big problem was that they couldn't figure out a proper monetisation model to keep the game fresh content wise. i mean DLC in form of one additional class, or expansions every 2 years are not proper ways for sure. they would need to create some form of subscription/mtx shop, and they didn't have enough political will to do so.

PoE won't die, it just won't be very played in the future.

About the D4 director - he left due to non-D4 related issues.

Have you ever worked for a large corporation? High-level personnel NEVER leave for non-project-related reasons. That's just the icing put on the cake so morale doesn't tank.

I did for 35 years , and most high level execs that left did so for better offers the company did not match. I remember some leaving after they screwed up something big, but that is very rare. I would say the second most often cause I remember was health.

dude you reading my mind. I cant count how many times i wondered why they not adding mtx poe like to give us at least the chance to support the game . I dont mind giving another 15 dollars for a new act and the druid class.
But nope, Bobby wanted diablo immortal asap so..

Yeah Im serious why would I lie? My profile is open, import the build and check yourself. Delirium maps arent an issue thanks to bleed explosions. Just like profane bloom takes care of that. Doesnt matter how tanky mobs get, they will die without getting to do anything.
And yes I went for an easy starter because we were playing Groupfound so I couldnt just buy everything I wanted and the build still needed to scale nicely.
Bleed Glad did all of that. I crafted my gear myself, all of it and did quit when I was done. There was nothing else to do although I could have min/maxed more if I wanted to. There was just no point in doing so.

The whole point in 100% deli is to stay alive, it's not really your DPS even if of course you need it. From what I see I really doubt your Bleed glad steamrolled the game (because when you confortably do 100% deli and insta phase bosses like you explain us, you steamroll the game.....and I really can't believe you steamrolled the game with this bleed glad.

Also, to ME, it feels really wierd reading someone explaining us how he would have steamrolled on any Maven's invitation but didn't do it because yeah that looked so easy, so uninteresting.......it really really feels like trolling.
I didn't played since 3.12 btw so I got no clue about Maven or how it feels to fight multiple bosses at a time, just like you but I leveled for 97 to 100 ONLY doing 100% delirium maps (+conq-sirus fights inbetween, often with leechers) and I got quite a good idea about what you need to actually steamroll the game in 3.12.

Wanted to come back this league but too much work, next league maybe.

i think they announced poe2 too early (like a panic response to d4 news) and also that the progressive mutation from one to the other feels weird... like an inbetween phase.

i like to think things will settle once poe2 comes out but things feel bad right now.

Thats fair.
Look up a vid showing off the fight and tell me what you think about the memory game, dodging laser beams and placing degen puddles.
Thats pretty much all there is to the Maven fight.
Especially the memory game looks terrible to me and I cant see myself enjoying it. So I didnt do it.

However I was steamrolling the game and while thats the point of an arpg, it should take longer to get there than it did take me so it feels like a reward and not a given.
Harvest was just way too overpowered and turned the entire game into a joke.

For reference Ill leave a link to 3.12 footage of a Kosis wave 20 kill in slow motion. He dies in about 2-3 sec realtime and gets to attack exactly one single time.
Thats pretty much how all boss fights looked like and that was 3.12 not 3.13 - so no Harvest. Judge yourself.

Not sure about D4 and the longterm engagement.

From what was showcased the leveling will likely be ultra fast to maxlevel (lvl 40 max) and endgame beyond campaign will only be dungeons that have modifiers similar like POE maps and maybe world bosses on a daily / weekly cooldown.

If theres nothing more in the sleeve the player retention and season/league playtime will be like current D3 leagues.

Looks challenging Maven's Invitation to me, I hardly believe this looked unchallenging and boring to your average bleedblow lvl 96 glad to the point you didn't do it because it looked freaking boring to you.

I'm sorry but truely feels like trolling to me. And the Carrion golem build in this video is a much much much better boss killer than your 3.13 bleedbow glad, not even speaking about the eHP of this 3.13 carrion golem build.

Uuumm I guess you looked up the Feared Invitation and yeah thats freaking challening.
I was talking about fighting Maven herself the entire time and that fight is boring.

Memory game...
