Why are some players against balancing the game around SSF?

Meta is meta.

from personnel experience there's been nothing I have not been able to build SSF. May take all three months - job, wife, kids etc get in the way but still. Doable playing 2-5 hours a week. it's only 2 some weekend because i'll fall asleep playing from exhaustion. There is something about this game that makes me really tired. Music maybe.


I cant believe its possible to build all meta builds without extreme luck in ssf. Like I cant imagine someone doing a 11 link squire build or one of the old aura stackers in that enviroment without having so much luck that he should have bought some lottery tickets.


"luck" is real powercreep
while "lucky" rng can build meta or non meta build and grind ANYTHING
"unlucky" rng will never complet build even in 3m

because as as someone who has played the game pretty much SSF for 75% of the leagues, all this comes across is a poor excuse to boost drops for no reason other than you want loot but don't really want to do anything to get it.

Game is and always has been clearable by those playing solo self found, it may take a little bit more time but it is 100% not necessary.

So no, GGG are not going to boost drops under the guise of SSF balance (as stated when they started doing SSF) it is and only ever has been a challenge and a way to "brag"

2 5 hours a week, that would mean sth like 3.5 * 4 * 3 = 42 hours to do all content, of poe, a grindy game. Sounds very very fast sounds way more like a standard AAA game, you sure you re likign the challenge ? oh yeah, you re using tr champion. May i ask you if you came up with your own build or if you copied one ? and maybe you could consider that some people are not into this way of playing ?
