We Got INSANE AMOUNT OF CONTENT! - PoE 2 Reveal Recap

[@payamace]

Man that was a 💣! PoE2 early access has so many more bosses and end games than D4 full game has after 6 seasons and a dlc. The amount of depth and innovation of this game, D4 can't even get close to half of that. And this is not even the full game. RIP D4 ⚰️💀

I'm so POEbrained right now I thought that was an Alch orb and not a bomb

[@TylerSmith-oz7ry]

One company set out to make a game. The other company set out to make money.

[@Vibestand]

If POE2 is the ultimate best ARPG game, D4 will take 100 years to reach. Not that Blizzard don’t have such ability or resources, they just want to slowly come out with content, so that the game can last for a decade and keep making money.

[@PsycoMouse]

[@ZRG22]

And blizzard has like 100x the funds. They have no excuse.

[@Iggnaccy]

At 6:40 I think it was an Annulment orb rather than a scour, and the meta thing made it target a prefix or suffix, rather than completely random

[@ghodoroh9957]

I have a theory for the third Trial ( of ascendancy). Each one revealed so far is associated with one of the major culture/tribe of Wraeclast : 1) Sanctum 2.0 -> Desert/Maraketh 2) Ultimatum 2.0 -> Jungle/Vaal Ultimatum was re-introduced during the developpement of POE2 and Sanctum was told to have assets from POE2. Which other game mechanic in POE1 is told to have assets from POE2, build around a tribe, and focused about a "Trial" or some sort of ritual. Trial of the Ancestors -> Karui (third big faction), litteral "Trial" in it, long enough to challenge the player (10 rounds) It will be way to dank if it's true !

[@ILonelyWolfI]

That sounds reasonable. In addition to that they distributed some currency and Itemtypes to those trials, and with the amount of flexibility in PoE2 i can also see tattoo´s comming back - which we have not seen yet. Would love TotA to come back for sure though.

[@dirtymightmusic5239]

I really hope that you are right. Despite all the balance issues that happened around it it was my favourite mechanic of all time. Was such a shame to see it not going core

[@Kyoth3]

Id love that because i missed that league and would like to try it.

[@NickMcMillen16]

I could be missing something, but I do wonder if the 3rd one will relate to trans gems and the ability to receive them. I don't think I saw anything about Trans Gems. I doubt they are completely getting rid of them since they add sooooo many numbers of skills. So maybe the 3rd one is similar to the current lab we have? (I hope not, I hate lab), or something where you can put in gems to a shrine.

[@ghodoroh9957]

@@NickMcMillen16 Honestly, I don't really mind trans gems for an EA. May be for realese or further on, but it seems that we have already so much build building depth with this EA.

[@nytepulse1446]

A question I would like answered is, will there be some sort of in game resource for information on monsters we can raise as spectres? Like maybe a bestiary or Necronomicon of sorts that we can use to find potential spectres, their stats and maybe the ability to filter through tags/categories? It doesn't have to be limited to spectres, but some way of accessing information in monsters in game. Understandably, with the amount of monsters in this game maybe it could be a release feature when more important things are finished... but it would be an awesome addition. Maybe it could only show what you have discovered on your account (not per character) and it could be a challenge to complete it/discover everything in it. Maybe it could include a section on bosses and minibosses? Just a couple of ideas. Keep up the great work Ghazzy!

[@Granulomacure]

Great video as usual. I have been watching your videos and streams since the first month I played POE. Continue the good work. I have a few questions suggestions, not sure if it ever was answered: -How do they plan to address the spectres shytshow? -Do they plan to have many classes that can play minions (like poe1 with necro and templars)?

[@Lorentz21]

Questions: 1. In showcases our characters say virtue gems are forbidden but very easily pick them up right after that. Should there may be some build up and dire situation to force the use of them? 2. Removal of gems in items allowed us to fully appreciate new items art but now sockets obscure that yet again. Is there any concern system is kinda working against one of the stated goals of removing sockets from items? 3. We saw that jeweler orbs increase number of sockets for a gem(their tooltip says so). If one allocates ascendancy that grants gem, do they come with 5 sockets already? If not would act of deallocating and allocating back waste jewelers in the process?

[@gamewhizjo]

As someone who just started playing POE 1 and only has 100 hrs nothing is really that complicated as long as you aren’t scared to mess around with all the mechanics and fuck up every now and then that’s how you learn. The crafting system was the hardest thing to get a grasp on and while I destroyed plenty items eventually I got a grasp on it. Im obviously not very good at it but I have a relative understanding of it and POE2 looks like it’s going to be much more forgiving in both crafting materials and ability to fix a “broken” item. My best advice to anyone jumping on brand new is take the game slow just have fun and mess around with everything. You can always make a new character and find new gear the game is the most fun when you don’t stress things so much and just enjoy the journey. I was a die hard Diablo and LE fan until I started playing POE like a few months ago. It’s a fantastic game and I’m so exited for the EA of POE 2

[@ryan_gaming_hub]

Ghazzy ask him about transfigured gems, alternate gems are kind of build defining and on the same topic ask if BAMA is still on the menu. If it is I will have an absolute blast with it.

[@Majdar]

I would refund the pack on steam and buy it directly with your account on POE. if you read the FAQ about early access, it says you will be able to claim a key to unlock the steam client and play from there. I wouldn't trust steam to have the pack through them in time, but maybe its not going to be a problem, but just saying.

[@Zenbubbles]

Please ask whether the asynchronous trading or buyout system is coming in early access, and if not, if they are planning to implement it in the future.

[@crazy-tommy]

Do we already know how minions react to weapon set and skill tree switching? Do minions maintain the stats that they had when you summoned them or do you nerf your active minions if you switch to another weapons / skill set by using a different skill? Would be cool if you can have a minion/totem hybrid build that uses the weapon / skill set switching to buff them both.

[@georgewilliamgutarracampos6262]

Acording to the presentation I think you have to use a scepter, maybe there will be another bases like wands. Also I think there might be some minons nodes in the three. Also I think permanent minions would use the new resource (scence I think it was called).

[@hybridius9]

Could we get some clarification how coop will function? I mean they haven t told us if boss loot and league mechanics stay the same like in poe 1 or do we get some quality of life like in last epoch where everyone can contribute their fragment and receive loot.

[@DRUBIN1986]

Dont worry if there is no necromancer! Wont it be nice not to be pigeon holed into one class for minions from the beginning? Warrior warcry minions? Time stop minions? Gemling spectres?

[@blackomega34]

Also you can get like 6L on every minion; I doubt minions will be lacking for power.

[@fennecfox3893]

But sounds like the 2 ascenancies we get has no minion focus. Definitely a bummer. That has to be a lot of power minions will be missing unless the third ascendancy also has no minion focus. In that case I guess minions are supposed to be at the correct power. Seems strange though to not have any minion focus for the witch.

[@Zenbubbles]

​@@fennecfox3893The Witch ascendency Infernalist has minion support, as in all minions ignite. Also, mercenary gem dude can be used very well for minions, and there might be others.

[@FacePlant1324]

I love that The crafting is complex but very simplified compared to POE1. The thing that I honestly dislike the most is the lab trials. I don't like either of those mechanics. But loved everything else about the game that they showed

[@georgewilliamgutarracampos6262]

Indeed. Lab is anoying. They should have just itemized the enchants from old lab and keep the new system of gems in Heist.

[@lilliyanehaxahira9383]

A question that won't let me go, maybe Jonathan is willing to answer: What does GGG expect from their poe 1 community? Is the vision that we all change to poe2 and celebrate it, and moving to poe1 in between to sniff a bit of nostalgia while waiting for the next poe2 league? Don't get me wrong, I'm excited for poe2, but I am poe1 lover in the first place atm, and I feel a bit strange from time to time as if I am asked to leave behind my comfy home 😢

[@gerbo8018]

[@pencilcheck]

does early access progression carry over into the final release?

[@supmikey123]

so many of my friends went straight to the page and purchased supporter packs after the reveal. After the reveal i think i might even play all characters

[@ondrejmarek1980]

the beginning of the endgame atlas was showing waystones tier 1 and they said it's related to the level of mobs in them .. but when talking about the endgame pinnacle fight, there it shows tier 79 and above waystone needed .. this can mean one of few things - either the content is way more granular and we won't have 16 tiers one tier per monster level but maybe a 100 above lvl 65 with sublevels .. or .. we might in fact get alternate progression so instead of playing campaign over and over, we can start in that system from level 1 aka adventure more in d4

[@georgewilliamgutarracampos6262]

I think they take a lot of inspiration from LE and NOPE, you have to always play the campaign. They said it multiple times before. The reason, I think, is that even in weaker versions, the endgame mechanics are too powerful to use in campaign and they dont want you to rush it.

[@Attention80]

Great recap. A question I would have for them : Is Blight coming back and do you have a plan to make it relevant since anointments are moved to another mechanic?

[@georgewilliamgutarracampos6262]

I think they wont migrate all mechanics. I think that is one of the reasons why they decided to make a separated game instead of a new expansion of POE 1

[@Mike-jm4gg]

I know it’s all about money 😢….but I seriously think it’s time to upgrade…..maybe try to get a used rtx 2060 or 5600xt? But you also need to have a minimum cpu requirement for that upgrade to worth it.

[@georgewilliamgutarracampos6262]

I think you have to upgrade your graphic card but also If I not recall wrong. People said that POE 1 was badly optimized maybe POE 2 is not and you wont need a new graphic but still I think is better to upgraded.

[@Mike-jm4gg]

@@georgewilliamgutarracampos6262 4 Gb vram of the 1050ti is way too low. In poe the game is not really well optimized but it’s not about gpu, it’s about cpu. When you do real end game with lot of monsters and lot of projectiles, the cpu work so much you can go from 100fps to under 15 fps. Unfortunately I think it will be the same in poe2 but not as bad. At the end the cpu is really important in that game.

In PoE2, scepters and wands don't have attack stats; no base damage, attack speed, base crit, etc. So I imagine 'martial weapons' are weapons with base stats used for attacking. So the rune is meant for socketed weapons and not socketed armor, shields, or caster tools.

[@DRUBIN1986]

Kinda wish they spoke about some of the hypotheticals. Like what content they are hoping to get in to the game before launch. Also maybe what the other classes/ascendancies will be, if all 36 ascendancies are supposed to be for launch why not tell us what they are called

[@michael-d6w3y]

got a question, what is an ascendancy class? what’s the difference between that and regular classes.

[@GhazzyTV]

Ascendancy classes are basically you adding another smaller skill tree to your character, and your choices are based on your base class, so which, for example, will have the blood mage and the infernalist during early access.

[@michael-d6w3y]

@ nice, thanks for the answer. answering viewers questions will definitely bring more players to the game. Thanks!!

It’s basically the real class. The starting class isn’t character defining while the ascendancy shapes your build immensely

My main bummer from the reveal was this idea of a mandatory semi HC mode. Meaning loss of progress from a single death. So i would like to know why they did chose to punish the player so much in a game where it is impossible to know why you have died, you can guess but you cant know.

[@Alexia-ys6yx]

I just hope that now they make you lose progress like that on death, they won't take away exp on death anymore.

[@nhamatkhanhtoan6776]

Not knowing how you die is a poe1 problem that Johnathon has mentioned multiple time he'd like to address in poe2. From the looks of it, poe2 will have better visual clarity, and thus, players will have a better time extracting their cause of death. But we'll have to actually play the game to confirm this. Personally, I don't enjoy HC but do think some form of punishment for character death is necessary. Otherwise, if death holds no meaning, the challenges monsters impose on players will just feel shallow at best, and annoying at worst.
