So to be clear here my old supporter packs are going to be forever stuck on PS4 even after this merge. This is not good news not even a little.

no, they will move to ps5. But you can't move them to xbox or pc.

OK who cares if they move to ps5 thats a given what we want is to be able to use them on pc i have probably close to a grand worth of supporter packs there i cant use on pc or even buy again on pc to get the stuff back i really want.

I know lots of people who care, I've explained it to a lot of people who are sony only.
There's crossplay still, they can still crossplay they just can't swap mtxs across platforms...

new players often had to try 10 or more times to get a name that wasn't taken.

Main problem of the game especially for new players was discovered!

I was so okay with the delay because it meant i would get my old Playstation MTX.
My disappointment is immensurable and my day is ruined.

I can understand if Sony is against using MTX in PLaystation that are not bought from them, but the other way around should be absolutely possible, as GGG could just "gift" my PC Account the MTX i bought in Playstation, as its in their discretion.

Any possibility for account name change?

Unless Sony legal is more incompetent than they are greedy, the game developer agreement they have with GGG will have terms that say doing anything to encourage players to leave for other platforms is grounds to be kicked off PS entirely.

Yes. You have to contact support via email and then wait.

I am not interested in playing on the SONY platform again, much less migrating my MTX from PC to that console, I think that you (GGG) should find a way for me to use the MTX that I buy on that console and be able to use them on my PC account.

I don't see how complicated it is since you (GGG) received my payment for those MTX.

I'm not looking to offend anyone, rather I'm looking for a solution.

Above all, success so that everything goes wonderfully with this new delivery (PoE2)

If we have the maximum amount of characters allowed in PoE 1, will we have to either purchase more slots or delete old characters for PoE 2?

Why are you guys going down the Blizzard route by doing discriminator number labelled on accounts? Will I have to search accounts via the site by /account/view-profile/johndoe#6969 now?

This literally takes away the uniqueness to an account. If someone wants a certain name to their account they can already add a number beside the letters of chosen name. Why force this upon people who like their accounts?

Don't apologize for downtime. who cares poe 1 (just check steamcharts. Sorry I'm a big fan myself but the game is dead right now.).

I'm glad your work took less than a week, although you asked for 3 additional. with this serious problem of databases and MTX, because of which it was necessary to postpone all plans once again in centuries.

The 30 day daily average on Steam is 11k players at the moment. I certainly wouldn't call that dead.
