Lukeor: Full time working dad here, i'm like 80 hours in and getting in every minute I can when i'm free. I feel like i'm 18 years old and diablo 2 just came out and i'm looking at skill trees, checking over corner of every map, getting "ah-ha" moments left and right with the character development. I love it.
samenoise532: 2 am... 1 more map
TalkativeTri: I'm back into casual mode but I went HARD THERE for a few weeks. Game is great.
Hat.Wearer: The ranger is so broken i actually started learning archery. lol
AR-fh4qu: the more you learn... the more you want to play. it feels wrong lol. never played poe before
PherPhur: Excited for this channel to turn into a POE2 channel for the year
enzoDVL: I'm only at 75hrs - haven't even hit endgame with my main - but it's extremely clear to me already that this game is a marathon not a sprint. I think the Diablo 2 comparisons are truly apt - this is going to be my go to "comfort" game for quite possibly the next 25 years, much in the way that masterpiece was.
DwwwD: My biggest complaint is the random 1 shots that occur, like it just drains the fun
I got a Witch, lvl 85 or something, max resistances, like 45-50% armour and sometimes I just explode from nothing, cant even tell what killed me
thecowboyfromcali: They should definitely make the trade market just an extra UI like currency exchange. You find the gear you want, people with premium tabs list the items, you buy instantly for a small gold fee. And it takes the player interaction out, so if someone is offline, or if someone is AFK or in the middle of content they can't leave, it doesn't effect the purchase.
Adding a search and find feature like the website, to a UI in-game would also help promote people to use it, as currently it feels hidden or like it isn't worth learning right away for new players.
NokturnalMTG: I've been doing dad pace, so it's been enjoyable going through the campaign. I miss the Settlers town, I hope they have something like that for POE2
N3vangel: The 4AM psychopath line hit way too close to home.
KrucielBL: If you get stuck in the boss arena, just log out to character select. You log back into your hideout and upon re-entry you spawn at the last place your placed a portal, or just the original entrance if you never portaled out. It still sucks, but you don't need to invite a friend to TP to them.
destinsather9757: I haven’t been addicted to a game like this since Elden Ring
nyanko2077: 180 hours in and stopped playing. Cause man, endgame is so boring in this state
jaysoniorg2950: I really think it's a great game, but now that I'm into the end game, I'm quite disappointed that it's identical to every other ARPG in the sense that you're just zooming around, clicking, and watching everything explode effortlessly. I actually had a blast in the campaign, as a warrior, because it felt like an actual gamer's game, where reflexive decision making is king, and the combat was insanely fun. But all of that great combat completely disappears by the time you're mapping, and the game feels identical to every other ARPG, including PoE1, which I didn't like at all because it requires nothing more than enough time to grind and a functional index finger for mouse clicking.
KasKade7: The main reason people will not respond back to you when trading. Multiple people buying the same item. New listings, especially when it's a good deals. Get bought within a minute or two. The sad thing is that it will not even be used, but it will be flipped to a higher price. That's why people always tell you: if you get more then 1 buyer, set your price higher! Also in this case the seller will not respond to you. Yes, this trade system is not the best. Alot people just playing the market, including currency sellers for real money. They will use every method, including bots en scripts. Chances you will be the first guy to make a good deal is very slim on the trade site.
silentd_6: I have about 280 hours for PoE1 only really playing 1 season. I have 195 hours already in PoE2 with no signs of slowing down. Im hooked
sinnshii3285: Leveling up and putting a skill point in is a massive dopamine hit for me
marshinz5696: I squeeze a Map in every morning before I leave for work.
deaglerk: @Force Gaming Don't know if you know about this item: Omen of Amelioration is an Omen item. When consumed, it reduces the amount of experience lost on death by 75%. Can buy it from currency exchange or by chance as a reward in Rituals.
bkozak24: Endgame is nearly unplayable on console without a loot filter… I spend more time squinting my eyes to look for good items/currency than I do clearing mobs.
IronBear47: It ruined my life… literally. I work from home as an accountant and own my own firm. Yeah… i have not worked in weeks. Trying to figure out how to explain to clients that I am not going to be getting their numbers to them anytime soon.
joestmann1: After a long session, if I close my eyes all I see is a yellow boss health bar. It's interesting
rebeltheharem7028: Main things:
1. Remove rarity from gear, or give it an actual downside, like X% less damage dealt/more damage taken for the suffix/affix version. Or nerf the values to the point you would barely consider getting it over just having another useful affix. Right now, its basically a required stat.
2. End game mapping is pretty RNG right now. It's too RNG for my taste, and makes it harder to "do content you actually want to do".
3. Having only 1 portal to do bosses feels pretty bad. At least give us 3 tries. You can't really get good at a boss fight if you can only do it once every 100 maps (I mean the pinnacle bosses). This just invites only doing them with builds that can one shot bosses, like POE1. Not really sure if this is a good thing, but if that's the direction GGG wants to go, then well, that's a terrible idea.
Games4Kickz: Maybe I'm just unlucky, but I can't even keep my waystones up on the required level. Specced into all the increased drop rates and extra monster packs passives and have just over 100% increased rarity.
Running a T10 map with 400% waystone drop rate, drops 2-3x T1 to T3 waystones in a T10 map from the breach and other random monsters and maybe 1x T9 or T10 from the boss, thats it. Clearing the map to 0 monsters left does not add anymore T9 or T10. Most are T1/T2/T3.
We need a 100% guaranteed waystone drop on any map, including towers, of the same value waystone I used.
Even with 0 rarity I should not be getting T1 waystones in a T10 map.
thomaswade9381: Towers are pretty much used to boost the maps around the tower. So you can find a map surrounded by towers and each tower can boost the map so you can create a very juicy maps around it.
