A Message to Path of Exile 1 Players
|
Everyone here is absolutely insane to be reacting the way they are.
" EverQuest literally had the same problem when they released EQ2. This isn't new. You guys are absolutely reckless to write as you do for FREE (minus poe2 EA) games. Grow up. Acting like as if you've been stabbed in the back for your 12 years of play(devotion) time ripped from your hands as if none of it was worth a cent. Play the game or don't, but please have more respect for the amount of man hours GGG has devoted to make enjoyable games for you, the player. People make mistakes, it happens, they don't have all the developers or staff in the world. Good grief. You guys are absolutely spoiled for the amount of content and years of development time PoE1 had. Acting like it had all of this out of the woodworks. Holy moly yall would've complained if PoE1 was released today with the amount of content it originally had. You should all be ashamed of yourselves.

Man imagine the amazing leagues we could've had if poe2 never existed. Haven't even started working on 3.26 lol

massive L
you guys said the two games will co-exist you guys said poe will not be affected by poe2 really sad news also the radio silence till the very last 2 days of january was just terrible, specially cuz 3.26 is not a week away (according to jonathan) but prolly 2+ months away |

Take the time no rush and thank you for your amazing work. There are plenty of others games on my list to play like Baldurs Gate 3, Torment, ... Good luck.

This is already 70+ pages deep so I know nobody, least of all anyone from GGG, will read this but man this just sucks. I don't really have anything constructive or new to say, you misled your supporters and people will remember that.
I definitely won't be supporting the company any further until when/if poe1 is treated as an actual priority again. But even then... I just don't think I can trust you to keep that promise anymore. |

"The risk We took was calculated... but man, are we bad at math..." That's what I got from that video.

" Bro, you act like they're doing this as a charity, and no one has devoted mad time and money into the game. You're calling people out for being deeply passionate, whilst defending one of the top five richest corporations in the world... it's kind of insane. |

Wow, as a player new to GGG, this response is so refreshingly candid. Honesty and straightforwardness from the person in charge... don't see this often in gaming lately.

Unsurprising though utterly disappointing, PoE2 being the golden goose getting more dev time is understandable but a let down none the less, the game also isnt good enough imo to spend more than the 40ish hours that i have on it. After more than half a decade of main-ing PoE it might be time to move onto a new title. Bittersweet, but at least settlers was hell of league to sail into the sunset with.

While i enjoy poe2 more than poe1 and eagerly await for new class release... Poe2 should not be put first. Its an early access, everyone with 3 or more brain cells knows that the "new player" hype will die fast and fresh players love is fragile. As a game, you are standing on poe1 veterans shoulders, and should put them first. Not a fancy shmancy new era poe2. As many others, i do ask to reconsider and to release 3.26(1) consisting of old combination of leages or something so your major supporters could do what they love the most.
Poe2 demands too much time and recources. It already consumed a lot of it. Please come back to poe1, before fixing poe2. P.S. poe2 campaign was fun, but late game suffers from the same cancerous thing as poe1- 1button screen clearing smashes 💩 and i have lost hope that it will be any different on full release |
