HOT TAKE. I am probably the only person in the community who is not excited for 3.26

I kinda like mercenaries as a new game mechanic, - at least something interesting in a long time.

However the game as a whole became not my cup of tea: in 2021 I have added this forum signature:
"PoE nowadays looks more and more like a fan-made fork server with tons of custom weird experimental stuff rather than original game with carefully thought out balance brough live to players."

and since that times, situation with the game became even worse, -just an endless flood of various league mechanics, items, currencies, skills, effects, etc etc.. Ballance was lost long time ago, understanding whats going on was lost long time ago, ability to follow the changes and game possibilities - was lost a long time ago..
That is why i prefer PoE2 WAY more than PoE1 and I wish GGG rather focus their efforts on PoE2 and also stop listening whining PoE1 players, making the game easier and easier.
