There drops are NOT acceptable!

Have to agree with the point that they kept the game alive and made the count raise...What can you do...

I was expecting a little bit more out of these lake. Not really worth my time with so poor drops.

What a Squire isnt enough for you?!?!

As my mom would say just before she backhanded me, You ungrateful little shit!

hahaha

Some content creators should stop with the drama baiting. It makes them looks like angry 11 year olds. That's all I have to say about it.

People give streamers a ton of crap because they play video games all day. But in all honestly, it would be very scary for someone who relies on it for bills.

Not saying GGG should make a game people can 100% stream 24/7. It is what it is.

But in this case, the game is so unfun for them personally that the idea of playing it for 3 months just isn't worth the mental toll on them. I can't even see the hardcore streamers playing past 3 weeks.

I can even see Mathil lasting only the first month. His base of viewers is Softcore and somewhat new to the game.

As if they are actually quiting, the ones that do this for a job will come crawling back when they make only 10% of what they make now by streaming other games then poe.

It's because of them that we are in this mess. They have an equal share of the blame as GGG. It's them who slowly changed POE in what it was up until this league. They said "make it so" and GGG obliged. By the time GGG probably woke up and wanted to correct the issue it was to late. For starters, their solution to correcting it was flawed, and secondly, they suddenly realized that those streamers aren't going to take it.

This has become a standoff of two groups. And we shall see who gives in first.

Also, to the people aaying that more than justbthe streamers are complaining. The hordes that follow the streamers repeat like partots whatever they say. Those people see the gane through streamer eyes, not their own experience with it.

Thank you for sharing your blame awards. Although it's simplified to the bone, it's also way behind reality. POE is too complicated to just 'dive into' and have fun. Streamers brought attention to the game and explained it's utterly complicated game mechanics.

Even if you managed to never click a clip that explained anything to you, cause you're the big uber checkor raising with own experience only, you might acknowledge the importance of streamers to have kept the player base sustaining. It is a loss for the game in it's community if they turn their back on PoE.

And despite of any streamer and his/her opinion: i am deeply concerned about the missing fun of PoE. That game doesn't give you rewards, but constant punishment. And this is my 'own experience with it' as of many, many others who are not just parroting a streamer's opinion, but their own personal experience with a game that turned out to rise the fun to be had if you don't touch it.
