The "casual" gamer tears are gonna ruin this game in a long run

[Random009]

Not gonna pretend there's no issues, there is, but what the hell.

Elites, bosses , even base monsters are getting toned down because ppls still don't know how to press Space ?

Some "nerfs" where a bit too much yea, but now they reverting changes randomly back cuz community can't cope theres no 1 button kill everything builds on maxroll they can just copy?

And I get stance "easy games = more players" but it's actually WRONG! , games that provide 0 challenge = bore fest and just a grind to get some gear = game will die fast.

First 0.1 version proved when you clear content with 0 effort no one even wanna play that after few weeks.

This looks bad honestly , don't think GGG is taking right directions if you they gonna fold under every little criticism there is.

And no it won't make game fun for more ppls, it will just make it boring "another" arpg out there.

Casual != easy

[Poyzo]

Casuals will leave as soon as another easy game comes out. They're also not buying MXT like hardcore players.

casuals don't care we play we consume we move on

Noone asks to make this game easier. Ppl ask to make this game playable for casual players. It doesn't mean easy at all. It means that I can play for example 1 hour a day and have progress in game. Progress means progress and not kill all availiable content in 1 hour. But I had played 200 hours in 0.1 patch and got almost no progress in items. I managed to get 93 lvl and closed 82 lvl maps but I got in fact ZERO good items. You can ask me why I didn't trade. There is 1 main reasons:
Trading for casual player is impossible because it is made for ppl who stay online in game for long period of time and casual players enter the game do 1-2 maps and quit.
If there was an AH casual players could play this game too, even in such braindead system of framing items.

Buy another $80 skin... it will make you feel better and really show those filthy casuals who is boss.

They should take a page from FromSoftware’s playbook — release the game as intended, and if you don’t like it? Tough luck, deal with it.

Ironically, all these flip-flop changes — hard, easy, hard, easy — will do more damage to the player base than simply sticking to a stable path and clear vision.

It was meant to be a hard, long game. Don’t like it? Oh well.

Elden Ring was the worst game to ever release for the gaming industry. Now clowns are trying to make every game Elden Ring even though it doesn't fit inside other genres like ARPG's

I also find it frustrating that casual players who don't care about the game's future are trying to influence its direction. However, after taking more time to reflect, we must remember that this game is still in early access, and many aspects are subject to change until the 1.0 release and beyond. Despite this, I'm still optimistic that the game will evolve in the right direction and become even better than it is now.

On a side note, I had a lot of fun when the game first released, and I'm having even more fun now playing as a mace warrior. This game is truly exceptional, and I'm confident I'll be enjoying this masterpiece for ten years or more. Cheers!

It's not "casuals" ruining the game. It's the devs missing WHY people are having issues in the first place and nerfing/changing the completely wrong thing.

fromsoft has made post launch changes to every single game they've released.

it's not casuals who dislike the current state of the game, but PoE 1 "zoomer" veterans.

Yep. They say stuff either out of ignorance or hope no "casuals" know the truth because they apparently can't play souls games. Fromsoft can do no wrong so they blatantly ignore what they did or make excuses for them.

As he said, its mostly the POE 1 old guard casuals complaining cos the game isn't the same as their game. You realise POE1 is a casual game right?
