Mandatory for those who wish to experience the unique character customization available ONLY after enduring it.
MANDATORY.
Also, this game is over for normal people after 80, 90 or 100 at which point it enters the redundancy state.

So kinda like it's mandatory to 6-link your gear, if you want to experience the unique character customization that a 6-link provides?
You want the Asc points, go get them. But they are not mandatory for progression, not even to lvl 100.

when will you guys move on? at this point it is approaching health hazard situation..
You crow about irrelevant nonsense that no one cares about except for you and a few Internet Trolls. Like I said. I would assume that percent of alt accounts in the general forum is about the same as in the labyrinth threads. You've offered absolutely nothing to indicate otherwise.
edit: Actually the only relevance to alt accounts to this thread is if there is a significant percentage of posters on the list that have made a significant number of just a few anti-labyrinth posts. This would be an even easier thing for you or one of your Internet Troll buddies to prove.
Over 280 threads discussing labyrinth problems with over 680 posters in support Put up or shut up!

Those developers are the ones that turned my favorite game of all time into utter SHIT. FUCK 'EM for that!!!! But the good news is that GGG is smart and successful. They are the ones that created my favorite game of all time afterall. I believe that they now recognize their mistake, thanks in large part to this thread. Do not despair Regulator, they will likely fix this horrible terrible mistake in the 3.0 release.
Over 430 threads discussing labyrinth problems with over 1040 posters in support (thread # 1702621) Thank you all! GGG will implement a different method for ascension in PoE2. Retired! Last edited by Turtledove#4014 on Dec 25, 2016, 2:26:23 PM

I didn't ever say they are mandatory for progression. They are mandatory as part of character customization. You know, the thing that rpg games are all about.

Ok, I'd still not call them mandatory, just a "quite powerful boost to your char". Definitely they are too sweet to ignore, that's for sure.

This over-dramatization is why I have a hard time to take you guys seriously. (and the same goes for GGG, if anyone of them is reading this)
If before Ascendancy, PoE was your favourite game, then I have good news: you can completely ignore Ascendancy, because it goes in parallel with the rest of the content, and play the game as you've played it before.
As an added bonus you'll get slightly harder content, which is welcome, since PoE is too easy anyway (until you get into red maps, at least)

In many cases, they're not only just a boost. Some offer unique opportunities unavailable elsewhere in PoE.
This makes ascendancies mandatory for traditional rpg/arpg players.

And that's fine. Yes we can, to an extent. But the game has and will continue to be adjusted to take into account the power creep introduced by the introduction of the labyrinth.
So my wallet stays shut and my mouth remains open.

I did ignore the ascendancy points for a release or so and played PoE pretty much as I did before. After GGG made some adjustments to the "power creep" problem then I suffered through the labyrinth for a season. I also took a few breaks from PoE over this period of time to play other games for the first time since loading PoE 3.5 years ago. I now just play Grim Dawn except when my wife wants to play PoE, since she doesn't like playing solo. I really don't care if you believe me or not. At least for me, GGG turned PoE into a boring and tedious game with labyrinth (translate to utter SHIT since it is now so bad I no longer play it, except for the stated exception). I hasten to add that after giving GGG almost $400 they haven't seen a penny from me since labyrinth was released.

I am sure they respect your opinion, just as much as you respect their hard work. They have been showing you just how much your opinion means to them for months. Hopefully they will continue to do so, while you and yours continue to throw tantrums like a bunch of 4 year olds.
