After having played countless hours of PoE with Maps, Delving and all the endgame content. Even D3 with rifts and grifts, felt at least fresh almost everytime you stepped into a portal. Farming every boss and chaos/baal brought good memories but lack of endgame is catching up on me real quick


lol what after a while maps and rifts are just the same shit over and over same bosses same mobs same everything its no different then running to baal or diablo or andy u get a random map with a preset boss based on the map its literally the same
if you want them to add content you havnt played enough blizzard games to know you really dont it will suck and probably ruin the game like they have done with everything else they tried to come up with new shit in the last like decade

right now i think people lack incentive to play like at first it was fresh fun nostalgic but its coming to the point people need incentive such as ladder competition
idk about you guys but i give zero fucks about this non ladder shit were paying right now so lvling and mfing to me is kind of meh i dont plan on playing this mode outside of pvp toons here and there once ladder drops
idk im also getting "bored" of the game but mostly due to the lack of ladder i have no incentive to lvl or mf i dont think rifts or maps would help that and in the long run i think it would just ruin the game cause they wouldnt be able to balance them

I dont give a damn about ladder. Not sure whats different other than seeing a ranking...

Maps in PoE are great because:

- Gives you 160+ regions to complete (completionist) with bonus and mechanics making it hard to master the first time.
- With all their expansions, there's at least 3-4 ways (usually alot more) to "farm" the game and still be efficient and make yourself rich
- Maps are tier based, so there's a ramp up: White, yellow, red map, then shaper / elder bosses, then shaper/elder bosses. Now there's the maiden as well as many other endgame mechanics that requires GG char and give you the incentive to try and push your char higher.
- You can craft maps with random maps to even push for better rewards / higher risks (sometimes actually unplayable)
- There are absolute GFG items that if you manage to snag one, you are a fucking god (Hello Headhunter)

In d2, you have no reason to push your char other than going back to chaos sanctuary, again, with people in the game to make it harder. I'm not sure how you can say with confidence that's both the same thing drago :P. If you want to say its the same thing, lets just say D2 has 4,5 "maps" (andy, cows, meph, trav, chaos, baal). All white maps. Thats it.

because ive played poe and running maps felt like the same shit it gets boring after a little while too its just repeating the same shit same maps same bosses its not any different then baaling or chaosing to me
and if blizzard made maps in d2r i really doubt they would do it right and it would just ruin the game and then we dont even have original d2 anymore we only got broken ass d2

tbh if they add maps or rifts im requesting a refund i like the original game i dont like diablo 3 or rifts im not a big fan of poes mapping system and i dont want those in this game cause they shouldn't be there and will ruin the balance
if thats what you want in this game go play those games or path of diablo stop trying to change the game so that you like it more if your not enjoying it sucks to be you
you really think rifts or mapping is going to add this never ending end game?your going to do that for like a month tops and quit anyways lets be real


if mapping was such a good end game how come poe resets every 3 months or something like that and majority of players play the leagues ?cause the ladder reset is what they want not mapping

Crazy how anyone can debate whether D2 needs more content or not - it’s been around this long because it doesn’t - end of story

If you really like Poe’s systems, then go play poe

yeah its one of the longest running online games and kept so many players even with the super outdated graphics
like if the end game was that bad the game woulda died years ago and they wouldnt have remade it with hd graphics


like for example the original d2 ladder rset on the 12th there is 1k people on the HCL i looked and there was 900+ lvl 50+ characters
scl had even more and that was just east like thats with d2r out thousands of people are still playing d2 ladder resets

D2r, is lame as all hell. There are times I just want to donate everything j have to someone. I'll be patiently waiting d4. The d2r rush was fun. But extremely boring. Nostalgia has def worn off.

super patiently then eh cause d4 has been indefinitely delayed
sounds like it could be good though seems like they want to put actual effort into their games now that there is new management instead of rushing out garbage games killing off franchises

There's no ladder or decent PvP scene yet. Realistically D2R hasn't even started.

No wonder why the game is already dying
