I like the fact the OP wrote the thread thinking it would be supported but infact, has found more people are satisfied with the game than they originally realised.

4 pages on 1 thread is surely enough to represent the entire PoE demographic :D

Really? I got too much removed by support - and to be honest here: I feel that the vast majority of the time that "removed by support" message was, in fact, something said AGAINST GGG. So really: what's left over is often a "atta boy GGG" which makes it safe to make your statement.


Personally speaking: I'm not playing POE right now. I likely will never touch it again. I sit and wait for word on drop/craft rates that favor the player. Until GGG decides to better reward my time I won't better reward their coffers.... nor will I continue the trap that is "make a new character every 4 months." Especially with the current platform/game engine they have the forces my playstyle. Infinite builds? LOLyarite. I wish. I would love to play even 10% of the builds I've designed (fuck: even 1% of the builds I've made I would be happy if I actually was able to play them on this terrible game engine)... but because of a terrible game engine I can't.

I'll happily continue to play my D3:ROS every night - continuing to play a game with an amazing engine - happily swap specs on my character to spice up how I play or switch over to any other level 70 character I have (I have all of them now) if I feel some need to play the game differently... and most importantly: I'll have fun with a game that actually caters RNG to the player. See? GGG has forgotten that this game is for the players. They are far too egotistical to care and are way far gone now. You guys can keep the game and them. White knight them to the games grave. It's actually too late now - 1st impression time is waaaay over. Honeymoon phase: nearly complete too.

Can't wait to see the next year or two while I'll still be over here happily playing the better game. ;)

Several players hide their tags because it ends up in "Wasted money for GGG" + probations.

JoannaDark is a double or triple gold supporter SaltyChipmunk is also a triple gold supporter.

Look at the feedback thread about wasted money even a Diamond supporter considers his money spend a waste.

Of course you are, Swag. There's a 'low level', safe, pinata to hit, every 5 mins, for hours and hours on end.

Did it ever occur to you, that some people might find that a less than enthralling experience.

Wow ... 18 pages long now. Just 18 pages of people repeating their points of view with no intention of listening, understanding or discussing anything other than the opposing argument is wrong and they are right.

Some people happy with drops, some not.
Some happy with endgame, some not.
Some people happy with trading, some not.
Some happy with SF, some not.

We're all different.

My favourite posts are those that are written by people who insist the game is dying/dead etc etc and somehow hold all the numbers confirming how many players play. Just because some of your friends stopped playing (which is normal anyway?!) doesnt mean that PoE is now hanging by a thread.

I am OK with the state of the game and will continue to play it and spend money on it.

Sure, desync is annoying as hell but I appreciate the communication of GGG on this. I can follow their line of arguments and I do believe that the direction they are taking is quite reasonable.

Also: trading is fine, drop rates are OK, the end game (i.e. maps) are far superior to any other end game I have seen in ARPGs -> I am having a blast.

Cheers!
