PoE 2 players don't even try to defend their game anymoreThey just look at you like this
>Tink>Tink>Tink>Tink
You vill do zis every league
hopesissies aint lost this hard since kalandra league
>new league is yet another press a button and get ambushed leaguehow is this different from d4's colored helltides and powers
Should I be excited or concerned I can't tell
So last league the league mechanic itself was an unbalanced mess that it raped the """economy"""" so badly that people fled to a private league not a month in. Are we supposed to trust them overhauling multiple?
POE 2/10POOP OF EXCREMENT
too many jingakhs...
D4 won.
IT'S UP!!!
>>566203297We all lost.
>>566203502nah ill be skipping temple and delitium, you can farm it for me.
comparison is the thief of joy
lily milkers
is dLily a girl yes/no?
It's good that no new systems are introduced. Imagine if we actually got swords and axes. They clearly want to make some epic dismemberment system with it. The league that launches with bladed weapons will introduce trillions of new assets assaulting the GGG servers.
>tons of new endgame shitwhy is this bad? no one gives a fuck about a new class or weapon types other than the secondaries>>566203502nothing wrong with that, why do you secondaries want everything on the platter?
>>566203578OH SHIT
how come gacha games add a new character every 2 weeks but poe2 cant add a new character in 6 months of development?
>>566202793>just woke up>who wonD4, unironically.But in reality, that just means every fan of the ARPG genre lost.
>>566203578based Chris putting Troonathan thru a humiliation ritual in exchange for keeping his failed franchise afloat
Reminder that Kelly is a dude
THEY FIXED EVERYTHING!!!!
>>566203625sin is the thief of virtue
>>566203502im not playing every poe2 league
>WE ARE SO BACK
Belton won
>>566203689>Defending bloat this badYou can just not respond to not out yourself as retarded you know.
>>566203502This repels the casual
>>566203297*ahem*
Alright I finished P8 ele fire DruidIt was fun though my damage was falling off a bit at the end thereDo I respec into air druid for nightmare or play something else
The tub is overflowing with new content
havent played this garbage since it released in 2024, does the skill tree still have nodes on it you can't even use because the corresponding staple ARPG weapons aren't implemented?
am I retarded or did 0.5 not have duelist or any new classes at all? 2 new ascendancies for existing classes, but no new classes and no new weapon types?
>>566203502jesus fucking christ this shit looks so convoluted
not gonna play poop2, too busy playing a real game
>>566203509because literally everything about poe2 is infinitely superior.
At least RF is back (kinda). Only positive about this update. Build guide in game might be good, but could be terrible.
>>566203715Because GGG only has so many people working. They are also trying to keep two games working simultaneously. Sometimes what they hoped to develop takes longer than they realize.
>druid released in december 2025>next class won't be until december 2026An entire YEAR-LONG WAIT in between classes.
Tubsisters our response?!
>>566203885'fraid so
Still won't be playing 2 but this patch looks the best one so far, the problem is that there are too many fotm sloppers and extreme dad gamer casuals these days who want their new weapons and classes instead of new endgame stuff, oh well. Anyways I see that Varga is still banned, only Empyrian the gypsy is left now
>>566203297This solidifies poe2 as the most slopified, chinkified, gacha-filled garbage pile of an arpg I have ever seen. How much fucking garbage socket shit are they going to add to the game, just to avoid adding a crafting bench? Who fucking asked for this trash? Two ascendancies with unique effects from socketables and there are 500 different ones? What a retarded fucking system. Not to mention the ascendancies themselves are absolute AI slop design for retards. A shitty "ward" system for skills now? The fuck is this shit lmao
>>566203916for everyone who just follows a guide to the letter (90% of the playerbase) the experience is just like diablo 4 except everything is a slog for no reason
I've never played Diablo 4. Is it really better than PoE2?
400 hours played and this game sucks
>>566203502Nope. I will play until I'm bored and quit.
I might buy the game to do the challenges, since this will be officially the first poo2 league because no challenges = not a real league
poowunners..... I don't feel so good...
I'm done man. Probably gonna kill myself
>>566204065by far
>>566204065No, it's somehow worse. Which is impressive.
NZ government forced all New Zealanders to be covid jabbed.60% of GGG's core god tier developers died over the years 2020-current and the NZ government is hiding it in and in collusion with China (who completely owns GGG) to cover it up/hide it.That's the only explanation for this shit show. GGG is being worked on by like 12 people and 40 Tencent operative slaves living on bunk beds in the office.
>>566204065D4 is better, if you like ARPGs. Not sure ehat poop2 is but it is not an ARPG.
>>566203578I don't care about jonathans opinions
>>566204135Where's the hype shouldn't people be logging in right now..
>>566204065yes
>>566204065It blows path of excrement out of the water
>>566204135>P-please look at PoE1!!Genuinely sad.
>>566204135why don't poowunners play poowun?
>>566204065Do you like having fun? So yes.PoE is for autists and for people who larp as being autists.
>>566204065D4 is not even a real attempt to make a game.
>>566204236sabotage.
maybe it's time to treat this game as poe1like and not the slow and methodical gameplay poe2
Yeah, it's looking like D4 won quite comfortably.
>>566203916you can't earnestly mean this
i am playing d2r for the first time cause poo2 is trashwhat build should i play
Atlas passive build guide - get them all bro
>infinite land>infinite ocean>infinite delve (next) undergroundthe next will be infinite space with planets with maven and shaper styled beings
>>566204135>Steam has less than 5% of Diablo 4 players>Steam has 70% of PoE 1 and 2 playersUMMMM, HOPESISSIES?
>>566204065unironically is it worth playing? I tried the demo when it came before launch but it seemed kind of meh and I've heard its dogshit, but the newest expansion was good or something?
>>566204336uhhh poebros... how do we cope...
>>566204047>just like d4 except d4 is complete shit while poe2 is goodI agree
What happened to Arcane Archer?
>the main issue with POE2 is it has no endgame>okey we've fixed the endgame>UHHHHHHH THIS IS BAD WHERE ARE THE NEW CLASSES????
Only one man can save poop2 at this point. Troonathan, make the call to Rod.

>>566204443>7 years of development>cant make a good endgamejust 2 more weeks?
troonathan is so repulsive to look at
>>566204065No. Its garbage
>>566204362base game is absolute dogshitfirst expansion is 8/10second expansion is 9.5/10its like playing Neverwinter Nights or some shit where you skip or rush through the shitty base game as fast as possible so you can get to the fun parts
>poetroons have such an inferiority complex towards D4 they literally PAID MONEY to shit on it
>>566203906Go get your fucking job stone
>>566204412Sabotaged.
>>566204443>towers are bad, hunting rares is boring and maps take too long.>uhhh towers were actually based and hunting rares was peak gameplay. i don't want to finish maps in 30 seconds.
Lord of Hatred contains:New campaign in Skovos region(which includes the return of Lilith).2 New classes: Paladin and Warlock.Warplans: Customize your own endgame.Horadric Cube: A new crafting system that has many recipes.Skill Tree Revamp: There are over 40 reworked choices and 80 additional options.Echoing Hatred: A horde-mode challenge featuring randomized monster spawns that increase in difficulty, designed to be leaderboard-friendly.New Talisman Gear: Charms that can provide set-bonuses.Fishing Mini-Game: Skovos has many fishes, can you catch them all?Significant QOL improvements: New loot filter, lvl cap increase, 12 new torment tiers, etcMan I really want to see 10 expansions for Diablo 4.
>>566204443>okey we've fixed the endgamestill cant choose map layoutsstill have to do 10 shit maps per 1 good mapfixed
>>566204528its over
ok it was fun dunking on /poeg/troons again. it's been awhile since I checked in. anyway, back to blasting on the 'lock in a real ARPG.
So GGG are just intent on making sure all prior efforts to get new players into the game are out the window right?What was the point of getting Geoff Keighley to show footage of the game. What was the point in any of it if the goal was just to make PoE2 and PoE1 the same game with the same problems?They literally had millions of players lining up for EA to play, and then they hemorrhaged them drastically. Rather than try to keep hold of new players, who are far more numerous, they decided to double down on the dwindling existing playerbase?I'm not seeing the logic here.
>>566204561>first expansion is 8/10there is no fucking way you just said that dogshit of chasing a asian women through the jungle to not fight mephisto and get zero pussy is 8/10 fucking neck yourself you subhuman faggot
>>566204443In reality:>endgame sucks>okay we've kept the same end-game that sucks but added twenty layers of currency RNG on top of it>but don't worry this is the biggest update ever it took us six whole months>OK so there's one class in the update as well?>No
>>566204443Is it hard for your subhuman brain to wrap itself around the concept that not everyone cares about the endgame grind and people just wanted more content to experience the campaign with
>>566204607job stone? Im just doing the main quest
I noticed they've been including big beam attacks in a lot of the boss kits.
>>566204687didn't read
>fix endgame pls>ok heres 15 different infinite endgamestoo much loleAlso new classes add variety to another repeat playthrough. Also its been 6 months, they could have done an endgame rework and a new class /weapon or two instead of shitting out 50 new endgames at once, Also you're retarded
>>566204443>we've "fixed" the endgame>You've removed the dogshit infinite atlas???>No, we've made it worse!
>>566204528kek yeah and chris is smug as ever knowing he got off the sinking ship at the top.
>>566204742Nobody plays ARPGs for the campaigns aside from literal 45 year old couch co-op dads. The genre has evolved. Get over it.
>>566204758One trick ponies recycling everything.
I can completely understand why they focused on Endgame this update and skipped classes completely. They needed tons of content to keep people occupied with mini-updates for 7 months until they release the full game, ascendancies/classes wouldn't have been enough content to fill those months. But i'm still sad that no duelist or templar yet..
So do you just farm the tree
>>566204758Shaper did it best still.
>>566204443>mechanics are the same (you just have to run on the wheel longer for any of the decent boss rewards)>mapping is the same (running bad map layouts 90% of the time with the added bonus that base level breach/exped/deli/ritual encounters will feel like shit if you dare do them outside of their spawned regions on the map that actually juice them)Bonus they also said they were nerfing the droprate on greater/perfect crafting currencies so enjoy a nerfed crafting league.
>mapping in PoE 1>put desired map in device>press go>mapping in PoE 2>do this quest>follow this exact route>do this other quest>and this one>complete this specific map>and NOW you can do one (1) map the way you want to
GIMME ME A KEY PLEASE
>>566204689>he says while posting "when Taygedo is not on screen, every character should be asking where Taygedo is: the game"
>>566204443I don't want to redo the sub atlas tree every fucking league
>>56620482199% of ARPG players are 45 year old couch co-op dads you fucking retard, that's the only reason Diablo is still a franchise
>>566204668Um, no, sweetie. It's actually TWO GAMES now. Jonathan is beautifuland valid.
>>566204742>cater to the dadgamers that quit after two weekends
>>566204821No one plays PoE, retard. The playercount drops to sub 10k the minute the game is out of new thumbnails to collect.It's a dying genre.
>>566204687the game isnt out yet, everything is for the 1.0 release (F R E E)
>>566204362newest expansion is good but has too much after death effects and they mostly 1shot you. Story is better but nothing that will wow you. Endgame grind is simple and satisfiying with some minor qol issues. Vessel of hatred (first expansion) is so fucking dogshit it almost killed the game.OVERALL base game 7/10Vessel of hatred 1/10Lord of Hatred 8.5/10
>We are happy to announce 1.0 THIS YEAR after Exilecon!!>The campaign is finished!! Huzzah for 1.0!!Goalposts sucessfully shifted.

>>566204103Keky
>>566204443>>566204504>>566204529>>566204618>>566204798as someone who doesnt play poe2 and from what i understand(a mix of reading forums and reddit) there are LOTS of secondaries in poe2 who just want new epic toys(classes and weapons), they don't really care about the endgame and those who get to the endgame want maps to take 2 hours, they're also really afraid of new mechanics being added(seen quite a few gamer dads complain about this)
>>566204687>POE1niggers actively despise POE2's gameplay and core design philosophies>POE1niggers resent POE2 for taking dev time from POE1>POE1niggers play POE2 just so they can refuse to engage with POE2's systems then whine when they're punished for it, like refusing to play anything but LS Huntress in 0.2 then crying that there's no build diversity>POE2 players love the game>POE2 players want more features in this game and more classes and stuff>POE2 players are so much better at engaging with the game that the devs fucking said on air in an interview that people who had never played POE were better at 2 than people with thousands of hours in POE1>GGG chooses to cater to POE1niggers by speeding up and slopping up POE2>POE1niggers will reward GGG for their attention by whining that POE2 isn't MORE like POE1 it would be fucking hilarious if it weren't so sad and pathetic that a good game is dying
>>566204909taygedo got closer to pussy than you ever will in the first quest
>>566204962They're the same people who buy cosmetics, which is the only way GGG makes money
The thing is: poe2 is not an ARPG.
Based on previous records, what are the chances that any of these multiple reworked endgame mechanic changes will work as intended with out broken shit
>>566205010Baldo has no reason to look like that. Path of Exile 2 is closer to everything he's talked about as his Vision.
>>566204528It's stressful being in management. Anyone in GGG leadership surely has daily phone calls with greedy chinks desperate to insert slot machines and gacha into the game even more than it already is.
>>566205010lmaoo
>>566205053>doesn't play>makes a comment about secondariesthe irony.I didn't read your post and you shouldn't consider this a (You).
>>566204942>muh diabloHardly even an entry in the genre and PoE has been bending it over the fucking radiator for almost a decade straight now. You are off your rocker man lmao.
>>566205053retard
>>566204443the patch is wonderful and you are correct to call these faggots out, im just sad there is no swords i wanted a berserk guts ultra greatsword league but im fine with having a giga endgame instead with challenges ill take that monkey paw
>>566205107Zero. Post-2021 GGG is utterly incapable of designing anything but 'click the obelisk and kill the rapeape waves'. They are in a comstant state of rework because every implementation is worse than the last.
>Make fun of people who want lots of content in maps>Make fun of them because it's not what you want which is maps with zero gameplay you just zone in and out with your 5 free Awakened Mirrors of Kalandra in 60s flat
>OMG WHERE'S THE NEW ACT I NEED IT GGG PLEASE>I LITERALLY CANNOT PLAY WITHOUT THE NEW ACT, I WANT TO RUN THROUGH ALL THOSE NEW ZONES IN AN HOUR TO GET TO THE ENDGAME AS FAST AS POSSIBLE
>>566205212>>566205246as a poe1 veteran I'm allowed to comment whatever i want, and the fact is that there are an insane amount of secondaries in 2
Since this is clearly a very hype patch, huge even, predict player peak counts.
this is the first real poop2 league, depending on how the challenge set looks I will buy the game
>>566205327>Make fun of them because it's not what you want which is maps with zero gameplay you just zone in and out with your 5 free Awakened Mirrors of Kalandra in 60s flatPoE2 players hated 0.4 until Temple was exactly this
>>566205357>also i hate the campaign and need a campaign skip
>>566205107If anything they'll be under-rewarding to the work and setup they require
wow GGG really went downhill. what happened?
>>566204687I'm a poe1 fan and I'm in no way a fan of any of this fucking trash. This game is a mess of retarded decisions from the ground up. 500 bajillion new RUUUUUUUUUNESSSSS. Ward skills? fuck right off
I was at work so i missed the trailer but reading the thread on my phone was pretty fun. I still don't know whats going on desu but everyone was dooming
>>566205378you should have said you played 1. ugh.
remember when it was d4 vs elden ring

All the endgame mechanics are so more involved and so different to previous its kinda like they're doing 6 leagues in one at the same time

>>566205606They made too many changes at once. Even if you think its cool to learn and do all the new shit, the chance is high that they will all be bugged and they ave bitten off way more than they can chew being able to fix, adjust and rebalance all that stuff.

as a poe2 disliker(not hater just disliker) this patch unironically looks great(no meme) but obviously the casual gamer dad crowd are fuming that they're not getting their epic berserk guts swords>>566205553well duh of course i played 1 how else would i be a path of exile veteran? >>566205896if you're not happy about endgame shit you're a secondary honestly(the only thing that matters in this franchise is the endgame) only secondaries care about campaign, le epic new weapons and classes
>>566205912Which raises the question, why would someone who isn't a 100-hour grinder even subject himself to this? Like what the fuck? Is it just to be able to say you play a big boy game?
Well I'm having fun. I think I shall play a martial artist with the 10% crit mana mace.

Serious question for the shitposters, do you actually believe doomjeeting is going to get people to play D4 or whatever other slime-coated pile of shit you like?
https://pathofexile2.com/ancients#otherlot of content there 30 new maps is something i missed in the livestream

>>566206372they wil just add tattoos to breaches or some shit
Rent free
I think the idea is that you can focus on whatever endgame league you like and get good stuff whichever direction you go, and not feel like you have to do everything. Maybe. IDK its a lot. New class or two would have been nice but at the end of the day no one even plays melee so why yall sowrd fixated is it because you like penis?

>>566203297>WE ARE SO BACKAre we? Where are the swords? Templar or Duelist anywhere? What the fuck is this league, two new ascendancies and everything else is end game only? Some uniques look cool I guess but what's with all the new crafting currency? Let me guess its only dropped from pinnacle bosses and it's worth more to sell than use it? Jesus Christ...
I want to play the new minionsbut I'm 99% sure they are going to be absolutely dogshit and force me to reroll the character mid leaguemonk and ranger are pretty much the only classes I haven't played until end game yet

>>566204045This, holy shit I don't want to sift through 2000 rune effects that say "+40% totem placement speed on Wednesday". what the fuck is their problemOh and have fun with your MANDATORY league crafting mechanic to add 200 rune ward that has to stay on all your items for the rest of the game. I hope they make that shit take up an affix slot in future leagues so we don't have to keep doing it.

>>566206918You are a PoE2 secondary, literally by the defintion you are forming opinions based on secondary sources rather than playing it. Retard
>>566206952
>>566206228so i don't have to deal with chinkified currency slopification and can have one unified system for crafting like a normal sane human being that doesn't want to read a fucking treatise on tri-res boot crafting every fucking league?

>>566206940i've heard it plenty of times before and looks like i was using it correctly. poe2 fans are basically secondaries>>566207034as a path of exile veteran i formed my opinion on poe2 after playing it for like 5 hours(being a veteran of path of exile grants me this right)>>566207132well thats a shame but at least theres some sorts of endgame stuff being added, no one gives a fuck about shitty swords and classes(except secondaries)
Where's Gladiator bros...? Where's swords....?
>>566207275>it's randomtubbed
poop2 is still bad
>>566207275>rerolling a dogshit map layout>it's still a dogshit may layout
>>566207295I see you came empty-handed to the argument table. Poe2 crafting is now more obtuse than poe1. And poe1 was already a gigantic pain in the ass. The whole point of 2 was to simplify these systems and yet they have made them more dogshit than everWhat is even the point of poo2?
>>566207309>as a player of game x, that makes me an expert on game yretard
I have a sword equipped on my 'lock in D4 (real ARPG)
>>566207431Sorry, bro, I just woke up from a nappie and complete misread the chain of comments like a retard. I'm on your side. Carry on.
So Jonathan said that new class wasn't even planned and each class takes multiple cycles. Just how fucking far behind they are? Are we going to have at most one new class in 1.0?
AIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
PoE2 is like 40k 10e
Brothers, I just came in and complain about that "cheat death" craft, that makes you immortal for a couple seconds when you dieThat shit, is going to be mandatory in every league from now on untill the game dies because the game will assume you have it and will tweak damages and shit with that in mindThat is so ass and gayAlso I don't care about endgame shit
>>566207429Baldo really has a weird smile.
>>566207496What unique mechanic does that sword have? Yeah, thought so. It's just a statstick.
Why does Jonathan hate swords?
>>566207039HG /gig/ is so fucking kino
To be fair, PoE2 is not an ARPG. Keep that in mind when you critique it.
>>566207402the fact that running through a "bad" layout and one shotting a boss is too much for people is hilarious to me. 15-20 seconds to clear a map is too strenuous for the average poe1 dopamine zoomer.
Someone post the leaked gladiator 'sword gameplay'It's bad and no one will care about it post 1.0 anyway, not worth caring about, it's literally just warrior with bleed instead of stun
>>566207463im literally a path of exile veteran, im allowed to form my opinion on the sequel after just a few hoursalso i wouldnt consider myself an expert but every real poe fan doesnt give a shit about swords or new toys
>>566207563>Are we going to have at most one new class in 1.0?Shaping to be like that, yeah.
They've basically questified the existing endgame to make it seem more obvious what you are supposed to be doing, its just that it seems a bit overwhelming all at once.
I'm skipping this filler league coz no swords
but does it djent?
>>566207589that's a grimacehe doesn't like tub man at all
>>566207647these pavement apes are all tradies, too, so the length of time that they have to actually play in these maps instead of one-shotting them in two seconds is...less than two days of playing the league, maybe.
>slow and deliberate combat in a game with netcode and animation synchronization like this
I'm gonna go to Japan instead of playing PoE2.See you, losers.
I'm so confused by this lack of sword shit cause I played at exilecon 1 and the swords and axes and everything were in the game even then. They've had them the whole time, idk why they never chose to work on them.
>>566207742Now we just need map markers and trails and it'd be kino.
Why the fuck people still asking for a crafting bench, when the current socketable system is already more flexible? Did they never touch poo1 and think it's some sort of bench where you craft an item end to end?
when they said endgame overhaul they meant things such as different expedition remnants

there's too much content
This sword shit is just distracting people from more pressing issues that the game has desu.
>>566207908have you never played poe1?
>>566207568>here's your 5 way
>>566207864retard
why are poe2 fags like this?
>>566207881To be fair, PoE2 is not an ARPG.>>566208012You're right. Where are the axes?
>>566207348look at the monsters, the monsters already have the skills that the players will get with swords an d macesthe little channel and then swirl left swirl right in half circles for sword dancing, the large swipes, overhead swing, it will be like playing guitar hero for combos... swords will be Swirly S shape movesdaggers will be straight line stabbystabb aqnd cling to enemies to do acrobatics jumping above and behind like the amazon retreat move but in the other directionand maces will be channeling, swing around then smash, or swing the mace club and squirt fire just like the monsters who already use those weapons probably with all that crafting you will get to put stuff on the weapons that makes them do more dmg from one type like poison daggers and so on

>>566208059
Genuinely what the fuck are they doing at GGG. This game has no fucking direction, no project management, completely blind to how much time investment needs to be put in to even try things out in this game. The game feels turgid to play and they refuse to add the bare minimum of things that would be expected (multiple melee weapons, all classes, acts) instead they don't even rework the end game systems at all they just add layers and layers of bullshit onto it and say "look we did a massive rework!"8 years in development for this btw, they still claim it's EA but then update it slowly like it's a fully released product because it is as the only way people have access to it is through spending at least $30 IIRC. They've just added challenges to the league because they know their playerbase won't be able to resist and will grind this shitty game to get their 36/40 no matter how many miles of shit they have to crawl through. This will help boost the player numbers so it looks better and they can appease investors.Any other dev would get crucified for this but this is just allowed to slide because niGGGers made it.
>>566208019The game where you kill mobs so more bosses spawn from Destructive Play? The one where that actually makes sense and progresses you towards a boss fight? Stop being a defensive retard backing yourself into indefensible corners.
>>566207881>The Incredibles Adventures of Van HelsingShould I play this?
>>566207838My massive cope is that Melee is secretly being worked on as a massive overhaul in the background with whole new combat and hitbox system and the warrior was just thrown in as a stopgap and all that will be replaced.GGG are working with Tencent and some chinese studio to make a whole massive melee combat revival and they're saving this for 1.0 where they drop all the remainder characters at once and PoE2 truly acheives its true vision and it all suddenly makes sense. They gave us the dex and int characters first to get them over with and make poetards happy while they rugpull them at 1.0 and suddenly bows are shit.
Predictions for peak CCU and how sharp the drop off will be?
>>566207881TRVTHNVKENot a real ARPG without swords
>>566208059>Why is an ARPG like an ARPG?I swear people are getting dumber by the minute.
>>566208019>uhm, sweetie, haven't you played [game with fucking horrible gameplay]?poe1 trannies are so exhausting
>>566208165NTA but apparently it's decent.
>>566207568This actually seems rad, I'm looking forward to ritual chaining.>Chance to make ritual spawn on summoning stonesAaaaand ruined. Way to go Jonathan, if you pick that it's illegal to just click rituals when you see them because you need to go check each ritual in the map for summoning stones before starting any. go backtrack maps even more. I'm just not taking that passive even though it sounds objectively cracked, what are these fucking retards doing? let me guess, I'm supposed to click on my waypoints?
>>566207864>OH BOY I JUST GOT A GREAT ITEM>BUT IT LACKS A RESISTANCE THAT MY CURRENT ITEM HAVE>OH, LET ME EXALT IT>>>Player Regenerate 1.5 life per secondYeah, I wonder why, socketing 12% fire res into a boots should be enough.
>>566208059He's not entirely wrong. Poe1 feels a lot like LE nowadays: floaty combat, no stakes no substance
been gone for a while. where are the patch notes?
>>566208019why would I play that clunky ugly outdated boomer game?
>5x strongbox encounter to pop out a chaos orbhere's your fucking league mechanic lmao, is this real?
>>566208178extremely low peak will result in relatively little drop-off (because only mazies will play this garbage)
>>566208282In 3 weeks. Please enjoy.
>>566208059Why do these niggas even play isometric ARPG's. You cannot do this when you have items/passives in the game that allow you to do insane damage numbers. They should just go play Elden Ring instead which actually caters to what they want.
>>566208303>clunkywe're not talking about PoE 2.
Looks like instead of addressing the issues with the game they've just slapped a bunch of gacha-esque crap over the top of the existing stuff. I haven't played D4 but I assume D4 is the same, these retard companies are now in lock-step with each other
>>566207742It will never NOT be overwhelming and trash because this type of questing is the most autistic shit ever devisedThis is fucking VN style of questing, it's a giant map and you have TALK TO MARINA on the school icon, and TALK TO FUKUNI on the house icon, and TALK TO AGARIN on the shop icon.This shit is un-rpgistic, it will always look and feel like trash They are trying to make it feel better but the system itself is devoid of life and immersion
>>566208154Nick Shirley needs to be sent to GGG to investigate the clear waste and fraud going on. I bet he breaks in and opens the door to GGG (after he gets passed the 3 indian security guards by offering them a distraction loli) and finds that Jonathan is an AI screen and it's literally like the Wizard of Oz where he doesn't exist and all the developers died during covid, NZ government covered it up.
>>566206952Impregnated

>>566208369They get extremely quiet when you tell them Nioh and No Rest already exist.>>566208390D4 is actually in a pretty good state and needs more content if anything. They introduced what is basically old Harvest crafting with the Horadric Cube this league and it's kino.
What's the absolute easiest build I can play from zero to hero in 0.4 if I want to test this piece of shit game?
>azhemri is still shit and just fishing for the 30000 divine charm>rogue exile is still shit and just fishing for the abyss jewel that can be worth 30000 divine>strongboxes is still shit and just for SSF chads for easy access to exaltedGreat endgame "rework".
Reminder that Mark said balance changes aren't coming in 0.5.You vill play CoC Comet with +Levels. Und nothing else.
>>566208178I was hardskipping it because of no new class until I saw they're doing challenge FOMO cosmetics. I'll do a quick playthrough and pay some chink to do all my ascendancy humiliation rituals just to get the cosmetics then dip.
>>566208178No swords so we won't break 20k
>>566208369I don't really know where you'll find a game where you spend minutes on end fawning over each drop that you find instead of tossing them in a box and checking later. MMOs? That's the only one that I can think of coming close.

>>566208168that sounds like turbocope
>>566208160destructive play, is that the maven witness thing where you need to run a bunch of different maps? oh nevermind, you mean running through a map like silo to kill the add bosses and leaving before the map is completed.

>>566208636Leech is getting a slap on the wrist, casters will never get nerfed in POE2
>>566208369You realize the entire campaign plays like that, right?
>>566208547Galvanic Shards, its so OP that you can play with any ascendancy, its pretty retarded proof, you will only need a real single target skill when you reach red maps.
Did D4 win?
>>566208529no rest is fucking garbage worst game i've played in the past few years
>>566208672You're defending this gameplay in PoE 2 for what reason? Explain yourself, tribalistic retard.
>>566208749bigly
>>566208643>no one gives a fuck about le meaningful combat and exploration we just want to play satisfying builds, blast maps, get currency, repeatWhat's stopping you right now?
>>566208735>Spending 15-20 minutes per areaI mean guess PoE2 is like that (it's all sprinting)
>>566208643>no one gives a fuck about le meaningful combat and exploration we just want to play satisfying builds, blast maps, get currency, repeatno, you don't. you'd be doing it now if that's all you wanted.
>>566208740>>566208693Thank you. I'll give it the ol' college try with Galvanic Shards Mercenary. Apparently that is retard proof, but I'm not ordinary retard, so we'll find out.
>>566208749Yeah, D4 is victorious.
>>566208712cute, thanks anon.
>>566208491did you? You just got loaded up with a ton of currency garbage that every class will need now - 500 different oddly shards of trash for the trade store so you can make your gayass zesty nigga build
>>566208178It wont even break 10k players, PoE 2 cooked as the zoomers say.
>>566209016on god?
>>566208735You're the guy that Mark talked about taking 2 minutes to kill the Sun Temple Campaign boss.>>566208369You could kill a boss in five seconds with some of the spells in Elden Ring. Shitters just have a romanticized version of these games for some reason.
>>566208820>>566208910why would i do that now? im not obsessed with this game that i need to play it 24/7....i've been blasting a lot for like 14 years now now(im a path of exile veteran)
>>566208154Yeah it seems like they keep attempting very high complexity low payoff systems instead of scoping their time and adding stuff people actually want (like swords).>Here's your 50 new uniques every league, 5 of which are useable>Here's your Specter summoning. We made every enemy and now boss in the game summonable, so you can find whichever does the most DPS and get 10 of them.>Here's your 300 new Kalgaraan skills that add freeze buildup to the ignite builds that dont exist>Here's 80 different new crafting trees each in their own NPC hubs (no crafting bench tho)I don't want to say more content is bad, but in early access maybe they should focus on getting the real content out the door instead of bloatmaxxxing every little thing.
>>566208749I unironically just bought D4
>no swords waaaaaahhhh even though GGG """"teased""""" itall of you niggers rn
>>566208693>>566208740>>566208914both of these are trash. Infernalist plants into coc spark is literally the only serviceable build in the game
I just purchased Diablo IV
>>566209082>Here's your 50 new uniques every league, 5 of which are useableAnd in case of Last Lament, if its good, they will nerf to the ground next patch.
>>566209049He also said that's what they balance for, that means I'm playing the game correctly instead of bug abusing with the current streamer FOTM build.
>>566209119Congrats bro. Enjoy a real ARPG. I'm playing dread claws 'lock
>>566209124the frogs are turning gay tho
>>566208749Yeah we're all switching
>>566209124I've been waiting for them since early access launched
>>566208805i started playing poe1 before there was an atlas, they added the atlas and it was cool as fuck, over the years it became irrelevant. i find the poe2 atlas more fun than what poe1 turned into. you don't like it, that's fine, but you not liking it doesn't make it bad.
>>566208735>You realize the entire campaign plays like that, right?If you mean poop2 then people complain ad naseum about it being a fucking slog, as soon as anyone manages to get a build online the game falls over in front of them. These games aren't built for meaninful combat, why is there a dodge roll in the game when your character has evade and dodge(?) stats. Same question why was there active block when your character has block stats. These games are RPG's first and made for people who can appreciate that the character is doing the actions to avoid these mechanics because he was built so. Whilst you have these stats in the game and you have so many uniques/passives/support gems/mods on items the game becomes impossible to balance and people like Jung will find out how to screen clear and everyone will copy him. There is no room for meaningful combat when 50 mobs juiced to the gills run at you with no room to react, and that's fine because it wouldn't be fun if you were expected to. These people want a game that does not exist and cannot exist with this depth of a modifier pool.https://www.twitch.tv/lianj/clip/BeautifulFancyWoodcockTooSpicy

Guys... I think Morrowind won (again)
I haven't played since 0.2. I'm seeing a lot of outrage over swords not being added. Does this mean axes were already put in?
D4, Diablo 4
What do I think of the announcement?
It's called PoE2 because there are two tubs worth of content per league mechanic
fh6 won
>>566209330>the co-founder of the company, the guy who wrote the engine and designed some of the best systems in poe 1 doesn't know what he is doing

>>566209556You're very excited. Endgame got massively improved
>>566209556POE2 = BAD
>>566209556Buy Diablo 4
>>566209575do nips even buy porsches?
i find it funny how me (a big poe2 disliker) is getting attacked now by the poe2 secondaries because i said that the patch looks okayish, they are really mad because no swordsa few months ago when i said poe2 bad they would crucify me and try to dox but now that im calling the patch okayish they harass the fuck out of me, pretty funny you can literally tell that they are secondaries cause they obsess over new weapons so much
Soooo I guess I just have to go on waiting another 30 years for an actual Diablo 1 sequel huh.Diablo 2 is not my Diablo 2 and all it's bastard children should've been aborted and slopped into a bucket in a boomers cup in some casino where they belong.I just want to slowly isometricly step through the darkness and open a door to horrors I can't comprehend that cause me to physically run back up the stairs and out. I don't wanna farm the orbs for the mechanic for the mechanic on the mechanic that makes my screen explode green instead of blue anymore.

>>566209556You are thinking that you will play D4 instead
>>566209082Swords add nothing to the game. Only retards care about what kind of stick they're holding when using the same skills.

>>566209820you're right, the game is bald. the answer is obvious
>>566209808>no swordsDoomers won bigly
>>566209808Both sides switched to the opposite. We have a massive pile of content that meaningfully increases build and gameplay diversity and the shitters hate it because no swords
I'm not that into poe2 so i'm indifferent to the whole thing but i don't know why people are dooming. It looks like a pretty good patch, people wanted more endgame stuff and they added a bunch of pinnacle stuff to farm. The only problem is, i couldn't see any new skills, so you're stuck playing whatever you played last time and poe2 already had weak build diversity. Yeah there's some kalgurann stuff and innate skills but i'm not counting those. Anyway i haven't watched the twitch thing so maybe i'm missing out on stuff
>>566209808d4jeets lostPOO1 troonies *ACK*'d poe2GODS are back
>>566209956why are doomers so obsessed with swords? does this mean that doomers are secondaries?(pls dont confuse me with a poe2 fag i dislike that game)
i cant read the threads fast enough. please stop posting.
Umm, actually, releasing a half baked game is good when GGG does it, chud.
I hope he will be strong boss and they will explain why does he have so many hands
>>566209808If you were hoping for PoE2 to be a finished game that was a more satisfying play experience and looking forward to a future of comfy content, you get nothing.If you were a 42 year old loser who absolutely requires to farm the new thumbnails with the new blue screen of death flashing 'build' you're happy as a clam right now.GGG won't exist as a company past the year 2035 because their playerbase they have tripled down on all will die from health related issues stemming from sedentary lifestyle over the next 10 years.
>>566209808>no new classes>no new weapons>no new acts
>>566209603>designed the systemshe coded them, he didnt come up with how they would work retard
>>566209997>It looks like a pretty good patch, people wanted more endgame stuff and they added a bunch of pinnacle stuff to farm.This isn't what people wanted for endgame
>>566209808No swords, doomsisters rejoicing. What's funny is that GGG themselves were baiting swords and hyped up everyone. It's a self-inflicted wound.
poop2? Dogshit
>>566209997Build diversity and variety comes from new skills, which in this game are linked to specific weapons. There are no new weapons therefore no new skills to try out.
>no new classes>no new weapons>no new spells/skillsBoring contentslop league. What's the point in playing when you're just gonna spam Lightning Arrow on Deadeye the entire league again?
>>566210097>Redditspacinggo back tranny
>>566209980>We have a massive pile of contentBrother 90% of the content reveal is endgame tweaks and streamlines and quality of life, ONE of the endgame contents have a new boss
>>566210075so I have to wait like 2 more years for swords and duelist? grim
>>566209808Doomers have never won so big
>>566209270This is what people don't understand. The only way to make combat "meaningful" is to make character builds either a) meaningless or b) a puzzle with a very limited number of true answers. The whole appeal of poe is how open ended everything is, how crazy you can scale your character etc.
>>566210052Swords in this instance stands for swords: literal, new acts, new classes, new skills. We are getting none of them and instead getting a 'rework' of the endgame which hasn't reworked anything people didn't like.
>>566210075>Release more shit afterthought story and more temporary mechanics is more ideal to focus on than core systemic foundational content like character classes in a game where the very notion and existence of it's passive tree demands these characters exist so that the items can exist.
The soulslike aura of this game.
Axes status?
>>566209997>Why are people doomingPOE1troons are dooming because the devs didn't immediately capitulate to their every demand and turn the game into, literally, a reskin/reshade mod for POE1POE2bros are dooming because the devs are clearly capitulating to the POE1troons by adding faster, more powerful gearing and juicing strats which continues the trend of 2's gameplay getting worse patch-on-patch since 0.3.D4dads are dooming because GGG didn't add whatever autistic shit they're pretending matters, like swords
WHERE IS XOPH?
>game is drowning in league mechanics and crafting items and its not even 1.0bleak stuff
>>566210115the skill tree and the skill/supports were the tub mans doing.
>>566210075>>566210258literally no one other than secondaries gives a fuck about new weapons, acts or classesendgame is the only thing that matters and its where their focus should be, maybe even removing the actsyou secondaries should just stay in your elden rings and skyrims
>>566210215>>566210216I saw some new skills, ones that need no specific weapon, from the rune thingie or something
>>566210303maybe in 2030
>>566210421yeah and look at poo2s version of both of those. Absolute trash tier
>>566210234We have a new boss each for ritual, expedition, and delirium as well as a new arbiter
>>566209808>no new class>no new weapon>no new act>no tota
>>566210249You can make combat flashy and fast and spammy but fun.The problem is GGG's melee combat is atrocious and doens't make sense in their own game. They have the warrior take 12 years to do a piddly little wack yet the ranger can turbospeed shoot 40 lighting arrows a second that chain explosions everywhere.All they have to do is make melee anime as fuck and it would be both beneficial to the game and fun for melee enjoyers, but we all know 1.0 rolls around the only way to actually have tangible fun in the videogame will be to LA Deadeye once again.
PoE 2 has too much content, the should just cut swords and call it a day.Do we really need MORE bloat?
>we're not getting templar until 2028
>>566210429You just keep saying the same thing over and over again. You are an autistic retarded faggot
No way troonathan is going to release 1.0 at the same time as GTA6. It's a fucking kek
>>566210429I'll just continue making more builds in poo1 instead, something you can't do it poo2.
back to warframe then
Endgame troons made them waste 6 months on stuff no one cares about instead of the things real players want like more campaign, classes and weapons
>>566210216>no new skillsUhhh bro? After hitting level 80 and acquiring the kalguuran gem of kino game design, every 8 seconds you can sacrifice 30 ward to channel for 1 second to stand up and yell "KINO", which makes your next lightning arrow that hits an immobilized enemy deal its shock buildup as ignite buildup instead. What do you mean no new skills???
>>566210357I'm glad I'm getting the sequel I was promised 1740 supporter packs ago, but this patch looks very underwhelming. Six months for some runes and some bloated league mechanics. An atlas passive tree where you don't even have to make any tough decisions and can get every point is quite a choice, too. The juice is going to be insane at the top end which means we'll get another kino league of 2dads crying about Fubgun raping them.
>>566210523I genuinely think when swords are put in the game they will be seen as pointless 'sharp maces' that play no different yet dilute the drop pool.They'll probably just cancel axes honestly.
>>566210476>pooooo pooo poo poooo based
>>5662105242030*
Ok, im going to bed now.And when i wake up i still gonna be ASSBLASTED MAD THAT BREACH 2.0 WITH GENESIS TREE MADE IT IN
>>566210562>GTA6I bet they didn't even think or consider this at all.I look forward to the post Exilecon video update in December that says aaaactually were delaying to March and this will give us more time to rework Breach for the 5th time (they will make sure to include the 4th Breach rework in 1.0)
>an autistic adult man has decided to avatarfag as an anime girl and spam the words "secondary" and "I dont play the game"terrible use of free will. You really fit right in on vg.
>delirium monsters still don't work with hoiwell fuck you too
we want new endgame mechanics its the only thing that matters in this game, why are secondaries so mad? because they're not getting their new epic swords and now they can't "immerse" themselves and "explore" the map for 30 minutes while "roleplaying" as some epic anime protagonist? >>566210552>You just keep saying the same thing over and over againas do dozens of others today>>566210567i mean you're right, poe2 is a bad game( i very much dislike it) but i despise its fanbase
I just started playing poe/arpgs this past year but what the fuck man? Does anyone actually like clicking 30 different currency fragments? Why can't enemies just drop (useful item) or nothing? Do people really think its not a problem that you literally cannot see the ground without an item filter? I just want to fight monsters not remember a gorillion different crafting currencies. Should I just start playing grim dawn?
>>566210524They've already silently cancelled Templar, he was a red head after all. He's going to be replaced by a black woman who uses Quarterstaves too and flails are also cancelled.
>>566210429Ending has never mattered for anyone pal, this has game loses 90% of the playerbase in a couple monthsThis is not because the playerbase completes the whole endgame in two months and dipsIt took me two/three weeks to complete the campaing because I only play some hours per week
>>566210215The weapon specific thing really limits how fast they can expand, but i guess they wanted to give everything specific animations. They could've added new skills for existing weapons i suppose but they didn't do that either
>>566210593I wonder how big part of the playerbase (including all the casuals that are interested) even play the endgame at all
>>566210893Play D4
holy shit
GGG wants the hardcore gamer crowd. You guys are hardcore gamers, right?
The fact that there's people that care more about swords than an extremely needed endgame rework tells you a lot about how many casual 10 hour per league players GGG has pulled in for PoE2. It's actually insane to me that people are disappointed with what was revealed.
>>566210865>we want new endgame mechanicsYou said you played poe2 for 5 hours, you've never played the poe2 endgame. Secondary.And sure, people wanted something different for endgame, but an even bigger pile of shit is maybe not what they intended.
>>566210893Grim Dawn is kino, but you'll have to learn about monster infrequent rares and that might you scare you off.
So did they add the new Ascendancy Trial in Act 4 or not?
>>566211000>peopledoomers aren't people
>>566210724>GGG in one fell swoop ensures SSF can never be fun by introducing the unbelievably broken-for-gearing breach tree so we'll have to farm it endlessly every leaguet-thanks
>>566210987I like playing more than one game
>>566210893>Play grim dawn>Get a green item with a star next to it>It's good and you put it onYes, you should. it's not a live service forevergame, but that's a good thing.
Axes?
>>566211000No one cares about endgame slop other than terminally online 20 hour per day streamer fags. Real players want content instead of autistic grindslop.
>titan quest 2 adds 3 new classes>d4 adds 2 new classes>poe2 cant even add 1Can anyone explain why that is?
PoE 2 needs more farm consumablesI specifically mean things that you consume to farm, like tablets.My argument is that these tend to be the things that people doing alch & go or that are late to the party in a league tend to sell to juicers to get their legs, however, as the game stands right now, since most of the valuable loot is used for crafting gear (or tablets, but I'll get to those) the result is that the economy mostly flows in one direction.Regarding tablets, those aren't like scarabs in that they are rolled and have a rarity, leading into a situation where the better a tablet is, the more expensive it is, which wouldn't be a big deal if they weren't the only (or almost the only?) consumable for farming, which means that after a certain point only people that can get the more powerful tablets can sell them, thus we go back to the problem of the economy being dead to players behind the pack.This compounds with how gear dependant character power is in poe 2, but that's a separate issue that would be better discussed after we get a passive skill tree overhaul.
>>566203297no rarity changes, no nerfs. Too much "we know this sucks but we didnt have time and saving it for 1.0"Yeah i feel like i should wait for 1.0. Or 1.1 since 1.0 will be broken in 25 ways.
>>566210893get a better filter and don't pick up useless shit. its really easy, unless you play ssf and are forced to pick everything but that's a restriction you forced upon yourself >>566210910bingo! great post, really summarizes the essence of the average poe2 secondary >>566211002i've seen lots of new endgame stuff being presented today so that's decent, the secondaries are mad cuz no swords. cant cosplay as guts and no new acts(funniest thing they're mad over) no one gives a fuck about acts other than the biggest of secondaries
>>566211071imo monster infrequents are a huge pro for grim dawn as a relatively casual game and really don't even need explaining. They're simple and easily farmable build enablers that you'll see a gajillion of in one area and quickly realize "Oh, this area drops really good piercing daggers".
>>566211000Content that exists only at the end and is just a minutia of soup of 12 nested systems that all just boil down to screen explode green instead of blue means nothing to normal gamers.The core characters and weapon types are foundational content that the game absolutely requires. The passive tree exists in this game literally for that reason. None of us have played Path of Exile 2 yet, we've played Path of Ranger. They are the main character and everyone else is an afterthought.
>>566211167GGG listen to their retarded streamers like Ben who want a shitty forevergame while other games are designed to be played by humans which is why they add classes and new acts.
>>566211167my guess is their entire animation and design team is busy copypasting poe1 assets and then celebrating christmas with their families for 4-5 months
Legitimately not trying to defend PoE 2 here but reading comments made by poe players just makes me go insane. I saw people go "but I thought they got rid of towers???" when Jonathan brought up the Fortress endgame quest thing and it's just... how can you even formulate a thought that retarded? There is an equivalent comment just flowing from poe player's mouths for every single mechanic.
You can literally copy paste reddit blog posts and get free (You)s
POE2... easy on the ziggurats...
>>566211167titan quest 2 floppedt. bought it
The updates are nice... HoweverWhile i appreciate them putting so much effort into end game i would like to see more of a shift toward getting the base sorted first then focus on fixing endgame. Such as working on releasing all the classes finishing the acts rather than so much focus of things that can be adjusted in future leagues once the base is complete.
>>566211072Of course not.
>>566211501It's already a better game than poe2
WHY THE FUCK CANT THESE RETARDED NIGGGERS ADD SWORDS ITS BEEN 6 FUCKING YEARS OF DEVELOPMENT AND ALMOST 2 YEARS OF EARLY ACCESS AND STILL NO FUCKING SWORDS I DONT WANT TO SMASH WITH MACES LIKE A FUCKING RETARD I DONT WANT TO TWIDDLE AROUND WITH QUARTERSTAVES LIKE A FUCKING FAGGOT I DONT WANT TO CHUCK SPEARS LIKE A FUCKING NIGGER I WANT TO FUCKING SLASH WITH A SWORD ITS THE MOST UNIVERSAL STANDARD WEAPON OF ALL TIME AND THESE NEW ZEALAND CHUCKLEFUCKS CANT DO ANYTHING RIGHT ITS IN THE FUCKING GAME LET ME SLASH WITH IT I DONT NEED DUELIST OR ANY GAY CHARGE SKILLS JUST LET IT DROP!!!
Overfal its just a way better endgame experience, with a significant number of fun objectives to complete.
>>566209284>>566208059Stranger of Paradise already perfected the "Diablo clone with actual gameplay" subgenre. Just play that instead of expecting Cookie Clicker 2 to somehow develop real gameplay (it won't happen).
>>566211398I saw a guy on stream going "that's it? just a couple of side quests? what do you do when you finish them"
>>566210498this, hopesissies cannot refute this and doomGODS win by default as resultsad
People bitching about no duelist or swords but the bigger issue is no TOTA.
>>566211486this looks fucking AWFUL.
>>566211336if your experience with poe2 was just doing what your streamer was doing then character or weapons don't matter.
>>566211398poe2 players were always retarded but this update they exposed themselves >>566211617im not looking for a diablo clone, i never was. i never played diablo games, im basically what you would call arpg secondary
>>566211274>bingo! great post, really summarizes the essence of the average poe2 secondarySo I guess you think I'm a "secondary" because I don't play endgame a lot, my point is that YOU are "secondary" because people that stays to play endgame are the small minority
i play SSF so it's fun looking at the new features during a reveal and trying to guess how much of it will be complete and total unobtainium I will never have the chance to uselike when they brought up that cool memory strand crafting in Secrets of the Atlas and I got exactly 1 orb of any of the 3 types during that league
>>566211523This. It feels like I'm taking crazy pills. Why the fuck are they working on endgame shit instead of finishing the fucking game.PoE2 is one of the most mismanaged games I've ever seen.
>>566211336>None of us have played Path of Exile 2 yet, we've played Path of Ranger.jesus christ you are pathetic
Twenty-two (22) more days until the league launches with no new class, no new weapon, no TOTA, no campaign acts.
>>566211758>i never played diablo gameswhy would you even play poe then?
it all makes sense when you realize all the problems of poe2 is Johnathan doing the exact opposite of poe1. the biggest example is the infinite atlas compared to the poe1 maps and charms instead of flasks. also no masteries and life on the passive tree in 2.
I have not played Ranger in POE2 and I will never play Ranger in POE2 because Ranger is the class for fubtrannies that hate gameplay.
>>566211000the end game content they added doesn't belong in an arpg. Fucking questlines? Get the fuck out of here. atlas completion into bossing is so much better than this. Fucking 500 different new currencies? This is trash
>>566211837>Why the fuck are they working on endgame shit instead of finishing the fucking game? Blame streamtroons
>we're backBro the game is dead.
>>566211375lol, Ben had absolutely nothing to do with the shit they just put out, this is massive cope. Guaranteed he will shit on this trash
>>566211817I've learned 10 years ago to completely skip the "look at this cool new unique" sections of the reveal.It's shit that I will never ever see, i was hyped for them when I was a teen retard, going "woo look at that item is so powerful and great!!" and then I would play and never ever in my life see that item.
>>566211837this is a very good pointmaybe the small dedicated endgame playerbase keeps buying microtransactions?
>>566211939it insane how your post is pretty much everything what >>566211398 described. like talking to absolute gorilla monkey IQ level retards.
>>566212049drip feeding casual content isn't going to do anything other than dilute the 1.0 hype.
>>566211837Because after like 0.1 or whatever it was everyone said there wasn't enough endgame and that gave them some kind of mental trauma
>>566211486I aesthetically hate this endgame atlas. It looks like a PS2 port of a CIV game. It's atrocious looking. I vastly preferred the paper map scroll sprawl we had. This just looks like shit.Imo, they need to scrap the atlas with an actual endgame, open world infinitely repeating minecraft like zone instead if they're doing this. Something you can physically travese and just endlessly play and get lost in.
>>566211781yep, i think you're a secondary. you probably care about "immersion" and "meaningful combat", a real poe fan doesn't care about those, we just want endgame mechanics and to blast maps. the game shouldn't be catered to you(and it isn't thankfully) sorry if i sound mean >>566211939so i started playing poe in open beta, i was on skype with a bunch of guys from /v/ and one guy was showing us the huge skill tree so i ended up downloading it cuz free game
I bought poe2 and I've been trolled. Have fun with your game.
>>566212296It's too late, this is the system they're sticking with forever
>>566211920
Reminder 1.0 was supposed to release last year LOL
LOOK INSIDE MY ASSHOLE LOLOLOLOL
>>566212384sure it was.
>>566212393Why does he have so many hands?After playing Keepers I really want to know who is he. I mean people said that's Chayula, but who is Chayula, a god?
>>566211375>other games are designed to be played by humansis that why blizzard keep releasing full-price games with 5-6 hours of content?
>>566212317>a real poe fan doesn't care about thoseYou are not even a true gamer if you dont care about that, you are just a zombie. ggg caters to you because youre loud and annoying and spend your manchild bucks on the game.
>>566211837The sore point is that all this content they add for endgame/leagues etc has to be gone back over later once they add new characters. It's highly inefficient working like this as they have to retrace their steps. Which they literally have just done, they've spent all this work on redoing something they already paused development of the main game the first time to make.Absolutely ridiculous. Just add the fucking characters into the game what is the damn holdup. Warrior has the most barebones basic simplistic combat out there in an arpg for melee. This isn't some grandiose complex shit. Put the fucking guy who swings the daggers and the swords into the game and build them up over time. Remove the tier gating on skills and have them available from the start of the game without level requirements and only stat requirements and let us have fun. Add more skills for the new chars as you go.
>>566212513PoE 2 endgame is 6 hours of contentYou're just forced to do 12 hours of campaign every league
>>566212393oh nonon onono HAHAHAHA
So... is Martial Artist or Spirit Walker going to enable some new builds or....
>>566212384Reminder: 7 Acts and swords were supposed to release in 2020GGG make shit up and tell us lies for things they have yet to even do, the promise what doesn't exist.
>>566212481>Why does he have so many hands?Designed by Horikoshi>Who is ChayulaYeah he's a god dude, god of dreams or something. People said he's high tier now because GGG changed the lore or something
>>566212565why would they have to go over endgame content because they added a new character model?
>>566212481hes the god of chaos damage from the alternative breach dimension
>>566212317I think YOU're a secondary. You probably care about "blast maps" and "endgame mechanics", a real poe fan doesn't care about those, we just want meaninful combat and cool NPCs. The game shouldn't be catered to you(and it isn't, we only had 1 (one) endgame tweak league out of 4 releases, and with this done the next release won't be also endgame content, thankfully) sorry if i sound mean
>>566207647>>566207805>no you should like maze maps because>JUST BECAUSE OK
>>566211920Tota?
>>566212547>>566212783the essence of poe is literally blast mobs and get more loot like its father diablo(not a diablo gamer myself but im pretty sure its literally the same like that game)you can call me a zombie or whatever you like but if you're looking to "immerse" yourself or "roleplay" or whatever the fuck, you're playing the wrong game and are a definition of a secondary
>>566210893Loot should only drop at the end of a league mechanic or at the end of a map. This would be far more satisfying and easier to manage but people won't go for it because people accept any turd ggg shits out.
>>566212685LOL
>>566212724Because the entire game balance will get shifted and broken anyway everytime they introduce new weapon types nodes and all the rest, are you retarded? Not to mention all the content only drops items for the current characters, Duelist will be added to a game where every single bit of content drops bows and maces and quarterstaves.They will have to go back over to Breach and add breach swords and shields, expedition swords, ritual armours etc etcThey're making a pizza where they're actively cooking it in the oven while still making the dough and just slopping flour all over the kitchen having to keep cleaning up and cutting off the burnt bits and slappign fresh dough back on to patch it up. It's the most retarded game development I've witnessed since something like duke nukem forever.
All this new stuff seems cool but I still don't have a build I want to play. Even less so for builds that just work out of the gate and don't require pinnacle boss uniques.
I just took a fat dump
BOOOOOOOO FUCK YOU BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>566213012if you aren't trolling you might unironically be mentally retarded.
>>566213146>special pleadings for skill design nowlmao
>>566212876You can keep deluding yourself like that, you probably are a tranny or tranny lover, I can see.But you can't disprove reality, that out of 4 releasees, this is the only one that has endgame "focus" (And 1.0 will be mostly immersion and acts and story, probably with no new endgame)Doesn't that tells you something "secondary" anon?Probably not
>>566213012>They will have to go back over to Breach and add breach swords and shields, expedition swords, ritual armours etc etcSounds fun and interesting, like they're building out the playground so that each new class will provide a deeper experience once released rather than only having a shallow demo of a game but with all the classes that can't meaningfully be distinguished between each other.
>>566213196he's completely right chudbeit
>>566213196If you think them adding in a new character won't cause them to have to go over ultimatum, ritual, abyss, breach, delirium, expedition and the ascendancy trials etc etc again you're the one who's mentally retarded. GGG are going to be stuck chasing their tails adding new content ontop of redoing the content they did.
>adding endgame shit is considered streamtroon shit here nowi didnt know that this place is so casual why are there so many secondaries who just want to immerse themselves in the campaign and spend 45 minutes exploring the zones while cosplaying as guts with their ultra huge greatswords? how did they even end up here? >>566213286endgame = only thing that matters in poeif you don't care about endgame you're a secondary playing a wrong game
>>566213392Hime should have sex with me
>>566213359That's not what will happen. They will simply just launch the new character and in the process of going over the old content for them just end up changing their minds for the nth time and we're back to square one.Look forward to NuNuDelirium at Exilecon.
why is this thread particularly insincere and retarded today
>>566213392Cocky motherfucker.
>>566213359The characters already can't be distinguished from each other. They play the same. If your character isn't shitting out lightning or frost all over the screen regardless who it is, you may as well not be playing the game.
Do we know if they've updated defenses at all? I'm tempted to play phys damage Huntress but I'm not dealing with how bad Evasion is again
are there any good spear skills? i want to try out pure evasion sorc ward with spear this league,
>>566213364>>566213373they've already added new classes, ascendancies and weapon types...
I don't have a real reason I wanted to play Shadow or Templar in PoE 2, the Ascendancies are in general generic enough, but I am still bummed they didn't make it.
>>566213392Better endgame was wanted yesAdding a bunch of shit on top of the shit doesn't necessarily mean it will be betterSYBAU you don't even play it anyway
>>566213676i only watched a bit of the stream but mark mentioned buffing all defenses
>>566213392>endgame = only thing that matters in poe>Out of 5 releases we'll do 1(one) endgame "focused" release>So those other 4 releases huh uuh don't matter huh huhh uuuh
spirit walker or martial artist?
>>566213685twister is still good, especially on witch hunter with its 100 billion passives u can use one for setting up and the other for releasing
>>566213524No they won't, these league mechanics have never been reworked before since implemented. Adding new classes is irrelevant to the function of these mechanics anyway, no idea why you fail to understand that.
>>566213780new endgame shit is always good, and you got extremely hostile when i said that the essence of poe is blasting maps and getting loot. makes me think you're a secondary>>566213825i wouldnt know about other releases i havent played them except day one(nor i plan on playing this release)
>>566213196He's right though?
>>566213146For what purpose
>>566213929If the new shit is shit, then its more shit. More shit is not better than less shit. Ideally they would make something that isn't shit
>>566213392Streamtroons have been killing the game from minute one thoughbeit
>>566213929>i wouldnt know about other releases i havent played them except day one(nor i plan on playing this release)>won't be playing the ONE (1) release that's about endgameJesus christ you sure fucking baited me, "secondary" troll lolAlright, alrightYou got me lol
>>566214026It doesn't really look shit, looks like classic perennially popular ARPG gameplay. What are you expecting, some kid of martial weapon sim like Half Sword?
>>566213972didn't they already add new classes and weapons to the game? i guess they figured out a work around. another masterstroke from based jonathan.
>>566214026>I don't like this turd on a plate>well how about 5 turds on the same plate? More is better right, its new shit you've never seen before
was expecting the endgame rework to be lesser tedious things to do instead of whatever the fuck kind of mess is this thing is
>>566214227>figured out a work arounYeah it's called spending 5 times the time you'd normally need lmao
>>566214213It does look liek shit. They've just added checklist format to the shit that was already there, so now you get a questlog of all the shit you have to eat and you can feel a sense of achievement as you complete guzzling down all the shit on the list
>>566214026so that means that poe 2 = big shit >>566214167i don't know what streamtroons opinions are or what they want. if i'd have to guess you don't like the "zoomy" modern nature of the game and blame the streamers>>566214171doubt ill play it
>>566214227Huntress and Druid existed since 2022.The game was already built accounting for them. Not the same as suddenly Shadow and traps and daggers appearing in the game and all sorts of new systems and mechanics and changes to the tree and then having to make sure there are sufficient rewards and items in all the content to make them want to play it.This is not the last time you will see GGG redo Expedition, Ritual, Delirium, Breach etc. They will go over them again again.
>Here's another shitty league mechanic we slapped onto the campaign where it doesn't fit aesthetically>It's got this ugly menu that pops up>If you interact with the menu, YOU GET AN ORB OF AUGMENTATIONwoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow *clap clap clap*amazing 10/10 mobile phone gameplay GGG you've done it again!
>>566214413They've clearly added a lot more, and all of it is optional because its a fucking game. You are more than welcome to quit as soon as you complete the campaign and never come back, no one cares.
Every league reveal the doomsissies get louder, so I end up mistaken when I assume they're actually going to quit the game for real this time, but they never do and I look like a fool.So I'll see you all on the beach in 3 weeks.
>>566214589the nearest beach is in act 4 though
>>566214506shadown and tarps existed since 2012WOAH!
dead on arrival
>>566214506Nothing about adding classes requires reworking major endgame mechanics. You are vastly overthinking this
>>566214535melty
>>566213658>instead of ascendancies occupying unique character niches, they are all identity-less palette swaps of the base class except with some bullshit gimmick nodeI get less and less excited about poe2 as time goes on. Muh ranger with 3 rings, muh ranger with accuracy stacking, muh ranger with wisps. It's all fucking ai slopWhy arren't we getting a beastmaster? Or arcane archer? Or better poison shit? Why are the three warrior classes so trash? Why is druid so trash? Fucking zimbabwe minion summoner witch? Who fucking asked for that weird ass shit what the hell is even that?
>>566211486Holy AI slop.
Any rework to +skills being the most important stat in the game? Would love to try out some of the unique legendary gear but I’m not gonna waste my time if everything HAS to be +skill levels with movement speed triple res boots
>>566214675The short beach you wash up on after creating your character
>>566214542Brother you will still be on a infinite generated map doing delirium and breach and ritual and expedition, they just turned them into a questline with more bullshit. Its fundamentally the same thing with more bloat added to each thing. its like saying you want a new car, and they just add a bunch of bodykit and spoilers and crap to your existing car. Its the same endgame at its core.
the d4jeet falseflags+doomposting is getting obnoxiously transparent ngl
They're laughting at you.
>>566214882D4chads don't need to shitpost us. They're already slaughtering us in concurrent players.
can't they make these league mechanic tree turn into scarabs instead? I don't want to touch any of these pinnacle bosses
>>566214994bfr doesn't look like he's laughing
>>566214542>They've clearly added a lot moreA lot more crap>no actual end-game rework>no actual gameplay balancing>more menus>more shitty systems to abuse>no new weapons>no new skills>no new classes>no new acts>no new Ascendancy Trial (promised for 0.4 btw)>more more more types of currencies to collect (and stash tabs to buy)>more minigames that don't tie into the campaign>more shit copy pasted from poe 1>more focus on breach/deli/ritual/expedition (nobody fucking cares about these they don't work just remove them)>Temple is now locked into the game (lol)
>>566212685yeah, enjoy your General's Cry for Monks :)
>>566215095He's laughing.
>>566214718>10 Social Credit has been deposited into your account!
>biggest update ever!!!>look inside>no new classes, weapons or actsWake me up when 0.6 releases
blizzdrone cope thread
>>566214690literally what is the purpose of this? You just do less damage and have to stand still and die to channel it.
>can't even look him in the eyes as he says thisit's over...
I'm going to the bathroom to post a big endgame update
>4 reheated leagues>no brand new league>one or two new pinnacles>still infinite atlass>no new class>no tota>no act 5
>>566215441funny how jon immediately showed how much more he despises chris than otherwise. we really are hurting without him
I'm going to start a month late like i always do and enjoy the league more than anyone else here.
>>566215570your pasta is wrong, time to gape you
>>566215583with Chris Wilson, we wouldnt have async trade
Will there be any way to giga-juice the groidsmash monkey boss to actually be a viable minion for endgame?
>>566215674ASYNC trade is dogshit and sovlless
So Jonnyboy was really the man behind Path of Exile, huh? Why would Chris expose himself as a mere salesman with his new video, it might be the greatest sabotage
>>566215754If there's some sort of catch it'll be a hidden gay mod
>>566214781+skill level on gear is still mandatory, it’s never going away and 97% of the uniques will never be usable
>>566215754Tamed bosses will do -90% dmg sorry
Have doomers ever been BTFO this badly before?
If they end up dropping a Gladiatior/Swords reveal a few days before leaguestart would that be cringe or based
>>566216197DoomGODs won massively thoughbeit
why is there a fucking forest behind him is he living in the jungles
>>566203906Dead game for retarded trannys

Path of fun 2
>>566215960Just like Todd the God, Chris has always been the frontman. Look at how well he hyped up a diablo2 clone full of 500$ "micro" transactions for years. And the players love him for it.
Diablo 4 Lord of KINO
they didnt rework the endgame adding extra jelly to a pb&j sandwich doesnt make it a new sandwich
>>566203297Adding league mechanics in beta was a huge mistake
Poe2 status?D4 status?
what the fuck are the edicts
The world atlas is staying, if you want the og atlas you're not going to get it. They're like 3 leagues in on adding shit to the world atlas. It's staying
you WILL run sekhma to get your pointsyou WILL run vaal temple layouts back to backyou WILL still get onetapped offscreen + ground degen evaporates your puny wardpooland you will like it
>>566217009Its like an override command if the world gets out of order or something and they come back and kill everyone, it's like the flood from the bible but instead of Noah you've got a guy with hands for wings
Wait so they just copied poo1 stuff and added it in poo2?
We're getting GTA 6 before swords in PoE2 KEKW
Yea I’m thinking I skip this league. Is 1.0 next? I’ll just wait for that.
>>566217234i've never had an issue doing sekhemas even in 0.1 when it was hot shit. Trial of chaos is also dead easy.
>>566217009contingency plans for if the world got too damaged by corruptionfirst edict presumably is "we'll leave some automated defenses/constructs to cleanse it"third edict presumably is "in case we can't do it ourselves we'll make a weapon anyone can use that kills the Beast"
>>566217045They could have just worked the Temple mechanic into the atlas and saved the game, now they have 2 separate mechanics that will forever be dogshit
>>566215967>cycling buffSTOPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPUU
>>566215851You would rather whisper 30 people for a simple trade? Fuck you.
>>566217783what's the second?
>>566217749>Trial of chaos is also dead easy.It's also dead boring, probably the worst gameplay I've seen in any game lately, how have they not reworked it
>>566217926oh no I love Trials. With the right build you just move your character and nothing else. Free mirrors every 10 hours or less. Only faggots dislike it.
how much has the game evolved since 0.1 if at all?like 2 new classes, 2 new acts? some endgame stuff?
I am incredibly distraught at all the casualization they announced. The yellow paint is dixon buttes gay.
Have the new Mageblood stats been revealed?
>>566218076yeah
>>566204045Not enough people are saying this.
alright, whats the verdict? how full is the tub?
I know no one cares about they story but did they really have to go over the story beats of every new questline?
>>566218063the campaign is finished. 1.0 is ready. eat your slop piggy.
>>566218190Nice
>>566218063The pizza base is more cooked now but they had to remove the burnt mushrooms and replace them with fresh ones, also had to rotate the pizza in the oven, cut off the burnt side and slap on fresh wet dough that hasn't risen yet grafted onto that side, but it's now rising in the oven and forming like a large spongey crust they've now decided to stuff with extra cheese and garlic.Later on when the pizza is more cooked they'll scrape off the burnt charcoal from the underside and then recook the whole thing with a single new ingredient added before drowning it all in olive oil as they serve it up
>>566218257>No one cares about the storyI dothis is why I'm annoyed that they told me the whole fucking thing
>>566216973>Poe2 status?getting better but much slower than is reasonable>D4 status?raped, gaped, humiliated, dead, buried
>>566218257Yes GGG love to spoil all their content because they don't have anything substantial to show.Everything they showed in the livestream was indeed it. No need to play now, we've already seen all the bosses and content.
>>566217920Read on jonathan's voice:Your mom spawns in and sucks all the corruption with her mouth, pussy or ass, depending on the corruption's type. Each type of corruption can drop a shard of that type, that your mom can use to empower her cleansing skills. Gather enough shards and she'll be able to transmute those shards in an ingame IU crafting table, to craft the new WombSpawns. WombSpawns are powerfull fetuses that make her sucking levels skyrocket. This one fore example: LittleDud, that has a chance to summon your sister for extra sucking power. I won't spoil the rest! Your mom will be able to equip one wombspawn per womb she has (1), but she can buy more wombtabs from the store.
>>566218469???????
I am incredibly disappointed by this league reveal. Biggest yet? Feels like barely nothing
>>566218516your mom is the second edict, it's datamined from the new alpha test
What did ds_lily think?
>>566218638is dslily a boy yes/no
>>566218823no
>>566204658Didn't they JUST do an endgame overhaul on poe1 and accomplished all the shit we were expecting for poe2?
>>566218843tranny detected
Supporter pack shows knightly armor holding a sword. But these might be the worst two supporter packs launched together I can think of. The hideout isn't really worth it compared to recent ones.
>>566218845>accomplished all the shit we were expecting for poe2?Fucking swords?Templar?Marauder?Duelist?All of the above have been expected for two leagues now
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M0PhEFcIkg4NEW LIGHT PATTERN
>>566218978Retard.
>>566218921Retard
>>566218965Correction. The Pregnancy Map Device is okay, but that is it.
>>566219070he's right though
>>566204528Near the beginning of the interview w ziggyd when mark was talking it almost seemed like mark was calling out jonathan or something the way jonathan looked so sheepish.
>>566219089you didn't dispute the claim
This is definitely the bloat update. We got nothing we wanted and instead 5000000 weird ways of crafting shit that aren't just a simple bench
>>566205079Blame GGG for cultivating such a toxic fanbase over all these years. They made their Golem. Now they shall be destroyed by it.
>>566219298just say you play d4 and you finish the game in 1 day you goddamn subhuman faggot
APOLOGIZE TO ZACCIE RIGHT FUCKING NOW RETARDS
ITS OVER POESISSIES
so its truly over?
genuinely what is the point of retarded uniques like this? not even dad gamers would use this while leveling.
>>5662051070. They vibecode, confirmed.
>builder>>>>>spender
is a casual spear bleed build possible or do i have to get super specific uniques and ascendancy?
>>566219514D4 is a better game. This isn't the "gotcha" that you think it is.
>>566219668GGG lost their touch with making flavorful uniques, too obvious a reference to Hemophilia and the Habsburgs.
>>566219253retard
>>566219668That's one of the most offensive things about poe that I don't likeI'll never have this shit when I level my first character. Nobody will ever drop that, it's lvl 1 at best you'll get it on a first drop on the first boss at lvl like 5-10.This is for a second run.But by the time I'm uber farmed, I also don't need that shit I'll rather use a lucky yellow one that I will also probably haveThis game is so stupid sometimes
>>566219553did he fix life?
>>566219945No one keeps low level yellows retard. People will just open their unique tab and pull out random shit while leveling alt.
>>566219873>D4 is a better game. This isn't the "gotcha" that you think it is.nice self report you dumb nigger
>>566205661Ice Monke or Ice Raven, or idk but i am defo doing some companion. And ofc gonna force mod lines on them before i capture them. Going to do my first ssf run this league.
>>566219668So you can upgrade it with the new system.
>>566205661queen of filth
I already have money on steam to buy the game but I'm not buying until they give out a discount
>>566218989>being completely honest, when i was fully in charge of something it would end up smaller, like sentinel.CHRIS WAS THE ANTIBLOAT GUY
taming the tornado rape bird to make all the enemies feel the bullshit he put me through
>a major D4 patch just adds one new boss>POE2's minor patch added six bosses and that only represented like 10% of the patch's new context>tubbers nitpick about swords to attack the whole patch
aint got no time to poo2, playing a real game instead
>>566220430kek
>>566220697D4 added an entire new campaign and 2 brand new classes.PoE2 added.... uhhh... a new passive tree... LOL
What do I do for 3 weeks
>>566220930Have we seen the full tree? I want to count how many multi choice nodes there are
>>566220930did diablo 4 add diablo yet?
What is mageblood and why are the poo1 boomers soifacing over it?
>>566220930>100$+tip>freeuh oh
Atlas remains a mostly meaningless random tile chaseTowersMap size to character speed ratio hasn't changed, in fact map traversing seems even slower in the videoEnforced pseudo-HC ruleset remains as a core design for softcore, cutting down portals/respawns in endgame, completely resetting bosses on deaths etc.Ascendancy trials remain the hot garbage time wasters disconnected from normal gameplay, forcing 90% of players to buy carriesPassive tree remains a shadow of it's PoE1 version, with silly downsides and limited options - both in pathing and in meaningful nodes. The new version of 'voices' just highlights how limited the PoE2 tree is in comparisonGame remains bloated with unskippable cutscenes, invulnerability phases and mob/boss spawning animations and similar time wasters you never want to see past the first timeThere was no mention about tackling most skills being clunky and completely not viable in endgame, limiting builds to few cookie cuttersSkill gems level ups remain as drops, rather than... level upsMost skills remain tied to a weapon type, most ascendancies remain tied to 1-2 weapon typesGem supports remains a horrible misunderstanding of a mechanic in PoE2, with players forced to pick a downside their build can manage while scraping for any dps increase that will keep them on the curve, rather than being excited about new effects that will elevate their buildsCampaign remains too long, too much on the rails and too slow. Cockroach GPS doesn't solve the core issue that leveling a new character is a dreadful experience. How far have we come from the days of Diablo 2, where the start of a new character was the most exciting, not most dreading moment.There's still no simple caster-centric ascendancy. I want to simply blast my way forward with self-cast fireballs or other amazing spells.
>>566219227i didnt watch do you have a link?
>The 1.0 update will come with the last two acts of the campaign and every ascendancy (sub-class) for the existing character classes. Only a few of the other five previously announced classes, however, will make it in time, which also means all the new weapon types, like swords, might not make it in either.OHNONONONO
>>566220930>patch 3.0.1>read: not starting with 0 means this is a post-launch patch of a fully developed game>one of the "brand new" classes is the Paladin
why do they tie skills to uniques fucking retards wtf are you doing
>>566220026let him do it his way
>>566220697all the bosses added this patch are literally recycled content. Expedition boss is T17 citadel boss. Breach is keepers. Etc. You would know this if you weren't retarded. It's literally lowest common denominator recycled garbage
>https://youtu.be/M0PhEFcIkg4?t=1420this statistic is actually super interesting. also this is by far the best interview with jonathan that i have ever watched
first league with challenges means first real league, sorry chuddos, if you played the game til then you've only beta tested it, the real playas will start playing now
>>5662075631.0 will be full campaign.1.1 will be a single new class.
>>566221030play godshin
>>566221480>GGG says they are developing both games in parallel>they are being developed in parallel>for example, POE1 gets the waystone system of POE2>wadahek why they recycle system???
>spirit walker is a minion build>huntress starts 300000000 miles away from minion nodeslol.....lmao......ok poe2 dude....
>>566221539Did you think we were joking when we said we're going to skip bad leagues?
Who's "we", you gay retard?
>>566221807companion nodes my dude
>>566221539kinda speaks why they don't care about in-league retention, there is basically no guarantee people even come back league-to-league
>>566221751when did they ever say they were developing them with the same content in mind? What the fuck is the point of having 2 games if all the mechanics are the same?
>>566222013>can't play your archetype until like level 40wow epic.............
so if i want to play a new class i have to wait for 1.0? how does that make sense
>>566222076and why they do necropolis once in a while
>>566221539That's me, I skipped like 3 leagues.
>>566221807it's a companion build friendo
>>566222109Because they intend to kill POE1, which was only brought with regular leagues because the content for POE2 is massively delayed.
>>566222205There are 3 weeks left. They may shadow drop the new class if they finish it during that time.
>>566222131yes that's how it goes with most builds if you're lucky
>>566222205yupan entire year in an early access game with no new classes or skills pretty fuckin cool right? any indie dev would be crucified on the spot and have massive negative review bombs but GGG is COOKING with 1.0 TRUST guys, TRUST THE HECKIN SCIENCE!!! COMPARISON IS THE THIEF OF JOY!!!
>>566222391Stop coping
>>566222109the first time they showed poe2 they said they were developing content for both at the same time and a lot of content would be playable in poe1 as early as metamorph or whatever league was right after exilecon.
>>566205834Smith bear again, fuck stat-juggling on a league starter.
>>566218263It is?
>>566221539It makes sense. No one other than turbo autists are gonna play the same game forever. Most normal players play like 1 in every 3 or 4 leagues and grind it super hard. It was the same for poe1.
>they ignored the swordniggercope weekend warriors and gave endgame for the true chads>redditors will still be locking themselves out of maps when they run out of livesim fuckin readyim ready to huff alva's unwashed pits
Reminder that poopers2 is still the more popular game.
poe players are kinda like toddlers>no swords? game will fail!yeah man, duelist will just never come
>>566205834Spark CoC Comet BMGotta build temple
>>566222465they released an act, 3 epilogue acts, two classes and several ascendancies
Troonathan saved D4
>>566206372It sounds like the Kalruugan skills are supposed to fill the "new class" space, but I... Am skeptical. Because it appears to be solely an endgame mechanic.
>>566222774>It was the same for poe1.even more interesting is that less people play league to league in poe1 than in poe2. it was this initial disappointment in poe2 performance that made him look into it.
>>566220107>>566219514tranime meltie alert
>>566207881>forgot Wolcen: Lords of MayhemChris Wolcen is displeased
You vill replace all your defenses vith vard. You vill play vard skills and spend all your vard.
>>566222891they said the entire game was 80% finished at the BEGINNING of early access
new and flat>>566223226>>566223226>>566223226
It’s fucking hilarious that D4 somehow won
>>566223201uh huh. and?
>>566207861>they added trails to campaign>trails in maps isn't far off.I hate this casualized timeline. I miss when games were made for gamers.
>>566214690These sorts of meta skills are always even worse than they seem at first, because not only do they arbitrarily cuck you with 70% attack speed, they ALSO slap on a 20-30% LESS damage multiplier that is ON TOP of the lost opportunity cost from having an actual 6 link skill with a support gem giving +30-40% more damage in its place. So you're not just doing 30% less, you're doing 1*0.7*0.8*0.7=0.392, or literally 60% less fucking damage than if you just self cast the damn thing yourself, AND it costs ascendancy points which are upwards of 40% more damage themselves.
>>566209997This endgame overhaul is a joke thobeit.
>>566210593Bs. Poe2 needed endgame overhaul before 0.4
holy shit brosi just got off work and watched the 0.5 overviewwe are eating so fucking goodi dont even know what i want to roll when the season starts
