>One CANNOT release a game with power creep. It is LITERALLY impossible
I get your point but you have to account for the fact that the game is not in a vacuum, there's a prior game with an identical name. So you have a point of reference for power creep.
And either way, GGG managed to tack on power creep in record time anyway (quickly making GCPs give 5% instead of 1% for no good reason whatsoever, for example). There's already power creep in the game compared to the initial POE2 release.
