If you guys think that they care about locks or w/e problem you are having right now you are mistaken. For them the league is over since hype is gone and their favorite streamers are playing poe 1 event or other games. Devs also work on poe 1 new league.

It's actually kinda funny how they handled the whole league. Why do you think it took them almost 3 weeks to fix the loot from temple. People were watching streamers building their temple and getting a sh..tone of loot. This created a hype + new people hopped in because of this mechanic and when the hype started fading and the average gamer almost completed their temples "Hey guys we nerfed temple loot have fun + no more locks if not t3 room." People and especially streamers criticized GGG for this so they reverse the lock mechanic to work on low tier rooms too. (because GGG mostly cares about what streamers say). After a week or 2 of this fiesta shadow nerf on locks.


4 weeks of constantly farming my temple last 4 runs had 1 lock per run. RIP rooms and not in the mood to fix it again. Spymasters have more chance to drop you any other medallion than lock kinda kekw moment.

At least i had fun with 3 different builds. Will wait for poe 1 new league and play again in 0.5. Peace out

Yes, even though there are still 2 months until the end of the 0.4 league, the league is dead, just look at the statistics of online players in 24 hours.
GGG has changed incredibly for the worse, they don't care about the feedback of ordinary players, only streamers listen.
At the end of March/April 2026, a new expansion to D4 is coming out, so GGG will have a very difficult time.
As I already wrote, if there is only one team of developers who work on both POE1 and POE2, then the 1.0 final version of POE2 will not be released this year.
For more than a year, POE2 in EA has not brought any fundamental changes for the better, I would say that it is getting worse and worse.
And I will say it openly here, feel free to let GGG delete it, because everyone is fighting for the truth:
As long as players keep buying (microtranslations, skins, effects, etc.), GGG will not try to improve anything.
They can't even fix important bugs in the game after more than a year, I play as a Werewolf and I jump badly, I get into a wall or a pillar and I spin around there, those deaths and hours spent, I'm sick of it, there's still something wrong with the game, because I've been playing it since December 2024.
But this time I'll skip 0.5.
That's right, in both PoE 1 and PoE 2, the PoE 1 season lasted a month, and they've already released the PoE 2 season, which was one blunder after another.

As mentioned above, they only stay alive because of streaming, not to mention they're privileged.

But with any other game, they're only thinking about selling skins. Because of that, of course they'll release seasons and leagues ahead of schedule so that suckers will buy skins. The more they buy, the worse the game becomes, they're only thinking about money.

POE2 will be in EA for at least 1 more year, even though when POE2 EA launched they said something about 6 months before full release?? KEKW we all knew that was a lie but anyways.

About the micro transactions you stated, of course they care about that. Don't forget that GGG is owned by Tencent and we all know Tencent cares about skin sales. I don't care that much about skins but when you release new skins before fixing bugs that's a red flag.

I kinda miss Chris ngl but ma boy cashed out early because he kinda knew where all of this was going and he didn't like it.
shadownerf again. classic from GGG
skill when?
still no info from gg fucking unreal
Came to the forums to get my daily dose of incessant rants and conspiracy. Not disappointed. Thanks guys.


Please fix the lag problems in some maps, I wasn't able to do any Abyssal Depths yesterday and today. No lag in town, huge lag in Abyssal Depths and other maps. It's not my internet connection, it's not even the entire game, just some maps.
L.E.: now everything is laggy :(

Thank you for ruining all of the time and effort of the non-streaming community of your game.

Thank you for "clarifying the text" and not being upfront and honest to your paying customers.

Thank you for delaying the PoE 1 league for this amazing update.

Was actually shooting for 100 this league. Thank you for putting a stopper on that, was having too much fun.

Absolutely no reason to do this now. Clowns.
So, for those who don't get it, I'll explain that early access and beta testing won't end until the pc versions, and especially the console ones, get stable FPS and performance. This is the first, secondly, Poe1 needs to rest, because after POE2 it's just eeeww

Patch of Exile 2 should remain alone, leave poe1 in the past and get a new name
Patch of Exile ETERNAL
