I hope they could provide both games with quality content, kinda excited to try out PoE 2 in a couple of years. Looks promising. It's a new game for sure now! 3.13 Was the best league ever! 3.18 Rest in peace my beloved recombinators, I'm gonna miss you...

Man, there are a lot of people who didn't listen at all; they mentioned several times that the gameplay was over-tuned and slowed down intentionally to show off the new mechanics, gold will not be replacing currency items or trading, it will NOT be like ruthless mode. Pay attention before throwing a fit like a child. stop demanding art be the way you desire. If you don't like it make your own art, like they did, but if you realize that you don't have the capability to make a game like they did then maybe check yourself.

But in reality I don't believe they will give so much love to PoE1 as for PoE2 because from business perspective it doesn't make any sense. They will slowly but surely transition all the PoE players to PoE2 to finally keep developing only one game which is easier and more profitable. Especially since all the microtransactions are shared between the games but they potentially have double work to do (but in reality less as PoE1 will have way smaller resources allocated). So even if PoE1 will receive some expansions after PoE2 launch those will be worse, less interesting so just to say: 'hey guys see, PoE2 is so much better, come and play it'. It doesn't make sense to keep two games, they will try to push as many players as they can to PoE2 and offset the ones unhappy and leaving PoE for good with new registered players. The idea of keeping PoE1 is just a PR move, not a real thing they plan to do in a long run. I don't care if they keep supporting 1 or not. I just want an end of life plan. If they do decide to shut it down, I want them to release an offline version, I'll play alone, I just don't want to be completely unable to play it.

QQ I haven't been able to watch all of it. Where do they discuss gold? I saw gold drop in a playthrough and I'll admit seeing that worried me. Also isn't bitching about all the new mechanics the POE way anyway? They're just holding up tradition.	Posted by garthak#4525 on Jul 30, 2023, 12:36:25 PM Quote this Post

They mentioned in one of the q&a sessions that they want players to continue using currency orbs for trading and that gold was just for vendors. I get giving constructive feedback on a game you care about but this current trend of gamers demanding games be made to their specifications (not just poe) is embarrassing as a gamer. It's no different than people who want a painter to paint exactly what they want, well, that may not be what the painter was inspired to paint, so as a result you get a painting that was made with no inspiration and then you complain that it's not good enough. The reason poe is good is because it's a labor of love. To the people this will inevitably upset, your upset because you know I'm talking about you, so getting angry at me is sort of a self own, so thats fun.

QQ It's realy sade that you don't understand other peoples worries, when some one tell about ruthless, they don't mean it as core gameplay but rather play style. So far GGG showed us that they don't want ARGP gameplay that was in POE1, they want to include more 'dance around mobs\bosses' and thats looks more like SOUL-like game play. In my opinion: If I would like to play such style games I would go to Elden Ring or Monster Hunter: World and soo on, why should we have same 'dances around monsters' in POE2? That's what people don't like most in new POE2 vision, that GGG showed us.	Posted by Shakra#0102 on Jul 30, 2023, 1:41:22 PM Quote this Post
GGG made the worst decision possible (yes, again) to keep PoE 1 alive when its dying from playerbase and poor performance and optimization. Now players will get milked in 2 different games with poor content and more and more stuff added into the core. Diablo 2 > Diablo 1 > Diablo 4 > Diablo > Torchlight > Titan Quest > Grim Dawn > Diablo Immortal > Path of Exile 2 > Path of Exile.

i cant wait! i think the split of poe 1 and 2 is great, i always said poe 1 is such a good game (gameplay wise) but the storytelling was lackluster, with a hard reset going back (1000 years?) we can get a more welltought story. i hope any dev read this but even some of your devs said they dont wait for the npc to finish telling the story and just move on because they want to play, i do the same but some games give me the option to play the game while the audio of the town npc conversation keeps going, this would be such a nice feature ! i am so hyped and cant wait to play (beta) path of exile 2. stay sane exiles.

I'm just done with watching all of the streamed content and i had a blast! Kudos to every presentation, it was really felt that everyone was presenting something they deeply care about. Can't wait to try the poe2 beta. Is there already known how we get access? Wer nichts weiß, muss alles glauben.	Posted by Alrightythen#3384 on Jul 30, 2023, 3:38:13 PM Quote this Post
I really like the direction PoE2 is going, especially slowing everything down IGN: HarroHarbinger	Posted by Catharsis#3356 on Jul 30, 2023, 3:51:40 PM Quote this Post
