I did this thing and looked at poe2 reddit and there the community is melting down.

I so far only had time to play up to level 13, but like it so far because my actions and decisions actually matter in most cases when I fight.

I died often, but (almost) each time I knew what I need to change or get so I cannot yet relate at all to all the tantrums over there.

I belong to those who don’t like the late endgame of poe1 or even 2 very much because its too much visually unclear bullet-hell stuff going on, so im personally much in favor of slower less ridiculous and slightly more human-skill based gameplay.

What’s the sentiment of the few of us here on lemmy poe2?

    Don’t worry too much about that, a few years ago Reddit went way off the deep end over some changes in poe1 and resorted to personal attacks against the devs and all sorts of wild vitriol. It was so bad that GGG actually made a special post about how hurtful and unproductive it was, and that even though they greatly value community feedback and interaction that the incident would force them to take a few steps back. And they noticeably did step back afterwards, including with the retirement of one of the great community managers of all time Bex (allegedly not related to the incident).

    So yeah, they are taking Reddit with at least a few grains of salt. It’s all good.
