A major problem of synthesis was that it released as a major change right befor holidays.

They did that again with 3.9... apperently they did not learn from that and did it again. That realy is a bad firm policy and displays a hugh ignorance.

They did it in the past too, that "christmas holiday release fiasco" is no the first I think ....

They don't give a crap about the quality of the content they release, it has been all rushed, unpolished, untested for a long time already and they don't give a crap about releasing it right before everybody goes in holidays.
It's ridiculously mind blowing really, it should be an incredibly easy thing to schedule, yet GGG either CANNOT or DOES NOT CARE.

They are clearly not capable of handling such an agressive release schedule, but if they don't mind releasing pre-alpha level content live, I guess that does not matter ....
I have not been hyped for a release for a long time, I always wait until at least the second week to really play, this time it will have been a month already and the game is a freaking buggy mess with blatant issues T__T

Fix the Game? You gotta be joking!
Fixes, we gots to show you no stinking fixes!

I agreee. Game have many problems like 30gb ggkp archive, low fps, uncomfortable trade system.
And now ggg dicide to destroy atlas make it unskipable, hehehe no more autism 4u no more 1map sustain, go get the shitty bosses we make, they shitty they annoying and they immune some time hahahaha suffer butch. And metamorf is black puddle witch oneshot any build and charecter in game this is nice update too.
This patch is total falure and disappointment.

Fucking shitfest this league, I've quit. And I won't buy one fkn pack either.

Sirius fight is so fkn bad I can't even find words.

I completely agree with you. I don't have your gift for words but this game has become (it wasn't, remember) complete and total crap.

Hey brotha just wanted to know I feel your pain , I've played some pretty high end builds this league cleared most or all content including awakener and the game just feels shitty , my friends don't like it so they all stopped playing, which in turn has made it pretty boring and here I will list some major issues that I've noticed and I've played since beta,


-The story is too long of a leveling process

-They didn't balance the new resist and armor mods to the game will which makes a lot of builds and new players frustrated

-To the above point , they recently buffed melee and didn't adjust to game changes so over all melee is very hard to play without extremely high investments if your aiming to do end game content

-6 month summoner/miner meta is bad for the game as alot of the player base feels forced into these builds to enjoy the new content and various end game mechanics

-There is way too much micromanaging now I'm not even sure how many masters there are but it honestly crowded my hideout and I'm spending 30% of the game sorting through various materials

-Metamorph is honestly a super cool league and very rewarding, but the core game has some serious issues and I wont be playing it until further notice, will probably try wolcen early access or play my nintendo switch or some thing..

I'm not even finished with the story and bosses are pushing my shit in so hard I'm crapping out diamonds.

Bosses are way too fucking tanky. Getting one shotted is extremely annoying, but it's made exponentially worse by the boss' defenses. I end up just respawning till the boss dies. Not fun or challenging just straight up frustrating.

I'm out till this shit is fixed.

Another complain is that majority of the players are necromancers which most would not highlight because they are all necromancers and the bar of the last few leagues bar are meant to deal with the super players.

This caused 90% of the other builds to be unplayable now and only certain builds, life builds, minions builds are playable.

Players that play evade are always going to die instantly due to unavoidable degenerate that hit for 10k or more.

If you dont use molten shell, steelskin or immortal call, you can say goodbye too.

POE = Only good for tanks and tankie builds. Or pro players that can move without getting hit.

The biggest problem isnt with the maps but a majority of the new players die so many times from 1 hit kill by bosses that it caused the players to drop off even before they can reach endgame.

The cycle is always the same. New League -> promotion in steam -> server lag due to new players -> servers problem solved cos 70% of the users drop off -> by mid-league server is emptied

This league is extremely frustrating and boring. Cant even test new variable and fun builds without getting killed. Or rather, I actually know my build is going to be suck cos it is not a tank because delve is so hard now.

Even 8k HP build can randomly die from 1 hit conquerors.

I was fighting one of the watchstone guardian. The one that spawns games on the floor. I die instantly when it 'activated'. Wtf...

Most of the time, these guardians kill me and waste my exp. What is the fun of fighting them when they are so insane?

My advise, switch to tanks or necros or delete the game.

i just did shaper for first time in prolly 3 months or so. it did seem longer to drop him but didnt seem longer by much? my equips are not any better since last time i did him. i havent done uber elder and prolly wont for a long while, but t16 elder was same piece of cake as he always been before.

all the new conquerors are utter push overs. i imagine old guardians are whatever. i just whacked phoenix, he was same easy weasel as he d been for me for some time. i know uber elder will give me probs cause i suck at this game. and sirus.... i despise that fight.

i was cruising along on him after aaccidentaly forgetting to to lower awakening level from 7 and then made a small mistake and before i knew it 3 portals were gone cause of stupid clouds in the way.... but the other bosses??? easy.

I can't say it has been ruined (still best ARPG ever) but I'm definitely having much less fun. Actually the least fun I ever had playing PoE.
