Imagine thinking this sort of stuff will not be in PoE2.
Path of Exile 2's development is fueled purely out of spite and hatred of what PoE1 has become, and it required developing a whole separate game to address these problems. That's the reason they split them instead of doing the whole two campaigns one shared endgame concept. I highly doubt PoE2 will have these issues anytime soon, unless GGG doesn't have the fortitude to tell the zoom zoomers to stay in their fucking containment game.

^Nice fanfic :lol:
I'll just copy this from another thread cause it fits like a glove
The focus on coop was clearly a crutch to use "fun with friends" to attempt to hide the uninspired game at its core. American Kiwi game industry is so hopeless now they can't even match a mindless mid budget action game from 2011 2013

Because it is a zoom zoom game now and boring. Having "great defenses" means having better/faster offense than your enemy and you are supposed to clear maps in 2 minutes while playing flask piano or you are playing wrong.

It is nothing like the PoE I started playing and felt in love with.
PoE2 does seem to be similar to that. Whole game will be slower because even normal enemies can kill you fast no matter your build so drops and whole game will be adjusted for that. PoE1 was adjusted for clearing maps in 2 minutes.
Can you show me on the doll where the bad people forced you to "clear maps in 2 minutes"? Go play Ruthless, because that is literally the PoE experience you want.
Also, flask piano? You know we've had flask enchantments for 3 years now, right? The only flask I press is the life flask and that's less than once per map on average.
Ruthless is still nothing like release PoE, it is some bastard child that nobody wants.

As for 2 minutes, whole design is forcing me. Almost all extra content is time or area gated or you get shit. You either kill fast or you die or get no rewards.

As for flasks, fuck that "automation". To automate 5 flasks it at least 10c per flask cost, requires trading and something you will be doing after 30-40 h of playing. It might not exist as well by that time.

It takes you 30 hours to finish the campaign? I think I'm seeing the problem now.

Imagine taking damage.

:lol: What extra content is time gated? Expedition? Blight? Harvest? Harbingers? Ultimatum? Heist? Delirium and Alva are the only ones that have timers, and those have atlas passives to make it easier or disable it. I guess research in betrayal too. So don't run it?
This is 100% a you problem.

I am the one who's butthurt, not the person who's been whining about the game for the last few pages.
