1 year of no new league for mid "QOL" we didn't even ask for

Remember when TS was doomed? Like 4 or 5 league announcements in a row?

Cant wait for DD to be doomed. Not like the skill was OP for past... how old is PoE?

Love the Betrayal changes as I've always found it very much tedious to unlock all the crafting options when you needed them most, early into the league. Tho I must say, less interactions with beloved characters are somewhat of a downside IMO. Guess we'll see how that plays out.

Also love that we'll finally be able to roll conq/elder maps the same way it works for shaper guardians. Never really understood why that wasn't a thing.

Pausing the game, eh...whatever I guess? Might be a neat feature for the campaign when you constantly open the skill tree adding points, or having to suddenly AFK in maps. Not a bad thing I suppose.

That said, I'm a little skeptical about the lag-pause feature in regards to how exactly that's gonna play out. I don't want my game paused constantly over minor hiccups, be it on my side or server side (we all know how weird poe server routing can be, randomly shoving you into asian server locations or god knows where). Or having roommates killing the bandwidth by downloading questionable video material from various websites, suddenly giving you lagspikes. You know, the usual.

As for the complainers; We don't even know what the heck is coming our way. I'm a major complainer myself but holy cow that's like pissing in the wind.

Have you experienced it in PoE2?

I was really skeptical at first as well but its honestly one of the best features in PoE2 and they should be extremely proud of it IMO, It never paused for me with frequently flaky internet unless I was actually experiencing major packetloss and then I'd get booted out eventually and when I reconnected it had saved my character every time.

I'm sure it isn't quite that accurate but its a great feature that you don't need until you need it then its really great to have just to avoid that BS content loss/10% xp/HC rip when you lose control of your character due to crappy ISP.

I hard passed on PoE2 so I don't know what this feature looks like in action, but if it's the way you describe then I'm all for it!

people have asked for all these QoL features for years. Especially the Pause feature which was introduced as part of Ultimatum league 4 years ago.

I cant get behind this statement. Just saying without saying too much :)

Typical GGG thinking ( and knowing) that they can treat us like crap go through extreme, deserved, negativity, and then just put out teasers with mid things we didn't even ask for and then we all flock back to the game and then praise them like nothing happened.

I'm mad that this will work and i'm mad that the changes are mid. Sure, the full launch day may be pog but this betrayal teaser blows my mind. they could have made actual betrayal system better but they just removed jun from the game. I'm surprised we don't need to talk to her to open syndicate maps.

i'm glad i'm not playing poe anymore and gym maxxing, but poe keeps popping up everywhere when there's updates and it's stressing me out how much i wish we could just make a PS of 3.12 / 3.13 and not worry about poe 2 and whatever poe 1 is becoming.

Mark is trying to make poe better by fixing a lot of things that wasnt implemented due to game was made in 2005.
poe is 20 years old design and some features are just tedious left overs from that time.

Once poe is back on 3-4 month league schedule, we be fine
