"Harvest made the game too much fun so we can't keep it in long term."

I'll just repost this text I did and add that if it ever comes back it will be in a HUGE rework. TY GGG you really know what's best for the game. I was afraid you'd cave for the vocal new players asking for it to go core. They don't get it that long term easy and fun = fast lost of interest.
"
The only reason you have lvl restrictions on crafts is to avoid Harbour Bridge seed farming abuse. All this managing of having to craft expensive tanks/horitcracfting stations is to slow down the mechanic progress because once you hit 1-2 weeks in you're full of 5k tanks and infinite storage of crafts all you need to do is plant and map.(deepends on your play time)
If you people can't realize how INSANE and OP harvest crafts are and how dangerously close it makes POE to Diablo 3 you should not be saying it should go core at all. The crafts completely cut down character progress time to the point that you don't care about any item you find because it will never be better than crafting one from 0 using harvest crafts. Surely current crafting is garbage compared to this but it's definitely not the way, no one wants an ARPG that you can be done with a character in 1week, where everyone have the same items because it's that easy to craft them.
Chris said this was an experiment league in Baeclast, they want to rework itemization in POE 2 and this will weight heavily on that. But don't expect harvest to go core at all the way it is. It's too easy, too powerful.
If this league goes core as is, in every league within 2weeks time everyone would have perfect gear just like Diablo 3 and it won't be fun to play anymore.
And I say all that not because I'm the 0,01% player that farms hundreds of exalts every league. You can look up my past league characters, find me one that have >30ex item socketed, you won't because the way I play is I create 1 character with a decent non-meta skill that you can boss and map, do 36-40 challenges and be done with the league. If you look at my character this league it's the complete opposite, every single item socketed if you linked me every other league I'd say, that's fucking insane. Now I have 100ex sitting on my stash because I've crafted every single socketed item in my character and it's pointless trying to change anything. You can kill bosses and do anything having 0 skill and knowledge this league, your items will carry you. I have a guy in my guild that started playing this league and is already lvl 97... His FIRST character ever is 97! I had not lvled a character past 95 ever before this league with 5k hours+ played and I bet you the average player hasn't too. If you can't see how insane that is. And can't see what a boring ARPG you want POE to become please re think because you probably haven't played enough of this league to realize it yet.
I really love having the chance to experience what it's like to have 0.00001% gear, but that can't be the normal state of the game.
That's definitely not the POE I want at least.

Here's a thought that just came to mind. Why not make a new delve node with the Harvest mechanic, kill some mobs, open a cache, go in garden & do your thing. Can also potentially make the Cache spawn in maps as you have done with Delerium, i.e. The more content added into the map, the higher the prevalence of the seed Cache and Harvest content spawn?

Remove Harvest completely. Ty. I like you GGG but this league was a fail for me personally the first time ever. I even liked Synthesis a lot more.
Majority of players are just low IQ'ed, not realizing how Harvest league is/was destroying the core game completely:
Hunting for the good items by actually slaying monsters and not by rerolling 100 times some random items.

Back to Path of Currency when I can't even play the endgame without at least 20ex for a build to work.
Make PoE 1 offline mode when PoE 2 comes out.

lol why omg, this craft mechanic is one of best upgrade to the game, allows to medium player that don't gain much currency to craft their own good tier item.. and when finally you do something good, you will not put it in core...
great job.. as always good decision... wtf!

Guess I'm skipping the next league, then, because I'm definitely not going back to the old system after having fun with something this deterministic. Probably when it's reintroduced.
