Obviously not played much yet. Though i fear twitchiness is gonna to be much greater than in 1. Also i can’t play for shit in every class except sorcerer, with warrior and monk i can’t even kill fucking Miller lol (first intorductory boss).

    Unfortunately both ingame chat and forums/reddit are full of absolute worst scum of cuckpit worth g*mer gatekeeping scum telling you to git gud. I tried for 2 hours now to get any help for the wolf count boss and guess what, i got insulted more times than in all other hack & slash games ever and ofc nobody helped.

    And i’m 100% sure what will happen later, all those scum will start whining and crying that people play only meta builds and devs need to nerf them.

    If you become surrounded, you are trapped and die. You can’t move through enemies at all, Normal monsters take 5-6 hits to kill.

    This is precisely the problem with that boss. All others can be killed at range but this one has a phase where it locks you in tiny space with tons of mobs and pounce on you from outside visibility ever 5 seconds of so for insane damage.

    Also there is no promised trade, at least not yet, i just wasted entire saturday playing it, got to the same boss on two different classes and got stopped at the same place every time. Now i’m frustrated as fuck and i literally never felt so cheated after buying a game.

      Unfortunately both ingame chat and forums/reddit

      You can change your in-game chat channel. You type “/global #” into the chat but replace # with a number. I like channel 4040, which is a channel for achievement completion, but it always has the same group of people in there and there is friendly chatter. Channel 5055 is the designated reddit channel.

        Thanks, i will check this. Also PoE community IS really somethign else. I watched maybe 5 or 6 videos on Youtube and today my new feed is half full of typical nazi propaganda youtubers, which never happened after watching even a lot of videos for Last Epoch, Diablo 4 or Grim Dawn.

          my new feed is half full of typical nazi propaganda youtubers

          Here’s a list of channels to avoid for political reasons.

          spoiler

          Asmongold - Toxic wow player turned right winger political commentator. “antiwoke” misogynist. not even a poe player, he only plays poe as a side game. if you click his poe videos, you will get right wing videos in your feed.

          Quin69 - dumb guy. stupid politics. joe rogan type. nickmercs type.

          cutedog_ - libertarian of the age of consent type. shows weird sexualized anime on stream. says his favorite author is Ayn Rand. probably watches Destiny.

          Belton - ex-military canadian chud. got banned 2 months ago for doxxing his twitch mod team

          PathOfMath - Very toxic guy. Permanently banned for making death threats again game devs.

          Here’s a list of channels that have good info. I copied this list and labeled some channels I recognize. As a rule of thumb, avoid channels with robot/ai voices.

            I don’t watch her stream so I don’t know if she’s OK now, but the DS in DS Lily used to be RWDS for right wing death squad. Just putting that out there.
