@TenCent: The Actual Numbers show the Fanboys are the Minority

https://steamcharts.com/app/2694490#3m playing 7 min ago 144,690 24-hour peak 234,448 all-time peak 578,562 So not only did you fail to get back 50% of the original EA player base with this patch, you have lost over 90k players ... IN LESS THAN A DAY. Clearly those calling everyone whiners are in a very small minority. Can POE2 keep going with only 20k players I wonder? Is that enough financial base for an MTX only product? Clearly not. Let me help you GGG (really TenCent) with some reality. Even the bean counters at TenCent have to see this is not economically viable. SLOWING PLAYERS TO A CRAWL IS NOT ENGAGING. Nor is it actually viable. Elden Ring and Dark souls have micro engagements with 1 to 2 enemies. More than that and you probably die. With 15 mobs coming at you, not even the best of players will be able to solve a quantum physics problem while catching a fly with a pair of chopsticks to down an enemy. You either need A LOT FEWER engagements that are this hard or make the monsters weaker. Even with that weakness, having to pull off difficult combination hits to reach a zero base potential is not a viable gaming plan. Take huntress. You heed to parry an enemy then disengage then use the frenzy charge to charge a spear throw and then whirl that into a fire tornado. If you actually accomplish this things should just die all over. In reality you need that to get BASELINE damage. That is expected of every player and every engagement and it is ludicrous. You guys don't play your own product, that much is clear. If you did there is no way this gets past the drawing board. So go on fan boys ... flame away. The numbers above show that its us "complainers" that are right. All your ad-hominem attacks wont keep the lights on at GGG. The reality is this was a HUGE MISSED CHANCE. The complainers are not asking for an I win button. However they are asking about a feasible play. And making videos mocking peoples feedback is a good way to go out of business. So TenCent ... you have a CHOICE to make. Make a game to cater to 10% of your potential consumer base or start listening to us. Last edited by Kraythax#2592 on Apr 5, 2025, 10:39:39 PM Last bumped on Apr 6, 2025, 12:09:38 PM

Pathetic. Hope the devs stand their ground so we don't have anothe d4 or LE clone. Let us have something unique for once.

" Unique is good. 20k player base is not financially viable for a FTP game. |

+∞ Preach!
When game developers ignore the criticism that would improve their game, the game fails.
Just because a game receives a great amount of praise vs. only a small amount of criticism does not mean to call it a day and make a foolish misplaced assumption that it is perfect. (me) |

How is this feedback?
Mash the clean

" There is lots of feedback in the post. You just let me know what parts are not feedback. |
|
" Its not feedback. It's blackmail trying to turn the game into a D4 or LE clone | |
" How on EARTH could I, random guy on the internet, blackmail the multi billion dollar corporation TenCent. The BEST I could hope for is they read my post and nod that the numbers are way off. I couldn't even expect to get a job with them as for sure they couldn't match my current salary. My only hope is they fix a game I have loved for over a decade. My off time, unwind time has been spent in POE for that long. Last edited by Kraythax#2592 on Apr 5, 2025, 10:45:04 PM
