A Message to Path of Exile 1 Players
|
My 2C.
POE2 is a far worse game than POE1 (IMO as a 10k vet). Maybe it can be solved but I think it will take years. My guess is you have 4 months before POE1 players start to permanently pack up and move on to something else. Me and many others are 1 game at a time people and once we move it could take a long time before you see the player numbers of 3.25 again. Seriously, POE1 is the urgent game at the moment, POE2 cant be saved without major reworks but you have a great game in POE1. Dont put yourself in a position where you have 0 games... |

Makes sense, happens, at least you got a game to go too, could be pretty Dead like my old game mechwarrior online.

" In 2 years. In the meantime, it's a boring undercooked game that killed the best ARPG on the market. [/quote] Nothing is stopping you from playing PoE 1, my friend. [/quote] Exactly, they never said they were shutting down the servers; they just mentioned there would be a delay, and for many, it's like Armageddon. The reactions are excessive—they’ve been transparent. Yet, some adults are acting like children. Play PoE 2, test other builds in PoE 1 or 2… all you have to do is wait. They're struggling to manage two games at the same time because they’re not used to it—give them time. If they face too much pressure, they’ll end up rushing and ruining both games… It is a seasonal game and you know it. Or maybe you don't, and then why the fuck are you even speaking. I've played Settlers to 40/40. I've rerolled a few times. I've played Necro Settlers. I've even played Ruthless SSF until red maps. Trust me I HAVE played the game. I'd take any, literally ANY, reason to play the game rn. Be it a rehashed old league, some kind of lazy half assed event, ANYTHING. And yet the devs still don't deem it necessary or reasonable to put out some kind of economy reset. The biggest shame is, PoE2 is PoE1's best tutorial to date. If you made it to maps in PoE2 you would most certainly enjoy playing PoE1, so it'd even be good for the newer players to give it a shot and accomplish the original goal of having people ping-pong between both games. But alas...[/quote] |

So, all this could have been solved by delaying POE2 early acces to late 2025 - the date which actually would habe made more sense given how barebone this early access actually is.

poe 1: was i a good game?
death: yes, you were the best arpg in history, you can go in peace *they walk away together hand in hand poe 1 was going to be poe 2, they are two different games, the development of poe 2 will not affect poe 1, half a year without a league, we will continue with poe 1... I no longer trust |

Is it my imagination or was there the idea that POE 1 would be updated to become POE 2? The decision they made was wrong, I have always said it, POE is a good game in the wrong hands.
