Fix the Endgame!

At the beginning of December I created a post saying that the endgame problems would kill the game, now I'm here just a month later returning to the game that had a variable base between 200,000~300,000 and now has less than 80,000.

When are GGG going to realize that the game's endgame is lousy and it won't survive in the long-run? I don't want to have my time and money invested in this game go to waste due to incompetence! Fix this damn endgame, remove the bots that ruin the economy and find a way for the endgame not to be what it currently is, a non-rewarding gacha.

Being quite honest I'm thinking about abandoning this sinking ship and going back to POE 1 since the devs seem to live in a bubble ignoring the community and thinking everything is wonderful. A game called Concord died due to toxic positivity and arrogance exactly like its happening in here, think about it.

They have said multiple times and directly without mincing words that the endgame was a problem in live interviews and that has been there primary focus. I will agree that the botting, price fixing and scamming from the lack of an AH is pretty soul-crushing though. Way too many people treating the economy like an esport which is odd this late into the league considering we know the currency will mean nothing come end of March/Mid-April with the economy reset.

'considering we know the currency will mean nothing come end of March/Mid-April with the economy reset.'

Because of what? Will they create a new league? It won't work. The scammers will create new characters there and continue. The only viable solution is ban all the scammers.

I was very lucky to start early and build a character with reasonable prices, but today I can't because creating a new character and reaching the level/equip of my main will require years of grinding since Divine is worth nothing.
