same zoom zoom mechanics as poe1
good riddance fuck off faggot
>>565981447retard
Reminder: No new ActNo new CharacterNo new WeaponsThis is massive endgame/league stuff only.Keep your expectations in check.
>>565982451I already said this retard, stop stealing my posts.
>>565982451There will be at least 1 new character with their weapon
>>565981447>play on PC and consoles May 29 (PDT)
LET GGG COOK
finna gonna play 0.5 on my new steam controller
>>565982938Oh no
>>565982945as someone who's worked in a kitchen that veg chopping made me extremely uncomfortable
>>565982945Thats a man btw.
>>565983182Why on earth would you assume it was the 8th
>>565983606I saw the 8th in the announcement and didn't see the other date
it will be on the 15th of may
Hard.
i buyed d4 expac. i feel ashamed
>>565985075why would you buy it sis?
>>565985075do you think anyone believes this doomjeet shitliterally nobody is playing diablo, no oneget a job
>>565985212idk i wanna kill monsters and ive been very tired and brainless lately while i wait for poe2>>565985231i dont want a job
POE lore is gonna get weird when they reveal the Precursors were actually a hyper advanced technological civilization with computers and spaceships. You're gonna see young Sin wearing a labcoat and everything in flashbacks.
>>565985231Cope.
>>565987054>this magical, dark fantasy setting was actually once a hyper-advanced space faring civilization in the long past gimmickplz no
>>565987054i bet they are like the reapers from mass effect and the edicts are steps to resetting life and death and bringing them back in a weird ritual, thats my theory on it, there is no other reason for them to rise from the ground after the spear is made so technically if im right then you are right because they will be advanced, but thats only if they gave birth to civilisation on wraeclast like prometheus it would be so fucking kino if it is that

>>565997404'VKE
>>565997085hinged people wouldn't play this game
Poo2 will forever be a piece of fucking dogshit ass game as long as it doesn't have dedicated minion and shapeshift asendancies.
>>565998395r'tard
>>565997404I'm about to deploy a PoE2 full release, if you know what I mean
>>565998448Retard
>>565998480r'tard
>>565998528Retard
What should I play in Diablo 2
>>565998395They said they didn't want the witch to be the main summoner this time as they're trying to buck trends or w/e.We already know Huntress is getting a Beast Summoner Ascendancy, My guess is both Templar and Shadow will have a summoner ascendancy too.Shadows will be construct focus and Templars etherial focused.
>>565998973>they didn't want the witch to be the main summoner this time>give witch all the summon skillswhat did they mean by this?
>>565999168Abilities are tied to weapons sir.
>>565999168That they're retarded
>>565998973Cool, 3 new ascendancies that are going to add nothing for non-minioncucksThe possibilities for this to not suck is really slimming down fast
really fucking saying something that literal blizzardslop is allowed to get net positive reception in the genre when GGG fucks up this badly by comparison. At this point just fucking delete the entirety of PoE2, refund everyone, salvage what assets you can and try to get the game back on track. And no, I'm not joking or shitposting, this is the correct course of action for the title.
>>565999501Play one of the 33 other non-minion classes then, retard.
>>565999530The only correct action is to finally EoS 1 and go all in on 2.
Why do you even want swords?
things that ggg hates:>melee>minions
>>565999843frotting with ranger
>>565999530Shut the fuck up doomsissy
things that all good arpgs have>swords>axesthings that poe2 doesn't have>swords>axesreally makes me ponder the circumstance
>>565999890>things that ggg hates:(You)yes that means (You) as well
>>565999253Literally none of witch's summon skills are tied to a weapon.
I'm gonna do elemental druid because i've never done it before
>>566000392I'm doing AG chains of command in poe2 next league
>>565999168Those are active skills so they are automatically tubbed and not real minions.
damn, the retard poster is busy lately. must have been laid off (if he was ever employed)
>>565999843We want flails and Templar, sis. Nobody cares about swords.
sword is probably my least played weapon of all 2bh
Doomsissies,, I think i'm joining your ranks, it's now clear that we are only getting Duelist, which means no templar and no flails. FUCK GGGNIERS
It's going to be such a massive update, they always do this>tease as little and as vague as possible>over deliver with new "league" and new revamp for endgameThe only I want are challenges so I can get that sweet free MTX
Fuck minions, where's RF?
>>566001374you will never get more than 1 class per league because that would dilute hypeggg is also pulling a blizz and is staggering releases for money plzanyone defending ggg at this point is simply retarded
>>566001936that's not so methodical of you anon
>>565991064You dont gamble after getting 40/40?
I'm so sorry, poeg... I was weak...
>4 reheated leagues>no brand new league>one or two new pinnacles>still infinite atlass>no new class>no tota>no act 5
>>566001486Setting ourselves up for a crash and disappointment, aren't we? Mtx ported... My ass!
>>566003530Does this just launch their own launcher?Im getting fucking bored, might buy if not.
>>566003948gonna be fun gaping you to death in a day and a half, doomsissy
uber pinnacle bosses are cringe
>>566004141It doesn't, but you need a battle net account to play
pope2 should have a stamina mechanic
why is infernalist so shit?
>>566006314no life on tree + ignite is cringe
>>566006314Because jonatroon is a literal retard that would rather give us rancid dog feces instead of a minion class
poop2 should have hunger and hydration bars
>>566006551a "minion class" is retarded
>>566006920Retard
I'm gonna leak the name of the league a few hours before the livestream please remind me later. It has something to do with augments.
I wonder if we’ll get a bonus teaser today.
how the fuck do wisps work in poe2? do you kill more of the infected monsters to get the wisp to drop an idol?
>generic projectile attack ascendancy gud>generic poison, bleed and ignite ascendancy gud>generic minion ascendancy badWhat causes this derangement?
>>566008521>>generic poison, bleed and ignite ascendancy gudthese are also bad
>>566008521with that logic we already have minion ascendancies, minion nodes on lich and the obvious double dipping nature of the command oriented sorc one
>>566003948I'm a journalist that got a preview of the reveal stream and i can confirm all of this is true
>>566008901What obvious double-dipping? That ascendancy provides zero boosts to other minions and minions aren't really that great in the first place. Half the people running the Disciple minion nodes on ninja don't even bother with other minions.
damaging ailments formula rework NOW
>>566003948>no brand new leagueThis would be hilarious and the cope would be astronomical.
>>565999843Maces are slow and i think in abstract people blame that for melee problems. Swords are basically the fastest archetype
>>566009981but we also have spears, quarterstaff, wolf, bear, and wyvern for melee. i also don't know what "melee problems" are or how swords will fix them.
>>565999843Basic bitch faggots want basic bitch weapon
>>565999843For the record, I'm not among the people screeching for swords regularly.I don't want swords specifically, I want more weapons and skills. The game has a very modest selection right now (for what it is, a POE sequel). Any improvement of that is welcome, and swords will be a part of that improvement.Additionally, I really prefer melee over ranged/spells and want more options for it. I'd actually prefer daggers over swords, but I'll take either. I'd even take 10 more mace skills instead of a new weapon type.
>>566007594You ignore them because they don't do anything
>>566010132I like path of exile and I like melee but I don't like any of the melee on offer in poe 2. Swords gives them a chance to make some skills I actually want to play. That said I don't care if it's swords or axes or flails or claws or polearms or nunchucks or boxing gloves I just want a build that I want to play.
Why do people want another melee class in poe2 when melee feels like shit? It needs a major overhaul and I doubt GGG have the resources to do it in a matter of a few months.
>>566010785WA AoC is GOATED though
>>566010785Melee is good in poe2
>>566009579just because half the people on some fag site dont run the minion nodes doesnt mean they dont exist as a natural pairing for other minion skills that already have command skills
>>566010785All it needs is for mobs to stop blocking you unnecessarily and knocking you back.
>mace
quarterstaff should be fun but it feels so cringe. i don't want to twirl my gay stick while grunting.
>>566007291Faggot
>>566008521The game was made bad on purpose. As a joke. When Chris left he convinced Jonathan to use all of his worst ideas so that he could incorporate the real ideas into his magnum opus at light pattern. Trust the plan, Chris will save us from the rollslop
I'm not ready for my hope to be crushed by Jonathan's tub.
>>566011839Chris will create the baldest game with insane grind, gacha, to neets addicting mechanics, and he will manipulate you into defending him. You will gaslight yourself enough to grind until you whither away of old age and no money to your name. This is his bald plan.
>>566011910>Tub teaser One and a half day until he releases his bowel movements onto everyone to enjoy.
jonathan is going to win so bigly tomorrow
jonathan and mark have been cooking for 6 months, some of the content has been in the works since 0.3 at least, the poo1 stuff was made by the new leads since they had no time to touch that stinky game.doomsissies will be completely and utterly btfo'd in under 36 hours
D4? Wonned, bigly.
flail skills better be cool, I feel like it's all going to be a variation of spinning... with lightning
>>566013138You're gonna have to keep the flail spun up with well-timed button presses, and it'll do dramatically less damage if you miss a beat.You can hit your head and heavystun yourself if you aim it wrong.
poo2 should have an ambient temp bar
PooperPooper.
>>566013494Based.
>>566012516Sounds exactly like poo2
>>566013315that sounds terrible enough to be true
>>566013315fuck... it's going to be like this
>>566013315Flail is actually going to be a fully physics based weapon. The meta will be to spin your character around as fast as possible.
>>566013138>>566013315It mentions they're slow in the tooltip, so they'll be straight up slower than maces
>>565976634>We're gonna have 1.0, but without ALL the contentThat's not really 1.0 then john, you drtibbling knucklescraping bitch, fuck any game maker that claims 1.0 despite not meeting plans, get the fuck out of here
I hope they make Essences and Rogue Exiles more interesting as well.Imagine if they replaced Rogue Exiles with Mercs
>>566017380I've got some news for you
>>566017631>minionslopno thanks, I'm not an islamic fundamentalist living in sweden
>>566017631Hasn't this been in the files since release?
>>566017765Yeah
RotA sounds like a retro league where the "ancients" are old league stuff, like return of the old leagues, except poe2 doesn't really have old leagues. The lastest trailer also sounded like TotA and Tota and RotA sound the same. Follow me for more expect analysis

>>565975998It's the best ARPG on the market by a lot.
>>565980770I think you can spend your weekend much better for over $100
poop2 is bad
IT'S. FUCKING. EVERYWHERE!!!!!!!!!!
>>566019937it's multiple weekends since there are numerous seasons between expansions
first league where i finally got 4 voidstones and experience the endgame "story" (it's 99% cryptic bullshit sequelbait stuff). It's been fun but farming harvest is boring and i dont think i can bear doing it for another 10 hours so i can bump my dps to the dozens of millions until i can finally run delirium mirage maps and farm all over again. What are some fun builds i should waste my piddling 20 divs on?
>>566021541The endgame story does suffer from too many plots all happening at the same timeWe got Shaper/Elder, Elderslayers, Maven, Exarch/Eater, Zana. Actually too much content yet they can't purge any of it because each it too important for crafting
>>566021780retard
>>566021825<3
>>565975716Vaal content **always** flop, even when miss four titties shows up. It's weird because the lore is always interesting, maybe it's the inca-maya-etc. aesthetic that people hate
>>566021780it's really funny how even the whole mirage plotline really doesnt matter because the whole elder shaper bs just eclipses them. Most League mechanic stories simply do not matter in scale to it.The only exception to this is Breach (hive just reshuffles the internal status quo) and Beyond (literally no lore support since release).
>>566022594i loathe the art style, but what really killed my enjoyment for the recent poo2 vaal shit was the excessive loading screens
>>566022819yeah it's almost like all content relevant to the actual story is part of the permanent expansions or something instead of temporary league mechanics haha....
0.5 will be another 0.2screenshot thisit will be hype on reveal but when we'll get to play the new class it will be another huntress situationdon't ask me how I know this
Yeah I'm thinking Europa Universalis 5 won.
>>566023385How do you know this?
>>566023462he was marinating in the tub since 0.1
>>566023385cope
How the fuck did it drop to 60 divs and now go back up to 800+ divs?
>>566023462I won't tell you how but I will tell you whythe new class that everyone already figured out leans even more into charge play than huntress
>They still think there's a new classGuys... please...
>>566023894ALL CLASSES ADDEDALL CLASSES BUFFED
>>566023619we do a lil market manipulation :)>>566023698That's fine, I haven't done any charge builds yet so it might be fun
0.5 will be the league of all time
I can't find the drive to play PoE 2. I've gone through the campaign a few times, but once I reach endless maps (Delve) I lose all interest. Having to do the ridiculous Trials for ascendancy points as well - especially fucking Sanctum and Ultimatum - makes me want to kms.
>>566024021>That's fineokie dokie smokie
Very interesting. This thread on /v/ started about shitting on D4's monetization, but now it turned into blizzfags shitting on PoE. The points are literally the same the doomers in here make. >>>/v/738308431Are the doomers here just asshurt D4fags?

Trying to find info on poe2 on the internet is like pulling teethIt's 90% AI garbage, content creators with 30 views basedfacing, and links to poe1Anyway, is there a trick to get rid of the lava for Mektul? Or should I just skip and come back when I can oneshot him. I'm like 12 levels under the area level because I'm just sprinting through the campaign.

>>566031059If you can’t beat him in the campaign then you might as well give up. I doubt you’ll even get through the campaign let alone the endgame.U suck

>>566031059>12 levels under the area leveltry leveling retard
>>566031259I feel like playing video games that often feature bright flashing lights would aggravate your migraines a bit
>>566031615There are different triggers. For aura migraines you're absolutely right, as there are a lot of shared triggers with epilepsy. For me it's mostly tension triggered (neck and eye strain), poor sleep and diet, lack of exercise etc.It's not ideal, but seeing as I can't work a real job anymore I don't really have anything else to do.
>>566031298The game is too easy if I actually kill everything though, I just wasn't expecting a boss with an enrage timer. Guess the rolling tricked me into thinking I wasn't playing an mmo

>>566031989nicely demonstrates why skill based gameplay and arpg design is at oddsyou can't let someone bypass grind with skill or the rat maze gamers get pissed off
Leveling in PoE is dead, unfortunately. Being able to quickly recreate zones and grind is the point of ARPGs, but thanks to retard zoomers everything just runs past mobs so the game started to become tailored around that and now it is in a feedback loop. People should have to run ledge a couple of times or they get trashed in the prison is what I mean (example zones extrapolate that to whatever zones you want in PoE2) instead you can literally run right through and there's no downside since it's so damn easy.
>>566035434I don't think having to rerun ledge is fun though, at least come up with actually interesting progression
>>566035845What does "fun" mean. No, YOU come up with it then. What we have now is what lazy zoomers want. You should have to grind in a game genre about grinding and getting loot.The fact that you can go into a zone 12 levels under and not instantly get vaporized means the game is too easy, period.
>>566036079>What does "fun" mean I think you're too far gone if you're asking this questionhaving to re-run campaign ledge isn't fun period>no YOU come up with it you suck my dick nigger your idea is ass
