I am quite sure that the GGG crew works way more efficient than the Blizzard crew. This might all be due to motivation, but I find updating patching things in Blizzard games quite lackluster.

1. Technical issues can go for days to a week.
2. Easy to fix bugs that break the game experience can linger up to a month.
3. Actually balancing and properly patching the game will take up several months.
4. Bad communication towards their customers.
4. Big content updates only come with payment, every little thing one could purchase in game comes at ridiculous prices. (From someone that things many things in PoE are a bit overpriced, or that there is a lack of quantity in quality low prices transactions, that should bring in mass low threshold customers. Use to think expensive exclusive content lacked (1st bunch of mtx at launch), now it is vice versa).

In PoE we had (and have) weekly and bi-weekly content updates. We have logs and communication on issues, small hotfix patches and the free to play big content patches every 4 months or so, not mentioning what basically are free game expansions roughly each year.

All that with a far smaller starting budget and a far smaller team or access to available talent. (I mean in terms of graphics, engine and a few other things you can see who has the bigger budget to throw around).

This tells me that either Blizzard is a total mess on the inside or more likely very few of their employees are actually motivated workers or employees that enjoy their work. I am kind of leaning towards the latter as you hear about a constant stream of developers leaving Blizzard when once they raked up the experience.

You say D3 is not difficult in the slightest, then please elaborate on the wonderful complicated system that is in place in PoE, don't worry i'll wait.. Nothing but RNG wall after RNG wall, no skill is needed whatsoever if lady luck is on your side, the game is a giant roulette wheel and all you need to do is get lucky and the game is easy. The combat is stale, no need for any sort of thinking whatsoever due to the blatant gear checks in game that are supposed to be 'difficult'.. As soon as you pass the RNG wall you just hold right click and the game is trivial, if you don't desync a thousand times LOL. And I think you'll find D3 has a lot more meta games in place than PoE does now, it's okay to live in denial though I get it.


PoE = Frustration, not difficulty.

HAHA POE is the greatest game, trumps D3 in every way.

If POE took a dump and that dump took a dump, and a rat ate that dump, D3 would be Jay wilson's dump.

RoS isn't the work of Jay Wilson, he was fired over a year ago, so please research before making your self look like an idiot :)

Now, if only GGG responded to the "crappy pvp" issue like they respond to Microtransaction issues, PoE would actually be 100% more enjoyable.

It's sad and pathetic.
