and completely ignored stuff that is not convenient: that release will be a MASSIVE change in gameplay without any testing (i dont consider alpha-testing testing from balance standpoint - esp that passive tree is still not frozen and release is in 3weeks).

you can ignore that - and pat each other with snide remarks about me or anyone else who is also worried. but issue remains: 1.0 is (from gameplay standpoint) a completely new game. trigger gems, massive changes to passive tree (i know it is still changing but that tree shown in gamespot video means 90% of builds is destroyed), new class (that seems to be the only class worth playing due to passive tree position), new items and skills. if you cant see the risk this creates..


Sid.. I have a feeling like you would me much .. much more happier Here. Fly little birdie.. fly away

Just because its full release doesn't mean there will be no more alpha and beta testing behind the scenes ;)
POE is a constantly evolving game, so expect balance changes, buffs and nerfs STILL!

what a nice community. slapping somebody just because he doesnt share your opinion.
so he should go and play diablo3 just because he is worried that 1.0 will do more harm then good?
you know what, if everybody who is worried that 1.0 will suck after watching the really bad trailer leave poe and go play something else, there would almost nobody left playing poe right now ...

just look at the "official trailer thread" on frontpage .. 80% of the people posted there are not satisfied with the trailer ... they all should go and play d3 now? ... thats one reason i am not going to support this game anymore, because of the community ... i dont want to invest money in something so that other idiots can enjoy the game i supported ... screw that ...
worst comm ever

You are part of the community and you are not part of any solution for problems the community may have.

I have to do with people like sidtherat at work. They cry out all the time in advance without having all the information. Just because they fear something they don't know yet and want to spread that fear. They do more harm than good.

It's not 1933 exorzist. A skill tree that may need a bit of re-balancing after release is not something we have to go on the fence about to prevent at all cost. We don't have to shoot birds with cannons.

We don't know what kind of testing went into these trigger gems. Maybe they were in testing in alpha for more than a year already. Point is, we don't know. And basing your (and I am using 'your' in the most generalized way possible) fear on a snapshot of an changing skilltree is laughable.

Sid, I agree with you, but you should know by now there is no point in posting on these forums unless you are going to praise the game. All that is left here seems to be immature fanboy children, I said months ago there is no point in any beta feedback at this point. Its a lost cause, let these fanboys ride the game right into the dirt.

The only reason its popular in the first place is because d3 brought back the love for ARPGS, d3 disappointed alot of people and they came here. The blind rage hate for d3 here shared by almost every singe fanboy is a tell tale.


I personally find this to be one of the worst communities I have been apart of, and I post on alot of game forums that I am playing, if I spend alot of time with the game.

So everyone who doesn't have the same idea of a good game as you is a 'fanboy'.
And everyone who doesn't suffer from premature rage is a short sighted lost cause.

Good thinking.
