Announcing Ruthless

Very excited and waiting for it.

I will be completely burnt out while doing 6000 atlas grind and will not be playi g next league.

But this will bring a new refresher, completwly different gameplay to the game.

Would apply to alpha, but I need 3 more weeks of 30maps/fay to finish 6000 grind.. :/

ok, this is rly hardmode lol

Will definitely give it a go. Pretty sure I won't last more than an hour or two, but it's an intriguing prospect.

Well, well, well. Now stop ruining normal mode.

GGG: Let's dilute HC player base even more...

Also, ruthless sounds like something that would be very shameful to play and talk about because it would speak volumes about what kind of person you are and what goals in life you dont-have... You do realize, you are asking people to give up their life, literally lol. Who are these people that would do that? That's the only exciting answer I am looking forward to.

I will still give Ruthless a try while working on industry engineering projects. Also keep in mind that I initially will have humble goals like getting to act 2 for example. I already know I won't get to maps but that is ok because the campaign is the main game anyway.

That said, it is a bit of a shame HC Trade (the original main POE league) is not given enough development attention.

Having experienced a bit of Ruthless, I predict I will value regular HC drops more.

Holy crap, this is literally everything wrong with the game amplified..... the fun in this game was choice and variance not the repeated deaths.. Taking away stuff to make gear with odds as terrible as they already are ain't any more rewarding than signing up for a lottery ticket with worse odds...its just demoralizing even for your ssf fan base.... Completely wrong direction to take the game

Then don't play it.
Why do people like you always try to insert themselves into the conversation? Go whine on reddit instead.

So hype for this game mode, thank you GGG!

AWESOME
HYPE

Making a game harder okay, i can understand that to a degree.

But reducing loot to almost 0?
Literally remove deterministic item farming and crafting?

I just dont see how thats supposed to be fun? Who likes a game with 100% rng, almost no items, almost no crafting, almost no anything?

I just dont get it.

I mean fine, if its just a flag to pick, fine whatever.

But please stop trying these things (in smaller scale) in the normal poe game. I think the majority of your community doesnt want more rng, they want less rng :)
