That's a lot of effort for MTX and you created a thread about the event even.

To digress this thread even more:

I've never been a fan of those long "I quit" threads. PoE has been a popular game for more than a decade. Of course your interest will go up and down. When you've played a game for many years, it's just natural to need some kind of push/draw to be sucked back in. GGG knows this of course, and we've heard the phrase "designed to be played forever" several times.

PoE wouldn't be NEAR where it is today without leagues adding content to suck people back in. Everyone who's unable to see that, usually have some kind of agenda.

So take a break. Take a hiatus. Temporary quit. It's all healthy, for both you and the game. And if you see something interesting in a future league, come back and try if you like to. No need to be so dramatical.

Maybe I'm just too old for this shit.

i think there is a problem with the over use of the spell tag.

why is bloodrage a spell?


i think they need to make poe2 first before theyre going to develop poe1 more but when they release poe2 they do need to look at this.

we just need more keywords.

the idea of no spells is right, why would most warriors cast 'spells'? its not thematically right. warhammers age of sigmar has sort of delt with this with more keywords, you have factions that dont use magic but why would something like blood rage need to be magic? they have prayers in that game now to open up a design space that makes thematic sense.

a warrior could use a warcry, pray to a deity for favour, make use of balms, ointments, drugs. theres plenty of ways you can make new keywords and move some stuff over from spells. why isnt bloodrage some kind of substance you consume? they have blood oil in malazan that sends people into a rage, big warriors use it, its not a spell its a substance.


i get why stuff was lumped into spells but when they made warcry a seperate tag it opened up that space for passives, items, it became more interesting.




they just need to drill down into it a bit more. i think the no spell thing is actually thematically rly cool but they havent done the groundwork to make it math out in the game.

Are you sure?

Rhetorical.

i make a lot of new threads. i have a lot of passion for a lot of things.

i would be lying if i were to say completely cut off poe1.

i do like seeing what ggg has instore for it, i ll also admit sometimes i lament "why wasnt this implemented 5 years ago" especially with the melee buff. as for the current mtx, it just requires you to get to level 80.

lol i remember back in open beta i got to 83 doing dock runs.

80 really is peanuts even with a 4/5 link. i m more than capable of even getting to maps using shitty magic and normal equipment from campaign just for proper sockets/links.

if we're being all honest, i would have prefered if the reward was at level 70 tho.

in anycase. who knows. i might play longer than expected if the ascendancies give me huge enough power.
