Some of these comments are a joke.

Come on guys! We must give GGG a break.

These guys have consistently delivered for us in POE 1 for years and years, bringing regular quality expansions to us in a timely manner! I do think we have been very spoiled and now we are so used to it that we fully expect them to keep delivering at this rate without a hitch. Even while they develop and release a brand new game that is honestly awesome content once again!

If over these long years you have played and loved POE 1 and everything these guys have developed for us, now is the time to show them some support and understanding while they come to grips with how to juggle these two games simultaneously.

Since the release of POE 1 GGG have shown nothing but competence and great work ethic, giving the whole ARPG genre a new standard of content delivery that can hardly be matched by other companies.

I for one fully trust and expect them to find their way back to delivering content for both games in the same sort of time frame they have always done for POE 1.

Good luck GGG.


Just goes to show how fickle some people are, running for the hills at the first sign of trouble. It sounds like they expect GGG to work personally for their own enjoyment without seeing the bigger picture.
Sadly the promise of supporting and developing both games in parallel cannot exist, you would need to include more developers to the team and have them as a flexi group that can assist with either project.
Certainly it is dissapointing.
I liked POE, I played it once a year maybe but it was the game I would fire up if I was going through a difficult time especially (from college to irl problems etc) it would definately help, it is sad to see this happen to it but no surprise.
I hope they figure this out.
Time to change game, cu guys
This is Baaaaaad!!!!

As someone who played poe 2 and killed the uber bosses on +4, the game sucks, it really does, maybe for casual fools it doesn't but for anyone that played poe1 on a semi-high level it does.

i see the people who talk in favour of ggg or poe 2 mainly have accounts that either have no challenges, or characters that are basically completely worthless and never even got to the true endgame of poe1, so they like poe2 because it suits their simple brains, i understand that.

still, GGG has messed up, this is like them admitting that they are gonna sunset the game that has financed their new golden goose which is hated by the actual fanbase that supported poe1.

and when i talk about poe 1 endgame i talk about builds like this:

not average joe with their shitty barely able to run t16 builds running on hopes and dreams like we dreamt of having poe 1 continue.

all in all this is probably the most disappointing failure in judgment from GGG ever and is equivalent to Blizzard.
RETURN POE 1

You compare a decade old development project to a newly hatched one.
Remember BETA POE1? No? Figures.
