BLATANT DISRESPECT A SLAP TO THE FACE TO CONSOLE PLAYERS

To Grinding Gear Games,

At this point, it’s beyond clear that you have zero respect for your console player base. The upcoming Path of Exile 2 race is not just unbalanced—it’s a complete joke, an insult to every console player who trusted you to deliver a fair experience. You marketed PoE2 as a game built for everyone, yet here we are, watching you rig competitive events in favor of PC players while console players are left in the dust.

This isn’t just “oversight.” It’s blatant negligence. You knew exactly what you were doing when you made cross-platform races without addressing the obvious advantages PC players have:

Instant skill allocation while console players fumble through a slow, clunky UI

Faster map navigation while console players have to stop moving just to check their map

Quick and efficient shopping while console players struggle with controller-based torture menus

Massively faster load times, frame rates, and precision movement—things that directly impact a race


This is like throwing a one-armed boxer into the ring against a heavyweight champion and telling them it’s a fair fight. It’s not just unfair—it’s a straight-up scam.

And here’s where it gets real: I will personally put down thousands of dollars to ensure the entire gaming community hears about this. I will pay top influencers to expose how you have lied to your console player base and created a race that guarantees they will lose. This isn’t a small complaint—it’s a full-scale movement.

You either:

1. Implement mouse and keyboard support for consoles to at least give them a chance.


2. Separate PC and console leaderboards so this farce isn’t passed off as “competition.”



Failing to do this will not be forgotten.

Your move, GGG. But make it quick—because I won’t be the only one making noise about this.

Sincerely,
A Console Player Who Won’t Be Ignored

Nothing about the console experience is fair compared to PC players. It's laughable to think otherwise.

All other things aside, load times and frame rates ain't gunna change. You're asking for segregation of races (the contest, not the human-type) based on computing power as well here, which is insane. That'd be like having to provide your PC specs to GGG then them creating a "handicap" for having a K&M to determine which "class" you're in.

Just straight separating PC from console would work for obvious reasons, but I don't think there can ever be a world where PC and console compete together on a fair playing field.

Lmao. What are you gonna do about it? Exactly, nothing. Good luck though.

Interestingly, a different account that I swore was a bot spamming the same thing in every thread a week or two ago was using "Failing to do this will not be forgotten" or something VERY similar in every message...

gotta love the console cheaters using mouse and keyboard. And now they are entitled xD

I can see the benefit of having a PC race and a console race. Doesn’t seem too far fetched. PC is a lot easier to move on than console (items and crafting and what not)

No you won't, you're just emotionnally driven right now so you say a lot of things that won't happens, it sounds like you should put the controller down and come back later on.

Also since when it's fair between PC and console users? it's never fair and PC users always have the advantage. Instead of spending thousand of $ lobbying for a stupid cause, spend it on a gaming computer instead.

And here i am thinking the opposite, they cater too much to console andys.
The whole wasd combat is just a result of console players and i dislike how bad kb+m gaming feels now
