This hype is kinda scary.

[Rager]

Don't get me wrong it looks good, but if anyone has been around POE, we understand GGG can be very hit or miss. Like, I feel like people have short term memories of just how long it took to build POE up to be decent, let alone good.

And while this looks good, How the game balance, the items, builds, and overall feel of the game has not been tested. What they showed other ARPGS have as well.

Do I also need to remind some of you, how LONG it took them to even make melee feel good in poe 1?


I feel like some of this insane hype is going to do more harm than good.

I'm incredibly excited to play Poe2 , this is everything I wanted and more.
The art/art style , graphics, spell effects, ost , monster/boss design, changes to the systems, skill gems out of gear, in game wiki, better explanations and more , it looks amazing

The bosses in poe2 are so well done, souls like with good hitboxes, mechanics. I love that you can dodge and the bosses in maps don't just melt
I bought the EA pack for Poe1 in 2012 after 4500h , here we go again in Poe2 <3
Coop will be better in Poe2, skills interact with each other like they showed in the gameplay trailer
There will be bugs, game balance, items problems , that's why it's EA
I'm optimistic , settlers of kalguur was great they hit a new record peak for concurrent players at 350,000 too

That's what EA for. They need data for balance, and more data they get, easier it will be.

Melee in PoE2 is good now, people that had chance to play PoE2 say so, if you look at any melee footage it looks good.

Yeah melee footage looks great, I'n Arpgs like poe I like to play summoner,mage but in souls games I only play melee and melee gameplay has that souls like feel, I'm definitely gonna try melee too

I skipped all the giveaways and bought supporter pack to get access to EA. I might buy another one for xbox too if i might not have access to pc as a backup.

Im pretty sure poe 2 will be best arpg for a while as i do not see anything that can overthrow it anytime soon. Also love how you are not forced to pay for anything but some basic stash QOL things and rest is just pure cosmetics and no pay to win crap.

Pretty hyped for the game to be honest, only worried about servers as it looks like this will be very popular game for EA launch day but those always gets fixed within few days so a minor delay of bad gaming experience. Hope ppl do not put in too many negatice reviews as if there are server issues and in these type of games there are almost every single time.

Man. The EA Already destroy every other Hack'n'slash, about end game.
LOL

[TheOne320]

I like that many people will be playing as that is good for the economy.

[goldbergeri79]

Well i did and bought supporter pack for xbox too. Its installing now and just need to wait for the 6th day.

even the server at day-1 get issues will not review about a back-end issues, GGG respect Gamers and did carry-over as they promise.

SHUT UP, DONT CARE, LET ME IN NOW

i think a lot of people are going to be very disappointed. not because the game isn't great but its just not what they are expecting. a lot, and i mean a LOT of people are on the hype train because they're fave streamer/vtuber is going to play it for a couple of 4 hour streams and so they just have to play it too.

A lot of these people are being told its a much more simplified/streamlined game than POE so they think its like diablo where upgrades drop on every screen and an upgrade is where you look at a big number at the top of the item and if its bigger you put it on.

There is no better compliment for the game other than casuals quitting because they are not intelligent enough to play it

To me that's a big W

Makes me feel good

Is this sarcasm?
I feel like the longer PoE went on, the worse it got.
Going from being able to see what you're fighting, and attacking things deliberately, to not being able to see anything while running faster than the particle effects mowing down screen full of mobs at a time using one button.

Early access may be the best this game will ever be.

I feel like, in order to say this, you weren't around back when poe released.

It was a 10/10 from the start.

Poe in beta was everything diablow, emphasis on the blow, 3 wished it could be.

[serotoninpack]

The hype is scary tho'. So many games on the market and none (or a only a very few) are fun.
