Can you increase the difficulty? Game too easy now.

Heh gotta love people asking to slow down game speed, probably just because they can't be fast :D.

You know, you're right, there is a limit on how fast people can be. Average people have reaction time of ~0.5 seconds.
I also hate insane movespeed cause my LCD monitor cant display such fast things properly. And i bet, most monitors cant either.

Now you ask but why are there so many posts about game being too easy? Well we probably don't get many new players because I saw some threads recently of people quitting game because it was too hard. What do you have to say on that? Are they lying? So that is problem itself no new players that will stick to the game or they don't bother posting on forums. I have been playing since lunch of the game and I couldn't even make it to the maps because I refused to check guides and had 0 experience. Once I started checking builds and guides everything was easier.

The guy above trying to make this some kind of WOW/diablo game good luck with that.

There are so many posts about game being so easy, because it now IS, in fact. The fact is, characters became MUCH stronger with Ascedancies, Labyrinth enchants, new skills (EQ, ice trap, etc), but nothing was done to make content harder appropriately.

I play PoE since Open Beta. And PoE never ever was so easy and so fast-pacing as now.

I agree, you are great OP. Never change.

If you find the game too easy, why don't you set your own rules and create your own threshold on difficulty ?

I'm not interested in self-imposed penalties, I want to be challenged BY THE GAME.

So, in other words, you want THE GAME (as played by the whole community of players) adapted to YOUR standards ?

Every player wants that. Play a game, that suits him best.

But i bet, lot of other players also want to play a more challenging game.

Not my standards bro. It's PoE's supposed core feature and the devs' original design philosophy. :)
EDIT: It's not like I just randomly started playing this game and demand it to be shaped to suit me better. No, most of us were drew in by the punishing and unforgiving gameplay, but things have changed drastically since then. If that weren't the case, it wouldn't even occur to me to complain - I'd simply move along and find a game that is more suited for me!

Game is too easy as in Softcore gameplay? If you want difficult gameplay - play in hardcore where your mistakes are generally punished. HC would be the answer to difficulty that your looking for.

so if im not building everything besides champion conversion or another 9k hp eq i make a mistake?

If you're not building something that requires you to manually dodge incoming hits, evade packs of melee mobs, and use precise placement to avoid traps, you are playing an easy build. Someone who plays easy builds has no business complaining that the game is too easy. There are builds which can facetank Daresso. There are builds that can't. Try playing one that can't, if you don't want to be bored with the game.

In fact, why don't you try a summoner. They're plenty challenging. My new alt/main is a classic summoner with mistress of sacrifice and soul weaver, that uses Victario's charity shield to generate frenzy charges for my melee spectres (grapplers - flicker strike dischargers) via SRS, Animate Guardian and stone golem, plus 10 zombies for the lulz. Level 84 with approx. 5500 EHP and capped res.

In an average 2-pack fight I'll hit arc to curse on hit, spam 10-20 raging spirits, Pop a flesh offering, spam my silver, stibnite, and sulphur flasks (passed on to my zombies and spectres via umbilicus immortalis). There is no "boring" when you're that busy.

I think the difficulty in this game is just about right.

Perandus league has really been the perfect challenge.

Isnt grand hall of grandmasters enough challenge for you? =)

i am old gamer and i played a lot of games and so far in my experience every online game i played got dumbed down and made easier in time, and no it's not because i "mastered" this game, it is because the game is easy to the point you cant call it arpg anymore.....

PoE is no different, all the talk from devs that getting to 100 will take months, that gearing up your char will take a lot, that game will be hard and challenge you on your every step.....

all lies......when you factor in money, no company in the world will have spine and stand behind their words

besides money, biggest reason for this is cause the game is f2p.....because of it on every cry from casual folks that play 1-2 hours a week ggg needs to bend over
