Alternatives to Campaign Skips lets discuss
|
Remove level requirements on gear and ppls 2nd+ chars will have the option of stat stacking n using op gear to zoom through campaign so theres no full skip but significantly lowers time for your later characters to reach endgame.
Do you like this idea? Why or why not? Or do you have a better idea? Last bumped on Apr 2, 2026, 5:35:10 PM

They just need to adjust the fkn maps in the campaign and make it at least couple hours shorter. Act 3 got the most changers before but it still feels bad.
It doesnt matter how fun they wanna make the campaign, if its too long it still gonna feel like a drag. |

" Why do you want to skip half of the game? |
|
" I disagree. I mean right now campaign is so easy you can zoom through it with twink gear everybody can afford and low lvl uniques are seeing constant buffs. More stats wouldn`t make much of a difference... except for movespeed. |
|
" Not everyone wants to watch the same movie over and over every league/every alt character. |
|
" Because mapping is not the same? Sorry to tell you, but _every_ game repeats itself. Because it's a game, and not the real world. |
|
" No, mapping is not the same as campaign. The first 1-65 levels of campaign are largely unconsequential. Anything you do won't really matter because you are not going to be getting gear upgrades or anything important/useful for your class. Mapping has league mechanics and it's where you start to find useful gear/loot. So doing campaign for 6-9 hours each time you want to start a new league or on every alt character is seen as "wasted" time, not to mention how tedious it is. While mapping, you can map to unique maps, citadel bosses, pinnacle bosses, etc. that can alter and change your build. If you thinking mapping is the same as campaign, sorry I don't know what to tell you because I fundamentally see them different. Also, a lot of builds don't really come online until late game with some of the gem requirements and required ascendencies. And let's not forget that we are missing 3 acts still....if they are the same size as act 1 or interludes, fine it's bearable. But anything longer and I think GGG will lose all but the most hardcore/niche POE players. That's why POE1 will never grow in player base and POE2, while intended for casuals, will bring anything but. |

" > No, mapping is not the same as campaign. Who said it's the same? Stop comparing apples to oranges. Campaign is always the same. Mapping is always the same. Same same, but different. If you don't want to play the game...don't play the game. |
|
" Typical POE2 fanboy response when they come up against any criticism of the game. |
|
|
At this point in the game development and what is even available at end game. That would be a really silly suggestion.
POE1 has seen this same feedback over the years and they never budged so I wouldnt count on POE2 doing it for some reason. I dont even know whats so excrutiating about the campaign anyways. Its .... like what bloom head says. I really dont get the whole "MUST RUSH TO MAPPING ARGHHH" mindset in a league that lasts 3+months long. Mash the clean
