A tip for the future: Whenever you see some new debuff on your character - press Esc to pause and hover over them to read what they do in the top left corner! This one, for example, says "you can deal damage only while standing in ..." or smth like that.

With the current target release date they need to Release 2 Classes and a 4th Act in 0.3, then the same for 0.4, then 6th act and the last class on release. But testing ALL acts and classes BEFORE release is totally unfeasible. Especially since Jonathan said they are planning to do 1 act at a time.

The thing is: There are a million ways of achieving the same goal that they had - smooth the learning curve and make it less punishing, but they chose ones that remove the core identity of the job, that's the main pain point. At least there are two jobs I semi-enjoy still: AST and RDM, but bruh.

Happy for you, but as a BLM main it's just not fun to play anymore, I gave it a few days to grow on me, but no, every fun aspect of it for me was removed if you include 7.0 changes, you don't even care in which order you use your abilities. Progging EX4 Blind as RDM currently, but I am quite sad =(

"...We actually had a huge amount of complaining because there are tons of people that be like 'Oh but I want to finish this and that' So we actually had to take quite a firm stance about it of we're not allowing overtime for a while because people need to detox on it, as a studio it's bad habit"

Jonathan: "Before Early Access released we had a pretty terrible overtime situation and people gotten kind of used to working overtime - all the time. As soon as Early Access launched we set a strict policy of no voluntary overtime..."

It's just an efficiency issue, if you are going to town to vendor a bunch of shit every zone in the campaign - you are being inefficient. Nothing is stopping you from *not* picking up garbage to vendor it, you are doing it to yourself. And reducing loot is a better solution than a bigger inventory.
010
VanByyrg @vanbyyrg.bsky.social · 10/02/2025
In the endgame of PoE1/2 you only get 6 portals to any map, meaning you cannot endlessly vacuum loot. The game is balanced around that, the more experienced you are, the less garbage you will pick up because it is not worth your time.

Don't get too excited, this is basically a way to attract eyes to the interview with directors that will be live right after the short video. There's never something THAT big in minor patches and it wouldn't be a "short" video

No need for an account if you are not sure she's going to enjoy it! Grab 2 controllers and try couch co-op for a while, you only need one account for that and it works on PC as well!

Sadly at the very start of EA it won't be available on Mac, but they will add the support as soon as they can, there was some technical issue presumably

I'll be adding everyone who said they are going to start streaming on PoE2 EA launch in a bulk later to the list and the starter pack, it's a bit of a hassle keeping track of who is where (especially in the starter pack), hoping bsky will add a feature to convert a list to a starter pack

And you can add an 8 second cooldowns to the ability of your choosing yourself with Hourglass support. Also, you can reset the cooldowns of Time Freeze to freeze it twice in a row. AND the cooldown of the Temporal Rift, which is really interesting how THAT will work if you use it twice!
