Now that 3.26 is indefinitely delayed, can we talk about making POE2 more like POE1?

Absolutely not. They said they wanted to make a different, slower and more tactical game. Let them make that and let's see what the target audience will be like.

Then they should keep their promise and continue POE1 development unaffected. Pick one. POE2 becomes more like POE1, or they honor their commitment to the POE1 players.


Naw. You want PoE 1, go boot it up.

Can you elaborate, why is PoE2 struggling, in what ways?


Its a barebone game right now with maybe 30% of its planned content released (skills, classes, weapontypes etc) and its got so many bugs it would take a dedicated team MONTHS to clear them out.

Additionally it is losing active players rapidly because there isnt enough skill/support/class combinations out there to keep people experimenting with different types of gameplay. And for the skills that currently are available half of them are under-tuned, the other half overpowered.

In PoE1 you might get tired of the league mechanics and watered down economy after a month but there is enough experimentation potential to keep you going for a LONG time


That one month break hurt PoE2 pretty bad. It seems like GGG actually thought that PoE2 was in a good condition to release, and that a month of player testing would simply give them enough feedback on what to improve.

It's too bad that GGG already has a negative track record when it comes to releasing patches that are bug-free, balanced and/or don't have any game breaking abuses/issues.
I personally would prefer tha PoE 2 never happened. It's a disaster.

YEst has more players than POE1. That is the definition of succeedign, not of struggling. If iwth 1/3rd of its content is has more players it is a success.

At the moment probably true. But POE1 was a success for over 10 years. Only time will tell whats happening with POE2. Sometimes the hottest fires burn fast.

Hey Jonathan, Dark souls is another type of game. I love dark souls as well but it doesn't fit into path of exile at all. Path of exile 1 is better in every single way other than campaign, graphics and WASD.

Have a nice day Jonathan.
