Why does GGG listen to top tier players on Reddit & not bother to do proper market research?

I find amusing that PoE players praise the game constantly but mostly on this forums all I see is talk about D3 or other acti-blizz games..

that important poe is.. I guess.

they constant shit on acti-blizz games but don't realize their own "great game" isnt all peachy and rainbows..

can't be worse than "elitism" in this game, at least it's so funny to read I fall out of my chair laughing every time it happens here..

Well GGG has done me a huge favour.

I have followed people's advice and started on Grim Dawn. I love it so much I bought all the expansions.

I was horrified when I saw I had spent $825 on Path of Exile - Free game lol - such a false economy.

I spent £50 on Grim Dawn and will have many years of play on it without it costing a bean more.

Win win for me :)

Wait, you spent 825$ on this game and you don't have badges? I mean you got one, but that is silly for 825$. Did you spend such big money on small items in mtx shop one by one?XD Worst decision ever. I've spent around 600$ on this game and still I managed to have more shit from mtx shop than you.

PS. Grim Dawn is slow and boring, there is only one ARPG that looks promising called Wolcen.

The reason I personally have stopped playing POE is because the Betrayal ambush mob were forced on us - ie it took away choice.

Lol, I've played during betrayal and those ambush fuks were big cancer for me, so I figured out something amazing for that bullshit, you know what?

RUNNING AWAY FROM THEM AS FAST AS POSSIBLE.

Crazy huh? You told that we don't have a choice, but I think that you misunderstood the situation. There is a choice, you just didn't figure it out
