      Some extra context for those who have not played: PoE2 does not hold your hand. When I was learning the game that fight killed me too. But I wasn’t claiming to be one of the best players, (I’d still describe myself as bad) and that same fight can’t even hit me now.

      I would generally agree but PoE is brutal and early game involves dying a lot. The fact that he thought dying was a problem is a WAY bigger tell that he’s never played the game. Dying POE is like dying in a souls game, it shouldn’t phase you in the least.
