that said, i know what u mean and i sort of agree. tbh when they fucked with divines and exalts it destroyed a lot of long term wealth many of us had and i mentally just detached at that point. its sort of whatever, my mrs plays warhammer with her friends and it just reminded me that no matter what happens she always has her warhammer models, her rule books, 30 years from now she can put them on a table and play a version of the game she has books for that was released in 2018, or 2008, or 1998. i feel like its more worth while to put time into those sort of hobbies than computer games honestly.

I feel like this is so overlooked. I would love to play some older versions. In 1.0 balance was so different, that, at this point in time, it's an entirely different game that no one can play. I know it's less content, but I simply wish to experience how it was. Not to mention countless changes over the years that made builds nonviable and so on.

Well after searching for other games to play, after quite some time of mindlessly consuming this game. I finally understand how harmful this game has been for me. Don't get me wrong this game has a lot of content but there are way to many issues to count. And well instead of trying to address some of these issues, they would rather stamp out any form of dissent and criticism they receive. However the community in this game is possibly the worst part as most are just mindless consumers, with not much care to give about other people or opinions (just look at the guys screaming about their drops). Just mindless riders for people that do not give a damn about you.
But hey at the end of the day i don't have anything against anyone here since most are just trying to enjoy the only one thing they do.
After almost 10y that i was here.
Goodbye.

Oh yeah and if you want to get salty, i leave you with this.
There is no end of life plan for poe1.

Sometimes we just gotta realize when something becomes unhealthy.
Its completely logical to move away from something that you feel doesn't respect your time.

Sure trolls will troll you a bit, but there is a strong portion that will be coming to conclusions similiar to yours. The writing is on the wall for it with the way they're responding to all the dissent. You'll have survivorship bias occurring a bit, but for the most part PoE is on a course to be abandoned the second its base finds an alternative that respects their time.

The players are being loud and vocal, the Devs are not responding or addressing the concerns, the good will is being killed off and when you get to this point all that's needed is a place for them to go and they will.

I hope the devs kinda wake up and realize it.
But most people change because they have to not because they want to.
In games that point usually means its too late.
