Tencent literally ruined league of legends from A to Z since they bought it , so goodbye exiles it was a nice game.

ITT: persons with no idea of how investments work post unfounded criticisms about decisions which never even killed the game yet, please tell me more about how the golden goose died when it's still alive and well at present. I'm amazed at how much paranoia, resentment, and general vitriol gets splashed out every which way whenever anything changes. It's almost like you people would prefer to see one of the greatest success stories in gaming die because of your own selfish ideas about how things ought to be rather than continue to support its growth.

When they said 80% of profits, it was after expenses, you're still paying the GGG employees through your support and funding the continued development of this game. I might not have been able to play for a good while because of RL issues, but I was planning to come back for incursion when it hits. Tencent wont gobble up your $10 or your $400, it'll just take a bit as return on an investment, which is sort of how your average business works. So save the "china numba wan" shit for when something actually goes wrong instead of infuriating the rest of us ordinary people with inflexible retardo stances.

You sir need to be quoted on every page, ignorance is dominant here, and we, the sane, need to fight against it !

If you think your smarmy, dismissive and disdainful attitude is going to convince me to buy more supporter packs, you are wrong. In fact, you have nearly single highhandedly convinced me to stop spending money all together. For reference, I've dumped 80.00(USD) a month into PoE for more than a year. I've spent as much on this game as I spent in a decade playing Dark Age of Camelot.

I've paid for the right to speak out when I dislike the direction the game is going in. GGG is free to - and will - ignore me. But I'll squeak just the same. I've seen this sort of disaster replay too many times before, with the same canned "everything is fine, we retain creative control" PR spin to just sit on my hands, and continue to throw money an my time into something that might be about to head down faster than an express escalator to hell.

Every investor need to maximize his investment. So maybe now they are not talking to GGG job, but on every occasion, with less failure, they will. Actually question is why GGG needed investor? The only what we can do is to hope, GGG will never change their statements about gameplay and pricing.
