Imagine thinking this sort of stuff will not be in PoE2.
Path of Exile 2's development is fueled purely out of spite and hatred of what PoE1 has become, and it required developing a whole separate game to address these problems. That's the reason they split them instead of doing the whole two campaigns one shared endgame concept. I highly doubt PoE2 will have these issues anytime soon, unless GGG doesn't have the fortitude to tell the zoom zoomers to stay in their fucking containment game.

^Nice fanfic :lol:
I'll just copy this from another thread cause it fits like a glove
The focus on coop was clearly a crutch to use "fun with friends" to attempt to hide the uninspired game at its core. American Kiwi game industry is so hopeless now they can't even match a mindless mid budget action game from 2011 2013

Because it is a zoom zoom game now and boring. Having "great defenses" means having better/faster offense than your enemy and you are supposed to clear maps in 2 minutes while playing flask piano or you are playing wrong.

It is nothing like the PoE I started playing and felt in love with.
PoE2 does seem to be similar to that. Whole game will be slower because even normal enemies can kill you fast no matter your build so drops and whole game will be adjusted for that. PoE1 was adjusted for clearing maps in 2 minutes.
Can you show me on the doll where the bad people forced you to "clear maps in 2 minutes"? Go play Ruthless, because that is literally the PoE experience you want.
Also, flask piano? You know we've had flask enchantments for 3 years now, right? The only flask I press is the life flask and that's less than once per map on average.
Ruthless is still nothing like release PoE, it is some bastard child that nobody wants.

As for 2 minutes, whole design is forcing me. Almost all extra content is time or area gated or you get shit. You either kill fast or you die or get no rewards.

As for flasks, fuck that "automation". To automate 5 flasks it at least 10c per flask cost, requires trading and something you will be doing after 30-40 h of playing. It might not exist as well by that time.

It takes you 30 hours to finish the campaign? I think I'm seeing the problem now.

Imagine taking damage.

:lol: What extra content is time gated? Expedition? Blight? Harvest? Harbingers? Ultimatum? Heist? Delirium and Alva are the only ones that have timers, and those have atlas passives to make it easier or disable it. I guess research in betrayal too. So don't run it?
This is 100% a you problem.

I am the one who's butthurt, not the person who's been whining about the game for the last few pages.

DPS check is just another form of time gate. Better question would be what content doesn't require a dps check to give meaningful loot. Heist, Lab, and Harvest are pretty much the only ones that don't. Watching doors open in Heist is cancer, Lab gives fuck all loot because it's balanced for 900% movespeed after you looked up the map layout online, and Harvest doesn't give loot because it's balanced for people swapping items in some turbo autist trade group.

Out of those Lab is only one that does not require good dps as rares in Heist and rares in Harvest can become super tanky. And I have not found a way to skip all fighting in Heist, there is too much of them. Maybe there are specific builds for that for Heist but that does not disapprove me, I am talking about average player experience.
Maybe Blight is only one that does not require fast character with good dps as you can pick that node that gives towers lots of damage while it nerfs your own but that has another problem of monsters getting stuck on map all the time and you needing to go kill them anyways. Sometimes those are tough monsters and even without that node it takes a while to kill them..

You don't need any damage for Heist, just have a character that doesn't fucking die to a wet fart. You can run all your contracts and blueprints white.

Harvest doesn't require good DPS. :lol: Define what this "meaningful loot" is for you because you appear to be as clueless as the other guy.

Considering that you're missing out on the league that gives the most "meaningful loot" without any DPS requirement in a very long while, from Kingsmarch, I think you yourself have no idea what it is that you want.

Why would I want to run all of them white? You are supposed to get more loot with modifiers.

Modifiers on contracts/blueprints do not affect chest loot, only monster drops. Side loot is nerfed so in grand heists there is no point in opening every extra chest (and it also requires farming even more reveals) so alert reduction is not that useful either.

I haven't played in over a year, I'm not about to touch the poop again because some entirely uncritical shill tells me that it's better this time, no really!

Why does harvest require good dps? I've encountered obnoxiously tanky shit (did they finally stop it overlapping with the fucking multiple defense mod nemesis shit?) but it's not like expedition where shit spawns with crazy regen on a regular basis making it literally impossible to clear. Like I said, the issue is the loot has been nerfed into the ground at this point, you're not upgrading fuck all with it unless you're running around with gear that has like 2 useful affixes or you're dealing with tier 25 mirror shit and ran it 4 billion times.

After many days of internal discussions, we made the decision to not launch the 3.26 expansion for Path of Exile 1 this year. We’re looking to announce this new league in early 2025 (think late January) however we have to remain flexible with this window as releasing an entirely new project can come with challenges that we cannot predict.

This means that the Settlers league will be extended to early 2025.



The forever league. :betrayed:

Not sure if this forces POE1 players to go play POE2 out of boredom, but I'm fairly certain this will damage player numbers in the long term
