Being quite new to Path of Exile I am fortunate that I have plenty of undiscovered content to keep me engaged while the developers do their best to get their team restructured, so that they can prevent fires instead of putting them out. Given the free to play structure of the franchise it's clear to me that their decision to shift all focus to PoE 2 is a decision made for the people that play it, and not made with some type of money grubbing mentality. The team is human and that's awesome, lol. Sometimes it's difficult to predict exactly how the cookie will crumble. I know a lot of the PoE diehards are not pleased, but I believe the dev team is dedicated and our patience will be rewarded with their gratitude. Thanks GGG.

That's easy to say as a new player. Imagine supporting and funding the development of PoE2 for years with the promise that the game we love will not be affected and still be supported and then they do a rug pull and say "oh we haven't even touched PoE1 yet because the PoE2 players are unhappy with an EA having bugs."
Personally this lying and prioritizing has made my decision clear to not support GGG anymore from this point on. This could have been prevented by delaying PoE2 and sternly letting the PoE1 team do its thing with an ironclad rule of not pulling them toward PoE2 even if they are needed. But we can clearly see where the priority is and that is with the short term money of selling the EA. So I disagree with your statement that our patience will be rewarded, it will simply be abused for more monetary gain.

NICE

the beginning of the end

In a way I'm glad their support sucks so bad that 62 days and they still can't figure out how to unlink my steam account so I can buy EA for PoE2. Since they want to treat the players that way, they don't have to worry about ever getting any of my money.

Very deceiving, to say the least. Why not release an event, like previously done in similar scenarios?

Make Krangled passive trees, unique per account, with unlimited respec points.
Every "favorite map slot" and Ascendancy point unlocked also allows to swap 2 small passives in the tree. Every voidstone allows to swap either 1 big passive or 2 small.

It's an afternoon of work for an experienced dev, and would make so many of us satisfied until we have a real league...

What a Horrible message, quite pathetic honestly.

Yeah, I'm not spending a single cent until you're delivering on PoE 1 again...

This is fucking disappointing. I didn't even think PoE 2 was fun.

3.26 better be fucking good once you release it.

3.26 cannot be anything special because of the two words Jonathan said.. they havent even BEGUN working on it..
I had hopes they had made some insane changes, nutty endgame refresh, new pinnacle bosses, WASD movement or something.. maybe even POE1 remade in POE2 engine/graphics..

3.26 is gonna be a mid rushed league.

All im hoping is they will remake POE with POE2 engine because MAN POE1 would look insane and play insane if it was on POE2 graphics.

PoE2 is built on the same engine as PoE1.

lol. The game engine isn't different, they just keep building on the same spaghetti code from the first game, with improved, higher res models and skeletons.

PoE2 is a lazy cash grab, and its sickening they abandoned their flagship title for short term monetary gain.

I ain't coming back ever because of this. They might as well be Blizzard at this point, just without the ability to make polished games.

Damn, I think I still prefer PoE a tiny bit over PoE 2, but you guys still put other multi billion dollar studios to shame so keep it up! Urah!

Poe2 0.2 comes out in weeks/months. Then they start thinking about maybe doing Poe1 3.26. Then it takes another few months of maybe doing it. So Q2 or Q3 at the earliest. And they really can't even put up an old league or reset until then? After Pohx league hit the cap of 20k in just a day? Really?
