Hi Exiles,

It would be SMART to give an example of what a comment of a 'needlessly negative nature' is exactly. Or do you mean that you want the community to stop moaning about the crapstorm you guys have created?

You guys don't have the best ethics when you put on probation the guy who started the thread about the Holten reset bug/ glitch, what-ever you want to call it, yet didn't do anything about those who abused it.

Don't you realise that people spend their precious time and effort to play this game, ESPECIALLY at this time of year. And to have a lot of progress taken away like this for NO good reason is very demoralising? With no way to get back to where they were previously is just terrible. But I guess it comes down to respect and which companies give it to their players.
For the first time in POE 2 there was something at endgame which was enjoyable to farm, with the possibility to scale it both in reward and difficulty. Of course the loot scaling was off the chart and the changes to loot were justified but it feels extremely disheartening to know that it’s almost impossible to progress the temple any further unless you have an already established chain.

It was already fairly difficult for the more casual gamer to achieve a large temple layout due to RNG issues and I personally lost at least 10 rooms in my chain due to the server stability issues on EU, but trying to build up now without being able to lock a tier 1/2 room means you take 1 step forward and 2 steps back.

The potential for the temple to be an interesting and rewarding mechanic is still there but unless the lock change is reverted the only real option is atziri rush which gets boring fairly quickly or randomly placing rooms and hoping for the best, this sucks unless you are one of the people with endless free time who managed to establish a full GG temple setup already.

With the lack of other exciting endgame options in POE 2 I would be surprised if there wasn’t a large drop off in player retention for the rest of 0.4. The thought of going back to the mapping system in its current state is just not an option for me, as it feels unrewarding unless you fully juice the maps and have only 1 portal, then you die to a dodge roll turned into sprint and lose the tablets and map rolls which gets extremely frustrating. At least in the temple if you died to performance or buggy gameplay you could respawn and death run back and continue where you left off, ideal for the more casual gamer.
I get it.

But to not reset everyone's Temples and leave the top 1% their Temples that are already juiced is insane.

In 12 years, this is the worst patch GGG.

Reset everyone Temples. Tonight or tomorrow.

From best ever season to worst in 1 patch............. and on a friday thanks alot~~~ i had to actually go outside now i got third Degree sun Burn thanks alot~~~~ again~
Let's say no one argues that the loot from the temple should have been cut. This is a fact that no one will argue with GGG. The only thing that really pisses me off is that the developer switched the mods on the rooms. What kind of bastards would do such a thing?
Today, you're switching mods on GolemWorks and Spymastery, and tomorrow, let's switch the effects of chaos and divine. And after tomorrow, we'll be leveling from 100 to 1. I understand that in the next league, when everyone is building the temple from scratch, mods will be changed. But to change the mods of the rooms when people are already starting to build temples, what kind of bastards would that be.
I'll remind you, someone said on the stream: "we won't take away people's fun in the middle of the league." Why would you do anything in the game now, if tomorrow the developer says that you're playing wrong, something will change. And he says, play like this now. Are we hamsters being experimented on?
Been away for 2 days because traveling, now I know I will not be going back. Holten was a novelty fad with no long term impact, people just spent couple hours more to build, but all good. Crystal changes were actually good, since 2 maps can be done as fast as holten if not faster, so restocking was nice. Loot nerf at the top end is welcome and does not impact anyone in the long run, so up to that point, it was actually all good.

But to remove the possibility for people to build an endgame temple is just so out of touch. What tf are platers supposed to progress towards? Slamming random rooms and praying they survive? Do we really need more rng in this casino, where everything is a lever pull already? People see the grinders and what they have, creators spend hundreds if not thousands of hours combined to put out guides, examples and content that showcases how the endgame looks, and you just throw it in the trash with one single line, not even a month into the league. It does not save the economy, it outright kills the league, because the main league mechanic we are supposed to engage with lost all endgame appeal and was brought to a level of 6mod map.

And for those crying about resetting temples - stop with this "my cow died so my neighbors has to die too". That does not fix your game experience. Them removing locks did.
Wen new patch or patch revert???!!!
Time spent = completely deleted by GGG. Love wasting time in my life. Thank you so much for this experience GGG.
Everyone,quit poe2 until its fully released. I have honestly lost all fsith in GGG after Chris left the company. There is no transparency,there is no communication between the devs and the players. Why should you invest money or time into their project that they dont make it for the player's sake,the person who is funding it. We just need to eait out for full release and not play until then untill all is fixed.
