GGG, Be Transparent: What’s Next for PoE 1

"
"
Late February came from the ZiggyD live Q and A when they said that a PoE1 3.26 announcement is planned for End of February.

That was said in the interview 2-3 weeks after they made the forum post of "late january"


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nAz85ZwUMko At 32:00 Jon clearly states "everyone is going to go back to PoE 1 again for the February League."
This is from the Live QnA session.

The forum post stated to expect a Late January announcement.


The reality is if they were going to do a live stream on twitch they announce it 2 weeks in advance. We haven't heard anything. Definitely not getting it this month.

Then an additional week for the launch. Every Sunday (there Monday) you don't hear anything it's +3 weeks away minimum.

Whats odd is I swore during that interview he kicked the can until february.
+100
Mark my words: GGG has either abandoned POE1 or it will switch to 2 bad leagues per year because they want us all to play poe2 (what btw. is not going to happen).
German saying: Schönheit und Funktionalität in Sekundenschnelle zu ruinieren, ist dem wahren Dilettanten keine Herausforderung!
torturo: "Though, I'm really concerned, knowing by practice the capabilities of the balance team."

I'm afraid so, it will be a clear sign that they want to abandon POE1, 2 leagues per year bad and/or recycled, that will be the obvious sign of what will happen, the worst possible fate for the best ARPG, POE2 will never be like POE1, unless they turn it into the new POE1, with all its mechanics, not in this kind of Diablo crappy version they have done, it's a shame what they are doing...
we will be lucky to get 1 poe league all year...and even poe2 seems abandoned. 2 months into ea and we had 1 small nothing patch..still no map tab or fragment tab. this is what happens when a company gets so rich that money is no loner a motivator for them to please their customers

I think it would be really fair if GGG made a statement about this topic. So far, our understanding has been that the development of PoE 1 wouldn’t be affected by the development of PoE 2.

We’ve now had a 6-month-long league, and there has been absolutely no information about 3.26 so far. It’s obvious that the statement above, unfortunately, couldn’t be upheld.

I’m worried that, until the full release, the development of PoE 2 will keep taking so many resources that PoE 1 won’t get any major updates for another year.

Please, GGG, be fair and don’t forget the player base that made everything possible for you. Don’t make false promises and make clear statements about the future of PoE 1 so we can at least know what to expect.


This.

Just this.
Affliction and Necropolis worst leagues ever. The current game design has slowly turned this game into a loot-shower fest, chase uniques are way too available; and obtaining chase items through stacked decks simply isn't fun. Rework stacked decks needed.
I say goodbye, and my group of almost 5k Spaniards, too, many of us are going back to WOW, we were there for more than 15 years, we got out of that drug, and you GGG push us to it again, we will not go back, we do not want more disappointments.

Thank you for these years of fun, I hope POE2 falls down, I wish it with all my heart, it is the one that left us without POE1, we only have resentment, thank you (づ ̄ 3 ̄)づ

This guy doesn't just ad populum, he ADS FUCKIN' POPULUM. This has got to be the world record for largest most spectacularly unbelievable "me and all my friends quit the game" overreach. I actually laughed out loud. Man you don't play around, over 4 thousand friends and he's networked so tightly with them he knows they are all leaving with him. Such unity and single mindedness of purpose.

I'm sure you and the fictional 4k will be sorely missed. They'll just have to figure out a way to replace that single supporter pack per 3 year clip that you (and they) are burning GGG's bottom line for.
Pandering to players who don't want consequences for their mistakes is a perfect description of what went fundamentally wrong with D3 and 4.
If they wanted mindless mobile game time waster gameplay they sure did make some perplexing choices and marketing statements for 6 fucking years.
