this new patch, ggg's behavior and the reactions here from some sheeple reminds me exactly on blizz/d3 just right before the playerbase shrinked massively and players left to play other games like poe, so just think about it :)

I dont think it will shrink even a bit. A ton of new players will come from Steam.
Blizzard sucks, Jay Wilson sucked. Blizzard North was the last good Diablo dev. team.
D3 doesnt even have a quarter of excellent ideas/mechanics this game has.

are you talking about the good ideas and mechanics ggg just trashed with this patch or previous patches? or their balancing attempt with op legacy items which are still in the game for example?

i don't think so, there are surely some blind followers without a demand on consistency but not in such huge masses as you might think, but i still hope ggg regains sanity since i loved to play poe for a long time but if not then not, i can surely live with it :)

Its always the same way - people are scared of new things. There will be some +/- in new patch but cmon this game is still for free. Dont complain about the patch before release just wait and see what the game will be like. If you want to leave do it nobody force you to stay here. Just dont act like emos. There is so much bla bla bla most of you are addicted to poe so you will still play. I see a big opportunity to highball my items way more then i did before!! :D Peace

P.S first person on 200 flame page will get 1 ex free winner pm me on forum. Gl keep the spamm going on - nobody cares :D

nah people are fed up with chicanery, not more or less, you can still love chicanery but thats you then.

new patches are good if they're good and bad if they're bad, just because its new doesn't mean its automatically good that's a totally stupid assumption, playing this game long enough to know that this patch kills the game for most of the players here and this is not a prediction its a fact, just wait for it and see.


ps: save your ex if you're lucky you might be able to buy some character with it in game :)

What have they trashed? Auras? come on...you shouldn't be able to run 4-5-6 auras. They made them a lot stronger and it also has a lot bigger radius. You can build a good team if everyone is using different ones but that wont compensate for the monster hp scaling in groups and solo players "benefit" from that. Even bloodmagic got buffed, it has an aura keystone after it. Maybe legacy items are the one thing i dont like too, but who cares. Only a very small group of people will have them and only in standard. I played standard for a long time, then switched to HC(new league). I totally love it, a lot more than sc. And hey, you did not even saw the "reworked" uniques. If you think you must build a hp character around khaoms you lack creativity. Wait for the release man, don't complain until you tried the new "things".

oh auras no problem with that, even no problems with changing passives since it applies to everyone equally, but I've got massive problems with their so called balancing, but im tired to repeat it over and over, so feel free to read my recent posts and you might get the picture :)

I'm coming back because of this patch. I like the mix up and mandatory specs not being mandatory anymore. This is what was good about D2. You could play however you wanted to play.

I think people should wait and see before having a melt down.

Well you can't change things and satisfy ALL the players at once. There are things you don't like, i understand that. But there are a ton of stuff you did not even saw, you don't know yet if you like em or not. Changes are good and most of them are logical. Look at the early game what was it like 2-3 years ago. Is it better now? Sure it is. And it just keeps growing.
I have played D3 for almost 1000 hours, played Torchlight2 and many more. D3's difficulty was nerfed to a very casual level, because of whining 10year olds. It became a braindead game.
PoE is still the best arpg out there and my bet is that it will stay there for a long time.

Just watch the interview from GGG then you will understand your doubts http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_T9YtA1mRQ

and this is what I spoke about : solo players are getting a**raped once again. if they really want to force people to play in groups then they should fix the desyncs and fps drops beforehand, instead of making the problem worse first and then thinking about the consequences.

yeah some things are surely good, and some changes are surely acceptable even if it changes some aspects of the game as a whole but some things went out of hand and are totally unacceptable.

one thing is , they can change the game as much as they want as long as as everyone profits or get hurt from the changes equally , but there are profiteers (legacy etc.) and victims (surely ppl. like me), so they maybe balanced some aspects of the game but they also trampled equality on the other hand. this isn't a honest and unilateral balancing attempt in my book, or do you think that's a good thing?

but as i said this is just one thing among many other things.

played this game for months now, and i am one of the people who are been pulled back to almost there where i started a few months ago while others don't, and if you got a feeling that you wasted your time on something you'll get pissed like me too thats for sure, or you can ignore it but that wouldn't be me.

you can still say, hey that's the game that's the way how it rolls, then i'd like to counter with the fact that this game has been advertised as arpg and not as a friggin lottery where a company decides that your time is less worth then the time of others.


btw. nothing personal against you or such just my personal opinion versus the game :)
