They have the time to design a whole grenade launcher but can't design a sword or an axe?

We just need to accept that GGG hates the left side of the tree. Armor is crap and still has movement penalty, it is missing 3 of it's weapon types which is a choice given PoE2 was meant to address melee, and mace always gets hit with attack speed downsides just for shits and giggles.

Don't worry, you ll see bazooka axes and ak-47 swords.

The grenade launcher unique + base type isnt even close to being equivalent to designing a whole new set of skills for a weapon type, in terms of development effort.

Why i have the sense it will be like all Uniques....trash!

You will invest serious money to bring it in an acceptable damage point and you'll eventually realise that is exactly the same as +7 gear level weapons....

Trueeeeeeeeeee

You guys are so pessimistic lol. How can you not be excited to shoot an m32 grenade launcher at monsters?

Also I've spent more than 1k on this game over a decade and I've already got my money's worth.

They could turn PoE into a mobile gatcha game tomorrow and I'd be disappointed but I wouldn't act like I'm owed a refund or anything. I usually don't buy supporter packs in anticipation of content, only buy points as I want them or if I want the armour and I know I'm gonna use the points eventually.

And I mean, it's a supporter pack, not a developer-obligation pack... Maybe some people here are a bit misled about the nature of the transaction...
