Who else is not going to play PoE anymore because of the lab?

The lab is nice, but the reward is way too random for the enchantments and i don't like that you have to do them to get the Ascendancy. Better would be like a uniq that you can't get from anywhere else, or something.
I like the lab myself, people don't like labirynths, closed doors, blind alleys and such.

It's probably one of the best labirynths i saw in video games to date, but still look at gorge, plateu maps prices.

This is what people want to play :D

Labs are dumb. Good idea, poorly executed. I doubt a GGG staffer will see this, but if so PLEASE STOP ADDING MORE RANDOM ELEMENTS TO THE GAME. Some random is fun, but too much of a good thing makes it a bad thing.

Pros:
Challenge - die once and you fail
Traps make you think, unless you build for it
Boss makes you play well

Cons:
Crash and all progress is lost
Build limiting - Regen+endurance charge builds are FAR superior
End game lab only - finding trials is luck based. Screw you guys
Enchants are WAY too random. This does piss me off and want to quit.

And add anti ES and special anti CI mechanic, that makes no sense why such mechanic exist.

You only have to do the trials once per league, so scratch that excuse off your list.

And thank the heavens. Now I just have to wrap my head around the platformer mentality that I'll need in order to embrace the ascendancy classes.
I really like the lab. Uber lab actually gives pretty good XP and rewards. It's a nice change of pace to throw in some lab bonus prophecies and run an Uber lab when I find a trial key in maps. I always keep spare rat's nest and Devoto's Devotion for enchants and they sell pretty well.

I can imagine for HC it's more of a headache though

I swear, if more ressources is spent on fucking lab on next league, im out

Its noticable that this league has been halfassed because something else took the ressources (stupid uberlab)
ZiggyD is the Labyrinth of streamers, some like it, some dont, but GGG will make sure to push it down ur throat to make you like it

Thats the thing though - I still have to do everything every new league. Why did I stop making new characters? Because I don't want to run the lab. Same logic applies to starting a new league.

Unless my progress is saved between leagues and the fact that I did the 3 difficulty labs before is taken into account I will not go through any of the crappy trials and labs again. Simple.

wholeheartedly agreed with this , the trials and normalcruel into merc transition every lab kills the thought of creating new characters if you are not a 12 hours per day player.
and even if you are - you just think "omg now ive to do trials and lab all over again euuuugh".
