Tired of content & leagues being removed from the game

Why remove Metamorph?

Removing Perandus was a mistake

Removing Prophecy and Metamoprh especially were mistakes.

Prophecy allowed you to modify your maps in a somewhat deterministic way. Frogs, rats, tempests.

Perandus gave you a chance to get a unique deterministically.

Metamorph gave you more challenging mobs that you can get in a map and gave you an extra boss you can fight on top of another boss you can fight later with combining the pieces.

Removing alt gems from Heist makes no sense either. Like, why? Legitimately, why? They can't keep it on top of adding new content?

There is no reason to remove previous content considering the engine CAN handle it and the devs stated multiple times that it can. Runescape for instance has content that is still in the game that was released back in 1998.

The whole "league popularity" argument makes no sense either and sounds like another easy cop-out reason to remove content.

Like I legitimately don't understand these decisions. It's not content bloat, this is just an easy cop-out way for you to remove more content that your team would have to keep track of in upcoming updates.

Let us zoom out more. Bring back 32:9, Heist Alt Quality Gems, Gear Enchanting, Prophecy, Metamorph & Crucible. Stop removing content from the game. Stop nerfing everything. Stop making the game slow

catalysts will come from ultimatum now
I miss prophecy and I always league started with metamorph because I like bossing builds.

Might as well as removed essence/spirits/rouge exiles.
Mark just said that Metamorph tabs will be converted to Ultimatum tabs. :)

Ok, great. The content itself is still being removed so it's a real buzzkill. This was one of the few league mechanics I enjoyed doing in maps as a scarab. There is no reason to just remove it. It's just taking choice and alternatives away from the game.

They don't know if it is going core or not. I'm confused as to whether that means Standard could keep Metamorph indefinitely or they will still remove it and replace the catalyst drops by buffing Heist or other mechanics.

Why are you confused? Metamorph is GONE forever replaced with Ultimatum including the tab the tab becomes Ultimatum.

If it a) adds player agency or b)removes RNG and/or c)doesn't increase the friction before fun or d) is fun GGG simply deletes it.

Anti-fun, anti-consumer all the way, and nothing else.

They also said that it was annoying to maintain, the battle in Tane's lab was meh and that overall, a lot of devs were happy to send it on its merry way - among other reasons.
Metamorph is literally the least popular league mechanic in the game, as can easily be verified by checking the poe.ninja atlas passive heatmap.

Removing a system almost everyone is blocking and that GGG themselves aren't happy with, and putting their rewards into one of the most popular league mechanics of all time, makes perfect sense.
