Who still can not "Ascend" and why?

Just the amount of time required is absurd.

FPS DROP / LAg and then disconnect after 3 rooms.

No, you are wrong. Stop feeling so entitled, nobody owes you anything here.

Ask for your money back if you feel slighted.

Imagine a hypothetical case... Windows 20 runs smoothly on computers with 4 gigs of RAM. Without warning, and after a update patch, computers with the minimum requirement of 4 gigs of RAM can no longer access the Start menu without Windows displays a blue screen of death saying "You're screwed"... You think that's fair?

You know, Apple did just that with their first iPad.

After installing the first upgrade to iOS, the OS now use much more ram than before. Want to play a game? Browse a web page? Sucks to be you, we will randomly shut down your app because of too little memory available.

One of the reasons so many people are having issues with their computers, is because GGG never (as far as I know) have stated minimum requirements for playing.

At least they should have stated:
1.) Get a mouse
2.) Windows 64-bit
3.) Nvidia or AMD GPU

...like all other modern games. Now, we all know POE has problems with resource usage, so the minimum specs should have reflected that...

min requirements repell future customers, some play with massively toned down graphics and later upgrade because they like the game's mechanics.

After not playing for a year I did normal lab last night in HC.

So all the complaining / lag excuses must be just that.. Excuses.

And I play on an asus laptop, pretty good specs but still..

Of course. I perfectly understand why GGG never did so, as they need to attract as may players as possible. I also agree with people saying that there should be a way to tone the settings down inside the game.

But stating the requirements would get rid of some of the "potato" complaints...

When that is said, I run a pc slightly above average, not top end, and some of the traps kill my framerate (talking 10-5 fps), so there is certainly room for improvements to the labyrinth...

(phase-) acro icetrap saboteur here... i had my issues with him cause of his sunderlike shockwave attack which travels like instant and just onehsots my character... just overleveled normal and cruel and did it then... merciless... damn still need better gear ^^

I can't. I don't think I will. I can't play that long without getting vertigo.

Well, ascending does tend to go to heights, which may be bad for someone with vertigo.

You. Win.

And luckily, I dare to take the steps to the podium!
