Poe2 is now sitting at like 50k above poe1 peak and I have a feeling average player numbers will continue to drop. GGG would be mental to abandon poe1. #coping Settlers was successful because of the poe2 hype. Even I came back to play it (on my main account) because I figured it might be the last league.

So after a month of denial & anger you've already reached bargaining . That was quick .

You guys are so dramatic, lol. How do you even function in daily life, when you react this violently and despairingly to the news that a league is being delayed. Like, even in the worst case scenario, all that happens is that a good ARPG stops being supported. There will be other games in that case, it's not the end of the world. On top of that, it's also not even that likely that PoE1 will stop being supported. As long as there's good money in supporting it, they will keep doing it.

You mean the damn game that funded poe2 and poe1 and GGG and everything? Wait until the D4 refugees and people like you drop POE2.	Posted by Kaukus1#7461 on Jan 30, 2025, 9:48:04 PM Quote this Post
" HeroEvermore#0498 wrote: Looks like the end of me playing GGG games honestly. I have 0 interest in poe 2. PoE 1 is dead now so idk what they were thinking. They just traded player base to one that's not been dedicated for a decade+ So lose a 12 year player for a D4 player? That is what is going on with poe2 numbers. I don't know why you would do this either. They are trading hardcore dedicated, paying customers for a hype spike that will be gone like with most other ARPGs that are similar to it.

People like us are the reason GGG employees get a paycheck. People like us are the reason they got to develop PoE 2. If we didn't care, the company would've died like 5 years ago. Free to play games ride on whales, who dedicate their time and money to it. If they leave, it's dead.	Posted by SirWaji#3062 on Jan 30, 2025, 11:22:13 PM Quote this Post
