A Message to Path of Exile 1 Players

Really sad about this information, maybe it's time to quit POE forever. :/

❤️Nice! Take your time, and don't worry about any angry nerds

Well At least grim dawn is still a good game.

worst handling you could imagine.
poe2 sucks and poe1 is dead.
thanks for nothing.

Im actually quite mad about this.
In my mind its really bad to not work on the old game when its so popular as it is.
Ive been playing poe sence open beta, but now i dont know if i even wanna play anymore, and it goes for poe 2 aswell,
as i feel like GGG shits on the poe 1 players.
Someone said they felt betrayed, and i must admit that i feel that way to.
They really need to throw us a bone about the new league and some plans
they are thinking about, and it better be something BIG and not
some some small shit as boring league.

Ive spent alot of money on poe, cuz GGG deserved it with poe 1,
even if some things really bother me, its still a great fcking game!
But this just feels like shit, and i feel betrayed :(

As i said, they really gotta give us a bone here.
And i pray the next season is a Banger, or i think im out...

We as the poe 1 player base, has been beta testing every single of the last couple of leagues. They arraived in worse and worse condition. Settler had to ban people because they were printing divine orbs, while in necropolis when people were printing divines and magebloods, then that strategy got banned, while printing magebloods and mirrors in affliction was fine. The grip on the control of what is "allowed fun" has been tighter with each of the last 5 leagues.
We have collectively spent millions of hours doing free work for GGG, and then we are getting treated like this. Unacceptable. When TOTA was launched, then Chance to Flee support was a broken Meta gem. Let me repeat that: CHANCE TO FLEE SUPPORT WAS A MASSIVE META GEM!! Due to a lag of resources for testing. And many of us got used to the bugs, and expected massive exploitation due to the shipping conditions of the leagues.

I am fine with POE 1 being halted for now. But at least give me some way to cook up a new build. Give me everything since sentinel. Crucible, necropolis, affliction, and a way to apply wisps to all monsters in a map. Legacy tattoos, charms and give everybody 2-3 charm slots. This will create new farming metas, build metas, and challenges. give me a way to apply 10.000 of each wisps on the enemies, and give me the power to roll over such creatures, and I will be fine for a year! But leaving us with a dead league is not fine.

Its actually so sad... poe2 doesnt have enough content to have fun with it.. GGG PLSSSS RELEASE A NEW ECONOMY LEAGUE IN POE1 IDK LIKE SCOURGE LEAGUE OR OLD SYNDICATE OR AFFLICTION ANYTHING PLS PLS PLS PLS I DONT LIKE POE2 SLOW GAME

They abandoned poe1 to fix the dumpster fire that is poe2's endgame. lol. now you have 2 games on fire.

The absolute shittiest part is that they knew for months that 3.26 isnt coming any time soon and they waited until the last possible day to say it. wtf man...

And Support is still dead!!

>GGG: We were overconfident.
>Izaro: Overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer

There's a lot of justified negativity around this post and i understand it. But also want to express as much love and understanding as possible. I'm quite happy with every decision made so far and despite current state, this might have been the best possible outcome anyways for both GGG and the audience.
Maybe im biased because i loved every second of PoE2 as much as i did in PoE1. Maybe i have more understanding because im a game developer myself. But i do truly believe your (GGG) decisions are coming from the extreme passion for the game and with time, everyone will be happy again :>

i wonder after 1,5 years will he look us in the eyes and tell us to buy the supporter packs for the next league , GGG really think how and when you are gonna market your next league , it could be a fatal blow .

It's been a good run, time to move on...
