Siris6771: Let's be honest, it's not hitting that 12 month goal

RMartian76: I enjoyed 160 hours of PoE 2. It is well worth the money. But the game has a long, long, looong way to go for me to come back. I'll just wait for full release to check it out again.

brianhart5317: The crafting system in its current state in POE2 is the number 1 reason I am currently taking a hiatus until there is new content. Your analysis is spot on.

NWOslave: uniques so unique they are unusable

BuzzaB77: POE2 doesn't have crafting yet, it has identifying in multiple steps.

Retsgonewild: I will come back when endgame is not

Clear 50 maps with very little modifiers to buff 4 towers and then to do 5-10 actual good maps

Does not seem a good waste of my time, I at least want to be having fun wasting my time.

bplup6419: As someone who doesn't trade, the loot is complete buns

lockepersonal: Ah yes, increased attack speed and a chance to get "turn loot into gold" shrine buff. Brilliant.

Brownboy42069: Does anyone else remember when they said they introduced greater zoom-out on the Atlas? Pepperidge Farm remembers

alexdicicco5230: Whats their fetish for reduce attack speed for mace holy shit

DBaronVonV: The Bringer of Rain was one of the strongest unique helms to come out in PoE 1 before it got nerfed. It's also a tribute to Andy Whitfield who sadly passed away while playing Spartacus in the 2010 series filmed in New Zealand.

ronankelley7768: I might just give up if they decide that the power ceiling is too high with the attribute stackers. I don't want to play an arpg that doesn't let me become op if I grind. I really hope they raise the other strats instead.

williamgriffith6818: Until armor actually works, that new stuff will suck… unless you don’t have an actual warrior build and went magic warrior, etc

Randomonium66: After level 60, I've never had a good item I'd actually use drop

almost10000: I enjoy the gameplay but its too much of an economy Simulator right now

alexsurh1472: Don't nerf the heralds, just give us more options for screenwide clears

Monkeypuzzle: Meanwhile I stopped playing once I got my main character to end game because the death penalties were too harsh at the same time as a giant leap in difficulty.

xzarielx1: Game Is gonna end up killing itself with the shitty drops, insaneee rng and limited options for uniques and gear and such, most ppl also won’t enjoy playing for hours on end and then it going to standard where nobody will really play. Getting stuck at like lvl 90 because the xp loss from maps is actually insane, like it wasn’t bad enough you already lose the map and ally chance of gaining good drops from the map and having to reattempt.

Pharland: Honestly the most fun I have with PoE2 is repeating the campaign as other classes, so I might wait for the full release (however long that may be) before I come back to PoE2.

The endgame also feels like it's for people who are willing to dedicate a lot of time to the game and I prefer to hop around multiple games so, in it's current state, it's clearly not for me.

matthewmcconaublaze7008: We deserve an explanation about Chris leaving. I'm astounded they haven't said a single word. Really makes me wonder what's going on behind the scenes.

JoeSloth23: Mirror just dropped! Too bad you had that mace equipped and it had the shrine that turns all items to gold...and you never even knew you got screwed.

shootstraight91: a bonus to crafting for SSF would be cool.

alekseinovoselov319: Optimization of drop fps from 60 to 10 on bosses the most desired update for me

WallySketch: I really hope build diversity will get better. More than half of the skill gems are just not viable at all. We have some weapon skills with attack speed debuff and less damage than the regular attack, or spells that deal next to no damage coupled with very poor scaling options.

Some skills are so bad that you can't even reach endgame while using them while others are so strong you can literally clear all content with minimal gear.

borisvanjava9569: its almost like they telling us:

"ohh you want crafting ? you can play PoE1"

"ohh you want to zoomin through the map ? you can play PoE1"

bruhhh this devs man..

AxelordSMIJES: We desperately need a SEARCH feature on the atlas. The sheer amount of time I have spent moving the cursor around looking for XYZ map because I can't remember where it is and it resets your cursor position when you close out of it is absurd. Still enjoying the game for the most part, but definitely have my complaints. Experience penalty is FAR too harsh after level 90 compared to how much the difficulty scales up and the fact the you can be running fully juiced t15 maps and only get between 1-4% xp IF that. Losing 10% on death when it is so easy to die to BS one shot mechanics that you can't even see due to the very real lack of visual clarity is absurdly frustrating. I'm level 94 and got my XP bar up to like 45% only to have it completely drained due to dying a few times in quick succession to some situations that I think most people would agree were pretty cheap and mostly not due to a lack of skill. I understand that RNG is a big part of the game, but when it feels like you're getting needlessly punished, and overly harshly so, when you are doing pretty much everything you can be correctly just feels....bad.
