Ya and gives priority to streamers

PoE Lifecycle:

Oh mannnn did you see the new League that's coming out? This one has some random npc in every zone that u talk to and then it teleports u to some place that u fight unlimited monsters in until you die!

HELL YES, IT'S GOING TO BE SO MUCH DIFFERENT AND COOLER THIS TIME

Plays game. Looks up build. Studies build. Downloads a program to fully lay out the build as it has more lines crossing than Charlie Day trying to debunk something. Oh! I leveled up!!! better study my build for 5 more minutes to see which direction I should be going in now!

WOW! I Reached the END GAME! THIS SURE IS FUN! I FOUND EXALT YESTERDAY

??????

Ehhhh im getting kind of bored. My character is nearly maxed out at this point. (Mirrors and HH people continue grinding, everyone else stops playing)

A YEAR PASSES

Man, I kind of miss my last character I played on PoE


Logs Character in


All talent trees are reset, as they obliterated your old build

You have no idea what you should build

google a build real quick, as you just wanted to kill some shit before next season to get a feel of the game again

google is leading you down to a wormhole

Wow this game kinda sucks for a game that's pretty good.




PoE Is pretty good. It's certainly better than Diablo 3. But there is virtually 0 reason to farm PoE. Dueling is nothing, so you're really just trying to work on and improve your characters. However, your characters and their builds only stay relevant for certain amounts of times. Couple that, with the fact that fucking nobody plays Non-Ladder. And with that........

You're left with a modernized version of Diablo 2, with tight skills, interesting builds, and really cool synergies. But with 0 of the legacy that Diablo 2 has. People on here have worked on certain characters for over a Decade. I saw a trophy room fire sorc yesterday... he said he worked on it for 8 years... and it fucking showed. Nearly every item he had was an ultra godly rare with 2 sockets and perfect stats to his build, an item that probably only 10 that's equal to it exist in the entire world. All these years later.

Meanwhile I know a guy who nolifed PoE for years. he has like 25 headhunters and 10 mirrors.

And they sit on his old toons... doing absolutely nothing.

I don't have the time to go get a 4 year degree in crafting and past-season mechanics to play POE

I'd much rather waste my time trolling JSP

The streamer thing was actual bullshit in ultimatum. And so are Chris' apologies and tencent lmao



Haha yea I usually liquidate most of my shit and never run GG OP META bullshit. Only have a couple mirrors and a few HH in standard, but have a bunch of random legacy stuff...98x FBs, aegis aurora, shit from harvest blah blah blah.

Maybe they'll make standard relevant one day.

Also I despise how often they make massive changes and ruin characters, you not exaggerating lol.

feature bloat

poe trash

Option 1: D2 that has no updates for 10+ years
Option 2: POE that updates every 3 months

No in-between
