PoE 2 has lost over 80% of its players in 3 months.

This number will keep climbing so long as GGG maintains this inane, month(s)-long delay between addressing Game Balance.

The only game in town that needs to redo Act 1, 2, and 3 two times.

I'm thinking if they release Act 4, 5, and 6. Do we need to redo Act 4, 5, and 6 as Cruel again.

D2 also did not have any endgame save for Mephisto runs, barely any of the QoL features modern games are expected to have etc. One small problem - that was quarter of a CENTURY ago.

Last time I checked, the year is 2025 and they don't really sell cars without AC/power steering, monochrome cellphones with buttons and console game cartridges that lose your saved games when their batteries run out anymore...

Don't worry. In 0.2 they ll add act 4 and you ll have to run 4 acts two times )
Good thing is, though, acts is the only enjoyable content in this game.

GGG maintained its consistent style.
Just stick to your obsession.
Players like to play or not. I don't care.

Any another arpgs lost over 99% of its players in 3 months)

Chris's takover of the game with his inane design design decisions will keep driving people away. Though it really doesnt matter. They got their money.

As someone who never played POE1, this is why I uninstalled PoE2. After Technical Fixes/Performance Optimization, Game Balance is the most important aspect of design in my opinion. The devs electing to ignore balance except for when they want to do a 'reset' cemented my disinterest.
