I mean granted D4 is for casuals and is just a bad game and has far less twitch views because of that.

I saw a YT short today that summed up D4 pretty accurately:

Basically, D4 is great if you don't want to think about the game you're playing, or care about the game you're playing, but even in its current state PoE2 is a better game.

That said, I'm choosing to see the current forum fire as evidence of a passionate player base, and I'm fair certain that GGG would rather have passionate players, however salty they may be, rather than apathetic ones. As would I, for all that it can make the forum an occasionally unpleasant experience.

Stay sane, exiles! We'll all get through this.

"We"?
We're going to play another game. And not have to put up with a developer worse than Blizzard.
PoE2 will soon die like PoE1, and it's all because of the GGG devs who are extremely lazy. They had more than a month off right after releasing "the game of their lives", and they come back with a big patch that doesn't solve any serious endgame problems, hard crashes on PCs and no new content.

We're getting the hell out of this game, and never giving money to GGG again, that's for sure.

His use of the word "we" is a lot more reasonable than yours. Unless you want to show us your data where you polled the POE2 playerbase and then they all offered you the job of "head spokesman".

Otherwise speak for yourself, its pretty reasonable to assume "we'll" get over the current forum deluge of D4 refugees who are angry at POE2 because D4 is so bad they'd rather post about POE2's problems not being fixed fast enough than go and try to salvage that porta potty fire.

POE2 in month 2 of a paid beta/EA is pulling numbers comparable to any POE1 league ever, and is doubling up on twitch viewers over D4 which JUST RELEASED A SEASON.

And you're hear trying to say that because you personally don't like it, its going to die... any day now I guess lol...

Lmao no that's "you" my guy, the rest of us are going to enjoy a game that's 100x better than D4 could ever dream to be and give the developers time to work their magic. This is an early access game, let them cook and get this out the door. Go outside and enjoy life if you have nothing else to do but complain on the forums.

I m not follower of streamers but due to POE2 check on youtube , now i see POE2 streamers either playing D4 or other games.

I played POE1 too like 2 years but when i reached end game i m suprised. Because every end game mech is same with POE1.

Still want to play but stuttering / crashes etc i only spend like 1 hour a day now.

May be i can play more if i had more stable game on running my rig. I dont want to hard lock PC often.

They should keep balancing the game while it's in EA state then just do their every 3 months balance once it's full release.

I'M SICK OF LIES, 1 YEAR SETTLERS LEAGUE IS WHAT I THINK THIS WILL BE, GGG JUST DON'T CARE ABOUT THEIR ORIGINAL GAME, BUT DON'T FORGET POE1 IS THE REASON WHY POE2 EXISTS

I have to say that I appreciate the fact that Johnatan admitted they fucked up big time.


So... They will work on PoE 1 new league after PoE2 0.2.0 buuuuut when it is going to happen? It seems to me we are talking about it in months terms.

Waiting for a bigger patch for PoE2 for months??? naaah man i'm outta here.

Exacly my feelings, first content patch of poe2 supposed to be come out "very very very soon after EA launch" according to Jonathan in his interviews. Know we see that was a lie. We are going to be waiting like 3-4 months for a first content patch. I'm sorry i'm not going to wait, and if the dates are close to MH WILDS launch which is the most anticipated release of all time after gta 6 for both asia and west, nobody going back to poe2. I rather play MH Wilds and enjoy 40 times more even tho i love poe2 too much as well. Not gonna happen, I'll stick with MH Wilds for a long time.

I was expecting to play poe2 early feb tbh that would be a good time for me until mh wilds, but damn looks like we are months away. They are literally giving us no patches for a BRAND NEW GAME, telling us to wait for months now is something i have never seen before.

admitted? they knew for months and waited until last second, they absolutely had to adress this issue and did so in the last possible moment

I mean the vibes im getting right now after 2 months is NO MANS SKY where Hello Games just fuckin dissapeared into thin air.
Before launch, interview with anybody and everybody almost daily.. launch. Vanished.

I was expecting MUCH MUCH more from GGG with POE2. Weekly balance patches, maybe even monthly content adds.. but what we got? SILENCE.

Considering where No Man's Sky ended up in terms of long term improvements and the state it's in now? I don't think this example makes the point you seem to think it does, since that game is a perfect example of "getting your head down and working is a more productive use of time than reading endless complaining on social media."

At this point, the problems are pretty well known. There isn't much more to say if they've already decided what they're going to do about it (or not).

GGGs philosophy of not doing balance patches mid league in this EA is a weird one... What's the problem with balancing without "economy reset"? Sure few players would be whining for a bit that they invested in things that are now nerfed, who cares tho? The whiners would soon find out it's for the better.

Balance patches would freshen up the meta, keep people occupied with finding new stuff, and the economy would have some shake up as well. Some players migh create new characters to get the new "best build" etc. etc.

Balancing things here and there every ~3 weeks would make the wait for a bigger update more enjoyable, and would allow players to constantly test stuff and see how much of an impact certain changes have on the game.
