The Amount of Time "Vacationing" is Actually Absurd

also why are you trying to act dense saying you don't know what I mean? you do lmao

People aren't usually releasing their biggest product ever in a companies lifetime to have their 41st christmas... I'm sorry you think it's fine that ggg chooses to shit out 500 usd "support our game packs" to then refuse to support the game with literal duping going ramapnt and people getting hacked.If that's to much to ask for I don't know what to say. They can choose to take a vacation after the first month of release? hmm


they were in the office for 8 days to fuck off for 22 so far



No, sorry, I really got confused when I reached the "this is all by choice", I didn't know if you meant it in a good or a bad way, but I just went ahead and gave it my best shot on replying either way :). English isn't my first language, I'm doing my best here, there will be times that I'll fail miserably understanding some things haha.

I never said that I agree with the "timing of the release", that's a different discussion, but I also understand it since most people are going to be home playing so they can provide feedback in full as well, I'd done that part differently if it was up to me, but it isn't.

I'm only giving my arguments and discussing the vacation part.

I'm not sure how duping affected anyone, how does it affect you, I really don't know, it's a sincere question. It hasn't affected me in any way, I still occasionally use the trade site for my character and the maximum I've ever given was 10 exalts I believe and he's fully capped on resistances and everything, blasting happily through t15s+. So I'd like to understand your side as I'm obviously missing something here by the looks of it.

But in any case, for this matter, this is an EA, it's not a released product/game nor a "league" yet that has a meaning of competition for some, so all of the economy thing shouldn't even be anyone's priority to be honest in my opinion.

I'm not saying that they shouldn't address it eventually, but the players should be testing every spell from their class or every boss & every mechanic etc and provide feedback if they like it or not in my opinion. Economy isn't the priority here "at this specific time" if you ask me, it's if people are enjoying the game and it's mechanics.

Speaking strictly as a developer now, EA is meant to be an alpha, beta at best, you and me should be happy that nobody found an exploit to just truncate the databases in full, that's the reality. "duping" is the least of the problems an EA could've had, there's way more catastrophic things that could've happened, trust me on this if you'd like.

As for the hacked accounts, allow me to not take any positions, I have my reservations of why those people got 'hacked' so it might as well be irrelevant to GGG and their systems, I'd like to leave it at that if possible.


you wrote so much and offered ZERO insight.

how does duping effect the economy? you need to use some thinking skills mate.

it's nothing but sickening tbh

Yes, it was a legit question and I explained why I don't understand. But hey, that's your opinion, fine.

I don't see you offering any explanations on sincere questions though so, I guess conversation isn't why you're in a "forum". That's fine as well.

Not much more to say at this point.

Nothing you passive-aggressively spewed towards me or others in this thread or how you yourself describe you treating your colleagues leads me to believe that you earned any.
Incredible how whiny this reads. Just boot any other game if it is so unbearable rather than spew your vitriol into the public eye out of some insufferable urge to have your incredibly important opinion heard. Just let the kiwis go on vacation, they've been on crunch OT since 2020 you insufferable twat.
Gambling addiction means that I win more than you do.

So me needing to run code reviews and accepting them before code is released is something you consider as "bad" treatment.

Ok, when you get to work in development because most likely you're not, we can rediscuss, the whole point of this is for me and only me to be blamed and keep all of them safe, that's quite the opposite of treating anyone bad if you ask me, but all good :).

You mean me?


No I mean your recent conversation partner. He likes to make things up and then get highly offended and aggressive when you call him out. And he never ever elaborates or even responds to the challenges brought up. Just pulls a full 180 and goes full personal and insufferable.
Starting anew....with PoE 2

Oh well, it is what it is, can't do much about it other than still try to calmly reply.

I am on the other side, I'm starting to think that I'm getting too old for a forum even though some conversations are really interesting, the overall "norms of toxicity" and whatever comes with it takes me back some 30 years to my irc days.

Anyway, I'm mumbling atm and side-tracking the topic, sorry.
