would love it if POE 1 was Crossplatform, or at the very least the MTX was (stash tabs specifically)

I was introduced to POE 1 via Xbox, as that is what I had at the time. I fell in love with the game and eventually bought stash tabs.

Eventually, I got a PC, but never played POE 1 on it because my stash tabs were on console. Well, when POE 2 was launched and they said MTX would be transferred to POE 2, I was so ecstatic! This is, in my opinion, the biggest and best MTX decision any company has ever made; allowing players who bought MTX in one game to bring that same MTX with them to the new game... this is revolutionary to say the least...

Anyways, fast forward to present day and I have been playing a ton of POE 2. I have bought/upgraded a few supporter packs and I have used the points from my purchases to buy stash tabs, in both POE 1 and POE 2. My only gripe is that the stash tabs are only available in POE 2 and the Xbox version of POE 1.

I have wanted to play POE 1 on PC and, unfortunately, when I start to play, I see that I do not have access to the stash tabs :( . I know POE 1 PC, POE 1 Xbox, and POE 1 PlayStation are not crossplatform/crossplay, but I was really hoping that with the ability to bring MTX to POE 2, that we would also be able to bring that MTX to POE 1 PC/Console (just the MTX/stash tabs, not the loot inside them).

I love POE 1. It is a masterpiece game. I see the hope and potential for POE 2 to get there one day as well. My hope for the future of POE1 is that eventually it would be made with crossplatform/crossplay (across PC/Xbox/PlayStation), or at the very least, give players the ability to use the MTX on the various platforms.

I loved the fact that the console versions of POE 1 turned the Noticeboards into Trade Boards, enabling an in-game trading system (instead of using the website). That in itself is amazing. I also LOOOOOOOOOOVE the controls for POE console... They are by far the best controls I have used on any game. It makes navigating the UI very simple and hands down has some of the best QoL updates I have ever seen (even has some QoL changes from PC to console). I especially loved the combat controls, though I can see how useful the new controls are in POE 2, especially when it comes to aiming.

Anyways, I am getting a bit off track. Basically, I am wondering if there is any possibility of GGG ever allowing MTX (specifically stash tabs) to be shared across the POE 1 platforms? What are the chances? I know I must not be the only one wondering this...

Thanks for taking the time to read this, and sorry if I got off-track / repeated myself a bit. I love the series and wish nothing but the best for GGG, the games, and the players :)
Let's work together to make this world a better place :)
