Path of Exile 2 does not have to be Path of Exile 1.

I agree as long as they fucking update poe1

Hmm, I've been playing since the Delve league, iirc.
Anyway, since Bex left, the communication with the community hasn't been the same. That said, the PoE community has also been... not easy to work with, let's say, so I do understand to an extent.
Don't get me wrong—they've been very transparent about changes, patch notes, etc. But it's been more one-directional.
Well, that's just my impression anyway. It might just be different from yours.

And i have been playing since the game had only 3 acts, and the only thing people farmed was act 3 Dominus and Piety, so i know exactly the amount of work and content GGG has produced over the years with significant changes every single 3-4 month league in a pace u dont see any other arpg game developer even come close to compete with. Soo many of these changes and Qol features have been based on community feedback.
To be honest i dont need constant replies and posts on every single little issue cause i know everything will be covered when the next patch notes are released as long as people provide the necessary feedback, i just think people expect too much too fast and have very little patience, I dont mind if it takes another year before things finally works as intended cause games like this are not easy to balance, but it makes it a lot easier when u have like 200k players testing and discovering the bugs, flaws, balance and Qol issues.
Poe 1 started the same way, there was not much content and the itemization and balancing has changed a lot since the early days + the endgame is like insane lvls of improvement and extra content in comparison to where it began.

So this is basically why im fully confident that they will eventually get the job done at some point in the near future cause they have already proven over the years that they can do much better than what we expect. But in the end u cant satisfy everyone since people have different opinions on how they think the game should be which is fine and there are other games which might be more to their liking

POE2 being slow isn't the problem. The problem is that ONLY the player is slow, everything else is cracked up on caffeine. And the player isn't just slow, the player is excruciatingly slow, and MS is hard to find on boots.
No Rest for the Wicked is an example of a slow game done right. The player AND the enemies are around the same slowish speed, and there's never more than 3 or 4 at a time harassing the player (at least not that I've seen) So the player can actually have this "slow and deliberate" combat that GGG champions and some players champion but certainly does not exist in POE2.
But right now? This ain't it. This ain't it all. The game is pure punishment, and I know punishment, I played Everquest for years. POE2 is worse. Everything is stacked against the player, and the player does't get enough loot and crafting currency to even the odds. (At least I didn't, and I checked the vendor when I could, gambled, and sold stuff for more currency) It just isn't enough to be viable, and the current player numbers support that.
POE2 doesn't need to be POE1, but POE2 has stolen POE1 Mobs, mechanics, skills, etc... The only thing it didn't steal was a decent crafting system, and decent movement options.

I can agree to some of these issues and movement speed IS too limited in my opinion, however some builds ARE playable atm and every class have a setup/skills that can carry u through the campaign without too many issues. The problem is not everything is properly balanced and some skills are not viable for leveling at all or require specific gear to scale properly and some are straight up unplayable. Many of these issues will probably be solved at some point as long as people provide the feedback needed.
I do think they have to balance the mobs at some point to match the pace of the game cause it does feel like im the one playing poe 2 while the mobs play poe 1, however my biggest issue is the size of areas/maps doesnt seem to fit the slow pace which adds to the sluggish feeling. Another issue i have is the time based mechanics like Breach, Delirium etc. which contradicts the vision of a slower and more methodical combat style, everyone knows that mechanics like this only favours one playstyle (Omegafast 1 button, full screen clear build) and people get pigeonholed into a specific meta just like they did in poe 1, the 50%+ lightning spear ladder kind of proves my point here. These mechanics does not belong in poe 2 in their current state and will have to be reworked if they should stay
Like i said earlier im not too concerned atm cause i am pretty sure they will eventually figure things out like they have done in the past

poe 2 cant be poe 1 because poe 1 is way better.. . for all i care they can shut down poe 2 as its the worst game ive ever played.. personally. .


but i want visual update to poe 1 .
