Yeah. Its the new reality with GGG. Really missing the time they interacted with and valued their community.
Does anyone know if we can complete The Settlers of Kalguur challenges during the event? Nevermind I need to read more thoroughly.

Right now it's a downward spiral and the ground is uncomfortably close.
All alarms are buzzing and the flight computer is screaming..
** !! PULL UP !! PULL UP !! PULL UP !! **

Three years without a half decent league with proper extra content. Instead either loot showers or power creep to mask the lack of actual content.
Three years without endgame expansion. No, no and no! Pinacle bosses with Gauntlet mods, aka Ubers, is not endgame expansion no matter how hard you will try to paint it that way.
Three years of reading and clicking same old altars. Which btw disrupt the game flow so badly that I am exhausted by even thinking about inserting another map into the device.
Three years of blindly buying supporter packs in good faith because historically GGG always had our backs and naturally GGG would have eventually done right by us. They would, right? Surely GGG would make a huge endgame expansion for poe1 right before poe2 early access launch, right? Surely this would be the way to compensate us for 3 years of GGG skating on a thin layer of our borrowed trust. Surely this would be the proper way to capitalize, right? Making a huge good will PR stunt and therefore incentivising players to spend money on early access to beta test their new poe2 game, right?
Let it sink in.
After three years of nearly religious loyalty we get 7 months extended delayed league and a singular event which is not even an event but a parallel league restart with a mini loot shower twist. Basically a slap in the face.

Best and most based comment.
Affliction and Necropolis worst leagues ever. The current game design has slowly turned this game into a loot-shower fest, chase uniques are way too available; and obtaining chase items through stacked decks simply isn't fun. Rework stacked decks needed.
HAAH well at least that one got GGG to do something in this thread... Removed by support. Yips they live still and are reading. just not bothering to actually TALK to their community.

+1
This announcement is a disaster and will go down in infamy as one of the worst things to happen for the longevity of this game. Right up there with the console release and Tencent buyout.
(2-3-2019) Buff underused skills (3.23?!)+ selfcast, stop nerfing defense, build in threshold jewels (3.23?!), implement D3-style looting, add death log + MTX preview, actually rework flasks, stop balancing around the .01%, unnerf Harvest, ADD NEW WAYS TO LEVEL, finally implement Loot 2.0
Common... at least throw in TotA as well.
* THIS IS NOT A NEGATIVE POST IT IS SIMPLY A NEUTRAL STATEMENT *

As someone who farmed their first mirror last league and enjoyed it a lot. I have zero interest in playing the same league a second time, plus some random chaos dropping in maps from "new old" mechanic. It will be my first skipped league in years. No emotional feelings here, just a statement of how I used my time before and how I won't use it during 3.25 v2.

it's actually better to not respond at all and reduce the surface area of angry comments. it's a reasonable PR tactic to contain the backlash. they didn't ask for feedback and it's not a negotiation. they just presented what is most likely all they can do assuming they put all eggs into the poe2 basket and there was no plan b with poe1 because they got nothing for 3.26.

to be clear, i think this delay was handled very poorly and the way poe1 gets treated is a joke. i'm not a whale, but i made my account during open beta, i think the foundation of poe1 is solid and i want that game to be improved while i don't care at all about poe2. i was already very detached from the game due to the way they have neglected it for over two years, but 3.25 brought me back with the currency exchange. i can't say i'm very hyped about the future of poe due to this announcement and the lack of effort with the relaunch of settlers.
