Gratz GG! We're trouncing that "other game" :)

Great job. Keep up the good work. Don't give into the whiners. This is a haven for old school gamers.....no to auction houses....no to separate loot and a hell no for respec.

Races coming soon yay! need currency!

Great news, guys, keep up the awesome work!

My only concern is that you eventually break under the pressure of all the whiners (mostly spoiled kids who want "everything now and for free") and while making everything more "user friendly" and "according to modern standards", you dumb the whole game down... Please please pretty please, DON'T spoil this awesome jewel of a game for us old schoolers, who are used to work hard for our sweet rewards and to think when playing.

And on a profitable note - those kiddos won't stick here and spend any huge amount of cash, they will just quickly "get everything" and then jump to some other game. What you need to keep as a player base are us - the old schooler and fans of the genre by heart since early days...
*Kudos to you!*

Are there any planned new microtransactions? Or are you still getting community feedback on the current ones and on what people want in the future?

One thing bothers me though: Please do not touch the loot system, don't casualize it. If something, make it full FFA without the timers. But even with the timers it's ok.

POE has had FFA looting before and most players had asked for a change. The system now promotes more group play. The thing they do need to fix is the timers are too short for many ranged characters to get to the loot before it expires. It doesn't have to be anything as long as EQ, but some allowance for time to get there, and maybe a few brushes with intervening enemies...

Aside from a more equitable distrubution of drops, players who live to rush in and nab all the drops are often holding back on the fighting, spending their effort preserving their own life and scanning for the next drop to snaffle rather than contributing to the group. The players that are playing fairly have to break away from combat to grab their drops, which again doesn't help the battle.


Ninja looting is not a good thing.

Well done guys, such an awesome game... and more stability during euro evenings would be perfect..
