Those numbers are very small considering that PoE is "most popular ARPG game". There are mobile games that hit close to ONE BILLION $ income per year.

Alternative account. But understanding this must be difficult for someone with a number of brain cells equal to the number of supporter packs. Whatever. I played this garbage till patch 3.6.3 release, after which it turned out that the game does not intend to stop being shit. At that time I came to level 94, I killed Uber Elder and I got to Delve 287. Then quited, so far definitely. Waiting for another action shooter with RPG elements. In the meantime playing some other games little bit, but enjoying spring weather mainly and do some exercises too. Boxing, other martial arts, running, such stuff :)

Alternative account my ass. You are just another who blindlessly follows bandwagon like some sheep.

WoW is dead 2.0

Its not the game, its still very good.
But it stands and falls by new players.
New players love the game as long as they gain progress, even if its small steps.
And there we have the problem: SEEING PLAYERS ASKING LARGE AMOUNT OF CURRENCY FOR A MAP.
Talking about 50 chaos to even 1 EX per map.
Dont they know that they are the only ones left in this game with a high amount of currency, and forgot the time they started this game.

Here are the lists of problems.

The main Act Questline has become vestigial to the process of leveling, this is even more predominant in the current league.

Lab is boring, and more of a required nuisance than fun anymore. Especially with the introduction of Double Corrupted in Incursion, means that Lab Enchants aren't the only way to get an amazing Implicit on a Helmet.

In the current League, Map Drops (in the white tiers) are terrible, and leave you slogging through content.

The League's mechanics are awful. Synthesis is not fun, the crafting system leaves little to be desired unless you are a bow user building a bow for very specific builds.

The game, which always had a heavy dose of RNG, is more RNG than it's ever been, and it's at the detriment of the game. Honestly, I've all but given up on even bothering to ID items anymore (when I play my long standing characters), and it's getting to that point in the league, and I'm not even that geared. I'm burnt out on Identifying massive amounts of crap, and then shoving it in stash tabs, until I have what I need for the vendor recipes.

It used to be cool, and fun, and neat, and different, and I would hold out hope that I would ID something that I could Bench craft on, or that would be some jaw dropping amazing item.

But i've given all that up, and just stuck with Chaos Recipe as my main Loot filter, because there is just too much trash dropping in the game.

Then, there is the fact that GGG screwed Standard Players with their Atlas change, and there has been all of 1 podcast interview saying "A solution is really hard", a post from Bex calling it "an inconvenience", and a follow up post from Bex that "they're committed to fixing it in 3.7. Standard players are by and large not happy about it. I decided I would play the league this time, and give them a chance to fix standard, but the league is so god awful, that it doesn't matter. I'm not having fun in the league either.

There are those who will always love GGG, and PoE.
There are those who will always say it sucks.
There are those, like myself, who played in OB, left for a bit, came back, had a good time......... right up until they decided that they were going to destroy our fun every 3-4 months, and make us start over.

Synthesis was quite possibly the worst league to follow up betrayal with. Betrayal had a ton of flaws, but people enjoyed it. Synthesis did not deliver an experience that was conducive to player retention for the player boon they got with Betrayal.

I have been having great fun with Warframe. Even POE advertises it! lol. Check it out. While POE is having problems I've been getting heavily into the game. Great stuff!

I tried Warframe couple times already (I have like 70h played in total) and everytime I play it I feel like there is no point in this game. In PoE when I make new character I need to level it up, so my point is to level it up. In Warframe you just need "gear" (mods + forma'd weapon) and you are done.

Op must be trying to buy perandus map. I do see some joker listing normal maps for an ex, but I never take that seriously.

Dead league is dead. This happens. They'll come back if the next league is good. We always do.

It's totally the game. This league in particular is actual garbage. Despite the core story element I recommend they don't make it core without a COMPLETE overhaul. It's actively unfun.

Okay, you're just... confused. Very confused.

Way back in the day when exalted orbs were like 33c, level 78 (the top level back then!) maps were actually an exalted orb, and were super-hard to sustain.

But regular maps aren't going for an ex now. No one has any idea what you're talking about.

I am not confused, talking about rare tier 8 maps in standard.

So Tier 8 maps goes for 1 ex in Standard now? Good to know, I will go and sell my T8 maps in Standard for 15 mirrors.
