GGG please play the new update yourselves.
I think the biggest and most important aspect of a game is whether or not the game is fun. Challenging content comes second.

NO ONE was complaining about how "easy" the game was before you guys released this season. It was perfectly balanced already. Enemies didn't feel like they died too quickly and the people you should be catering your game around should be the casual dads and people with 9-5 jobs, NOT top tier streamers who speedrun the game with top tier builds.

I say this with absolute confidence - The nerfs you've implemented into the game are NOT fun. They are not fun for anyone. No one can do any damage at all. All the mobs in the entire game take way too long to kill. This game in it's current state is simply not fun.

I honestly and truly think if you revert the games difficulty and undo all the nerfs but keep all the added content, you'd instantly fix the season and people would be happy again.

But ya. The game isn't fun in it's current state, so please fix it GGG.

Again they seem to be wanting to make a FromSoft game rather than a ARPG

What I meant when I said perfectly balanced was that the game felt good to play, regardless of whether or not people had insane ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ busted assed builds OR off meta builds.

I think breaking an arpg is part of the fun of playing an arpg. I don't understand the mentality that "this build is over performing so let's nerf it into the ground".

I think from the perspective of "is this game fun" - both the people who were using over powered builds AND the people who were using off meta homebrew builds were enjoying the game BEFORE this update came out.

I think NOW it's a unanimous it's not fun anymore from both sides.

If they want to go where the money is, then they should revert the game back to how it was. Otherwise people are just going to quit the game and stop buying mtx.

It's weird how I've got 3 pages of people agreeing with me, and you're the only person calling me bad.

I'm not complaining that the game is too hard. I am complaining about the fact that it takes 20-30 seconds to kill a single white mob at level 10 with good gear.

When you increase the difficulty of a game, the MOST BORING way to do that is to make all the enemies in the game take longer to kill.

Instead, making enemies do more damage and improving enemy ai is a MUCH better way of making the game harder.

I'm complaining that the game became absolutely fu**ing boring.

That doesn't make me a bad player.
agreed, a vast majority of us players are not nolife streamers playin 24/7. Even I have +500 hrs on the 0.1 (played all my hollidays), I say it with total honesty now the game is totally unplayable and not fun. NO FUN AT ALL. I wont play anymore (and will say it everywhere clear and loud) until they fix this. Poe 1 syndrome here we go again!

There is more bad players, and simply doods who copy builds in ARPG games. If they can't find solution on internet they throw rage.
Big Mistake from GGG.

Back before Update 0.2.0 or the dead game is dead.

Update 0.2.0 is time wasting.

Get D4
And craziest part is that we complain about fkin CAMPAIGN xD this ♥♥♥♥ should be challenging, not hard and no, dmg sponge is not hard, its annoying. Noone enjoy fighting trash mob for 20 s. I did a glass cannon minion build but thank god i had a good drop with a lot of spirit so it was smooth but still my clearence speed in CAMPAIGN was not near my colleague that played hunter

Yeah and most of them probably thinks Diablo 4 is to hard. Skill issue. Don't like it? Don't play.

It's NOT a skill issue you shill. Everyone except you apparently is in agreement that the player doesn't do enough damage. You're clearly either extremely BIASED or you're stupid as hell. Either way you're WRONG.

i thought the game was very hard until i hit level like 12 when i decked out one ability level 3 with 2 supports, now its cakewalk. read your abilities its endless, also maybe spend those 10 points into doubling your damage not absorbing dodgeable attacks.

Because people want this game to be something, the Dev's dont' want. You want PoE1 again. They told you again and again, that PoE2 will be different, slower, harder, based on combos, it wasn't suppose to be zoom zoom screen explodes.

If you dislike it, this isn't for you. You will lose your mind when game launches and it will be slower and more hard.
there is nothing wrong with challenge, the issue is the game lacks the tools for it to be smooth progression. souls and no rest of the wicked works because you are able to actually use skill, here its mainly trash gear along with 100s of enemies charging at you while you cant do efficient damage it seems they balanced for endgame with no thought to the campaign. GGG need to figure out what type of game they want to make and not just shove different combat styles together because it isnt hard it just gets frustrating.

Except they didn't do that either. Dark Souls 1-3 and Elden Ring were actually fun despite the challenge.
