i always find it weird.

poe1 lovers = poe1 is dead because no new temp leagues

while poe1 is in the best state the game has ever been

poe2 lovers = poe2 is dead coz nothing new for 3 months!

while poe2 is still in EA



ya it really does suck that POE1 hasn't had a new league and it will be an entire year before another one happens since settlers.

It really sucks for those of us who don't like any other games and it's been the one game that we still enjoy playing because there's just nothing good anymore

i can understand your pain.

but then again i m a standard league enjoyer. i come from the time where temp leagues never did exist.

if i m being honest, you have to admit theres some little amount of entitlement to feel that GGG owes you new temp leagues.

i view it as more of a transactional thing. ggg makes a new temp league, they get player retention in return.

its really sad tho. standard players have had GGG's back for the longest time while the ones that GGG caters to are the ones lashing out at them.

It's just not where the volumes are, as a society we never focus on the minorities. Business is no different, it's like ruthless players... they know there are people out there who are keen for it, just hundreds and thousands more are keen for temp leagues to be released.
Which has been the expectation that GGG has set for it's players, because it's what they've been doing for years and thus creates this expectation that we will always get them because it's what the majority come back for.

yeah. thats really understandable.

as a standard player having standard be neglected and in fact disrespected by GGG, my response to seeing all the neglect temp leaguers are getting:

first time? meme.gif

then again i m at the point i no longer care too much about poe1. i've already moved on to different games.

poe2 is promising but i m not confident ggg would push poe2 in the direction i would prefer. i m waiting for the poe2 announcement to be made but with minimal hype.

POE2 is dying but it's not dead yet. New patch will resurrect it, like Jesus.


Lol.. Here is hoping. But so far it isn't much on offer for the update.

I am a Standard player also and I do like PoE2.
But doesn't it really feel like a reskin of PoE1 in many ways ?
Even some of the monsters are the same I think.
i am the only of a group of 6 friends that is left ...

and i am not playing just checking this forum sometimes....

none of these 5 guys will ever return to poe2...

Funny part is I am not a standard player. I really did try HC at first.
Then I saw what melee was like.

I do not play range.. I dont like it. But I had too.
SO i went SC.

But the game is lacking.. Early access paid beta test what ever you want to call it. There is a lot lacking from a update point of view.
I am on the forums right now... But that has a time limit. I think if the update on the 27th isn't worth it. Then yeah.. PoE 2 for me is completely dead.
Well on the plus side I got a Hoodie and Tshirt in the mail today.

Had fun playing the game and was still actively playing when my power cable (Nvidia) took a dump. Got that fixed but haven't been back in game. Waiting for a big update and/or some other classes to come in.

I don't really find it shocking that player numbers have dropped off.
wait for the bounce and drop after the patch to see how many people are gone for good.
