Why do some players lose their passion for PoE ?

Usually i stop playing when i level a new char to lvl ~83, and i still have the same crap gear i got from docks/lunaris and cant get anything decent..
My best char so far https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1211377

I don't care why are you playing and what you want. I have asked you for one damn thing, a link to the devs answer, not more, not less. If you can't provide it, than I won't believe you. Simple.

I am not trying to bulshit GGG or to say that they are doing a bad job. In fact I think that they are doing a great job designing this game (the skill system, the gems, etc. ).

And this is the reason why I can't fuckin' understand why are they making such dumb interviews like Chris with Athene where he insults causal players. I can't understand why they don't want that more causal players like me playing their game. Why turn away people who actually think that PoE is a great game that just to need a little bit more adjusted?

Less RNG affected crafting system, or better boss drops, or easier access to lvl74 maps, one of these three things implemented and people would come back to the game, then it would be perfect.

This is just plain stupid. Sorry.

Devs have talked about desync, drop rates, etc.
It's not my job to search these posts out for you, and frankly, I couldn't care less if you read them or not.

I'm pretty fucking casual in the PoE scheme of things, yet Chris himself has replied to my emails.

But get angry at me, please. It amuses me.
If you have game related concerns, email support@grindinggear.
Many lewt.
Much desync.
Such rewarding.
Wow.
According to forum mods "sandwich" is considered an offensive word. Who knew?
I dont get angry at you. I just wanted a damn link. Thats all.

I am not sure about what you trying to tell me.
Ok devs have answered the issues. Fine. Where. Don't find anything. Sorry.

It seems you where upset upon my post where I said that Chris is hiding on reddit. Well its true. My post was true as well. Whats the matter?

Are you trying to defend GGG? Why defend them? I don't offend the company. Why should I?

Only things I am saying right now are that I don't understand their decisioins at the time (for example the things Chris talked about in his interview). This is all. I've said I think his (or companys, whatever, Chris is the company) decisions are stupid if the decisions are turning people away from his game.

Oh pls. argue with me how are less players better for any game that many players.
I read throughout almost all the thread and i can say that most comments turned into massive feeedback. It was captivating. I would be happy to sum up all the opinions if i could. I encourage anyone to read it.

Edit: Some interesting threads were written as a consequence, like Boem ones.

1. boredom, I love this game but it kind of gets boring and I do need a break from it.
2. game is designed to have a "slow improvement of your character, according to the founder of GGG, some people prefer fast paced games, just that game's pace is like really slow steps.
3. game has lots of desync issues that makes the game not enjoyable.
4. the developers tend to like breaking popular builds or over powering builds to the state where you can not play the game the way you previously wanted to.
5. the game balance is something that is very hard to balance for the devs.
6. the economy tends to be unstable
7. its one of those games where you have to spend 1000s of hours doing same things for simple things like linking a sockets, coloring a socket, having enough stats to actually play an end game.
Another thing that is annoying with the game is actually some part of the community. some die hard fans are traditionalist with over-sized nostalgia goggles on who have no idea what progess is. Just like the narrow minded traditionalists you find in the political arena. They don't want the game to turn out exactly like D3. That's understandable, but that won't happen anyway. It's okay to take new ideas and implement them as long as they actually improve on certain game mechanics. It is an elitist mentality that is growing and they tend to use comments like "go back to D3". Very constructive. Not!.

need pvp
i have also been recently been playing less

just not as fun anymore made a few builds and its just boring especially about the point of not being able to sustain high level maps completely pointless so once you run out or cant buy more 77 78 maps you just farm dom and oh wow nothing good drops better sell them for alteration shards so i can get fuses ZZZ

after 3 - 5 days of this pretty much lose any sort of incentive to keep playing
de-synch is what makes me turn my sight's towards other games

poe is great and all but i can't be bothered to deal with it for a while

plus getting addicted on D2 again , fun game is fun.
