Early Access Review
Extremely slow updates, I can just tell this game isn't getting to 1.0 in the time they announced. So far we've had minor balance patches or straight up nerfs. I mean GGG seems more inclined to show off bosses fighting each-other and a measly TWO new uniques WOW! We're literally 4 months in with practically nothing and 0.2.0 looks to be a nothing-burger too.

The game is just boring, there's like 3 insanely OP builds currently that turn the game into creative mode, anything else is just not fun to play in comparison. I really don't know why they didn't just delay this game for a year to cook with POE 1 they've essentially alienated both player-bases trying to manage both games and failing horribly.

-Trials are by far the most boring mechanic I've ever witnessed in an ARPG, literal slogs to get through, not due to difficulty but due to how much they slow the pacing of the game.

-Half of the stats on gear are borderline useless like armor for example the reduction in damage taken is terrible.

-Crafting is non existent everything is just gambling and hoping you get good rolls unless you're giga rich and can afford omens which have been inflated to hell due to the economy.

-Towers shouldn't exist, the fact they're turning them into normal maps despite the community's dismay is hilarious.

-The economy is absolutely nuked making it insanely hard if you're starting off to acquire your build, I wouldn't be surprised if half of the player-base secretly buys divines (RMT) online, as of writing this 1 divine is 700 exalted orbs which is ridiculous.

-98% of the uniques are straight unusable garbage removing all excitement from obtaining them, the few uniques that are worth getting are extremely hard to obtain with very low drop rates compared to others.
