General Discussion - Streamer priority confirmed. PoE is free to play, so play it for free, but Boycott GGG. - Forum

GGG never got a dollar from me anyways even before the Tencent buyout and for good reason. Might jus play SSF and keep to myself this league. -Official Forum Dweller- -I started the hoho movement- -Exploit Early - Exploit Often- -Moderators are absurd and OP- -Heist Enjoyer- Last edited by xPiranha#4678 on Apr 17, 2021, 12:11:20 AM	Posted by xPiranha#4678 on Apr 17, 2021, 12:10:05 AM Quote this Post

Seems as though every streamer "drops" a mirror regardless of how long they have played. Gloomshot/GFL prove this on the daily. Yet people who don't stream and have thousands of hours have never seen one. The so called "streamer RNG" isn't real. Its planned and handed out to them. Its marketing for them. But what they don't understand is people would play the game more if they had the same "luck". So to me its counterintuitive.	Posted by Mavrk#0283 on Apr 17, 2021, 12:11:43 AM Quote this Post

synthesis launch was bad but not 1/2 as bad as this one being so unplayable atm. Hope things gets fixed and rolled back in all fairness.	Posted by AShugars#6351 on Apr 17, 2021, 12:42:54 AM Quote this Post

If you don't, you've still been screwed over all the same by this event. You've still been treated with utter contempt by a company you supported. ICYMI: https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/msboji/ggg_letting_streamers_skip_queue_is_messed_up/ -- and if you don't want to bother with that, here's the money shot: several clips of the most popula streamers being messaged by GGG to relog to bypass an extremely long log-in queue. And doing just that. If being openly shown that streamers get preferential access to a new league isn't your breaking point to stop supporting PoE, if 'reset the league' would be enough for you, then I seriously question what it'd take. GGG has openly shown they 100% choose profits over people, which for a free to play game shouldn't even be possible. YOU are GGG's profits. It's time to remind them of that. One person can't make a difference. I, more than many, know this. That's why I'm saying it to all of you. Don't take this as just 'GGG being GGG' and 'of course they give streamers first dibs'. Don't see this as the price you pay to play 'the best ARPG around'. Surely being treated like a lower priority for what should be a fair start for all is too high a price to pay. Because it's not just that they did this; it's that they knew you'd see them doing it via streams and didn't care that you'd see it. They're assuming you'll just get over it, forget about it once you're back to playing. Like the good little PoE junkies you are. I can only conclude that is exactly what they think of you. How helpless and stupid they think you are. Exiles: Boycott GGG. It claims to be a free to play game. So play it for free. See how that turns out for them while they're coddling their toxic, parasitic mouthpieces. GGG have shown you who they are now. Show them that it's unacceptable. Boycott GGG. :( It will convert your forum titles into decorative square badges that use the space next to your forum posts more economically so that you can show off an unlimited number of them at any one time. - GGG, 2018 (https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3573673)	Posted by Jerle#2906 on Apr 17, 2021, 1:51:18 AM Quote this Post
Main problem is about how GGG can't fix servers problem from league to league. Every league have fail start, and they not even bother to buy new server with all of those microtransaction profit. Also this "streamer priveligery status"... GGG now in bad position. I don't know how they will solve problem. Maybe they will try to blindly go trought, like nothing happened, but this is serious damage if people will not forget.	Posted by Reform93#4278 on Apr 17, 2021, 1:57:43 AM Quote this Post
I was just thinking, do you guys remember the spike in poe after the d3 inmortal fiasco? would it not be nice to provoke a similar spike in d3 because of ultimatum?	Posted by killraven1971#1033 on Apr 17, 2021, 1:57:44 AM Quote this Post
