I keep getting lag in PoE2 for no reason. Everything will be running smooth and I’ll suddenly have a half second delay on inputs. My computer is better than the recommended specs so I can only assume there is some optimization they need to do still.
PoE1 blew the pants off Diablo 4 even with its feature bloat.
There is currently an issue with game sounds in PoE 2 that causes unusual lag.
You can make it somewhat better using in game settings by changing "channel count" to low.
To make it a LOT better, go to (in windows) documents\My Games\Path of Exile 2 -> poe2_production_config.ini and under [SOUND] change as many options to "false" (NOT 0, which turns the volume off, but still accesses the sound files) as you can tolerate.
How did Reaper of Souls fundamentally make the game better? I never played it other than the open beta back in the day. I see this all the time though.
I’ve heard this too, but never had the desire to get back to it
At this point I’m done with blizzard. I haven’t played one of their games since D3. My backlog is large, and I have other studios I trust to deliver more, AND the studio culture at Blizzard, I just don’t see the need
