Why did you stop playing the game?

Never did.

Get out of the campaign ffs and LEARN TO MAKE CURRENCY SO YOUR LIFE WILL BE EASIER.
I liked the promoted vision of meaningful combat and a tough game.

But the true vision has become clearer now. The team works on POE2 in a four month rhythm to increase profits. In the meantime, they push for more combo mechanics, more microtransactions and a fluid Korean/Chinese MMO inspired grind fest.

The missing balance helps to sell new classes and players are supposed to pick a different meta build every season. The missing endgame makes it pointless to play standard. There is not much choice on the player side.

It is fine. I hope the fans love it. But meta builds every 4 months with no endgame is not my kind cup of tea. Moving on to different games.

I recently got done with my Sorc so I started playing less, I'm usually done with a league after ~6 weeks.

I don't really understand people who think you can't read the forums while being active in-game...game is casual and doesn't require any engagement...so why not?

I play but have mixed thought on the game and GGG. The game has tons of potential but the devs seem to have no clue whats going on to me. Zero balance, constant 1 shots out of no where, no being able to see what the fuck is going on etc etc.

Personally i think Devs need to either start listening to the players a bit more. Their vision sucks.
my item dont exist that i "need"

can't really make it without homo omens, just too much rng (think i tried 30x this league, just gave up)

For some reason, I don't get the prompt to start the fate of vaal league. Game breaker for me.
1. I did everything I wanted. Made a few hundred divines farming Expedition, ran a few citadels. Didn't fight Arbi, but I already did that in 0.3.0, and rare tablet crafting doesn't interest me enough to take him out again.

2. Economy in 0.4.0 is a dumpsterfire, the Vaal temple is responsible, and GGG seems content to let that burn until 0.5.0. I hope they give it a proper nerf by next league. I played Expedition as much as I did, because it was the most consistent high paying strategy that I knew of which doesn't resort to gambling. If I don't do this, then most of my gear upgrades are nigh unaffordable due to how inflated the economy is.

3. I'd have stayed around longer for other builds, especially summoner, but that archetype is still pretty garbage. The amount of investment you need to tackle all endgame content is much higher than any other build, and can't perform anywhere close to as good as those on similar budgets.
PoE players: Our game has a wide diversity of builds.

Also PoE players: The [league mechanic] doesn't need to be nerfed, you just need to play a [current meta] build!

This. Keep grinding, people.

Players keep pulling in all kinds of directions. So definitely no, GGG should take 1 route and just follow it consistently.
