3.13 Launch Delayed until January

That's a good decision IMHO.

Thats a bad decision. I wont play this other game so it just delays the patch by a month for me.

This just in POE Season Delayed for a game that isn't even #1 on sales on steam.. Cyberpunk got outsold by Phasmophobia multiple weeks in a row.. Sounds pretty stupid.

Kinda can't believe this. Are bad Supporter Pack Sales scaring you really that much, that you delay a Full month? Just because of this Single Player Game? Many People already can't wait for the end of Heist and you put a month on top of it... No Words. Hello Tencent btw!

Until now I did not even know what it was.....

and having now just googling it, I would think players who play poe would most likely not be playing that.

But now I have to find something to fill in my 3 week xmas vacation gaming fix....

Cyberpunk has not released yet. Most people preordered MONTHS ago. Your comparison is what is pretty stupid, comparing a released game to a preorder game that has been able to be pre ordered for almost a year.

I've been long time player and supporter of PoE.

GGG Team, don't listen to these people saying "Pathetic", "lame".
Every game hits a few roadblocks, and not everything is perfect, but i'd wager you guys are at the very least 90% on point everytime.

And with Covid and Lockdown, don't listen to these clowns, you're doing an amazing job.

I'm sorry but I don't buy this. Another game is being released so PoE doesn't release its extension to not compete with it? It's christmas, this happens every year.

I believe GGG has some issue so they're delaying the release. This is a good thing. Heist is still beta, so delaying the next release until it's properly developed and tested is the right thing to do.

Quitting this impossible 4 releases per year cycle would also be the right thing to do. Quality over quantity!

The only thing they are afraid of is that (assuming) not a single streamer would stream POE at league launch, because of C2077, other than that - that's a very weak excuse. Oh well, it's their loss.

I don't think they assumed. I think they actually made a poll from streamers.

Streamers are the bosses. Other players are just white mobs.

I was just thinking about it really.. maybe they made a poll between streamers and found out that nobody would stream it since twitch culture is about following that hype train constantly..

Bit pathetic still.. not only normal people have to deal with market being managed by streamers but apparently the direction of future content as well.

Another point is that, isn't such decisions quite hurting to GGG staffs themselves? I mean, we are working hard to be able to meet the deadline of 3.13 (assuming correct), and the boss say delay because of another game. So POE is second class to other games. And since this is set as precedence, future release of POE expansions schedule will need to take cue from every other major games, and only release at "safe" timings where players have nothing else to play except POE.

was not planning on getting Cyberpunk till it has been out for a month. Poe during xmas. So the timing does not work for me heh. Just iron game breakers out please..
