he5078: I cant believe all it took was for ziz to yell at Jonathan and Mark for 2 hours

Linarian: Props to Jonathan at handling the interview well admitting in the end that he was a bit malding. Just shows how passionate he is with his 'vision' of the game. God knows what kind of pressure they were having especially in social media and reddit especially is ruthless.

roccoheat8662: Thank you Jonathon for doing soo many interviews and listening, no matter how stressful or uncomfortable it may be.

I appreciate and love the compassion for the game. I know that you play it at home, even outside of work. It is impossible for gameplay style to cover all possibilities, but you try to force yourself against the norm to test things.

ToowimPL: I wasn’t exactly your "fan" (no specific reason), but yesterday i was impressed by how maturely you approached the situation. Thanks Ziz, and of course, props to Mark and Jonathan as well — that wasn’t an easy interview.

Fuzzy4650: Mad respect for Jonathan and Mark for doing that interview. These devs are awesome

HybridToxic: Can you please make interview with them at least once per week? ;) it would speed up the game developement for sure!

KaitoverMoon: Crazy that we have devs that actually listen. This sentiment is often said hyperbolically in the industry but I don't think I've ever seen anyone be as honest and transparent as GGG has been. It really helps that they are just gamers like us that play their own game on a regular basis.

KieranPerez-i4p: GREAT! Thank you Ziz!

dreamercross: This came about because you were professional in the interview and the devs are passionate about their game. Thank you

the151muckle: This is the type of communication we need. Even speculative stuff in here. Hearing their thoughts on if maybe something might need done helps soften the blow as well.

bruce_leon1044: It's WILD to me how fast they can fix/change things in this game. Other games I play take weeks and/or months to fix issues and/or player concerns

TigerTFT: BIG W for Rares always being shown

Scorptice: Now we need an interview with Ghazzy to get Minions back xD

DustinHarms: This is why I refuse to jump on the inevitable bandwagon that comes (and will come) after every EA patch until release. GGG will

adithyakalapatapu2976: The new gem is not being deployed with increased dmg per charge. They included an update to the patch notes just now. Something about not being able to work that part in before they were planning on adding it to the game

Vesataeuc: I don't think the reaction speed from GGG on this was appreciated enough! Don't forget you are playing a beta not the full game! We are testing it so they can make it great for us!

yournamethere123: Matlan waterway change is so fucking goated. that zone is ass.

McMarc_1993: The interview the multiple fast changes after the patch restored my faith. They listen and act.

*Inhales small dosis of hopium*

Sandlchi: So now we are in the "dont worry babe, I will be better" phase.

Heres to hope.

JayBigDadyCy: This community is an emotional roller coaster

Paradigm_King: Nice start, meanwhile minions still die if given a stern look.....

DjZledGe2: more sockets and attribute runes will make the early game so much smoother! W

Ad0rak: The most important thing here (in combination with the interview) is hope. Some people in the community (myself included) had a strong tendency to believe that, how the game was is actually want the want. Brutally difficult and were much not meant for people who are bad (like me).

For reference, I'm 50 hours in (and 71 deaths) and currently in A1 cruel and it's really really hard (Lich with ED and Contagion) ... I have some amount of knowledge having over 3k hours in PoE1 - but I'm also slow there ... A10 Kitava is impossible for me under 15h and that is already my highly optimized time ... used to be well over 30h ... I've also never even seen Ubers (or done T17) I'm not "blasting" because I'm just slow and bad but that should be allowed...

So S1 of PoE2 it took me almost 80h to finish the campaign... so yes, there are people who are just bad and really really struggle. So any improvement is really welcome for people like me ... even if it's just me :)

LamzaksLV: well pure minion build still not playable wo frustration

AdskyDimon: >nerf everything into the ground, the game is unplayable

>buff a couple mechanics and give maphack instead of proper completion mechanic

>everyone shitting their pants from joy

I hate this so much

chunghoang106: Ziz is a cat?

tennooperator8182: GGG needs to realize we want not only them to do well but the game as well. Hopefully this puts them back on track.
