PoE is still boring compared to D2
Well it seems that your problem is you want to do something that feels rewarding but not feel like a bot while doing so which is incompatible right now in PoE.

" so fking true, no free endgame content in poe is not a good thing. whenever i start a new character i love to level up in random parties / farm blood auqa but that's it after that you just can't make a random public party and feel good imagine rolling all your maps / sextanting etc and then a big drop is allocated to some random guy who did nothing just leeched. with friends it's a different story tho, you can split the drops / cost of the content you are doing but sadly they are not online all the time, unless you have a big friendlist another problem is if you want to do things efficiently all you need is 1 carry 1 aurabot and 4 leechers ( maybe 1 boss killer for the hardest content ) and you are done. also if you are playing solo and picked a decent build then you basically don't need NOONE to play with you because you can 1shot everything without any help. so unless you go with the full IIQ gear with aurabot and bosskiller way there is literally no point playing in a party except leveling to split the quests still d2 is a piece of shit :D |

Problem is, everything in PoE gets ruined by min maxers. And by nolifers. I probably fit in one of those catagories too sometimes. But the thing is they want to keep PoE balanced like you would balance an MMORPG. But this is not that. And the result is that nothing is really worth doing anymore. Anything exiting gets nerfed instantly the next league to oblivion.

My biggest complaints against the games is that group play is awful for the most part and server stability never seems to be addressed.

For some reason, Loot is still more exciting in diablo 2 even though poe technically drops 10000% more loot. It's just none of it is actually worth idying or is ever actually good.

" I think one of the reason stuff have less value is because its way easier to trade in PoE. You have a huge database of items to choose from. Which results in prices getting lower and only really the best stuff is even worth selling. Last league found some really neat Elder Swords, but they where just slighlty worse other swords and that made em impossible to sell. Just like in D3s auction house, its far easier to find what you looking for by trading. Still people want a AH in PoE which no doubt would make things worse. I remember before when far less traded and the drop rates where lower in PoE. Certain drops atleast had more value. Now even some great uniques are worth 1c. Because so many find em, but not that many need em. Think Hardcore solves the issue a little because certain uniques you get from uber bosses will be way less common. I do agree that some rares are almost impossible to find good rolls on. Like claws, Staves, scepters etc... |

D2 is my favorite game but what you listed is the very definition of "you think you do but you don't".
D2 was overshadowed by PoE long ago. Trust me, you don't want to stay with your Ondal's Wisdom behind while some hammerdin kills everything in baal runs. also you mentioned Lost Arc...for 18 years people still seem to not realize that Korean games A L L W A Y S fail in the west.

Surely its just nostolgia?
To me legend of mir was the most fun ive ever had on a game and i enjoyed it more than any game i have played ever since (inc D2), but if i went back to a 20year old game now it would suck hard. #StandardLivesMatter

Doubt its nostalgia, i mean nostalgia isn't always a bad thing. I still play D2 because there are things i like, but saying its better than PoE? Nah..don't think so.
The content PoE has is just mountains more than D2. If only it had a good PvP system, it would be great. And honestly i won't mind runewords. But then again, it overshadowed D2 and this isn't a bad thing, its a 18 years old game after all. Still relevant to this day, and still the Father of ARPGS. No other game in the genre will take that from D2. Dernière édition par Kasapnica#2414, le 1 déc. 2018 à 07:15:37
