Inactive players discussion

Yeah nah
Some people are seriously more deeply entrenched in POE. A more suitable greeting would be "What games are you currently playing now?" rather than talking about POE.

You don't really care to chat about POE if you don't play POE. You don't care to chat about about Other sensitive topics because that isn't allowed either.

People lose interest, and that is fine by me. Some people I used to see are no longer here. Slowly slipping away and eventually they stop visiting. I'll say it's quite normal.

What's something that you used to really like before, now you don't. Like tourists more than regular locals. Might be somewhat nostalgic and sentimental to some but a Strange and unfamiliar place to others.

That makes absolutely no sense.

Yeah, this has real "I cant beat him in the game, so I'm gonna beat him outside of it" energy

It's actually quite the opposite, if anyone I'm the one who has better odds of "beating" Ben, and Ben isn't even as good as most think he is, because I've seen the type of mistakes he's doing, and that's normal in the end. Ben has effective "winning" strategy, and it's also again depending on the type of event, the rules in place, and then on GGG what they can do to allow others to be able to "separate" more through their "skills" and "experience" in "beating" Ben.

Ben has "earned" from the event significantly more than anyone else will, especially if I count the twitch revenue he's been receiving lately thanks to it, but the lack of Gauntlet events over the year is just indication of what I'm talking about, and why these "streamers" can always do better to "promote" themselves and the product they're streaming where they gain the most views from.

Still sounds like a whole load of jealousy. Just beat him fair & square if he isn't as good as you think he is, or do you have any other excuse up your sleeve?

Thanks to the "Misery" Gauntlet more will have a better opportunity in "beating" Ben, because "not sleeping" will have a far less impact on the final rankings (I hope). Ben is still favorite to get furthest than most, because of the amount of time he's already spent practicing on past Gauntlets, and overcoming a content that he's already well familiar with.

Ben goes way back to WOW with his bossing experience, and GGG design in bosses is quite similar to WOW. PvE in the end isn't PvP, and there's ways to make bosses and "bossing" better in terms of AI (artificial intelligence), or design the combat in ways where the player has to adapt on the spot, during the fight rather than "memorize" static mechanics done in sequences.
