0.4.0c Hotfix 13

With all my sympathy and support for this game, as has been stated countless times before, the decision to introduce this hotfix was the worst possible choice that could have been made. I know it was a panic move to somehow address elephant in a room, but you could just disable league mechanic for several days to give it back in acceptable state later on.

I know you're aware that you killed the league (if this situation will persist) for many players that are not able to play for 5-10 hours a day to build their temple. Now not only they cannot continue, but the gap between players that abuse post-nerf temple and the rest is getting bigger every day and you literally wasted whole weekend for the latter that are discouraged to play this league at all after absolutely ill-considered patch.

Damage was dealt, but I really hope that you fix it ASAP, so players can again enjoy the best part of 0.4. Trust is something that's hard to gain and easy to lose. Firstly - the statement, a honest one. Secondly - an action, but make it sane.

From what I can gather, he commands the Siege Dancers from an Imperial Land Tank just outside of Rubicon. He's well protected, but with the right team, we can punch through those defenses, take this beast out, and break their grip on Freehold.”

Free my boy JICOCKLEES

I didn't expect to see a D1 reference but I welcome it

GGG nerfing this after it's been abused by so many is funny. I've never been happier that I skipped playing a league than I am right now. Makes me want to put PoE 2 off completely until it's actually released because I can't trust the developers to actually make decisions that respect my time.

It’s been over 36 hours and more than 3,500 comments since this hotfix was posted. The overwhelming majority of feedback expresses frustration with the change, particularly around the medallion locks, yet there has been no response, acknowledgment, or ownership of what many see as a poorly considered decision.

I keep checking back, hoping to see something—any indication that the concerns are being heard—but all we’ve gotten is silence.

GGG, please wake up and read the room. Your community is clearly unhappy, and in some cases outright disgusted.

At the very least, the decent thing to do would be to respond.

Bro, they don't care how the community reacts. They've done it, and you're just going to have to accept it. This has happened at least 5 times in my memory, and the result is complete disregard. What really annoys me is that they nerf the league under the guise of hotfixes, which are supposed to fix the game's bugs, which are numerous. Take, for example, the mobs that leave the room, preventing you from completing your room. or for example add a useful qol for medallions, so that it doesn't allow you to pick up a medallion if you have the maximum number of them. but no. we'll release a hotfix, and instead of useful fixes like fixing crashes on DirectX 12 12 times in half a day, we'll ruin the league by preventing people from playing normally and forcing them to overcome their limitations. as they say, they do it, but it's your shame.

The launch of a league is where they get the most money from people buying tabs and blind boxes. Afterwards they simply don't care if retention drops off as that means they get to cut server costs from less players. It's simple corporate greed.

Nothing will change until ppl eat what devs throw to them, only you make your choice. Steam online is barely below pre-hotfix state, now they see they can freely do whatever they want.

That's exactly what I said yesterday. If people keep playing then there is not a big issue and we are in the minority. Apparently all others are ok with it.

Exactly. Why does everyone complain and yet keep playing? It's a storm in a teacup.

If you want to make a statement, stop playing the game.

reverse it ffs don't u see all the negative outcome of this patch? fix it for 0.5, but give us possibility to create temples back wtf
