Unpopular Opinion - Path of Exile Classic Mode

Can we get a version of Path of Exile 1 that is offline, maybe with some multiplayer support that could be $10 to $20 to buy? The version being 2.2.0, which has a good enough amount of content, but not enough power creep (like the ascendancy passives) to push away the old hardcore fan base.

The game was distinctly a good ARPG fix with no-nonsense. It had much smaller system requirements, so you could play on a laptop wherever. This could have come to light if PoE Moblle was a thing, had a PC port that was low requirements too. However it feels more fitting if a low system requirement version was just the ruthless version of PoE1 from the past.

Obviously only less than 5% of the currently playerbase would even want this, but sometimes I just want that old PoE1 fix. I'd stop playing for a few weeks then come back. The 2015 version of PoE1 is far more fun to me than existing versions of Grim Dawn, Titan Quest etcetera, so they don't compare as a substitute for what I'm looking for.

Probably will never happen but I would easily pay $30 just to have offline PoE1 to play, kept at low system requirements would be great for a fix while travelling etcetera.

You will never get a offline version of Path of Exile. It costs too much money and resources for GGG to even consider.

I doubt they'd be willing to consider it if you added a zero.

Maybe if you added two...
