PoE 4.0

I know it used to be what they called for PoE2.
But the fact that we're running on version 3.xx for a very long time.
Now PoE2 is in early access.
Maybe it's a good idea to think about what would the PoE 4.0 will brings.

It might not be anytime soon since it might slipped through people's mind that we'd been running 3.xx for much longer than the 0.xx 1.xx or 2.xx

Many people expressing their intention of sticking with PoE1 in hope that GGG will keep bringing new leagues even if they're just some recycle leagues.

But I think differently, well maybe not much.

I don't know how successful GGG is, but it's apparent that PoE1 and PoE2 are moving toward different directions.

Players a splitted. Some would rather not play PoE2 again since it's not their cup of tea. Some would wait for more updates since the game lacking a lot. Some are enjoying PoE2. Of course there are also people whom enjoyed PoE2 but also waiting for PoE1 new league for a change of pace.

That's why maybe consider hiring more people ?
If you're willing to take perma WFH intern, then I'd even willing to study more stuffs just because I want PoE1 to continued.

Nah I'm not begging for job. I'm begging for PoE1 new league.

=============

Here when we're looking forward, we can't just consider keep playing recycle leagues and continued on 3.xx forever right?

Even the most hardcore fans would lost interest and move on one day if they have enough of the game.

That's why if we can look forward to PoE 4.0

Maybe we'd find something to hype while waiting.

Y'know maybe the fourth ascendancy for everyone and the second for scion ?

Just kidding, but also interesting to think about.

Give players more choices and allowed players to have fun.

I mean we shouldn't need to grind for hundreds of hours to finish a single character right ?

There are many builds we could play, why stuck with just a few characters per league ?

Allowed players to reach the top easier than before would allowed them to enjoy PoE more.

Of course the "professional players" wouldn't be happy because they need time consuming things to do.

But it's different when you only have like 2 to 4 hours each day to play the game.

Some people can only play a single character for the entire league and they're still far from maxxing the character because of the intense grind required.

It's already 2025. I don't think we need the game with minimal contents just to waste our time.

Allow us to have fun. You're getting old if you think grinding for a thousand hours is fine.

Consider we could live for 80 years, we only have around 701280 hours to live.

Even if the character is maxxed, do you think nobody will continued with such a strong character just to play the game ?

There should be a limit to how long the progression could extend.

I played many games without character progression, they're fun enough to play until the stages ran out.

Some games even fun enough to play for multiple times.

PoE1 for me is fun when I don't need to worry too much about the power of my character. I can just keep killing mobs to have fun.

The only reason I want to become more powerful is because the mobs quantity kinda bound with the difficulties. It's not something that I like but it can't be help.

Y'know maybe think about why Vampire survivor was so fun to play. PoE1 got much higher potential to reach, it's a shame that it's too grindy to get there.
