"Poe2 is dying."

If you continue on this path, the game will be over soon.

The player statistics confirm this.

GGG is literally losing money with PoE 2 and they still wont get their shit together, if they didnt release PoE 2 people would still be blasting in PoE 1 and breaking record peak player counts as always, when a new game cant grab people the way a 12 year old game was still doing, something is very wrong, but they seem adamant on their dumb vision and it will only get worse, just wait till Last Epoch patcc to come out and youll see 70%+ of the people still playing abandoning the ship, and this Last Epoch patch actually looks good and full of content and fun to be had, and i know who's getting my money now.

Its dying yet has more player numbers and better retention than POE1 has ever had.

Gotta love these posts

Can they even lose money? I thought they sold everything to Tencent. Would think they receive a fixed salary, which would explain why they hardly care about anything. It all went downhill when they sold the company.

I don't think it's dying.. but GGG needs to stop rushing.

They need to spend less time slowing down the players and more time slowing down their rushed development.

They need to playtest things in the same way that players are going to experience them. That starts with not ignoring what a fresh character in a new league feels like, and actually having a range of players with different experience levels playing the whole campaign and giving feedback prior to a release... AND people playtesting the endgame components.

I'm glad they're trying new things -- nobody wants them to be scared to take risks. But this patch was a pretty big L, and their response to the feedback they got was pretty disappointing imo.

Hopefully some humility puts them on the right path.

You were wrong in both your statements, that´s how stupid your reply was.
And besides that, PoE is a 12+ year old game, and PoE 2 is still worse at mantaining players, wich kinda says alot.

I dont want it to completly die.

I want people to leave and not give GGG any money and exposure at this point.

It leaves them with the options to get theyr shit together or abandon ship.

Eather way ive had enough of the current vomit they call an RPG.

And they need to replace some people at the lead, theres no questions about that.
If you are bad at your job, you have no place leading a team.

Facts:

1) There are more concurrent players playing POE2

2) POE2 has a higher league retention rate than POE1


Let me know if you need any more help!

PoE 1 was getting better numbers than PoE 2 except on release because of advertising, last PoE league settlers of kalguur had more concurrent players and kept them for longer than this PoE 2 league, so ill say again, youre wrong, and youre doubling it down, so youre also dumb, and btw

"-It's deceptive because PoE1 has numbers split between China and the rest of the world, while currently, PoE2 includes all players from China and elsewhere in it's Steam concurrent numbers, making it seem higher than it really is."

Taken from another post, so PoE 1 wasnt even counting the chinese because they had another client, PoE 2 is counting them, if you take them out the game is even more miserable when we go and compare the numbers.
