What did POE learn from Lost Ark?

Is there any PVE elements in the game that are worthwhile? Or does it all just lead to PVP as the main event?
Thanks for all the fish!

ONE MILLION LOST ARK QUITTERS ONE MILLION. Sharks with freakin laser beams.

On a technical standpoint, concurrent players aren't total players. Realistically, LA had 10 - 20 million unique players in the first month, and now has about 5 - 10 million unique players that login at least once per month.

PoE has, by a rough estimate, has 2 - 3 million unique players that try each league on PC alone, and about 4 - 5 million unique players that follow the game.

The game is 99 % PvE, main feature being legion raids - highly skill-based boss fights of 4 or 8 players (mostly 8).

No.

The fights are heavily individual-responsibility based rather than on team cooperation like WoW/FFXIV are, but everything good still involves dealing with other people.
To be fair " Archnemesis league " wasn't aware that Lost Ark would tank so bad.

The forums for Lost Ark were either p2w debates or that the game lacks something.

Poe's player base was busy test running Lost Ark for the month of Feb.
Thus less funds for the next league. However after Lost Ark was tanking, that was go time to impress another feature road map for Lazy Peons rereview style of marketing. Without that first; POE hasn't gained that many Lost Ark test runners yet. POE has gained some DI people.
100 people towns with hang out fields. Witcher taverns. Free hair style options. IRO War of Emperium gvg map.

I like how "it will be dead in 3 months", which was the prediction of the week for LA, now it's "it will be dead in 20 years" :D


my favorite one is how la is giga p2w

meanwhile, me, a guy that paid $0 for the game...

1510 berserker
maxed tripod levels
5x3 engravings

if anyone doesnt know what this means, it means if you installed la and maxed out your wallet to whale, you still wouldnt beat me in damage, you literally have to rmt to even have a chance

also meanwhile over at poe, can someone show me how to obtain stash tabs without literally paying money? o wait.. and this is where the "poe isnt p2w" peanut gallery flocks over to write a phd thesis on why its not p2w even tho the person writing the text literally paid for stash tabs


Cool story bro.

Meh. Not my cup of tea for sure. I figured F2P wouldn't be terrible to try in league downtime, but I really don't like to be forced to group up and do encounters in groups.

It's probably for the best, heavy P2W tends to grind at me even if I avoid it.
Thanks for all the fish!
