POE2 IS RUTHLESS! - Reaction to Kripparrian's Review

[@damo06ab]

I really like your point on coming home from work, having played on one char for many, many hours, and you probably have capped res, good defences etc., and you still have to rely on dodge roll. What I like in PoE1 is, that the progression leveling feels great and that when you reach end game and have invested a lot of currency into your build, most content in PoE1 is trivial. These two things are missing by a lot in PoE2. Sure it's EA, but they're FAR from getting to the good feeling from PoE2.

It's funny, I only played PoE 2 for like 4 hours and had exactly the same problems Kripp is talking about arise in end-game. No matter your class you have to constantly dodge. Maybe some people say this isn't difficulty, but for all I care, I can't be bothered pressing a dodge button every 1.5 seconds despite going all into defenses, when that's just not the playstyle I'm going for. Back to PoE 1 for me

[@santipenalver3136]

You did everything. In POE 1. PoE 1 is a time sink and knowleadge sink. This is a you need hands besides that thing.

This game isn't mechanically difficult, it's just tedious, people will learn

[@krelrykobisnos]

poe 2 is a game for maybe 2 leagues to play no one will grind thiscrap every league playing ruthless mod with rolling 5 times and using skill 1 time

ive never heard someone give a review of halo by playing the first chapter of the campaign. but that's what's happening. tons of ... people? giving what they believe to be valid input. after playing the equivalent of the first chapter of halo

I cannot WAIT to watch asmongold try to justify the dogshit mapping system. Everything he hates about D4 when it comes to one shots, not clear ground aoe attacks, on death effects and off screen snipes (or in PoE2, snipes from the darkness as well). Let's see how he backpeddles this time around.

[@ggzii]

He won't get to end game. They just shill and move on to whatever the next big game is.

I was rocking ice nova of frostbolts in poe1 with ridiculous amounts of evasion. I had fortify and mind over matter. T16 and T17 maps with5 scarabs. I was still dying. I love how these new guys are like thinking that they are fine. I stopped playing poe2 the next day. Uninstalled earlier this week since this game will fulfill my expectations in months from now. Like this is obvious for someone with xp but 😂😂😂😂😂. Let them work and do the testing I guess. And it is too slow. I have reactions I just don't have the time to waste.

[@venko1299]

I was leaching ridiculous amounts of es and life as well with comfortable spell damage suppression. 😂😂😂
