I have replied to it, great thoughts overall 
Itās a lengthy response though.
They should add pets 
But in all seriousness, I would prefer it if the core gameplay loop does not change too much during boss fights. Iām fine with feeling OP fighting trash when Iām overleveled. But I should still adhere to mechanics for the most part during a boss encounters.
Thomas replied to me with this. Dont know what he meant with content going well above max level cap exactly.
I think he meant the current level cap is 30, and the contents that would be added later would be balanced for (example) lvl 40. So the lvl 30 players canāt rely on their equipments alone.
Yeah but doesnt the current content cap around level 13? Atleast thats when I killed the twins.
Depends whether you count Crucibles as current content or not.
Yeah. Well Iāve already made an alt that I left at 13 so I can continue the story with that one.
Would be pretty bad if you had to level to 30 to be able to continue the story after twins.
They shouldāve made the crcuible for level 15ish and capped at that imo.
We have experiences that are so far away from each other that I donāt think we can come to any agreement on the observations and the conclusions that we could make.
I enjoyed fully the first 10% of my playtime when you enjoyed most of it.
Iām concerned about the direction of the game when it seems that it mostly suits your expectations.
And itās fine.
Itās a matter of taste here, no point arguing.
Iāll just finish by answering your objections.
Iāll go for the one with the shortest answer to provide first.
I never said that you āhave toā be maxed out to tackle the Crucible.
I said that it is different from the first hours of the game āwhenā you are maxed out.
Concerning games where the best qualities are mixed and matched I have no problem at all with it, except if some core features conflict with each other.
And for me, in this game, it is exactly where we are.
Iāll try to keep it short.
Souls-like appeal is mostly mechanical.
No matter where I am in the progression what keeps me going is how varied the encounters are and how they break my habits to force me to adapt.
Thatās why my favorite Souls-like is Lies Of Pi.
Because breaking the fights rhythm is what it does better than any other one that I can think of.
Concerning gear and weapon upgrades: They have a small impact on your progression and can even be ignored to some extent.
Diablo-like appeal is partially mechanical but more predominantly in the gearing, the skills management and the skills rotation.
Diablo-like games are heavily gear and META skills oriented if you want to play at the highest level.
Those simple descriptions combined, to me, sound incompatible.
First because it means that at some point in the game Iāll be encouraged, if not forced by the content to play the META game.
And by essence I donāt like that.
Iām for āPlay what you want the way you wantā.
Like any Souls-like game did up to Malenia where everybody had to bend the knees to the META.
And second, if you tell me that the core of the game is a Visceral Action RPG and you give me a static spamming turret endgame gameplay.
I donāt think your promise is fulfilled.
Thatās pretty much it for me, I donāt think I have any other argument to put on the table.
I guess we need to figure out what that means to you? What do you mean by āaction RPGā?
Itās the āviseralā aspect that I want to see preserved.
Action RPG or Fancy 2D Plateformer is fine by me.
Still donāt really understand it, Iād like specifics, but thatās at your discretion. If you want to continue the dialog on this topic
I think he means that when they add more content that even at max level it is still a challenge. Thus that reaching max level is not enough to tackle the content, but other systems are required. Enchanting probably.
Thatād be great! I wouldnāt mind if youād need to group up for certain endgame content either outside of the story. Or maybe you could tackle it by yourself by decking out in enchants like you said.
Iām sure @Lamni means he wants to conserve the initial helplessness in the game. Resources maybe being more scarce, you being unable to overlevel the content thus making every encounter potentially deadly to the player.
I donāt want to act in bad faith but if with everything that I wrote on this topic, plus, everything that I have already wrote on other topics isnāt enough to get my point.
I honestly donāt know what I can add ā¦
Yeah maybe @RomoloHero or @Noktu can help out. 
I think @Lamni means that the Action in ARPG implies the visceral combat of the game in the early stages. The dodging, parrying, attack, charged attack, rune special. Where it is a mixture of multiple components coming together as one. Rather than spamming 1 rune special into infinity.

Yes I discovered this as well, was investing 6 points into my hybrid stats and the roi decreased significantly. Maybe it scales with level as well. Meaning that once we hit higher levels it scales harder. Some weapon stats seemed to have requirements of 100+ (still this was datamined)
I initially felt similarly until I realized I just became a better player, and it had nothing to do with how hard the first few hours were. The first few hours felt hard on my first character, but I started a second character from level 0 on a new realm, and I was mowing down stuff just as brainlessly as before. Donāt underestimate how much of the difficulty decrease is due to you just becoming a better player
Just replayed the game yesterday and skill does indeed matter quite a bit. But the game still provided a bit more challenge at the start.
However, game has so many broken and unbalanced systems that reduce the amount of skill required. I found myself just bacjstabbing most mobs to death on my second playthrough. Which has nothing to do with skill, rather abusing broken game mechanics.
I think the problem is the language barrier, I have bad English, I use a translator. I think you may have noticed from my posts.
So the fact that players are spamming 1 button just shows that the game is not balanced in terms of damage and attribute mechanics. This is exactly what Iām talking about.
Now in the game, if you maximize any one attribute that scales this weapon - then the damage of rune attacks will also be scaled, you know? So I propose to make it so that the conditional damage from rune attacks was not from the attribute that depends on the weapon. And from another attribute that is responsible for damage from rune attacks. For example, it could be intelligence. That would be logical. That is, you would not be able to maximize dexterity and at the same time do huge damage with rune attack, if you want to play through the rune attack, you need to pump intelligence.
But again, you need to change the character attribute mechanics to do that. Then the gameplay will become clear and logical.
