Viewerbase is plummeting on platforms, market reception is negative

Whats the future plans here? Will this game ever be like POE 1 or we just gonna remain silent, nerf fun and remove customers?

To be brutally honest, im putting in a refund.

Over 4000 Hours on the base game poe1, this game is d o g s h i t. It plays and feels like some weird arcade joystick game, when you can play an arpg with a fight stick, you know we have fallen.

400k playing mid week on steam alone.

Touch grass.

Lol. You would have loved closed beta of PoE1.

400k, at least 100k of that is pure bots/not real, the other 300k is still stuck in act 1/2/3 .

You forget most of the people playing this game have like, a child in a carseat on their desk, living at home with mommy/daddy etc, and have nothing better to do than waste time on this.


Also staring at a steam charts number is NOT an indicator of a good game.

They made a bad game thats overtly difficult for the normies, 99% of population was still in act 1 after week 1....

Once that 99% hits end game or even if they make it there they will see theres no substance here

Also you could have players who don't like it but are trying it out and testing things. Atleast that's where I am at, not a fan of the game so far and can't see doing it for season but currently ive been running through the acts on differnt classes, and using the gear i find on that class to progress to get a feel of how each would work on a league start.

Best arpg that has ever been made, you're just wrong OP. It is 1000 times better than poe1 ever was. and I still love poe1.

Game is bad and losing players

>information added about steam player counts.

>waved off as "not real" and belittled as bad players/bad people being the ones making up that count.

I hate the internet.

I think it it just depends what the next patch in January will be. If big changes aren't made to both the game and their philosophies then The Vision will be the death of this game. And yeah, its clear that most of the 400k-ish players are still in campaign. More and more people will quit as they get to ascension trials in act 2,3 or if they slog through the campaign and get to maps. Then there's also the random people that just try the game out once, beat the campaign and its been "beaten" in their eyes so they never touch it again. Even some people on my friends list tried it for like 5 mins in act 1 then never opened up the game again lol

If this was a one-and-done game where it just gets released and people buy it once, it would be fine. They made over a mil sales(who knows if its even 2 mil by now). But it's not. And the way the game currently is, it's just not sustainable for a live-service seasonal game which it wants to be. How many of these 400k players will come back every 3 months to level fresh characters with all their progression wiped? Exactly.

I've been trying to get a friend into PoE for years now but he doesn't want to because he thinks seasonal resets are dumb and he wants to keep his progress on a character with lots of time invested into it(and I don't think that's a bad thing), and I'm like "welp Standard is a ghost town and you don't really get to experience the newest mechanics on release there" so my friend just never tries the game out lmao
