Probably.

Even when I was doing master chains and it wasnt permanent allocation from the start, someone would tell to change it to PA

Because why? Why SA or FFA? If you dont want any loot including orbs, so I guess it for you. The rest of the players dont want some stranger to get all the shiny things just because he was closer to that mob and he clicks faster than you

I'm melting


I'm melting

Did you even play SA? You get like 2-3 times the time needed no get to an item or smth..
I enjoyed FFA even more, but then again I'm not a nice person.

No I didnt. I have no idea what Im talking about.

Not a nice persons always like to ditch someone or rip him off, that why they like FFA. You are not alone though, its a lot like you in here

Amusing.
Incredible amounts of burnout and cynicism.

As for me, I have so nuch gear now, I still havent made toons to explore the content. This game has much more to offer to entertain me yet.

Bottom line, game does feel like it's dying. I was going to make a long post with feedback but realized writing all that is a poor waste of my time. I see max 11 friends online these days when before it a lot more. I believe people are pissed off about the nerfs and direction of the game, and are bored with the lack of content.

I agree with OP - nerfing builds constantly is NOT sustainable to maintain player-base. Players grind for hours to buy/make/find items needed for their builds and then the build gets nerfed? Some items require months of farming so this cycle of nerfs is disheartening and discourages players from grinding for their items or even trying new builds.

Builds getting nerfed in the middle of the leagues? Didn't affect me, but what's up with that? GGG showcasing Build of the Weeks and then nerfing them weeks after, what is that?

Another reason this game feels dead to me is that there is massive stagnation of builds - there have been no new builds that are truly NEW and use novel concepts/mechanics because all the builds have been exhausted with current skills and gear and optimum combinations have all been found.

Hopefully when Act 4 comes out this will help rejuvenate the game.

lol tbh




omg omg the sun went down, it feels like the world is dying, its cold and dark and everyone i know has gone to bed and plants need the sunlight to grow and we need to eat omg.

Hopefully the sun will come back up tomorrow.






yes, the sun will come back up tomorrow, its part of a cycle.




Self professed "hardcore" games, also lol tbh. Giving a shit about loot tension is rly hardcore ya, thats like old school, putting the work gaming there. When I see the terms hardcore and gaming together, any genre, first thing I think is loot tension, thats where the skill is at, thats where the real men are, the real dedicated, do it the hard way hardcase hardcore gamers mate. Same with partying, if there isnt an incentive to make the game joke easy by teaming up with a load of people then its obviously a shit game made for casuals, only a casual would attempt to take on content on his own when he could be in a party that kills all the mobs for him, thats what men do, they watch and loot.

yayayayaya yawn....

The game is dead for me...I've been pushing hard for some kind of "extreme" league that combines all other leagues simultaneously together for a maximum challenge. This is probably the only way I will play path of exile regularly, because the game just isn't challenging enough for me.

also theres a thread on this board i will not post in because I dont want to bump a cancerous, vile thread like that. But I will say to you, and you know who you are, just leave. You dont like this game then go, dont sit around on these forums trying to damage the game, encourage players to stop funding GGG and put them out of a job/us out of a game. You are free to dislike the game and the model, but all you are doing is trying to destroy the game for what?

You always were and always will be a net negative to the community, go find another game and leave the people who you dont like playing the game you dont like because actually, they enjoy it and you trying to break that out of spite or your own personal take on morality or whatever the hell is fueling you to come here is absolutely childish and disgusting.



this is the best ARPG ever made, to the point where people who dont like it want the game to die so GGG can make PoE2 instead because this game is so much better than any other ARPG ever conceived that the idea that any other developer could even match this game, let alone make a better one is absurd. This is as good as it gets, thats why you want PoE2 and you are not off looking for a better game from a different developer. Thats also why you need to get your trash talking and hairy fairy daydreamer ideas in check, this game is nothing short of a miracle, its a monolith of brilliance in a desert of turd that is the modern gaming industry and you would tear it down because of your own childish whimsy, nitpicking and inability to appreciate whats realistically achievable? Seriously, grow up, whens the last time you ever created anything anyone else gave a shit about?

Creative industries arnt about mr special snowflake and his single minded vision, thats called jerking off, creative people who have a job and do something that other people actually give a shit about dont sit around jerking off all day. They understand that art is communication, if what they create is to have any relevance beyond their own bedroom then they need to be able to understand the people they are communicating with and tailor what they are doing accordingly. No one will ever understand everything the artist is feeling, no 2 people are the same, but if the artist wants to convey the bulk of what is in his head to other people in a way they will get it, sometimes he needs to put things in their terms, not his own. Thats not being a sellout, thats not pandering to the masses, thats being an adult, a professional and a realist who understands the universe doesnt revolve around his little bubble and actually having an amazing game that is played by 100,000s of people around the world and lives up to many of their game design preferences is a more worthy pursuit than sitting in your bedroom with an idea of your perfect game that no one else wants to play.

no it aint the best arpg ever made lol...d2 was and still is.
