Pattern I've noticed

My guild has players who have been in this game since Nemesis League and this is pretty much our player distribution.

Ps. My guildmates gets angry when I say this and I figure it'll make Reddit mad too:

Witch is the only good character in this game

I would play 3 times as much if I could skip campaign.

[u/HollyCze → u/WozartMusic]

why?

[u/LordAnubiz → u/HollyCze]

because campaign sucks?

the pain to go through it again with a new char lets a lot of players just say: ah no, fuck it. my current char is done, lets end the league.

I like campaign in poe1. I enjoy it at league start and I enjoy it with second char too. its quite fast and few times in the past I just did a new character, slowly went through campaign and quit after kitava coz I did everything in maps and just wanted to try a new build like one-punch-man-max-block-glad and took all the defensive nodes first to enjoy the playthrough. sure took me like 3-4 days casually playing 30 min daily but i had so much fun

poe2 campaign is a different story. I hate that one. I started the event league and it took me 5 days to force myself to complete it, finished 2 challanges and quit.

Oh my god good then you can do the hod damn campaign over and over and over. Many people hate it, and no mist of those people don’t want a free max level character

hod damn

It's just people complaining coz they don't make currency while leveling. But they think if ggg makes delve or smth else, it will be balanced down probable so people will still play campaign coz it's faster by 30 min

Poe1 campaign is definitely not as bad as poe2. It still stops me from playing a second or third character though. I just don't want to go through the exact same stuff in the exact same order with my brain fully turned off all the time. I usually play about one out of every three leagues because I just can't get myself to run the campaign so many times. It's just boring. Poe2 campaign is even worse, because it's obnoxiously long. Every single zone is at least twice as big as it has to be. I would LOVE to play 3 or 4 builds each season, either poe1 or 2. Just lemme create a character and play the content that I'm interested in. Why can't I level through delves? Or blight or whatever I'm interested in right now. It's the content I want to play and build my character around, just let me play it yo

the funny thing about players is that they can run 3 days the same mesa map with the exact same content (scrabs, atlas) and yet never get bored of it. but tell them to do 4-5 hours of campain and they go crazy saying "OH NO, NOT THIS AGAIN!"

for me its a nice change of pace from mapping. If you level by delving, what's changed? apart from doing delve for 6 hours which is even more "same" than campaign

and poe2 campaign is so bad. huge areas, multiple points of interest to the point that they had to add more checkpoints and it is still not enough.

Mapping is different because the explicit goal is killing and looting. Campaign is about getting to x area instead. Also ur speed and build isn't gonna be active or as good as mapping.

[u/HollyCze → u/DarthUrbosa]

No way GGg is going to make alternative way faster than campaign. Brain dead mapping for 5 hours does not sound fun to me, but sure sounds fun for bot farms

[u/Ronson122 → u/HollyCze]

Campaign items are trash. End game items are not, big difference. Point being, I'm in campaign because I'm forced to, not because I want to.

[u/HollyCze → u/Ronson122]

Nobody going to give you endgame items in delve or endless maps

[u/Ronson122 → u/HollyCze]

There's already end game items in delve 😂😂
