    I love how when GGG does a Q&A it feels raw and real, like it's gamers speaking to other gamers, not some corporate entity.

    • @Lightgrenadez7777
      @Lightgrenadez7777 Před 8 měsíci +8

      It's because they are gamers just talking to gamers.
      Best example to contrast it against is D4s developer chats. Blizz are in damage control. Everything they are saying is either justifying a decision. Or justifying why they can't/won't put something in or out of the game.
      Everything is a carefully monitored, rehearsed answer. Because they are already on the back foot. And they can't make another mistep.
      This Exilecon Q and A is someone being asked a genuine question. And someone giving a genuine answer to that question directly.
      Because they want the players to be informed based off the answer.
      Not trying to hide something bad or make something seem better than what it is. With rehearsed marketing speak.
      Let me give an example..
      Q: Why did you implement system X
      GGG: we implemented system x. Because we found when We did option A, then B happened. But if we did option C. Then D happened. And we think that D is better for player experience.
      BLIZZ: Here at blizzard we have over 400000 people designing diablo 4. It's the most immersive player experience. We have more dungeons than any other diablo title.
      Or.
      Yeah we are working on it. Not much we can do about it right now. You'll have to wait.
      1 response answer the question, the other response deflects and distracts you with something else.
      As long as GGG doesn't do something blizzard level of stupid like fucking up stash tabs. They are going to have one of the most successful game launches ever with poe 2.

    At 19:00 when they start talking about should we have to redo the campaign for every character, why not reach a compromise and just let way points carry forward from your first character. Seems like a easy win, we still do the campaign just an hour or two faster or maybe certain waypoints carry foward?

    • @danielbr93
      @danielbr93 Před 8 měsíci +3

      Tbh, this will make people quit faster is my guess.
      If you can just teleport from waypoint to waypoint, you are then extremely underleveled, die many many times, but not because of an interesting boss fight, but probably because you didn't get enough currency to craft your items, get res capped and any monster will nuke you off of Wraeclast.
      Imo, the game is called "Path of Exile". The path starts at level 1 on the beach. Now it's up to you.

    - Regeneration and oneshots, bringing good-old days before 3.0.
    - Making PoE for 5% "hardcore" 24/7 players since... No, not 3.14, but from 3.9 (actually, from 3.8 But Acts 1-3 were kinda cool revision in difficulty before 3.9 and *BOOM!* x3 hp, x6 armour to all mobs...)

    It really shows they are passionate about it but I wish they would have a bit more understanding for qol things for newbies, free respec until maps would actually retain so much players, if you got an argument why everyone should be forced to do story with every character, why not facilitate people that want to build their own stuff as a first player, it doesnt hurt anyone.
    For speedruns just have no respec%. For other modes such as ruthless just have it desactivated.
    In any case, for normal playthroughs it will show more skill expression of pros, will give a playground for new people to understand how stuff interact between each other, will expand the possibilities, and wont hurt anyone, really cant see why they refuse things like that.
    Personally I would also hope they would put more consideration into wording, or atleast have it written somewhere, knowing which multipliers are additive or multiply between eachother is a nightmare, not to talk about what modifiers even work with certain things. You literally can have like 20 different sources of fire boost and as a player with no experience you know nothing about how they interact, which ultimately means you just have to mindlessly follow a guide yes or yes.
    They have to walk this thin line of qol that are needed to be a better game, precisely because they care so much about the "integrity" of their game, is the reason I think they dont see these glaring problems that turn off a lot of people. It is not like these things are impossible to do.
    Another thing is flasks, pretty much everyone uses a macro for poe 1, their solution is better than not doing anything, but why not allow a keybind to press any number of the flasks at the same time, removes macro, makes it legal, all builds will still have 2 or 3 flasks that you constatly have to press, either make them automatic, or atleast let me legally macro those 3 flasks, it is actually so ridiculous and over the top to think that it would be a net lose for the game.

      Its also a class that stacks a lot of attributes in a game where there is little to no benefit to attribute stacking.
      Scion's only use in POE 1 is a currency sink. Yeah you can make powerful builds with them but only under specific circumstances with expensive costs.

    really sad to hear that push the campaign thing.... its one of the things that demotivate me to play instead of play more.... sad to see that diablo 4 is actually an improvement, and thats saying alot from a game where the devs are still learning what they want to do XD

    GGG is still shooting themselves in the foot here. Dividing already not exorbitantly large audience between projects, making a project that is not like one that their audience is used to... There are many recipes for failure and this is just one of them.
    As for making rolling maps even more tedious, expensive and cumbersome -- that's what their audience will understand, but definitely not support.

    POE is already overwhelmingly confusing and nearly impossible for new players to thrive in who are of average intelligence. League mechanics, crafting, builds, currency, and endgame require way, way, way too much of a time investment to learn from poorly created super long/boring/confusing/ADHD medicated endless multi part player guides/videos. Why make POE2 so challenging to play as well? I watched all the best players at ExileCon get their asses handed to them. If it was that tough for them then what about the average to below average players? You have a great looking product in POE2 that appears to be too difficult for me and millions like me to enjoy.
