Would it kill you to add an atlas node to disable breach?

Sooooo sick of seeing it this season. Not even worth the time it takes to do, and it's not even as fun as the old breach.

Everyone knows people LOVE "defend the npc" and escort missions in video games... right? Right?

Would be shocked if they ever do that. If you dont want to engage with the league mechanic, just dont select the league option. Standard is breach free.

Defending is your choice, you can choose to ignore it. The walls are the biggest issue and need to be addressed

Imagine if the affliction league mechanic automatically juiced every mob on the map with huge numbers of wisps as soon you started. Your character is then brutally murdered with no alternative.

Ya, I don't think that league would have been as popular then.

Your statement is correct, but if you are using it as a comparison to Keepers league adding some extra mobs in the map...

go play standard league if you don't like the temp league's mechanic. There is an option to disable the old Breach too

Yes, I'd love that. The stupid walls everywhere makes traversal in certain areas annoying af, as your projectiles collide with the walls. Sooooo annoying when it's an area with a lot of doorways. Constantly getting blocked is annoying the absolute crap out of me. Running campaign is at times much more frustrating.

I can't understand GGG why they needed this.
The whole mechanics of the league boils down to defending something from a horde of super fast and easy kill monsters, while standing in one place.
Basically, the whole time you have to focus on the red dots that are approaching in swarms.
I don't think this is a good game mechanic for POE.

I completely agree with you.

Oh my god, really? These people with their “go play Standard” arguments – there's nothing more ridiculous in the world. Absolutely ridiculous.
It's fascinating what goes on in some people's brains and minds when they can't even register that Standard and Season are two completely different game modifications.
The only logical explanation would be that they actually believe you play the season for the new content and not for the reset, as if there would be a reset in Standard. Everyone understands that, you can't have that little brainpower and thinking ability, but it actually seems to be the case, fascinating.

It would literally kills them to see PoE1 player enjoying the game that they are about to pull the plugs.
