I am real it went in reverse.
Started good and got progressively worse over the years.
PoE2 is just a reset button because they driven themselves into a corner with all the pointless bloat of PoE1 and they can't just remove content because that won't sit well with the players.
>got progressively worse over the years.
you never even played the game back then, zoomie
dried lake farm was peak gameplay in your opinion, isn't it, moron?
he's right in a sense, the speed meta has gone too far and there's no fixing it. Easier to just reset the whole thing by making a sequel, hopefully we return back to the good old days
hopefully melee will be in a better place
They will keep updating PoE 1 for the zoomers and currency autists, hopefully they stay there and it takes many years for them to corrupt PoE 2 before we need PoE 3 for another reset due to all the accumulated power we gain each league
2 surs within 20 runs or so, shit was cash
got another one off a corpse earlier
I don't know whether to just stick to the chests or waste time doing all the poppables just in case I get another lucky one
>poe >mechanics >content
lol
lmao
Poe is really shallow and difficulty lies in checking what is currently in the meta
Most of the content is just trash
I don't remember a single arpg with so many junk legendary items and item stats
>Poe is really shallow and difficulty lies in checking what is currently in the meta >moron admits they can't think for themselves >gets filtered by the game
wtf i love poe now?
He's right tho, the game is just right click until the screen is dead and the loot pops no matter what build you play there is no difference in playstyle. It's just zoom, click, zoom, click and make sure to upkeep maintenance buffs like flasks and cries etc. The game is won in the build creation the same way warframe is, however warframe has better gameplay despite being just as boring and repetitive.
99.9% of the playerbase do not make their own builds, those who do make their own builds know that the tree is not nearly as complicated as people make it out to be. You will always take the same wheels depending on what build you are making because those wheels on the tree are simply the most efficient per skill point. The game is needlessly obtuse and a reason people find it so confusing is because mechanics are not explained to the end user which imo is a failure of game design, I have 1.4k hour on this game and I don't actually think I had fun, just endlessly reading wiki page after wiki page to try and understand shit that should be explained in game but it isn't because the kiwi devs are lazy and chris wilson actually hates the people who play his game.
>He's right tho, the game is just right click until the screen is dead and the loot pops no matter what build you play there is no difference in playstyle.
No bwo you dont understand, poe is really deep and the content is so good, they only lose 50% of the playerbase two weeks after the release of a new league
Black person, I picked out one exaggerated statement from a post made of exaggerated statements >there is no difference in playstyle
go play a slammer and then a coc build
if you reduce every aspect to "hurrr its just clicking buttons in the end" then you could say that call of duty has the same gameplay as need for speed
I'm not going to address every single one of your moronic statements
path of shitstain is also dogshit otherwise 90% of players wouldn't drop out after only 1 week every league because everyone expects something good but they come back to disappointment rinse repeat no one wants to deal with zoom pinyata simulator will dozens of systems and having to install bunch of 3rd party shit and on top the abysmal trade
>says anon after one of the most popular leagues with best player retention in history
One thing I don't understand is why poe threads on Ganker are always full of completely outrageous exaggeration, to the point of ridiculousness. It's way worse in poe threads than other game threads
It's just a sign that Ganker users have been pushed out by reddit users.
It's basically all the same crowd that sits there and spams on reddit how Chris Wilson personally killed their dog because they didn't get a perfect 6 mod item in 20c.
player count records every league
Why are you lying?
They cant break a 160k peak in 10 months
Also the peak is because people were hyped for D4 after the beta lmao
Carried by a dead game
Cause it's literally impossible to compete with content. There's just too much content in Poe. In fact Poe is too bloated. That's why they started to remove some older league and new league not necessary will go core as of lately.
There's no real point to completing all content even if you could because most content doesn't give anything worthwhile.
Besides, you need to wait and grind for hours before you can try the high end content once.
Fix your fricking trading, Chris. Enough is enough. When each new league's economy is very obviously controlled by an RMT group enough is enough. Fix your fricking trade system.
You do know those mechanics and content you love so much were added league after league right? Do you really expect a game to release at the state PoE is currently at?
There's absolutely no point playing beyond the first two weeks of a league.
If you want to start now, just wait for the next league and try again then.
PoE is an overly bloated game with dead content all around it. The more they add the worse it gets. It's a game about micro managing everything now. There is 1001 ways the game intentionally tries to slow you down. Hell Chris Wilson even said he wants players to "feel the weight". Having to manually pick up league currencies instead of them auto going into your inventory. Having to balance a hundred different ailments that inflict your character. The million layers of RNG there is to crafting. The only reason people still play is addiction.
>having a lot of content in a game is bad, give me my 20 hour cinematic experience! >wtf why does the evil developer want me to actually play and engage with the videogame?
Ganker poe threads are pure fricking comedy
that would require them to make an actually good game and no dev wants to do that. also poe is killing itself with poe2 so it's not a problem anymore
It didn't require it from PoE so why would it require it from them?
The game is like 12 years of build up content. Get fricking real.
I am real it went in reverse.
Started good and got progressively worse over the years.
PoE2 is just a reset button because they driven themselves into a corner with all the pointless bloat of PoE1 and they can't just remove content because that won't sit well with the players.

dried lake farm was peak gameplay in your opinion, isn't it, moron?
As opposed to burial chambers farm?
as opposed to farming any content you ever want, you reductionist moron
I don't want to farm anything because the game is shit and you can just buy everything.
>i don't want to play video games
t. anon on a video game board
No, I don't want to play the boring bloated trash that is PoE.
>>i don't want to play video games
Literally wasting your time doing the same shit for hours just for some pixels
Fricking mazed lmao

They will keep updating PoE 1 for the zoomers and currency autists, hopefully they stay there and it takes many years for them to corrupt PoE 2 before we need PoE 3 for another reset due to all the accumulated power we gain each league
that would require effort, as opposed to quick cashgrab and shutdown in 2 years
it's a niche genre for autists
true
I just got up to over halfway through my 1000 lower kurast runs in D2 today
highest rune?
2 surs within 20 runs or so, shit was cash
got another one off a corpse earlier

incorrect stupid
>nah bro trust me this build totally works
>also ignore the mageblood lol
just admit it you're room temperature iq
Let's see your homebrew
This is what I played last league in SSF, enough to stomp the whole game, never die and clear screen and a half away with vaal smite
So how was it to completely ignore all league mechanics and run white maps?
You tell me, I've cleared all content except ubers.
If you can't progress past white maps with that anon's build, you are completely 50IQ moronic gorilla Black person

>I have 1.4k hour on this game and I don't actually think I had fun
Then you're actually braindamaged and your opinion is worthless.
Refute my point instead of picking out 1 exaggerated statement.
>the game is just right click until the screen is dead
>He's right tho, the game is just right click until the screen is dead and the loot pops no matter what build you play there is no difference in playstyle.

>play puzzle game
>look up walkthrough for solution to every puzzle
>"wow this game is really shallow"
>have to use 3rd party tools to see the shape of the puzzle pieces
Reminder that the two biggest devs excluding the balding homosexual said that PoE 1 was always dogshit and just a stepping stone for PoE 2
>source?
>my untreated schizophrenia of course
>aoe enemies until it no longer works: the game

Yeah I don't understand why PoEtards exaggerate and call this game good all the time as well.

most other arpgs dont even follow a seasonal format like PoE does, why would they need to?
why bother when bullet-heaven is a better genre
Cause it's literally impossible to compete with content. There's just too much content in Poe. In fact Poe is too bloated. That's why they started to remove some older league and new league not necessary will go core as of lately.
There's no real point to completing all content even if you could because most content doesn't give anything worthwhile.
Besides, you need to wait and grind for hours before you can try the high end content once.

Cuz other games make more money?
social justice
Fix your fricking trading, Chris. Enough is enough. When each new league's economy is very obviously controlled by an RMT group enough is enough. Fix your fricking trade system.

What the frick are you trading if you don't have anything earned?
