POE's all time best was 123K sometime back in 2018 but never managed those player numbers again.

Do u guys think this will trigger GGG into fixing POE for a change and releasing a good quality league with finished development of it for a change, or are they going to continue ignoring how half complete the game is to just double down on POE2 development?

Not many players plays POE in the last month of the league. That's why you see so many players on Wolcen . They will all come back to PoE when the 3.10 will be released.

Clunky AF, but enjoyable in a way I guess. One thing I like is not having to put up with Scrolls to ID or TP (yes, I know I can get for the latter from a gem). Deckard Cain where are you?

Maybe an idea for the devs here. QOL improvement?

Other than that, I'll prob be back here real soon. This game may be obtuse but I've been playing it so long I understand it.

I don't have time for both, but I doubt it has me long-term (2+ mos). Tried Grim Dawn, and it didn't grab me. Wolcen has some of the same feeling ATM after all the bugs I got.

Wolcen has amazing potential but as it stands, it feels like driving a car that is missing two wheels and is suffering from a total lose of power steering.

I hope that game gets better over time.

I test Wolcon. It is actually. You get to see the Block and Dodge tooltip flashing if it is successful plus you also get to see damage numbers like a mmo. So far it is a cool experience.

Yo op, go ahead and google KEKW. Thats wolcen for ya. Poe is so fucking far from that alpha game that its KEKW u feel me?

This made my day. Thanks for saving me time and money.

Yeah uh, I wonder if they plan to reset the online economy soon? That sure will piss people off, but if they don't do it, well, I think everyone who had the game before yesterday has over a trillion gold now.

Honestly, if they don't fix the economy, then implementing these bug fixes now is nothing more than punishing latecomers (1.0.4 has the bugfixes for infinite gold and item duplication in the stash).

Good this is what happens when they just metashift, limiting peoples available builds. People get bored and fill that gap with something else. Hope Wolcen continues to get better so that maybe GGG will finally make changes.

What economy? There's no meaningful trade going on and gold gives you little in game advantage. If they wiped now it or in the future it would have a far more detrimental effect in pissing off the players who hadn't already lost their progress due to bugs than having too much gold floating around.

Gold lets you have max level spells instantly in Wolcen, via buying spells from the shop and reselling them for that resource that lets you level up spells.
