What is your impression of the hunt so far? (feddit.org)

I did this thing and looked at poe2 reddit and there the community is melting down.

I so far only had time to play up to level 13, but like it so far because my actions and decisions actually matter in most cases when I fight.

I died often, but (almost) each time I knew what I need to change or get so I cannot yet relate at all to all the tantrums over there.

I belong to those who don't like the late endgame of poe1 or even 2 very much because its too much visually unclear bullet-hell stuff going on, so im personally much in favor of slower less ridiculous and slightly more human-skill based gameplay.

What's the sentiment of the few of us here on lemmy poe2?

This patch has been hell. Ive been trying to get my spark build up and going but holy hell is the campaign just a slog fest...

White mobs moving so fast that i cant get away from them and being stunned from almost everything that hits you.

The one thing i dont like is just how slow the base movement speed is and the skill attack/cast speed is now. This doesnt feel like an arpg that you would play through twice...

Interesting.

My spear wielding huntess using whirlwind and rapid stab mostly works quite well for me.

Well, the act2 boss took ages to kill, bit now I'm level 33, have my first lv2 support gem and things are going more smoothly already.

What do you use?

Nope, sadly even after connecting it doesn't show your build.
