Our 3.16 Expansion Timeline

Great

I wish I could feel bad for people that constantly fall for the hype build they do every 3 months.. after a while it gets old specially after the last 2 leagues.

Better start reading the room in general dev's and not your favourite kids (streamers) and start making better decisions.

But who I'm kidding I'm willing to predict that you will go back to your usual practices and decisions on 3.17.

Fyaaa!! Delete harvest and heist contracts and get some more workable defenses in and game is 10/10!

When they dragged on heist for a month i was always hoping they would shorten the next 3 or 4 leagues by one week to put everything back on track, but no, they're just doing what they want now and not even trying to remain consistent like they did for so many years. If it isn't obvious they have WAY too much on their plate I dont know what is. God forbid they slow down and actually try to fix and balance the game but again no. I mean...whats next? half a dozen npcs and a million voice lines no one will care about and a dozen new skills to where 3 are playable? Give us next to almost no new content.
This game is in serious trouble and needs attention in the important places and not a the usual flashy things to sucker in new players to buy some tabs but then they keep getting one-shot, not know why, then leave. Didn't they say at the end of Heist they were going to sort of slow things down and put quality over quantity or something? I forgot how that went but it was something along those lines I wanna say.

wait... end of October? Is it not going to be mid October?

Should be the 22nd, but with recent lockdowns etc in NZ I have a feeling they will push it to the 29th.

Game is still great, 3.15 has been an awesome league. I feel bad for the ones who call themselves PoE fans yet don't enjoy it. You want to talk about reading the room? Fine, how about reading the target audience of the game and not what the "fanbase" has become over the past two years. The game got more popular, sure, but it wasn't better. It was a different game than the one the developers wanted to make and they should be free to make the game they want without people demanding they change their views. It's a game, and not the only game out there, so people who don't like it need to go elsewhere and not just threaten loudly to go elsewhere while staying here to complain.

Now, that being said, game has its issues and I wouldn't pretend to think otherwise. The majority of issues I feel have been acknowledged and at this point it's time to let them deliver what solutions they come up with. Over the past three podcasts I heard a lot of repeat questions which as a viewer felt really bad to watch because we were already given an answer and they're having to repeat themselves instead of covering other topics.

I'd also like to add that as players we can be great at finding a problem that needs fixing, but without knowing what systems are being planned for the future (and we shouldn't be privy to that information either), we don't know what issues will become non-issues, or vice versa. So until we see how GGG wants to address issues like defenses, flasks, ailments, curses, etc. with the context of what they know they have planned further down the pipe, and we actually play with it for a reasonable amount of time, we really can't know what current problems will remain problems.

The community at large has been heard on several important topics, now its time to wait and see what they present us with. And if we can't do that without being cynical and making snide comments about the company, its employees, or other fans, then we don't deserve to have a product from them at all.

im more curious in new league mechanic

My bet is Oct 29th

I would be surprised if it was any earlier

I would also be surprised if GGG did anything good for the game

Dont worry bois, all the good stuff has been removed

We found that our players were enjoying the game so we removed it

number of clicking required per day to play PoE has been reduced from 99999999999999999999999999999999999 to 9999999
