Why do people hate on this game the way they do after having played it so long lol...
i think because back when we played it, the game was actually good
and its quite easy to turn love into hate

i remember from my student days, we had some shop near the university that was selling cakes, my favorite was called "ice cube"

it was a cheap but rather large cake, about 12 x 12 cm, it was soft with just a little crust on the bottom, had a lot of some vanilla filling with a dash of mint, and chocolate on top

i remember when i was studying at night, it was a common occasion to go out at 3 am just to buy that cake. i had to jog 5 times a week to avoid getting fat as fuck from just how many of these cakes i ate. my blood sugar level was so high i probably smelled like acetone for 2 years. when im trying to say is, it was a damn good cake

and it was a damn good shop!
but then they got greedy

first they raised the price of the cake. then they started to put less filling and the crust started getting thicker, until it was like 60%+ of the cake. then they made the cakes smaller :cry: but they would make one or two normal sized cakes and put them in the front so you thought you were buying a normal cake, but when you actually bought the cake, they would give you a tiny one :cry: and it worked for a while. then eventually once the number of silently angry people reached critical mass, in extremely short time span EVERYONE just stopped going there

the place is still closed and no one has even tried to open anything there ever since, because people are talking about how that place is cursed

in reality it wasnt the curse that killed that shop, it was the owners greed.
that same thing will happen to poe, and for the same reason. and when that day comes, it will spark joy

and whoever says tldr, you are a noob and a cake hater
