From what we've seen so far, do you feel you're going to stay with PoE1 or move to PoE2?

POE1 for now, but it's getting harder and harder to see a future where both games get the dev attention they require.
“Freedom is what we do with what is done to us.”
One day I'd like to say both games, as of now it might be an 80/20 split between poe 1 and poe 2.
I will play each new Season / Major update to both. I like Both games.


POE 1 is still #1 to me, and that is 100% because of challenges and something to push for.


POE 2 has balance issues, and all the "hard" bosses are waay to easy as builds are very overtuned.

POE2 made a BIG leap in the right direction with Abyss and the current crafting.



Also due to cosmetics that work for both games, i will end up just spending more $$ as new sets come out for both games Leagues / Major Updates.
PoE 1 - yes, till they work on this, but it feels they focus on PoE2 mainly, just a matter of time for PoE 1.

PoE 2 is pretty much bad as D4, it needs minimum 2 years to be semi good.
Remove graphics, effects and PoE 2 is pure garbage, after you learn some things, play more you start to understand how super easy and boring this game is. But it's good game for "Playstation hit of the week" type, play once and forget it.

Maybe in few years, I can change my mind, but I value RL more, but if game would become really really good, maybe. All depends on Tencent.
Underserved. All bets are off.

edit: d4 bad

bad d4 > poe2
POE1 will stay my main focus.
learning is a painful process ... knowledge is the most deadly weapon.

Permanently moved to poe2. All my skins, stashes are at poe2. Some will come as they are not in poe2 yet.
Playing POE since 0.9.0
PoE 1 for sure. I think they made a mistake to make a new game instead of upgrading/ overhauling poe1 to a state of a "new" game. Other MMOs did very succefully, for example Dofus transitioned to Dofus 2 without being a different game. Now GGG might see more players but in reality they only divided and diluted the player base. Players feel the servers thined out simply because they actually are. Some in Poe2, some in Poe1 standard, some in the different leagues and each server feels abandoned. I play poe1 standard and some times it feels like single player offline game, no trade interaction for days. I think it is a mistake, something has to bleed out and left for dead in order for something else to take off. This is basic stuff, and as other stated the attention from developers is also thined out and diluted not just the players.
You thing I khare, but I realy dond.
