GGG sells currency for real money themselves through a 3rd party disguised website


Poe = 100% pay2win if you want

- buy currency for real money
- buy items with said currency
- win the game


I've always suspected things like that when I see how low drop rates are for me... but I'm paranoid. And crazy.

Normal sane people don't really believe this, do they?

My friend has been saying exactly this, about GGG orb selling for literally years now.

The only thing that only remotely resembles Pay 2 Win is extra stash tabs, but you don't need to buy any of them to make mad currency and beat Shaper (this can be connoted as winning the game I guess).

Has anyone beat shaper yet with only the 4 original stash tabs?
I have stashes, and most of those GGG apologists also have stashes.

They give an advantage in terms of efficiency, more currency, faster, more items, faster, more power, faster, more sells faster, less downtime, which in time means more currency, and so on.

As the league progresses the difference gets more noticeable.

But it's always there, since the first item you pick, your mindset is way different if you know you have the extra space, the listing tabs, the currency hyper efficient tab.

You can debate ages if you can win, or what does mean in this game.

You can't deny this grade of efficiency is suspect at best to call "quality of life".

Like, what the fuck is quality of life?



You don't "need" to get the tabs, but you are gonna have to deal with a lot of shit and waste time and opportunities if you go f2p.

At what point selling "quality of life" is not the same as imposing annoying and damaging restrictions to the players without those "quality of life" transactions?



You can get away with "visual only changes" as being almost 99.9% harmless, but "quality of life"?



How on earth could GGG sell to so many people the idea that "having an all around better experience in multiple aspect of the game as well as a tangible advantage" instead of a client or content update, should be a transaction?



In other news, Valve is gonna make the radar in CS GO a "quality of life" transaction, "it's not like this feature will help you land a head-shot", a cock sucking streamer said yesterday, while not getting any kind of financial benefit whatsoever, right...

Here's the obvious distinction: In POE you can make up for being cheap by spending more time. You can't make up for not having radar in CS GO.
Here's why i'm gonna answer even tho you say nothing about the whole logic, but went after the last ironic and hyperbolic example: it's so easy it's hilarious.

In cs go you can use sound to locate players nearby, you can hear where the sound comes with surprising accuracy since the '90s,

and you have a microphone for your team to transfer information, the rest you can see on the screen,

so with that you are pretty much set to go to have a better time than you would actually playing POE with 4 normal stashes.




PS: When an hyperbole fucks you over so hard you should just called it a day and go grind some shit to numb your brain a bit so it won't bother you so much how hard does your butt hurt when you fail to get away with a shitty two line off point response.

EDIT: error, he wrote 2 lines, not one, my bad.
