What went wrong with this game?

Oh yeah also a million and one restrictions on every new support they put out so nobody can actually do anything fun with them. And new supports only ever being different flavours of more damage in the first place

powercreep that makes DBZ and YGO look like the most stable progression possible

complete aversion to qol and sucking off d2 to the point of keeping all the dogshit features

fuck off and die
I'm fine with the clearspeed meta honestly, going fast is fun and this game lets you go fast, but endgame is too centered around 1 shot mechanics, server problems, performance problems, and the insane league mechanics (especially this league) only compound the issue, cluster jewels are fucking retarded to
I really hope 2 addresses these issues or Last Epoch matches PoE in terms of build variety and gameplay feel, I really hope they do because im sick of PoE basically having the market cornered for arpgs that dont feel like shit to play
>superior competitors
name them please

>Old league content abandoned except for token efforts
this
Also GGG wants POE to be Touhou with Dark Souls aesthetic without putting any effort in performance

This, I really enjoyed my first season but once I stopped playing became a huge chore to get back into it considering the amount of shit you need to read through just to have a viable build. Not only that but why the fuck is there not an option to auto store currency?? I have the stash tab for it stop making waste time on clicking on each one. That and the fact that trading is a pain without using outside websites and absolutely needing it to get your build working.

every patch just builds more and more endgame, meanwhile the early game is complete shit and your character is completely generic until you have at least 30+ hours invested
the only way to progress your character is to clear levels super fucking fast, and that just isnt fun unless you are autistic
basically they just keep making content for the most hardcore part of their audience
they will never attract any new players
hopefully something will change with 4.0, but i doubt it will

Shit's getting too bloated, powercreep gets worse, old builds become obsolete... Still, PoE is the best diabloid currently, unfortunately.

Should be it for the current generation.

Old PoE had 4 difficulties you dirty newfag.

Clearspeed meta killed the game. You could tell the game was dying when SC faggots were pushing content faster than HC, it was clear that the people who really cared about the game had left.

Trading is a chore

>Pushing harder for zoomzoom meta league after league
everything after breach league was a step in the wrong direction
just kill more shit faster each league, but with a different coat of paint
>Breach:kill a lot of shit really fast, but purple
>Delve: kill a lot of shit really really fast, but black
>Legion: kill a ton of shit really fast, but red
and ofcourse each league needs to have its own crafting system, because no league would be complete without a 4000 word essay on how to make shoes with 3% more move speed than the previous league best

Normal cruel merciless. That's 3

Grim Dawn is the best single player ARPG. I wish going into the higher difficulties didn't feel like such a chore.

Once again, you're just exposing yourself as a newfag. Imagine never playing Ruthless difficulty.

I didn't know you were talking about the neolithic age when you said old poe. My bad.

all of my hope is on lost epoch now god that game better be fucking good, grim dawn can go fuck itself

>99% of loot that drops is garbage
honestly it's so close to 100% to be painful. If you clear a 4-5 orbed red map and hit alt there's a damn good chance it'll crash your game with the amount of literally useless shit that's dropped.

I am pretty okay with Breach/Delve, since aren't purely clear speed focused. It's stuff with the built in timer that is straight punishing you for not being a clearspeed meta monster is fucking annoying and seems to be the trend.

Breach had a built in timer in that you couldn't get many splinters if you didn't clear fast, and when you ran the things where you combined splinters you just had a literal timer that failed if you took too long.

Honestly the frustrating part of breaches in maps isn't that you have to clear fast it's that there's not enough shit to clear - breaches would constantly be in shit locations where there just couldn't be that many enemies, or in good locations where inexplicably few would appear. I don't think I'd ever felt limited by my clear speed dealing with breaches.

And breachstones were supposed to be the end game of it, I'd say it's okay to have a bit of it that requires some level of clear speed in your build.
