Path of Nerfs

2017: We have an engine that can support limitless build diversity.


5% skills are somewhat worth doing, the other 95% are garbage.



Better nerf those remaining 5%.

guys its simple. If you are sick of GGG nerfing everything instead of fixing the underlying problems. stop buying supporter packs ffs.
I like it all except the exp nerf.

Chris, I once listened to someone interviewing you and one of your statements really stuck with me. You mentioned that you wanted a game for working class folks to come home from work and grind a little before bed. A game where money does not buy you advantages. Your MTX model was genius and you were basically describing me and most of the people I play this game with. They have income to spend on things the find entertaining.

Not a single one of us have ever made it to level 100. Hell, I think I have the highest level character at 96 and it was because I had a long break. No normal person grinds to 100 in a couple days or ever for that matter. Normal people play new patches when they aren't working and buy cool mtx once in a while. There is always the hope that one day someone will make 100. It sits out there as a possible goal. I'm afraid it's no longer possible.

Maybe I don't play enough or use the things you nerfed. None of it matter to me except the experience nerf. As a comparison, I played D3 when it first came out for a while. I was lucky enough to get an awesome drop - Shard of Hate. It was absolutely the best thing I found and I was having a blast for about 2 days. I came home from work stoked to play and there was a patch that day, nerfing Shard of Hate, because some fucking streamer was using it and Blizzard got their panties in a wad. I was so pissed I logged out and refused to ever play that fucking game developed by professional stream watchers again.

You're sliding down a razor over a pool of alcohol with these decisions. This can easily go south, fast. You're getting focused on the minority and not silent majority. Stop worrying about streamers and meth heads, they don't matter to the majority. They will always be around. Punishing the majority for a few is a sure way to piss people off. I'm writing this but most people I know won't because they react with their wallets. They will remain silent, and just like the last US election, you'll be standing there like CNN dumbfounded, confused and wondering what the fuck happened. Keep your devs off twitch and keep the servers healthy. Start talking to the people who never had a chance at 100 because they work for a living.



Great post.

Every round of nerfs there is so much crying yet the playerbase grows every league. Keep up the good work GGG!
When I kill a man he stays dead.
Too many people were stacking this modifier. So we nerfed it.

Please read the thread or don't comment. It's called context, look into it.
Too much censorship that you never even see. Totally removed posts and silenced accounts across all communities. https://www.youtube.com/@Innomen
At least chaos DoT builds didn't get screwed, hopefully the damage output is still the same, not a pro player but I'm not sure how anyone could say they're overpowered. Now if you could fix all the crazy frame drops with the game and make it playable for everyone again that'd be nice.

I didn't say any "casual friendly" game. You did. You aren't seriously telling me plants vs zombies is a suitable alternative to poe are you?

there are ton of arcade-like modern arpgs. diablo 3. sacred 3. van helsing. torchlight 2. you dont have to grind for shit in those games. and there dozens of old arpgs but they might be too hardcore for you.

grim dawn might be too niche for you, tis a shame. new tq came out just a day ago

I'm glad you agree I don't have any alternatives.
I dont agree with shit. you can create any criteria you like to fit one and only niche game into your criteria and demand that it be accessible to you. it doesnt work like that. your entitlement to get any game to be accessible by you is baffling and retarded.

I want to read a book about complex nuclear physics without being a nuclear physicist myself. guess what ? boo fucking hoo, right ?

read the rest of my post, it got edited badly. stop trying to come in into gay bars and make them straight.
