Bestiary as a Core Game Mechanic

Bestiary League is a failed league. Wrong concepts, complicated mechanic, nothing worth to maintain in the core game.

I always say ... It's time for GGG to start making another game. In PoE the passive three is a proof that the game concepts are failing!

In my opinion of course. The addicteds will think otherwise.
GGG are good developers. This proves it.

They recognized that Bestiary was a failure. It has nothing to do with the story of Wraeclast, and the mechanics were barely tolerable at best and absolutely broken at worst. This is without any doubt or argument the most broken league in terms of poor quality-assurance testing and rampant bugs, many of which were fixed late, and some of which persist even today.

As much as some people may like capturing beasts and hate other aspects of the game, Bestiary was still the biggest failure as a league to date.

The crafting results and inputs would need constant balancing and iteration to remain relevant.

Prophecy says "Hi".
There is only one way to put it: Bestiary was complete shit. Good Riddance. 100% honest right now I would have uninstalled if it made it to the core. Now I can look forward to the next league.

Also it is quite entertaining reading all the posts of the whiners here doing the exact same thing they are complaining about : whining. You think it was people that you call the "vocal minority" who complained on reddit and thus this is why ggg is not making bestiary core? The reality is the silent majority who didn't even bother getting past mervill because the league is terrible are the ones you can blame. Lowest player retention of all time in a league. Lowest mtx sales of all time in a league ect.

This is the worst received league in the history of PoE and if you are sorry to see it go than you are the minority, not the other way around. And if you bought a bestiary supporter pack and supported this dog shit league than you should be ashamed of yourself.
This is a terrible decision. There are so many aspects of beastiary that SHOULD make it into the main league. The aspects were a fantastic addition and the crafting system was good. GGG should find a way to bring these to the base game.
What abuot the uniques? Can we keep those at least? They are cool and powerful in a different way.

I'm going to miss Einhar though:I hope the team finds some way to reintegrate him.
Thank you. I know you are going to get a lot of negative comments about not keeping bestiary; but I'm not the only one who felt it didn't fit with the game and really hoped it wouldn't be added long term.

Frankly I started a bestiary character early on and almost immediately deleted it. I've actually spent the last few months playing hard core SSF STANDARD league by choice; with NEW characters!
