Announcing Ruthless
|
You destroy HC league playerbase thx ur vision.
My friends stop playing bcs its unplayable for normal person, or run to SC. Bcs chall. rewards. Now you think, something more hardcore is that what yours players want? It is just weird dream in CW head. And what is more funny ... players who mostly want play this mode are from SC XD Rly players who play only SC trade (here on forum)XD |

Because Chris is obsessed with the high he got from being the fastest click in NZ when playing D2. This is the one change for Ruthless that I really don't like. Ruthless would be a fantastic mode for PUGing if it weren't for this. I hate things in games that encourage bad behavior. This encourages bad behavior. Certain things about the way trade is set up encourage bad behavior. I wish PoE would grow up and realize that civilization is better than a world where people are brigands and thieves without consequences. If you insist on letting people steal from me, make a way for me to steal my shit back.[/quote] Really well stated. |

" Yeah honestly FFA loot will be terrible if you play with groups of strangers. I don't miss the days of D2 boss runs where everyone just mindlessly clicks the loot trying to get before everyone else. Ruthless sounds fun for a group of friends who can share loot though. "Hey bro that gem is good for you, grab it" "Yo dude this wand is good for you, take it" If Ruthless mode encourages players to group up or form better guilds, that's awesome. I look forward to that. If it ends up a sweaty competition of click speed and fastest latency, I'll stick to league/standard. Last edited by aktillum#3317 on Nov 3, 2022, 5:03:14 AM

Don't listen to all the haters GGG.
Halve the people in this comment section don't know what they want anyways. It should always be the decision of the company to give life to a game they want. The right players will come to the game. You don't have to please the wrong people. Reading all of the crap written here feels like many people should just go and start creating there own game as they clearly want something that is not your vision of the game and most likely will fail horribly. I hope those idiots are not discouraging for you and you keep up all the good work you are doing. I am looking forward to trying Ruthless even though i am not sure it will capture me. |

Spoiler
" Read again my original post maybe you're responding to the wrong one (behind spoiler to avoid flooding with a 10km post) Nowhere did i state my opinion was some kind of truth nor did i call out GGG for "wasting time" i clearly said it was a pet project. Nowhere did i engage in speculation toward the amount of people who will choose this over standard. All i said is "Curious to see how many people will give it a try & how many will be there after 8 days." Clearly intrigued about engagement & retention. I just have doubt about the longevity of this concept. So i'm really confused on how, finding it not so much to my liking, because i perceive it too grindy, without room for diversity & not worth my time, being some kind of projection. I never used "our" or "the community" i didn't spend my time create some kind of divider somewhere just to give my two cents feedback. Even ended with "GL & HF to those who find it interesting. Cheers." So yeah i'm a bit confused about the reply but thanks i guess. |

Personally i think this sounds amazing. I might suck at it of course, but that's not the point.
If you don't like the option; don't play it. Surely that's simple enough to understand. Last edited by Jordanic#4522 on Nov 3, 2022, 7:16:48 AM

Most items being normal instead of magical just sounds like absolute masochism for no reason lol.

Absolutely love the announcement.
The only thing that doesn't feel great is the removal of movement skills. I understand the vision, but can't stop thinking about the "feel like the early days of Path of Exile, just without desync." line. Movement skills still were a part of those early days. I'll never forget how Torr Oglosso leap slammed me during the first days of Anarchy. And how I tried to whirl my blades away from him. It would have been cool to add some version of movement skills for Ruthless, maybe with 5-10 sec unmodifiable cooldown or smth. To make them into sort of emergency buttons. Having said that, I havent been so hyped about PoE since the addition of 6 new acts! |

DoA mode.
May flourish for a league of two. Most fun you'll get out of this is watching streamers if anyone commits to it. Remove Archnemesis!
