Thank you for pointing out the comparison of a video game feeling like a job.

It's up to me to create efficiency for my work load. That might get you banned here.

the way I see it is, what did it cost? and how long did it engage you?

after buying a 50$ cdn prepaid and spending 42$ of that to achieve 30 usd,
having 8$ cdn left over on the card which I will never spend so its another
gift to mastercard.... oh also theres an activation fee of 6$. oh and tax.

so like 56$ cdn to spend 42 while being taxed on 50 and wasting 8.

money well spent.

why? because im well over a few hundred hours. for 56cdn? thats nothing.

I'm confident I will enjoy this game until the several thousand hour mark.

what more do you want?

the campaign is extremely tight to the balance of the classes. some are weak,
others strong. I want ggg to strengthen the weakers and possibly reduce the
strong. focused on campaign balance. You get that right? you move on to endgame
balance. lvl 70, then 75, then 80.

the people at lvl 100 should be dealt with last, as the clear minority.
If life sucks at lvl 70? you did it wrong. focus on the imbalances
from the ground up.

So basically you're saying that collecting pokemon in pokemon should also be automated, since it's unnecessary work.

You seem to confuse a game with something you wish for.

Yep. I enjoy it more than the original. I just find it more visceral. POE2 is one of my all-time favorites.

Do you even remember what you were arguing against?

I said the game has a built in DPS meter and customizable item filter which can also sell junk.

You don't need a 3rd party program to help you find your actual DPS or compare two items. You can just hit a dummy for a minute. In other words for PoE2 others have already taken the efficiency shortcut for you because the game doesn't tell you jack.

I made my own item filter for PoE2 on release because there wasn't one. Another 3rd party feature the game has relied on for years. The auto sell feature I mentioned doesn't even come into play that much because the game doesn't bloat the ground with junk like PoE.

The first is so easy to do that by myself, I have done it for other games.
The second is because itemization in PoE has terrible design.

Do you happen to recall GGG saying they didn't want to drop currency in stacks because it might make it feel less rewarding due to gaps? Then they did it and it's 10x better.

For me not. The best game i ever played is Diablo 2. And second place takes Dungeon Siege 2. Epic games to epic years. Nowadays it's only Companies profit and big pockets.
