Path of exile 2 is (almost) exactly what Maurice wanted
Path of exile 2 still plague these problems
According to Grinding Gear Games, there are four central problemsthat currently cloud your fun:
- Scales: Many skills and builds are either too strong or too weak.
- Lack of unique items: There are too few legendary items that really change the gameplay.
- Endgame-Probleme: Progress does not feel optimal, the right incentives are missing.
- Loot-Mangel: There are not enough exciting items to discover in the endgame.
Balancing in particular is a tricky affair: the developers originally have some overpowering player skills in early access, but that was not well received by the community. Now you only want to make bigger adjustments with big updates such as 0.2.0.
Update 0.2.0 should change a lot – but when?
To solve these problems, Grinding Gear Games is already working on version 0.2.0. The update should not only bring balance adjustments, but also contain a really large highlight that attracts the player back into the game-maybe the first new class has been waiting here since the early access release?
There is still no precise release date, but the team plans to publish larger content updates every few months. So it shouldn't take a long time before we find out exactly which innovations 0.2.0 have.
