Poe1 open beta had 6 classes, like Poe2. It had no endgame at all (Poe2 has 4 mechanics and bosses). Not even Atziri was in the game. No bosses. No mechanics. Atlas of Worlds (v1) was only added after Malachai. And it was just map without any skill trees etc. at all. Also you can make great builds in Poe2 EA. Just use the Tempest Flurry or Temporalis. Poe1 had no good fast builds at all. poe 1 has endless edge and mid of closed beta already has maps meanwhile poe 2 already held their own closed beta. Apple to apple comparison is poe 1 open beta to poe 2 EA. also, ascendency is added in poe 1 2.2 patch This is the start of forum signature: I am not a GGG employee.

nobody asked them to shut down POE1 so we can have a sequel with only ritual and breach for an end game and a campaign that takes 10x longer. Gaming is dead.	Posted by Anton__Chigur#9285 on Mar 12, 2025, 2:09:25 AM Quote this Post

Tell that to all the "POG" , "RUE is cat" comentors on the announcement pages...Seems like it's not dead to them ghouls. Never invite Vorana, Last To Fall at a beer party.

Which unfortunately is a fate worse than cancer...soon enough when you will talk about gaming companies you will just say, "o my look at that poor company, it has Blizzard, what a fate :(((" Never invite Vorana, Last To Fall at a beer party.

Former owners Christopher W., Jonathan R., and Erik O. have sold all their shares to SIXJOY. They no longer hold any ownership stakes but remain listed as directors—positions that SIXJOY can revoke at any time. You can verify this information through the official New Zealand Companies Office: [Official Company Records](https://app.companiesoffice.govt.nz/companies/app/ui/pages/companies/1887410/documents) Additionally, there are unconfirmed rumors suggesting that Christopher W. hasn’t been present in the office for an extended period. Make of this what you will. This is such a sad news to me, but it explains a lot, I guess :( If this is even remotely true, it doesnt spell good for GGG and the future of the POE1/POE2 franchises. Chris was the beating heart of it all, hes been absent from the public light for months or a year or more... and POE2 has stumbled a lot coming out of the gate even with its concurrent playercount. Just a lot of bad decisions by jonathan and team. Now, if they've sold their shares, Im very worried that design direction and decisions will be tied more to $$ and not to the health of the game and respecting its players... Its LE and D4's time to climb up a few rungs IMO.	Posted by cesmode#5569 on Mar 12, 2025, 9:12:34 AM Quote this Post
