Is anyone else having fun like me?

Yes, currently about to beat Bellwright and on Teir 9 of Satisfactory, thinking about startign up Farm Sim 25 also since have not played it since release. Lots of extra time on my hand snow I am not playing PoE2 currently.

Yes, otherwise I wouldn't be playing, then again I haven't enjoyed poe1 in a long time.

Let's see if history repeats itself and GGG starts caving in to the whiners and eventually turn poe2 into what poe1 has become.

i got an inside of the vision while killing act 2 boss with 400 dps and 0 resistance simple because nothing drops that could give me any upgrade. took around 15 minutes kiting him and waiting for mana to refill. ofc none of the blue drops could be used as an upgrade. this whole "feel great killing overpowered while being a peasant" bs doesn't work for me somehow. it was just a terrible slog and i not gonna repeat it. so yea i have alot of fun!

Enjoying the endgame. But loot seems heavily nerfed. Had a boss drop zero items and zero gold.

I am liking a lot the game, just a pity I am having little time to play every day. PLayign huntress and loving the need of being somewhat tactical on my approaches.

Yes the game needs some improvements, some balance changes, some monster slow down, but I am still having more fun that I ever had on ANY ARPG, even comparable to my first D2 playtrough. I am playing carefully doing a self imposed HC SSF game. Not playing on the separate server because I know some friend might ask for help at some point and I want to be able to help.

The game is shaping in the form I always dreamed... and I am patient because I know that this is trully EA in the rawest form of the word.. a true beta access.

This game is an actual think process for me now vs "Just get a great weapon and headbutt the enemy" of pre patch.

All I think this game needs is some way to risk adding item rarity stat on gear, 1-2 skill more skill slots (or more avenues of jewels/gears to get that) and more skill points and passion towards weapon swaps and I think this game is pure fire.

Challenging gameplay that actually makes use of content instead of zooming through it all like Amazon's mmo New World or some other unloved mainstream game.

I am loving the new patch.

Leveling huntress currently and it feels as good as when I was playing warrior at the start of poe2.

There are a lot of things that need improving, but in general this is the pace I thought the game would be and why I was excited for it. For the record the last other ARPG I've played is D2.

The one gripe I have with both this and D2 is that the last 8 levels seem to be for the top 0.000001% of people who actually don't even care for them, where as I would appreciate having a few extra points to play around in the tree and really make everyone's builds that much more unique.

Yes it's definitely fun. If the challenge was set in stone, I'd really dig in and grind. But I expect the challenge will be nerfed, so I'm not grinding as hard. I do look forward to GGG improving POE2. It's going to be epic once polished.

I am. I'm playing SSF with my own build, going slow and not thinking about FOMO or stupid trade addons or having to load up the web site to search for better gear. I'll see how far I can get before frustration sets in, at which point I'll do something else with my free time. The amount of people who continue to play whilst continually complaining is baffling. If you're not enjoying the game, leave constructive feedback and do something else.

Initially, no.

But after some of the recent changes the game actually feels playable again, actually having some fun playing contagion + essence drain after the absolute horrendous state it was in on first EA release.
