Im not playing Poe2

I'm still playing POE 1 in a standard league.

The real problem with rolldodge design its that it's anti-thesis of one of PoE core pillar design where Chris have stated somewhere that it's were made to "play while watching TV"

It's the hands-off and relaxing nature of PoE that drew me and many other people in.

This has been getting removed from PoE1 too, its like they're outright abandoning the concept. I remember PoE being way more open to relaxed style with Reckoning and Warcries being instant, etc.

Now it feels more restrictive to me/removing options for that playstyle down to things that I don't enjoy.

In general though I just think people need to be louder about disliking the design direction and decision making of both games. Not to be jerks but so that both the devs get some wins and players can be happy with the products.

Right now I feel like feedback is largely ignored and they're brushing off criticisms too much. Easy example is doing nothing about loot drop rates for mobs on maps, endless posts, and from the devs nothing but crickets.

Its not an unreasonable expectation for communication to exist on the matter.

3.15 they nerfed everything from player power level to buffing Nemesis monsters to align with PoE2 "meaningful combat" vision.

3.16 they killed all instant spell / skills that could be put on left click so that we have to manually press them, also to align with PoE2 "meaningful combat" vision.

After that, leagues after leagues we got nerfs to loot and low quality leagues so they can allocate more resource to develope their favourite child - PoE2.

3.25 took literally 1 year to come out.

3.26 we "accidentally" have fun end game with actual risk-reward scale, the harder the content is, the better the reward.

3.27 GGG from PoE2 said nope. Cant let PoE1 players having TOO MUCH FUN, right? then quadruple nerfed loots from all aspects: ground loot, scarabs, high-end strategies.


PoE1 suffers from PoE2 nonsensical vision and resource hoarding. PoE2's dev team and it's own vision is actively killing PoE1 at this point.

And I have been saying this for years. Atleast since Heist and it's red flag of half-baked contents & evidence of cut content.

Recently even Reddit is waking up to this fact.

I miss Chris Wilson :( This Jonathan dude really hates poe

I miss him too. Can't wait for "Path of Exile spiritual successor" made by Chris Wilson himself. None of these Soulsborn Rollslop sh-t.
