I only play this game to gain currency on JSP in hopes another good game will come out that I can waste all my FG on LOL

I think its indeed frustrating that u can invest a lot in a build and then it gets nerfed and it turns to shit.
Then again, what game gives u a fresh league, ballance changes, new items and new things to try every 3 months? u cant stand still and move forward at the same time. Besides, its even in the name of the game and one of the things in the genre, u have to grind to get stuff. If that isn't your thing u might be playing the wrong game and maybe even genre.

The only thing i can agree on is the stash thing, but then again: that is a quality of life thing if u consider the possibillity to store stuff on the numerous other accounts u can make. For trading the same, its more work to post stuff for sale on the forums, but it is possible and premium tabs a a quality of life thing.

Aution house, sure, maybe one day, probably not, but why cry about the trading taking a lot of time? its part of the game, as is SSF. One of the most depressing things of the current generation of human history is that patience is declining very fast, people dont want to wait, they want shit NOW and FAST like there is no tomorrow. If u are wasting your time with games anyway, why complain about wasting timeless effecient, its all pixels in the end.

For each their own kind of game, if u find a game that u enjoy but it has its downsides, ok, sucks for you, either get over it or leave. But dont start whining and telling that things are wrong just because u are dissapointed. If u play a game and it only gets u frustrated, seriously: consider quiting. If it happens more often with different games or at school/job/social life: go see a psychologist, u might be having or heading towards a burnout (no joke).

Challenge leagues are a great opportunity for a fresh start in a new economy. All of your old characters and items are still present in the Standard and Hardcore leagues, but you're encouraged to join the new leagues, complete challenges and demonstrate your mastery of Path of Exile!

🤣

Both of these can be true...

Its a free game that i dare say most people reading this thread have sunk a huge amount of hours into. Can you blame them for wanting you to buy stash space, MTX etc? Its costing them a significant amount to make this game and all people want is MORE for free.

Good troll, fuck off now.

For me, I don't mind spending $$ to support GGG whether even stash tabs or other MTX because i love the game. But sadly due to the human condition (greed in particular), they want us to jump through new hoops to keep us playing their game. What I mean by new hoops specifically is by nerfing popular builds. New hoops could exclusively be new content, new mechanics, new items, etc... but instead, they bring the nerf hammer, which they hilariously call it 'balancing', when balancing (imho) is for games like mobas (league of legends) and not hack n slash.

Case and point... Diablo II. At its current state, blizzard has not changed anything in that game for over a decade, and yet people still play it at its current unchanged state. Crazy thing is that there has been a resurgence of player base for diablo II.

I'm just keeping my fingers crossed for Diablo 4 and asking Jesus to help Blizzard.

God and Jesus won't help diablo The bible will tell you why.

Crying about a game with new content every 3-4 months.

Either you're really bad at PoE or are a standard player stuck in the past.

There isn't a need for an auction house or automated trades. Use trade macro > Post items in your stash > profit?
