Gameplay is too clunky for what they are going for

[hellscream]

So executioner shows this off imo, you can't stand still and shoot, your skills sometimes don't go off, your movement gets stuck in animation and don't move.


also we love the random 180 OHK skills in games :P

Gear is a massive issue aswell... I'm feeling D4 here lol 6 levels and no gear upgrades... If the loot kept up with level then the movement issues and delays wouldn't be much of an issue.

body blocking needs looking into aswell.

The only difficulty I see is a false one due to bad design... its why all the dark soul clones fail at the core design.

if POE2 continues POE1 path for reading or viewing streamers for working build, game will die. Surely people will play. But having to read guide and following it in order to complete Early campaign is BAD design. even in POE1, without crafting it was doable to get to act 3. here? Dodge simulator. Or follow some guide.

You mean you DONT like watching youtube videos like this

because the game isnt balanced very well and only certain builds work? Look at this absolute clown! The smugness is so bad I'm gonna pass out!

Ah yes. "Bro"
Must have missed the words that said. "Nothing is dropping."
"Bro"

I do not have rings, an amulet, a chest piece, nor have any dropped, nor have any been decent at any level up in either of the two towns any time I check. Neither do I have enough currency to craft. Neither do I have enough magic/rare items to disenchant for shards for 1 orb to craft 1 item for it to be utterly useless, to play 4 hours for another 1 try. - The other equip I have is just +rarity. with weapon + focus being +1 level to gems. Yipee!

Please.

"Bro."

Its not that hard.

The game needs to drop a little more gear at the level you are at. My level 19 Merc still does not have an amulet drop for him, and I'm not buying one until one drops. Also a lot of skills are just bad. Still enjoying the game but they need to fix some stuff.

Congratulations, you're getting stunned (animation-broken) mid-skill.

You're meant to craft more. You get a ton of craftables that add affixes, upgrade gear, etc. Instead of trying to force the game to work the way you want it to, go with the tools it's providing you in how it actually works.

So its back to needing to look up guides to play? I thought the whole point of PoE 2 was to streamline it? Also I really think the loot is broken I get zero ranger loot but only warrior and sorc drops...

the point of PoE2 was to modernize it.. they just wanted to make it a bit more accessible to newcomers, thats it.
That doesnt mean it is suddenly a casual game

i am really confused about all these tourists which seemingly never watched a video of the game before.

I agree they have to adjust some things a little bit but its not THAT hard... i started on hardcore on my first character and i am in act 2 and my character is still alive..

here you go

The vendors update their loot every time you level, so look for gear there, if you need it.

I'm unfortunately having to agree.
I thought they made crafting / loot / gear meaningful and its all been the same issue as Early Access POE 1. Nothing feels rewarding. Not enough currency to craft, full clear all areas in 2 acts with no uniques. Respawning white enemies that drop nothing at all, are just a timesink. It's pretty rough at the moment.

bro learn how to disenchant for shards.

bro learn how to salvage for shards.

bro learn how to pick up gold to buy from vendors.


bro it is not that hard. . .

So you watch streamers and follow like sheep? As nothing in game explains this...

[LeeRoyBrown]

Had absolutely none of these problems sounds like a skill issue. I heard Roblox is a great game for people who like simple controls.

[Maddawg]

You have to get/craft items and then post them for sale via 3rd party sites to make good currency...wish there was an in-game auction house so those less savvy could trade more items...buy the stash tab..put item up get msged mid boss have to port find/get item make sure you don't get scammed etc to trade ....GGG did a currency auction house in poe1!!

The game isn't even hard... its the lack of gear making it hard...

Yes body blocking needs to be removed. I have zero complaints about the game, for me it's perfect so far aside from body blocking. Not sure why they decided to implement it but it's awful.

Body blocking is solved by positioning correctly and using knockback skills and travel skills that allow you to move to specific locations without colision with enemies.....

There is nothing to explain.......... The ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ game TELLS you how to use the items when you pick them up. All you have to do is READ.

You'd have hated Diablo 2, sometimes could take forever to get a new piece of gear lol.

What year is it... Also buying stuff from vendors because the gear drop is that low is what?

🙄🤒🤡

Цитата допису hellscream:

Well so far nothing has been said of crafting in game... Until you said it I didn't have a clue. If crafting is the main thing... why have loot then... why is off class the only loot that dropping lol. ARPG are about loot and the little rush you get when you find a good one...

Blizzard does a better job and that is a low bar lol.

I mean, they did good with Diablo 3. 4 was just a train wreck.

No game has ever needed a guide to play. Some games are just more complex than others and that is fine. It's okay to actually need to turn your brain on for some games. People say this same thing about D4, like you have to look up build guides to play. It's just wrong. I've never used a build guide in any game because half the fun is discovering things yourself.

They make auto battlers with 2 upgrade choices per level up for people looking for brain rot gameplay.
