PoE 2: Wheres The Loot?

Also good to see they learned nothing from PoE 1 crafting complaints. I like the new skill gem system I think its great that its not tied to gear thats probably the biggest plus, but the passive tree feels limp and theres nothing on it that screams "MUST GET TO MAKE MYSELF A GODLY GOD". I dunno I dont hate it but I dont LOVE it either. If they think anyone is going to do the campaign multiple times they are out of their mind, I figure I have it in me to do it twice unless they speed that shit way the fuck up.

Loot poofing if you die to some crap on the ground when the boss dies is hysterical and stupid, I can make a pile of complaints about dumb stuff like that, and its little things I am sure that will change over the next few months. It isnt grabbing me like PoE does yet though and watching Ben and Alk interact with the higher levels isnt making me rush to get there.

Finally, Fuck them for readding Ultimatum, it was dog shit before and they made it worse.

skill speed is all skills. attacks, spells, warcrys, etc
you can also hold ALT, and hover over the word.

OK so nothing says the word 'skill'. For example my basic attack is just type 'attack'. So does skill speed affect that or no?

if you are using a staff, the staff attack, freezing shards, or what have you, should have no mana cost. yeah, had one of those, would not get off my nuts.

I realized afterword that I completely forgot about the mana flask. So far, I havent needed to use it a single time so it just wasnt even in my head, lol.

Tried like 25 times now on that Titan boss fight in Act 2. Minions cant fucking do anything in that fight. I got SRS to help but fuck it all to hell. They do 1 dmg then die. Useless fucking skeletons. I wonder at what level if any they are viable.

Ill just continue my Mercenary instead.

Welp, there you have it. Rage quit because of the second poem phase of the Act 1 boss. I fucking hate invul phases, and even with a cold sorc trying to kill the adds while dodging at the right time is a pain in the ass.

I will be back, but not all that excited about it.

This game has zero chill lol. Beating a frickin Act 1 mini boss and I fist pump the air and feel like I did something. But at the same time its a little bit exhausting. They drew a hard line in the sand between POE 1 and 2 thats for sure.

I have a feeling this game is going to be PoE 1.1 by the end of it all. LOTS of crybabies already whining about the difficulty, how "exhausting" it is, loot doesn't drop enough, "this isn't PoE 1!", etc.

Bro, if you like PoE 1's gameplay...guess what? You can still play PoE 1! Imagine...

So just got this today and rolled a merc. Having fun and I think the game is great. I can understand how the die hard POE1 nerds would be hating on this though. It is slower and harder and many many hours to get through campaign. But the POE 1 nerds can always go back to POE1, lol.

Had to go to office today and reset the 3D printer with a new job but all that time I was away I was thinking man this sucks, I could be home playing the new shiny.

So far merc seems pretty good. I was watching some streams last night of a few witches playing and merc seems way easier than they had it. This was supposed to be the meme noob trap class but it feels pretty fucing good to me, lol. WASD is not even that bad after like a hour you got that shit down.

I already have a love/hate relationship with it, but you're right. If I dont want to get gud then I can go play POE 1.

And that's the thing that's pissing me off about "the internet" and I know will end in my eventual disappointment.

I guess people just wanted this to be PoE 1 but with better graphics and new skill trees/uniques? That's what new leagues are for.

But instead, people are going to whine like babies until GGG turns this into PoE Remastered. Ugh...

PoE1 has had years of compromised quality because of PoE2. It's fair for fans of both games to think what state either game would be in without the cost of support/development of the other.
