Back to misusing gaming terms? Thats a shame. Its just a content update or patch, like nearly every other game has. Mislabeling it as if its some kind of free expansion isn't going to bring new players in.

expansion
ɪkˈspanʃ(ə)n,ɛk-/Submit
noun
1.
the action of becoming larger or more extensive.

I know for a fact that both are happening with 1.1.

And you're right. It probably won't bring many new players. My hope is more that it helps get rid of old ones who should have moved on by now.

It was downgraded from a full expansion when they realised that Act 4 wasn't going to be a part of 1.1...realistically speaking, I don't think anyone was surprised.

It took Blizzard North a year to implement a full expansion for Diablo 2 after its release; we're barely six months into PoE's, and Blizzard North had much more in the way of resources at the time.

Consider this a courtesy, not an invitation for dialogue.

As usual, we're working on this content right up until the last minute.

i kinda hoped that youd change that - risky - approach and test stuff before releasing. stuff that was rushed almost universally was a mistake

- trigger gems
- act3x balance, polish and gfx performance
- domino fight as a 'surprise you die' encounter
- scion class that made practically almost all other classes redundant (great Ivalesco thread when he one by one shows that on examples). people are playing non-scions because they cannot stand her chatter and are used to 'old ways'/dont want to respec as other char but all but one of my builds would have been better if respecced as scion..
- Crown of Bad Balance.. how could you have missed it..

you are no longer a garage company and certain level of polish is expected. your infra is ok, your game balance and testing is a wild horse that you have issues taming

also - the way youve handled the pvp smells bad. on the d3 pvp 'bad' level
