Extension of Legacy League

Thank you very much! I am very happy about this ^^

First of all, I do not appreciate you not being honest about not wanting to allocate resources to creation of another filler league and posting this extension as a favor to "overwhelming majority" of people. I do, however, understand that this is the smart decision and will have positive impact on 3.0...just be honest next time, we will understand.
Secondly, I was really looking forward to having my stuff transferred to standard an play there, maybe sort that mess of a stash I have there...I really hope you will give us some option to transfer legacy chars and items to standard if we do not want to continue playing legacy (as personally, it was the least enjoyable league for me, even talisman had less item management...)

Very sad about this. This game is at it's best in a somewhat fresh economy and honestly legacy league is very boring. Nothing meaningful left to do in the current league -.-

Oh well. See you in 3.0.

i don't understand your point. all they do is prolong legacy. you only got a disadvantage if you wanted your legacy stuff in standard.

even if they started a new temp league, what mods should it have which arent already available in legacy?

using dev time to invent new stuff for a 2 month league would have been a waste, that time is better spent debugging 3.0

To me the main attraction of a league isn't the league mechanics (such as breach or whatever). It's the fresh economy. To me this game becomes quite dull after the first 4 weeks or so.

Hell - they could just redo legacy league as a fresh 1 or 2 month league and I would be glad. They don't have to invent anything new.

This is literally the single best decision I've seen GGG make. Legacy league is the best league yet and will probably remain the best league ever for all-time in my opinion due to what it provides (wide access to all previous league content including league unqiues and hopefully all future leagues as they end,) and I will be glad to see it stay as long as it can and hopefully then be integrated into the main game at unusually as-is rates (e.g. still high rate of finding leaguestones instead of the much lower rates of league mechanics in the main game as has been common for previous league integrations.)

Thank you. This greatly increases the odds I'll finally buy a pack, though I'm still kind of waiting for confirmation of Legacy being integrated for that - high-rate Legacy league content in the main game and future leagues will GREATLY increase Path of Exile's value to me long-term.

Count me in the "Spent all legacy currency on items in preparation for standard" group. :(

I'm glad to see the league stay active. The leagues never last long enough for me, and this leaves me largely disappointed with the watered-down versions we get when some league mechanics get integrated with the core game.

I'm very hopeful that Legacy League gets rolled into Standard - but not part of core+"current running league" (making standard have a purpose of having access to all content, and leagues introducing the new stuff as a testbed), with new leaguestones added for each new league. Also, I hope to see rare and unique versions added. Ideally, you'd just let us chose the 3 base leagues to be running at all times instead of white stones, and add blue+ stones to the slots to add their modifiers to your chosen leagues)

I think the schedule is pressing and they made the decision to not spend time on creating events and instead use those resources to get a somewhat timely release going. Seems fine to me. - Just my thoughts reading, seems I always try to read between the lines ^^.

If it doesn't require too many resources I could imagine a few races, maybe a race weekend, rewarding beta keys for finishing ( or top 10 ) could breath some life into server and twitch population for a bit inbetween without too many sacrifices ? Since I am not a racer I dont care though - was just a thought.

Edit : NVM - the events seem to still take place

Great News, i'm loving this league!

Not a huge fan of this decision. Been spending my currency like it was ending on the 29th. I didn't find legacy league that fun really. Too much inventory management even with 20+ tabs, I can't even imagine the people playing with 4 how they are organizing their stuff.

Please make the races epic :), a month race + several small races would be much appreciated.

Will continue to support GGG in w/e they do, hoping that fall of oriath supporter pack comes with some sexy stuff.

Thank you!

I appreciate the extra time for Legacy league. I'm really enjoying this league and love the extra time to get a few more challenges than I originally planned (because I'm not the 1% in terms of available time to invest in playing PoE).
