Should we give POE1 a go? If we hit 1k likes i'll dive into it on stream @ twitch.tv/kanonxo

@dIggl3r 3 месяца назад

1k likes won't happen for several weeks at this rate... I would watch you play NOW ofc! 😄

@CCSplinters 3 месяца назад

Do it now and get yourself a bittersweet experience. The game is more than a decade old but really holds up. There's a reason why even PoE1 is always pitted against D4 and other new ARPGs despite the age.

@GankoInitiative 3 месяца назад

@greenfoxx1820 3 месяца назад

POE1 is good. But if ya starting out new ... it will be overkill how much stuff there's to do. I personally quit cause i couldn't decide what i actually wanted to do + it was a bit to spammy skillwise. POE2 looks better atm, but hopefully endgame wont result in massive spam again.

@YOUTUBE_CHRIS 3 месяца назад

I saw the D4 "expansion" trailer... Took the money I would've spent on that, and all the money I would've spent on cosmetics for a Paladin/Crusader class, and bought $160.00 worth of mtx's in POE, because it transfers over to POE2. So thank you Blizzard, for helping me support a developer that actually cares about it's customers and not the loans from Blackrock.

@scottcampbell9456 3 месяца назад

@daaaavidz 3 месяца назад

If anything, the gameplay appears to be too fast since many skills are still haven't been balanced properly yet and are dealing too much damage, so it's too easy to stagger bosses when playing coop. I already noticed from this playthrough that GGG added some invulnerability phases to bosses so they wouldn't die too quickly, but hopefully that's just some "band-aid soluution" for that playtest before they can finish balancing how much damage players are dealing.

@CCSplinters 3 месяца назад

It'll be hard but he already knows how PoE2 feels to play. Now, he probably should do poe1, for added knowledge of poe's lore, mechanics, technicalities, skill tree, leagues, and whatever the hell poe1 offers 😂

@arcc4 3 месяца назад

New players have to be told that because PoE has had a massive amount of content added over a decade that was made mostly for current players to discover and solve its not designed to explain stuff. They have to go in with the expectation of a long learning curve that requires external websites, guides, and other resources. Similar to how no one would expect to do well going blind into a high fidelity 747 simulator and trying to land.

@ClintK. 3 месяца назад

I can't wait for this. Blizzard is like the hot girlfriend you were dating. They moved away and came back as Trans and you're still trying to convince yourself that she's the old hot girlfriend she use to be.

@CCSplinters 3 месяца назад

Some people don't like the slow gameplay but Slower doesn't mean it's not doing the same objective. As stated in some interviews, it looks slowed down due to polished animations so now: - Instead of attacking+stutter steps, you can attack while moving. - 200 projectiles can now be 20 and with proper scaling, it will reach the same goal. - almost all attacks have movements so all wind up attacks in poe 1 can be overridden by absurd attackspeed so you can move again while poe2 makes up for you winding up and moving at the same time. What you see is an early game experience and no optimized stats yet where people break the game again to feel close to poe1. It'll be not as fast but game feels and visual clarity should be better than zooming in poe1.

@JakeNKlappy 3 месяца назад

Honestly the zooming in path of exile 1 is so unfun. Especially when trying to play co-op and two people end up moving at two different speeds, and it destroys the experience unless you have complimentary crafted builds for each other.

@CCSplinters 3 месяца назад

@@JakeNKlappy you mean zooming in poe2 couch coop. You can still play co-op with different systems and would not lock you on the screen. It's better to lock both players in the screen than removing half of your screen just so you can leave behind your party.

@brian9801 2 месяца назад

I'm so happy that the game won't be like POE1's screen vomit... Literally impossible to watch a streamer play end game because half the time their map is up or full time, and there's just screen vomit... Impossible to tell what's going on, and not fun to watch if they're zooming through all mobs, insta-clicking their passive tree skills (I have to stop a VOD and rewind it to see what passive skill they've chosen), etc...

@capsjackson 3 месяца назад

Heck yeah, excited that people are starting to get some hands on with PoE2

@pawelkapica5363 3 месяца назад

They confirmed the endgame will be a lot faster. Not a scrazy as POE1 and definitely without the visual clutter. Lets hope so. What Jonathan stated in an interview, is that they want you to feel like you earned the power you will get in endgame, by deliberatly slowing down early game. And I think that is a great I dea. I love fast builds and blasting, but the visual clutter paired with the graphics always turned me off of POE1. I think POE2 will be great though. Can't wait.

@PhilippeWoodruff 2 месяца назад

@Kanon i miss raiding and dungeons like in lost ark in poe. Do you think it's possible this game could evolve into some sort of an mmo?

@Akrymir 3 месяца назад

I'd prefer it stay closer to this speed, as it'd force the design direction to make gameplay more deliberate, requiring players to pay more attention to the moment to moment gameplay... as opposed to the spam rush to kill tons of mindless enemies that pretty much every other APRG devolved into.

Love the moment to moment gameplay.. boss fight are amazing... abilities are way more impactful, much more tactical and engaging gameplay than other ARPGs My main concern is how they will manage to keep it like this while satisfying the power increase fantasy that most ARPG players want... most games like this turn into a shitshow of crazy damage while everything on the screen just explodes.. really difficult to do imo... will be an epic game if they manage to pull it off.
