I did not need anything restored but It will be still fun to listen to this.
GGG sometimes releases league and patch that just does not fit me, but i respect the company and vision behind changes made. One very big arpg was released recently and after playing it It made me value any sort of vision a lot more. Because I've realized it is possible to create game with no vision at all and it shows.
I feel pretty, Oh, so pretty,
I feel pretty, and witty and gay,
And I pity Any girl who isn’t me today!

This was a good interview. Always love hearing Chris talk in-depth about PoE.

Melee improvements to PoE 1 in approximately 10 years. Got it :P

Decent interview. Lots of good answers to good questions.
Sometimes, just sometimes, you should really consider adapting to the world, instead of demanding that the world adapts to you.
Nothing said here mitigates my disappointment with PoE 2 or the future of PoE1.

The biggest piece of news for me is that Chris Wilson is no longer married.
Ascension tied to Lab is the worst thing GGG has done...apart from GGG's philosophy on Trading. Oh and Gambling Loot boxes. And selling out to tencent.

I used to love GGG. I supported to ensure GGG remained independent, now I just wish I could get my money back. -_-
