What went wrong in the development of poe 2? Is it possible that poe 2 will be canceled?
|
The biggest decider for me is will the team be split after the release of PoE2 expansion?
The unification of their development team behind some leagues would really be nice to see... Honestly been sitting here daydreaming about that one since the news that they were devoting resources to the development of PoE2. Innocence forgives you

Probably you have not seen that GGG is highly profitable they even released their economic records as i remember something like that.

It was already stated POE 2 requires them to rebuild all the character animations for every piece of cosmetic from the ground up
The reason your character runs like dog poop in POE is because it uses one crappy animation and just speeds it up In POE 2 every frame of animation will be re done from scratch and then again for each movement speed. It's about as time consuming and expensive as creating Diablo 4 or GTA 6 Give credit where it's due, Last Epoch animates like dog poop also and GGG is spending a lot of money and time to redo everything from scratch for POE 2 This is why it's called POE 2 because it is a brand new game when you have to spend this amount of time and money to do these animations. This is irrespective of what the liars here will tell you about POE being the same game as POE 2.

" I suppose it can be called a new game in the same way D2R might have been called a new game. If you're willing to call D2R a new game, and POE2 is notably different in the graphics/animations department, then I guess calling it a new game from that perspective isn't a stretch I suppose. It's all semantics though; I personally view it as a big expansion. Last edited by Nubatron on Mar 13, 2023, 2:57:33 PM

" It's just PoE version 4.0 with a larger overhaul including a big content patch. PoE2 is going to be the same game so better don't spread your "Asmongold opinions" across the forum, cause these "opinions or expectations " are literally lies cause PoE2 is not a new game. Flames and madness. I'm so glad I didn't miss the fun.

" Yes for all intents and purposes D2R is a new game. Let's see D2R a game made in 2021, uses one of the most advanced graphic engines ever seen up there with the latest God of War from Sony Santa Monica or the latest Last of Us series. Sold 5 million copies in it's first year of release, which puts it up there as one of the best selling titles of 2022. This is why it's called D2R and not D2 Let's see what else is a new game? Resident Evil 2 Remake Resident Evil 3 Remake Resident Evil 4 Remake. All the identical same game remade from scratch and sold for top dollar, yes it is called a new game just like POE 2 is a new game. The budget for POE 2 is around that you find from Sony or Rockstar. But the liars and clowns and trolls here will lie as usual and deny reality Look how Awesome my MTX Marauder RF looks

" GGG said during 2019's exilecon that a beta would be likely sometime in 2020, possibly near the end. Here's a quick article talking about as much, if you keyword search for beta. https://venturebeat.com/games/path-of-exile-2-announced-at-exilecon/ Obviously that's different from promising a beta, just to clarify.

Looking deeper because I really wondered where people were getting the idea from, I ended up looking for the on-site webpage using the Wayback Machine:
https://web.archive.org/web/20191218112723/http://www.pathofexile.com/exilecon/one " "We're unlikely to start a Beta until at least very late 2020." | |

I didnt bother reading all the replies and sorry if its been said or not but GGG is clearly planning to release POE2 with the release of d4. They will not admit it but its clearly been their plan all along. If you think about all the delays to d4 and how its production has been a shit show , POE2 has almost been in a quiet lockstep with it. They dont want to release it beforehand because they understand that it is and will be its biggest competiotion. Mark my words , as soon as D4 has a firm release date is when we'll actually hear something new and valid about POE2.

" I mean....D4 releases in early June, and ExileCon is in late July. Why do you have to make it sound like you're making a shocking prediction? You still shouldn't expect PoE 2 to arrive until December at the earliest. But I imagine be waiting until next year, with how much people disliked GGG going mostly silent early into this league due to the holidays. |
