POE 1 Players.......what the heck yall on about?

Seriously, the game was released 23 October 2013. Over a decade of leagues and play time. Like all games, sequels eventually make it out, and with it comes changes.

Time to let go....New game, new development.

Get over it

GGG doesnt care about the OGs, nor should they. POE 2 attracted a huge new audience, and thats who they should focus on. Some OGs will come over which is great, the rest of you, honestly no one cares. Move on

We OG's financed that on false promises (kindly said).

IDK man, was wondering that myself.

Cool you and the ones with similar opinions can keep GGG going now , Im done with them , they told us a thousand times this wouldn't happen , PoE 1 was a "forever"( their words) game.


We will see how long PoE 2 elden ring zoomers last when a new league happens and they have to start over and redo that slog of a campaign they all claim to love.

I would have bounced between games , i would have supported both , i will not support them anymore since playing PoE 2 directly lead to the death of PoE 1.



Passing the torch to people like you that are happy being lied to.

The difference between us is I never believed for one minute given the size of their studio they were going to be able to sustain development on both games. Especially given the immense hype of the new game.

Anyone who actually thought they would, yall are absurd and illogical.

Also given how massively successful their launch of POE 2 was, with the millions of players that bought the game, it would be absurdly stupid of them to focus on an "OLD" outdated ARPG that had such a tiny player base to begin with.

Come on people, use your brain for 1 second.

Time to let go, POE 1 has what? 20k players? POE2 is still maintaining close to 200k (steam only stats)? Which would you focus on? I would venture to guess not even 10% of POE2s playerbase has any interest in the overbloated crap game of POE 1. It's dead, we are in 2025, time to move on, evolve, and focus on the new generation of players POE 2 has attracted.

I've spent 10x more on PoE than any other game because the Devs have promised to continually make content. You are wrong in your statement, very much so. They RECENTLY said they would keep making content for PoE 1 so your logic is not only wrong, it's a lie.

You don't see the problem with them not telling the playerbase that the game was going to be split into POE1 and POE2 when they decided on it? And instead telling the playerbase well after the fact, well after POE1 players had put a lot of money, in good faith, towards POE1 being made better? And all that good faith money, instead of going to POE1, funneling to POE2?

You don't see the issue with the players being told POE1 would be supported, and POE2 would have minimal impact on POE1? And now being told that they have to wait an indefinite amount of time? After players have already waited 3 more months than usual for a new league?

Look, I figured it would be an uphill battle, but that does not excuse the fact that they are using money from POE1 to bankroll POE2 and leaving POE1 in the dust and leaving the players in the dust after they said it wouldn't happen.

then you got your answer.

we believed them, they lied (not so politely said anymore)

case closed.
