PoE 1 will never die, they just got to fix their new money maker(PoE 2) first and expand their studio, until then we are on just maintainence mode.

ye... soon tm

poe1 has 1 week and after its left as is...

poe1 is fine, they just have to fix their goddamn server infrastructure. it's what, 3? 4? weeks after release, and I still getting random disconnects multiple times an hour, it's just not fun. I would love to play, but I can't in this state.

also the last communication from them is already a week ago again.

Their Skin Transfer consumables are bugged/unusable in Poe 2 since the new league launched, and they haven’t addressed this issue at all. They’re actually selling a microtransaction that doesn’t work. It’s an absolute disgrace at this point that GGG decided to put their transmog feature behind a paywall, when other rpg’s give it for free.

Because transmog is _cosmetic_ feature. Other games may give you transmog free but sell you levelups and power stuff.
This is the most fair way of GGG getting support money while not making the game Pay to win.

That doesn't mean they shouldn't fix the MTX - they should, or give you the money back if it doesn't work.

Thinking 'outside of the box' here.

What I would like to see is:

Something like the 'idea' of Boxing Day.

Turn the economy Upside Down.

Provide access to high level uniques and currency at lower levels.
And give the Divine Billionaires the beginner unizues and low level drops.

This could be just a special holiday, weekend, or a new league.
Maybe just an un-announced random day...

Give the casual players some love.

The RNG is geared to the highest level players.
Why not, level the playing field, once in a while.

Wouldn't it be great if players got a great unique early and it changed their plan. (Mercenaries did provide this possibility a little bit.)

Just a crazy idea for both POE 1 & 2.
