Development Manifesto: Harvest Crafting
" Same - I bricked my explody/frezy chest doing something stupid..trying to remove a untagged with regular annul - I did stupid because I thought - self- no big deal to take this risk I can easily get back on the grind and make another one... So much for that idea. Nothing in 2 whole conquer sirus loops (about 100 maps) all in atoll... Been nerfed hard. At least this week maybe longer. No tinfoil needed. GGG has said they can and will nerf drop and spawn rates on the fly for game balance and after this manifesto they probably did... Prices at TFT reflect this as well. Git R Dun!

Nice...
The English version has more than 4,000 posts, reddit has a ton of detailed posts with a bunch of pluses, and even the Russian branch has more than 1,000 posts and... Nothing) Cool GGG listens to its community, just zero reaction, no answers, no explanations, silence. It should be a shame, even in Diablo 3 they gave feedback and promised to rebalance the firebird set after the final nerfs for the start of the 23 season, which people did not like. Here many wrote (on the Reddit, too) that they will no longer buy support packs and will go to other games. I haven't played POE for a year, because it takes too much time for me to build a normal build, after the manifest of this I definitely won't come back for another year, and maybe more, I made pre-orders for Diablo 2 ressurected. Diablo 3 in this regard gives much more emotions in a shorter period of time, and due to the fact that it is easier, my wife plays it with me. In POE does not want to. Too long and complicated for her. And with this attitude to the community, it's too much for me, too. |

" What do they need to explain? They made this post in order to explain everything. What kind of answer or reaction do you want from them? VAC RGL RGI SOE DCC

If the next league, the percentage of time and effort spent on Harvest is more than all other mechanics again, we will have another nerf on Harvest. And nope, boycotting or not playing will not help as you will not be counted in the percentage. The only way is to play the game and not do Harvest as much as before.

" Weird logic... The only way we can show our disrespect the changes, so we are not supporting the way where POE goes is not not play and not spend money. |

I m a big fan of you GGG. And supported you since the day I have met you. I m not posting on forums usually. I just feel like a kid again, I was having the toy of my life (happy I could try more builds and experiment even further and beyond in this game), finally got access to some really cool thing (and i m still gonna play till league ends). The economy was really healthy, everyone was hyped for harvest and then what you do? I know it may be late but you can still save it all. I will support what I enjoy, as I always do. Don't forget that without Blizzard and Diablo this game would not exist and that most of your player base comes from the promise blizzard have broken. Now it s on you turn on braking dreams/promises, expect what is inevitable and it may come in less than one year.

" They made a post and received unprecedented feedback, many people gave reasonable and logical arguments in favor of the fact that Harvest in its current form is only good for the game on their part (the number of players at the start of the league and a month later proof of this), makes the threshold for entering hardcore and SSF leagues easier, involving those who would have simply stopped playing before. It also makes the items on the trade leagues more accessible for beginners and those who can not spend much time on the game. In addition, Harvest allows you to massively create builds that previously could not exist and close all the content, there is also evidence of this in the form of PoE Ninja So what? Did GGG counter-argue these arguments in any way? Have you given more compelling reasons to reject the benefits that the current Harvest has brought? No. They chose to simply ignore the feedback. Cool. Just a reminder, Mar 24, 2021 posted by Chris: " |

At the end of every league, I ask myself - do I really want to go through all this again? Does it still feel like fun, or does it start feeling more like.. work?
Now, when I imagine I will need to spend so much more time mindlessly grinding to get the same result as with the current state of Harvest, it just suddenly seems like a boring work to me. Messing with the tags a little to eliminate the most insane crafts would be so much better then the introduced nerfs. |
