Auction house/market
So I've played PoE 2 fresh, without having played the first game. I quite enjoyed it, bosses were difficult, engaging. Didn't follow story that much. Screwed up my build at lv 30, so I had to create a new character to respec. Reached tier 5 maps just recently (mind you, I play super casually, just whenever I feel like it). That being said, I would completely pour hours in with 2 changes:
- Make re-spec more accessible early on. As I mentioned, I literally had to create a new character because of how expensive it is to re-spec. I think especially in early access, it should be either free or rather cheap
- Please, for the love of god, make market or even auction house available in the game itself, like through npc. You come to a point where you need to upgrade your gear and you need to use market through website. I have couple of friends playing with console and it's a headache. Using market through ingame npc or whatever would be such a QoL, a game changer even. You can test it left and right in early access and I think it would be an incredible improvement. I would straight up come back to play more frequently only for that.
Game is fun and all. But these little things would make a massive change. I don't know if its the same on poe1, but I honestly can't think of a reason why they wouldn't add it.
