So just how much is Tencent's financial control of GGG influencing PoE 2 development?
|
Now that the press tour for Delirium is over and the gaming sites have posted articles about it, I read the press release on PC Gamer and in it read this statement:
" Reading between the lines does this mean that Tencent has it's own Chinese team working on parts of PoE 2? GGG has previously stated that the sale of 80% of GGG stock to Tencent Mobility Ltd. would have no affect on the future development path of their arpg (Tencent wouldn't leverage their financial control). Has this changed? Should we be concerned in light of GGG revealing that they are working on PoE Mobile? I was concerned that Tencent would eventually leverage GGG to add features that they wouldn't be doing on their own. Is there anything to be concerned here? Edit: Rereading the PC Gamer statement again maybe it means that the Garena version of PoE 2 will be delayed and thus GGG will need to delay the release of PoE 2 so that they are both released simultaneously. I sure hope that's all there is to it and not Tencent strong arming GGG to code PoE a specific way. "You've got to grind, grind, grind at that grindstone..." Necessity may be the mother of invention, but poor QoP in PoE is the father of frustration.

Tencent basically develops their own version of PoE for the Chinese market. They have stuff like an auction house, loot pets etc.
No, Tencent doesn't work on our version of PoE2, that's GGG's job The opposite of knowledge is not illiteracy, but the illusion of knowledge.

Absolutely no concern.

" Then you're quite naive. Corona is at the brink of becoming a pandemic, and by prior WHO classification standards should already be considered a pandemic. |

" What does that have to do with POE 2?? |

Sounds like they found a good excuse to give themselves some more time.

"No concern" that the delays are due to Evil Machinations on the part of Tencent, at any rate.
They sent their loot panda development team home and closed their offices to comply with quarantine efforts, most likely. Nobody here has said that the virus itself was of no concern. Most of us are watching the news pretty closely and getting our shit together in anticipation of falling ill or having to live under quarantine. we're also cool with not having a vidja game delivered to our hard drive like clockwork on the promised release date, if that delay means the devs and code jockeys are still around to resume work on it after their city is no longer a hot zone.
