unless you are living under a rock
Every generic POE1 complaining thread over the past few months, and especially since this recent "announcement", seems to be from people living under those rocks.
You guys are speaking about a GGG that doesn't exist anymore. These threads read like many I saw on WoW or D3 forums like "omg why does blizz do X, Y, Z" which were oblivious to the fact that all big blizz decisions are made from the parent activision-blizzard company through MBA executive people who HATE videogames. Those videogames are simply a thing to abuse on a balance sheet to maximize profits.
Chris is gone in any capacity that you fondly remember. Jonathan, Mark, etc. are told what to do in terms of funneling development dollars, or their owners will find replacements who do.
If the MBA executive decision making types determine that funneling the vast majority of development dollars into MTX and supporter packs within an X month timeframe is the best move, you can bet it will happen.
To those who spent like $1000 or whatever in POE1 within the past year, congratulations you wasted $1000. Nothing you spent was used to improve your gameplay experience except a bit of dopamine for seeing your improved visuals the first few times.
Let this be a lesson for you to not become financially "invested" in ANY game going forward in the future, including POE2 if you are playing it. I wager that a lot of these "investors" are credit card heroes who can't actually afford the vast majority of "purchases" they have made for POE1 and/or POE2.
Ty I was having a hard time trying to remember where or how this all was too familiar for me, yeah, is exactly the same as blizzards forums back then.
People might think that in game purchases, mtx, are an investment, I have no idea how or why would they think that, but apparently they do.and we have guys like the one who replied above me, thinking poe1 vets are a special breed of gamers, because they are "loyal" hahaha, I mean I guess they have no idea this is how this kind of games work, you only come back to a new league, they are not special at all, everyone does the same.
Now the entitlement, we "fund" this game is hilarious, so I can say I am part of the reason why Fortnite is successful cause I gifted 8 friend the game when it was released and it was pay to play? Hahahah

You're aware PoE1 vets are the reason PoE2 exists right? Like you gotta be trolling.
and this is the kind of entitlement i'm talking about, poe1 vets are not above poe2 players in any way, supporting a game doesnt give you rights over such game or give you a sit on their table to decide what should they do.
Sry to break your bubble, but you are on the same level as someone who just recently joined their game with 0 money spent on it, not above, not below, the same
Ok so you are a poe2 fan but decided to come here in the poe1 section to shit on everybody and furthermore calling us entitled? WTF dude?

See the problem was that the main reason I supported the poe2 early access was because of my respect to GGG's integrity as a company and my love to their first game.
Now both of those things are about to go away and my support however meagre has ceased. Hope you enjoy the game you supported.

No suprise tho coming from the avarage poe2 player.

only deranged take is:

the reason both games exist is because devs created them. you claiming any credit for that is the same as me worshipping sun because without it it wouldn't happen neither. Better start with the virgin sacrifice when spring comes

Bottom line, it’s a toxic community filled with entitled nerds. No wonder GGG quit direct engagement with this community years ago. #bringbackbex
