Your silly ultimatum is laughable. If you don't like them going back to an actual challenging game like they set out to be from the get go, then you should just go play something else.

EXACTLY! On top of that, I will take a portion of the player base with me and there will be no more poe.

Watch out, we got a Pied Piper over here :)

she just hasn't noticed yet that complaining about a more challenging game puts you in a bad position in further discussions.

and there is a difference in whining on reddit or here, most of reddit's arguments are void cause they can't even prove they play poe in the first place.


things here are different, especially if you bring in your main account into a discussion of whether monsters in a arpg should pose a threat to players.


age and treachery will triumph over youth and skill!
+1 I don't like the changes and i started playing because of the zoom zoom playstyle i don't want to play a granny style game.

Saving this quote for the next league...
im just loving the loudmouths, the "git gud scrub" crowd, whining and quitting this league.

"Game is too easy", they said.

Enjoy your fading game.

This is getting annoying. Do you honestly believe you can't play fast anymore? Do you find it impossible? Because you still can. Its very nice when the criticism is something that actually exists and is problematic.

Yeah GGG! We need some change!

The only thing I want returned from 3.13 is Harvest and Bestiary item duping. Harvest and Bestiary made items cheaper due to high supply and thus encouraged build diversity.

The nerfs are okay, but GGG needs to do more than hit the players if they genuinely wish to slow the game down. The reason 3.15 isn't fun because we're still playing in a game that's been powercreeping to counter player powercreep which has just gotten toned down.
PoE players: Our game has a wide diversity of builds.

Also PoE players: The [league mechanic] doesn't need to be nerfed, you just need to play a [current meta] build!

The game now doesn't feel anymore difficult than a couple of months ago. Act 1 feels slightly more difficult but that is it. If you play a standard build, you won't really notice the difference. The game is as difficult as it was. People are dying left and right now because they can't one shot mobs anymore and keep their piano flasks up. Don't get me wrong the game in the last few years is much more difficult than it ever was. Mobs are much and much rippier than in the early days. They have powercreeped the mobs to insane dragon ball z levels and balanced the game around the top 10 poe ninja builds for a game that should work for 10.000 different builds that make sense. The balance team needs to get the drawing board quickly. Today I encountered a blight boss, I could only take 10 pc of his health off before he destroyed the spore pod. HP levels of mobs are of the MMO-type after being buffed a dozen times.

You're forgetting about bosses with next to no telegraphs like Sirus, Shaper, Elder, their guardians, the 1shots everywhere, the visual clutter that it makes it difficult to see anything coming at you, and the DPS checks that are timed league encounters. These were designed for players who were fast, but players have been largely toned down while these issues still persist. This has resulted in something opposite of GGG's intention which was to encourage build diversity, as more people are opting to seek the meta in order to put up with these problems.
