I can make it more fair, as I have my own ethnic name situation. To live, work, etc in Taiwan you need to have a Chinese name. Doesn't matter where you are from or if you can even speak/read/write Chinese. My wife chose mine for me years back, and it translates to "President Ma"--Taiwan's president at that time who she adored (until it became clear he was selling Taiwan out to China piece by piece, anyway).

I still get plenty of laughs and/or stunned disbelief any time I actually need to use my Chinese name for anything. There's a guy at the Ministry of Education who, even though he only sees me maybe once or twice a year at most, never fails to greet me with a laugh and a "Helloooo Mr. President!", followed by a mocking bow.

Well, I'm not fine with where the game is going (less speed/power, less 1-shots and yes, less sustain so that we still feel danger pls!). However, I'm not confident that where I would like to take it is what best serves the games' long term viability, mainly because I'm not confident that my preferences reflect that of the majority of people who play this game. PoE used to be much slower - that was also the time when the game was much smaller. Its success has occurred in tandem with the rise of the clearspeed meta. It's sad, but perhaps it was necessary.

Yeah many miss this...if they slow down game without too many speed mods and everything to the point, where you can actually see what is going on on the screen, that would feel amazing.

We need back more serious game, please remove this insane roll mods on maps and rare monsters and characters, to the point where you cant see and enjoy animations anymore.

We need more dark, grim environment and new sounds, epic music.

finally some good news. happy 6th anniversary :)

Ps. @ Charan quietly watches behind the scenes for 4.0.0. I hope his comeback is glorious and @GGG will listen to their hearts and hear Charans and ours cry for better balanced game, with 3 new classes and no more meta clear builds. Slower paced game with more control over everything with further improved graphics, animations, no more stupid speed mods, rework on most skill animations and effects, even less over all screen effects that cover everything, that you cant see where the danger is.

Lets be real now - you have a better chance at getting EA to remove their lootboxes with your "cry". Look at the game's past and current owners.

Such a beautiful fantasy.

1. Balance.
2. No forced meta bullshit.
3. Player control over gameplay outcomes.
4. Removal of onscreen vomit.
5. Clearer indications of danger.

These are all things for which players have been begging GGG for years now, with almost zero result. BEGGING.

If they have had so little success, then don't expect one disillusioned veteran to have more, even if he were inclined to return to what he considers a sinking ship.

Charan is Qarl. You guys didn't figure this out yet? He was a "whale" essentially a fake persona to get other players to not feel bad about buying in. Both are gone and thier/his/hers/its job is done. GGG has been bought out by a chinese conglomerate and is no longer needed.
