https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/1k8ny68/rory_rackham_has_left_ggg/ Considering all the OG crew are leaving they F****D the pooch and its over. If mark leaves might as well just delete POE1. I was initially happy for chris but now it seems he has sold us all out without caring what happened to the game he made, the people who played and or supported it. No words of parting, nothing. GGG really is now just a generic "AAA" studio pumping out crud for profit. The game is fucked its now official. Last bumped on Apr 29, 2025, 7:16:02 AM

" Yeah, that happens all the time in videogame development like in.... ummmm... Blizzard? Wait. " When a handful of senior figures all leave within a small time frame, it's a perfectly reasonable assumption that bad things are happening at the company. It might not be the case, but it's certainly not low on the list of likely causes. Last edited by Pathological#1188 on Apr 27, 2025, 4:17:31 AM

" Ha, I remember this post under every single statement that Blizzard made about a senior staff member leaving the company. (and there were many) U know what? It was never true and there was always a reason within the company that those people left. The games suffered from it ever single time too. Considering Rorys position in GGG and that he was probably one of the few PoE Devs in the company, it's a really bad sign for PoE. It also explains why Jonathan claimed there is no1 to lead PoEs development, because it seems they have a brain drain problem right now. I guess it's time we prepare ourselves for disappointment and maybe even the end of PoEs development very soon. |
