>>542990515 (OP)
So is all PoE1 gets some asset flips from PoE2? They're never going to be developing assets straight for PoE1, are they? Not giving them money till that policy changes.

>>542995503
Were not all the new pinnacle fights for Secrets of the Atlas original rigs?

>>542995832
They new bosses were so bad that I already purged them from my mind.

>>542995503
>So is all PoE1 gets some asset flips from PoE2?
That's been their MO since Harvest, sister!

One was a reskin of the Shaper

Debate me. You won't.

Eating feces builds character.

One man's feces is another man's feast

One man's feast is another man's feces

Excrement is a banquet. It's up to the pooper to write the menu.

>>543007039
conspiracy theory: they did this to keep the poe1 numbers low to push it into eos soon after.

>Keepers of the Flame

Any educated guess about the story/lore of this league?

>>543010598
Random sirus voicelines and die beams in all of your maps

>>543010598
something to tie in with why Monk in PoE2 has a Chayula related ascendancy? Like an order of monks who's job is to keep something safe to prevent the breach dimension from taking over ours

>>543012253
Could be hyper kino if the next leagues in PoE1 introduce the PoE2 classes

Kill monsters in circle, purple

>>543012720
I mean Settlers was introducing A4, I don't see why not.

>>543012907
I enjoy killing monsters in a circle

>>543010598
Keepers of the flame is most likely talking about whatever cult Monk comes from and will probably explain why its Xesht and not Xesht-Ula in poe2
I guess Chayula will be an ally or neutral at best, but no idea about Uul-netol.
The thing gestating in the teaser is probably Xesht, hopefully the dogshit atlas passive gets retconned or something.
Or they just completely come up with something new, breach had little to no lore anyways

>>543014876
Maybe they make it more interesting and actually have you become a follower of the Dreamer
But thats a generous assumption, considering GGG really like to drop the ball with lore sometimes (Kalandra)

>>543015153
Got lake was such a fucking shit league what the hell were they thinking

>>543012907
Look at that... I like killing enemies... in a circle... and with a purple color scheme, is 3.27 the best league?

>>543012907
This is just Legion. So best league of all time soon?

>>543018379
Legion was kill monsters in a line

Despite being a shit game poe2 has pretty nice aesthetics, I like how the new league's key art is kinda poe2-ified. If they add poe2's big glowy MAP COMPLETE popup I'll be happy

>>543018426
Not 4-5 way though.

Let's have a poe in review for this year.
>t16.5 maps
T17 mods are big shit. Everyone knows T17 mods are big shit.
>New currencies
Already forgot them to be honest
>Gear with the strands
Pretty bussin. Made a lot of damn good mid-grade items by tossing an essence or two on it.
>Random complaints
Strongboxes are too profitable for the difficulty. Abyss is way too tedious. Too many hordes. Takes too long. Way too many jewels. I like looking at loot, so I really dislike dump tab strategies. But damn bro that's a lot of abyss jewels. Just throw them all in a dump tab

>>543014876
it's implied that chayula is what actually lets the breach monsters get into wraeclast so I would be interested if they expanded on that

>>543017281
the loot was bad
the mechanic was basically just fancy alva temple

>>543018601
memory strands were pretty kino. I'm looking forward to using them more

>>543018596
those are gay

Should I league start a caster next league or just play PConc for the 12th time in a row

>>543017281
still absolutely boggles my mind that they decided to make poe's most mysterious and iconic character into some dumb owl that whines at you and barely matters

why are they bringing poe 2 shit into poe 1

>>543019253
Bro, the last "PoE1 only" league was Heist, all other leagues are either PoE 2 reused content or reusing models.

>>543019253
they've been doing that since like harvest
>>543019384
even heist was just a "here's a bunch of random lore snippets to explain or set up shit that's in poop2"

>>543018601

>>543018665
Oh so then that makes me wonder why the Monk acts so righteous in all his voice lines, I guess he might just be a zealot

>League start is on Halloween
Well shit what do I tell my friends so I can get out of trick or treating?

the new mobs will be overtuned and barely drop loot
until week 1 patch

>>543020070
Nigger, we already had Expedition characters on the first teaser of PoE 2 and assets, you are just a blind nigger that only see things that your favorite 2rists says.

Try SRS for a change of pace

make sure to divine up your whispers before it goes legacy

>>543019576
The kingsmarch mining effects destroyed my performance. I even lost an underground encounter cause it wouldn't load through my immunity timer. Other times when it loaded the boss effects wouldn't render, so I just dodged shit by guessing

>>543018840
Yeah the loot was bad enough that none of the other criticisms mattered that much. Hard mobs with laughable rewards. I quit that league fast

The fact that they are bringing two games to life at the same time, with the first explaining the stories of the second live, is a feat of worldbuilding that isn't talked about enough. I don't know who Mr. or Ms. Lore is at ggg, but hats off to them.

Think about who's his audience. Homosexuals? No chance, he's just a disgusting looking man with a monstrous visage.

Well I guess it would be kind of cool if another mermaid came up and started invading wraeclast and you have to be like, "noooo I'm just a duelist, not him". But then some mysterious figure appears and starts talking about the tapestry or some shit, so you gotta go adjust your dump tabs

Poop of Excrement II

There's no way that there's an actual retard in this general who actually doesn't know that GGG has been flipping PoE 2 assets into PoE 1 for years now and have even publicly stated such. That's a level of retardation that I didn't know was possible. Similar to retards thinking ds_lily is an actual girl when it's obvious it's a man. I know people are slow in the head but holy shit it's still somewhat shocking to be reminded of that every now and then.

Looking at it this way is nice, but it also opens up the possibility that they will retconn a bunch of stuff and enshittify it in general, they havent even concluded or progressed the maven/eldritch narrative yet

>>543029312
That means heist got nerfed
fuck

TalkativeFag irritates me. He sounds like he's trying to be a mainstream news station like Fox News or CNN but for a fucking video game. It bewilders me how anyone can listen to him. Also the way he interacts with other men is fucking awful, he will compliment them by saying "ohh that's LOVELY" followed by a fake laugh "hahaAHAHA ohh stop it huny". Sounds like some retarded bitch on one of those real housewives reality tv shows where they sit around with a glass of dry red wine mindlessly talking about whatever comes through their skills but somehow it's for Path of Excrement instead.

Still going to be the same 5 heistoids running 100k wings per league. The content is so shit nobody wants to run it. I hope part of their "rework" is to make it so that you actually have to kill stuff.

QoL always comes with nerfs
It is GGG's form of equivalent exchange

All it would take for me to run heist again is to make the rogue harbor like your hideout again. I cant stand seeing other players run around with their glowshit. It doesnt even make sense thematically

>>543029312
what is the purpose of this change

>>543030913
the thing with heist is basically every endgame build wants experimented bases so if they become rarer in any way the price will just go up and the profits from heisting don't really change

ROGUE LEVELS GEAR DELETED
HAVE FUN HEISTING RETARDS

>>543031052
They saw the Settlers change to having been received well and no one plays Heist.

>>543031052

>>543031750
They should remake heist but make it even more confusing than betrayal. You have to manage interpersonal relationships between your companions and future targets, by taking advantage of the ebb and flow of the persuasion tides and the shifting currents of a pseudo-random speculative vibe economy of the houses. For the gameplay you are mostly running heist though. No doors, just to satisfy the plebs

>>543032738
t. Heistslopper trying to get rid of competition so he can sell Simplexes for 1 mirror.

>>543032289
>steamer
Just dropped a big steamer myself

i was hyped for half a decade for poe2 after exilecon
and they released into closed beta with the game not even half finished
how does that happen...like really though?

>>543033097
They bit off more than what they could even fit in their mouths and are now scrambling to scale back expectations.

>>543033243
scaling back expectations for what each new content patch brings maybe
but they arent scaling back the actual game
the content gets here when it gets here basically

>>543033408
>but they arent scaling back the actual game
>weapon locked skills are here to stay
>if not all classes are there on release, then whatever
>TWO GAMES
It's being scaled back anon.

Yep this league is going to be amazing.

If simplexes are more common, the price goes down but you can sell more. If simplexes are less common, you sell less but the price per sale goes up. The only way to make heist less profitable without removing simplexes outright is to have more people running heist, so the price goes down due to increased supply but you personally aren't selling more. So adding qol to heist actually is inherently a nerf.

>>543033489
>if not all classes are there on release, then whatever
and you think that means those classes and ascendancies cease to exist?

Yep gonna be doing heists until 3.28 drops

>>543033862
>think
bold assumption

wake me up when they add heist to poe2

>>543033760
the demand for simplex will always outweigh the supply
the price will barely change

>>543033862
The cease to exist on release, which is what counts. Imagine telling people when PoE2 was announced that 3 of the classes aren't going to be there on release.

>>543034189
if that was actually the case there would never even be any up for sale for more than a few seconds

this has been fact checked and verified
X TRUE
by real poe economists

as long as a farming strategy has some kind of valuable unique drops associated with it, its profitability is mostly dictated by how difficult it is to run and how little most people enjoy it

I wonder if Johnathan will fill the tub right up to the line or if he has a keystone passive that makes it overflow

>>543034316
true
why are there always cars on the lot at dealerships

>>543033097
Probably cause they weren't sure if they were doing poe 2 or poe 2. They decided that they wanted a fresh new poe 2, but it was a bigger project than expected cause poe 1 is good And making combat more meaningful in a game where you kill millions of mobs isn't easy to do

>>543034236
you conflate taking the game out of early access and the game being 'finished'. the game will never be finished, just like poe1.
jonathan said they plan on taking the game out of early access for 0.5 or 0.6, which makes sense.

>the game will never be finished, just like poe1.
Holy cope

>>543028480
who the FUCK is lolcohol he doesnt deserve to be with these titans of the community

>>543033097
Because Johnathan is an incompetent game developer who mismanaged resources and doesn't understand that reality doesn't work the way it does in his head. Hell even the game itself doesn't work in reality the way it does in his head. He will likely get sacked by Tencent sometime within the first half of 2026.

The prophecy of the tub will be...fulFILLED.

>>543030338
>>543029814
The gear was always the bottleneck for me, alteration tax in a game where every gear slot became an alteration tax.

Why the fuck is poe2 progressing so slowly though? They have a team of artists and designers and shit working full-time. Just make the damn swords and the fucking rolling bear guy already

>>543035116
kek when was poe1 finished?
it was in beta for a year. added a new class with 1.0. 2 years later they added act 4. year after that they added ascendancies. 2 years after that they added the rest of the campaign... etc, etc, etc.

>>543034983
nta but this is just a dumb comparison
poe1 has a complete base game that get shit added to it via leagues
poe2 is so incomplete that it has base shit missing (weapon types, skills, dogshit endgame that needs to get tweaked every league)

>>543035778
When you can run from Act 1 to Act 10 with all the classes that it has. Anything else after is unironically DLC.

>>543035009
you don't need those chaos to get through early acts though?
or are your builds so shit that you cannot even survive white maps without trading?

I wonder how all of the casual scum still mazed by Poop 2 are enjoying the game with all of its bloat so far? I only mention it because that was one of the attractions of poop 2 is that it wasn't as bloated as Poopy 1 but look at all of the bloat which has been SHOVELED (emphasis on shovel) into Pooper 2. You've got breach, expedition, essences, strongboxes, Wisps, Abyss, ritual, rogue Exiles, delirium, and more. All of it shoveled into Poopchute 2 early access directly from Johnathans bloated asshole.

Someone's in trouble if the tub gets filled.

>>543035969
if thats the case, it took ggg 4 years to finish poe1.

>>543036085
every single person who bitches about poe1 being "bloated" is extremely retarded so trying to understand their thought processes is futile

>>543034968
indeed they are
and yet they arent instantly always sold out
so then why did you use that argument for simplexes?

>>543035667
Sorry chud we're running a racket here where we work on overpriced macroscamactions (mtx) more than the actual game. Don't you want to buy our $20-$50 skins for your character? What's that you want swords and axes? Sorry but the tub needs to be filled first!

>>543036353
you argument >>543034189 is that the price of simplexes doesn't change based on supply. If you aren't saying the same thing about cars I don't know what the analogy is even supposed to mean

>>543036069
I like to heist early to buy the gear a i need plus getting map reveal count to do grand heists in the future. after the grind it takes me less than 20 minutes/act

>>543036475
or you could just spend the hour doing the rest of the acts and get to maps even faster than wasting your time in heist?

>>543029312
leveling them was literally nothing
getting +2 jobs and t1 dupe on all your rogues to make full revealed 4x worth it was the tedious part
t. heist enjoyer

>>543036574
you don't get enough currency fast enough in maps compared to heist unless you get to reds but i cant without buyiing gear

>>543036467
got it
youre a retard
i should have known better

ggg was like 120+ fulltime employees leading up to 3.0, they were generating tens of millions of dollars a year and the scope of the game was much smaller.

You are creating your own problem

actually its 335 hours to go

A fucking year without swords and axes. Just release them already you fucking faggots. Fuck that sends me into a red hot rage. These fucking clowns are nowhere near adding all of the rest of the content. This pile of shit won't be ready until 2028 at which point we'll all be dead from Nuclear War.

>>543038832
I know but i rather play the build i like

>>543039018
poe has had swords and axes for like a decade bro

>>543038428
So they can roll it back next league to torture the retards that get hooked

>>543038428
overlapping jobs at different max levels.
one has max lvl 3 traps, the other has max lvl 5. heist is gay so i don't know if that is something people minmax, for everything but deception contracts i always just ran whoever was max lvl.

Hey Johnathan when are you going to finish filling up the tub? It has been almost a year and the tub still isn't filled. Fill it fatty.

>>543039018
>We'll all be dead
But we'll remember the time when we almost played path of exile 2

Does anyone else think the betrayal rework was shit and destroyed the mechanic?

>>543040264
yup. GGG is great at making things worse with a bigger budget

trying to make a reap build, is blood mage really the best for it? i feel like im not making enough use of curses in this build

>>543040264
unless you think you need an endless supply of veiled exalts the rework is great.

Should I buy PoE2?

>>543040869
No

liberator of wraeclast support pack: bought
reliquary submission with a plea for poe1 eos: submitted

>>543040264
no?

>>543040869
Hire a male or female escort in your area for the same price as PoE 2 and it will be a better experience than Poopchute 2 will ever be

>>543040869
I would drop it (the cash on the game)

>>543040264
No, it made (some) safehouse rewards worthwhile again, and there's regular profit from the allflames and tradable medallion.

Sure you could farm veiled exalts faster before but now the profit's a lot more consistent, and there's a lot of nice stuff from the safehouse rewards for SSF.

>>543040264
no, it was good actually
ideally there should be some way to target farm catarina a bit better or they should just up the drop rate of veiled ex but aside from that all the changes were good

>>543040264

Bro PLEASE buy my HIllock craft PLEASE

haven't played in weeks and checking in. is there still no point to play anything else besides lightning ranger?

>>543035667
>Why the fuck is poe2 progressing so slowly though
My money is on GGG scrambling to rework animations/skills/planned playstyles on the other melee weapon types, which I can see taking a long time.
Jonathan saying "Druid and Amazon will be ready in January/February" in an interview last December was before they panic-pulled him off the 0.2 release because of how bad the reception was to Maces/Warrior.
No one would have played Druid from the previews if it came out with pre-nerf Lightning Spear Amazon.

>>543042378
lightning amazon works too

>>543042389
>Every time you transform into a bear it has to include a half second roar
Very cool! Definitely won't be an issue at all.

>>543042378
retard

>>543035667
ggg is an indie company with what? 10-15 workers in it. It's literally humanly impossible for them to deliver a full perfect AAA game in 6 months

>>543042389
The boss shown here is probably 10x tankier than what was released in act 4. He also didn't hit hard.
It seems obvious that the delay is due to them not being sure what kind of game they want to make.

>>543043028
>10x tankier
Or the druid is just dealing shit damage. It's doing like 0.20 attacks per second.

>>543042389
*Druid and Huntress I mean

>>543042389
reworking animations is one of the biggest delays, jonathan mentioned it during one of the 0.3 interviews.
wasd was added late in development so they had to add extra animations to everything, then they added sprint, more animations.
not that unheard of in game dev.
the biggest concern that largely went under the radar was an interview with octavian last year during one of the conventions.
he said they didn't even know what some of the ascendancies were going to be but they would figure it out.

>Jonathan & Mark did more for PoE1&2 in 9 months than Chris in 9 years

You know it's true.

>>543043949
>Jonathan & Mark did more damage to PoE1&2 in 9 months than Chris in 9 years

>>543043949
>half a year of settlers

>>543043949
Anon, we got outright confirmation that no one worked on PoE1 for nearly a year.

>>543044104
still more than BFR sitting on his fucking laurels making stupid shit like harvest and kalandra

BFR was the rancid log of shit blocking every good feature from being added to the game for the past several years.

Should Idols be made core?

>>543044104
settlers should have ended in november, 3.26 launched in june. 3.26 was an expansion league so that work would have started several leagues ago, and mercs were planned content for both games. so as bad as you want it to be it really isn't that bad.

>BFR is out
>Mark gets promoted and gets a front row seat to the horrors of modern PoE trading
>Says he's fucking had it with trading with third worlders on stream
>Not too long after async trading pops into existence
If you have a single working brain cell you can see what happened here

Bring back scourged maps and scourge cooking you cowards

>>543045350
>BFR is out
So after Kalandra? That means people would've had years to notice the ABSOLUTE state of things and did nothing. Face it, the one good thing PoE2 did was bringing enough casuals and gamer dads to the fray to demand this basic feature be made.

>>543044868
Idols were really fun. Probably a bit too tedious with the constant price checking though

>>543044868
God no

>>543044868
it will be
in poe2

>>543045534
BFR was in charge and looked at the state of trading and said "yep that's friction" and then pooped out Ruthless. It wasn't until he was totally out that actual improvements could be made without some retarded adherence to Diablo 2's ancient boomer traditions blocking absolutely fucking everything good.

>>543043750
>he said they didn't even know what some of the ascendancies were going to be but they would figure it out.
I'm not too worried after the Phrecia's reception desu. They could go full meme with the new ascendancies at the start if they really wanted to with how quick they got that patch together.
Chris certainly would have had a better vision and road map of the game but he'd be too stubborn to let the Phrecia event happen if he was still at the helm.
What would be interesting to look forward to is how bloated layered new mechanics and crafting would end up being before they do another Expedition-tier giganerf.

>>543045812
Friction is good in game design
PoE as a franchise is on the slippery slope to D4

It's still funny how they insist on calling it async trade and not what people were asking for because it'd look like they were bending the knee (they did)

The day that Tailwind gets raped and gaped is the day that the BFR vision has been finally slain.

>>543044868
not for poe1 but i could see them working in poe2.
keep a sparse tree for basic utility, add the idol system for juicing. they would basically just be permanent tablets.

>>543045953
There has not been a single good argument against async trade. Fuck the friction meme.

>>543046180
It's soulless slop for crybaby redditors

They should be drop only and account bound like the sanctum relics were

Yo guys what build do I run if I was a big fan of Fubgun's Lightning Arrow Deadeye in POE2. I just want to oblierate everything while moving as fast as I can and I want to get overwhelmed with loot even if my loot filter is set to Uber Plus Strict.

>>543047449
Sorry forgot to mention POE1. What do I do in POE1 if I just want to oblierate everything with 20000% movement speed and I was a big fan of Fubgun's Lightning Arrow build in POE2 with the rhoa mount and the off screening and the "you don't even see the monsters" because they get off screened. What build in POE1 do I roll to practice before Keepers League. Thanks

Megabonk bros, when's the new league?

>>543046180
The argument against it is that the game is too easy. I think it solves itself with endgame farming requiring investment. But alch and go t16 is like the base level of endgame and now progression means how ass can you make your t17s.
Of course there's a bit of hyperbole here, but lots of t16 ready gear is dirt cheap.
A blizzard approach would be to add t17-19 maps which are identical to t16, but have difficulty multipliers like wisp juice.
Honestly I'd take that over t17s, even if it does sound sloppy

>>543047449
Movement is pretty fast already in poe1 but if thats your focus, then something like righteous fire, Cyclone, Herald of Thunder, Blade vortex or just look for any build called an autobomber and go from there

>>543047623
If you want to offscreen then str stack kinetic bolt or maybe cast speed stack spark

>>543048081
megabuckbroken...

>>543048365

What one do I do if I like just simple and agile not like earthquake and wait many seconds for the damage. -_-

are there any poe streamers who aren't fucking fags? ghazzy is a muzzy methhead. prolly satanist as well. darth is soulless. tri talks like a fag and his shit's all retarded. gog seems a bit of a mong.
other dudes i don't even know their names but any time i check out someone else it's retarded takes.

that fat fag in the onesie pjs seemed reasonable in the one vid i watched but i can't get past the outfit. i bet he's got a binky up his ass.

are they all just pandering to their dumbfuck audiences? can never come off as too intelligent and have to constantly toe the line of making their idiocy seem heckin valid?

Cutedog if you love anime trans girls.
Mathil if you like electronic music

>>543048090
i think what ggg realized with poe2 is that most players are liars.
for years 'we want better ground loot, we want better crafting, we want accessible mid-tier and levelling crafting'
but really most people just want to farm currency and then open up a shop to buy whatever trash they think is good.

>>543048708
the ones on my first reply except blade vortex are all just a toggle and walk simulator (cyclone is hold)
and the second reply are projectiles so its up to you to scale your speed
If you want one that has speed as its focus then go Cyclone cast while channeling, most guides show you how to improve your speed one way or another

>>543048712
you sound like a future ds_lily viewer

>>543048712
mathil is you want someone that doesnt talk like a retard, quin69 if you want to laugh at a retard

>>543049072
The memory strand loot did those things though, and was well received.

>>543049086
none of these ever get mentioned on the patch notes so the damage should be alright, if you want giga damage, then either find an ultra niche build or become a metaslave like the rest of this general

>>543049072
abyss was the definition of accessible mid tier and levelling crafting and it was universally liked
memory strands tried to do the same thing but kinda didnt work mostly because exalts in poe1 are valuable as fuck

If PoE was real all of you retards would die in the Mud Flats

>>543050136
it's the same story.
>why would i spend x currency trying to craft an item when i can just buy it on trade?

IS HEIST KILL

Dead league

>>543051109
yes they probably nerfed all the drops specially for grand heists

>>543050457
Most people would be exhausted by the time they reached giga nigga #1 hillock.

This is factually true and should be put into the next general info box. Baldo almost tanked the entire game and franchise over petty issues and retardation.

>weighted, you press more buttons to do the same or worse damage that ed+contagion can do. Also, it gives bonus elemental armor based on item energy shield

my assumption was viper got ported out of the fight by doryani and she will show up in act 5 as a friendly.

Atziri may be the last eceleb character we haven't encountered in Wraeclast yet. She won't be there unless PoE2 loses 90% of its player base. She's like the “break glass in case of emergency” button.

>>543058595
she got yoinked into the legion monolith and will show up as an enemy whenever they port legion to poe2

>>543058595
I thought she got sent to be part of legion in poe1

its a phys spell build that scales gain phys as extra and increased elemental damage out the wazoo
t1 crusader chest explode (or i guess 2x synth weapon implicits if you play trade) and oriaths end is enough for explosions to clear the entire screen

>>543064694
TR/CA is still good on pathfinder. not sure what you mean

>>543064807
Occultist does more damage and Trickster has way better defenses. All CA/TR gets is some wither for damage on a build that has a damage cap already, niGGGer

14 more sleeps... im not gonna make it...

>>543065035
>Occultist does more damage and Trickster has way better defenses
PF is the better middle ground. damage from wither, defenses from permaflasks. it's worse once you get mageblood i guess, but then you should not be playing TR/CA anymore

wooooooow we're adding the poe2 breach content to poe1 woooooooooow please keep funding us


can't wait to see them just port all the poe2 maps and assets and items over to poe1 as well and basically completely turn face and run back to poe1

>>543065189
A good poison PF build shits all over it immediately. You can already clear very good with CA Arrow Nova that also gets poison prolif while benefiting from Ballistas' single target or just play PConc or Mamba. I don't see why you would ever even bother with it unless you just really like Chaos DoT. At least with Trickster, you can get tanky.

>>543053934
But this is the fucking game I wanted. I never wanted PoE2 to be zoomshit.

How the fuck is a flail supposed to work swinging 10 times per second? It doesn't. Hence why I think Flails will probably be cut from the game.

>>543065339
breach in poe2 is pretty much identical to breach in poe1 and breach in poe1 sucks so hopefully they're doing something more than that

>>543065490
Your Stormlash, sis?

>>543065495
>Port Breach to PoE2
>Port Breach from PoE2 to PoE1
>..
>They port Breach from PoE2 that was ported to PoE1 back to PoE2

It's now the year 2027 and we still don't have Duelist in the game because GGG is currently chasing it's tail on Blight PoE2 being put back in PoE1 to then be put back in PoE2

>>543064694
chaos dot just fucking sucks
but its true, pathfinder has too many dead nodes if you dont use the poison prolif node which for some reason also gives 20% more damage

>>543065490
ggg are physically incapable of making a slow game.

>>543065490

>Change PoE2 to be more like PoE1 before anyone got to play it that wasn't a PoE supporter pack buyer mazed PoE1cuck
>New audience they tried to court completely deleted, the problem GGG was trying to solve as a company was literally unsolved by the product that was supposed to solve it because they chickened out last minute and decided they didn't want any of the 20mill Elden Ring purchasers to buy their game

>The zoomshit blowupscreen gameplay literally is nonsensical and nongame design and PoE2 is literally the worst running game on PS5 and doesn't look anything special visually because GGG can't not spawn 200 mobs on screen in a game engine and game that was never clearly supposed to do this

>Spend all that time and resources focusing on console and gamepad and ui stuff and couch coop, do interview with Yoshida of Sony to just completely obliterate your game on that platform from being even remotely playable

PoE2 has failed to grow the playerbase substantially and cost way too much to make and I imagine Tencent mustn't be very happy seeing the playercount.
If I had to guess if 1.0 doesn't bring in 1 mill concurrent on steam GGG are gunna be gutted and have to fire loads of staff.

>>543066347
Never ever. The game sucks ass and everyone who cared to try it has moved on. The hype is dead.

Except GGG did bait all the elden ring players into buying poe2, do you not remember the massive amount of people comparing it to that exact game for months after release? Then all the dad gamers with 17 kids finally reached the endgame and slowly started realizing that they had gotten tricked. Now they're just kind of sitting around seething while ggg warps the game back into appealing to their existing fanbase. It was looking rough for a minute there but poe1 players are winning.

>>543066347
>PoE2 has failed to grow the playerbase substantially
poe2 0.3 had over 350k on launch
poe1s most popular league was 230k
poe2 is still in paid early access.

That wasn't a massive amount of people. Most of them left before the game even unlocked because of server login shit. 3 million so they say 'turned up' but only a fraction actually even booted into the game, alot of refunds happened.

That was at the very best only the rabid PC gamer faction of Fromsoft fandom that even know how to get to GGG's website to even buy a supporter back.

Literally no one who was actually the target audience of PoE2 as it was being made got to play it.

GGG should never have done early access and also never have fucking constantly promised a release date to then push it back. They should have announced a release date a year out from the actual release when the game is actually looking finished like a normal developer.

They would have legitimately had 10 million people turn up to play 1.0 PoE2 with all the hype that was building up and now I think they're going to be lucky to get 400k people show up for 1.0.

two games one eos

>>543067121
oh boo hoo two games at once oh my lord.

Talk to any other fucking studio on the planet most have at least 3 projects constantly burning that also aren't just the same exact game.

I accept your concession.

>>543067589
that free weekend peaked at over 350,000 concurrent players.
poe1s all-time peak was 229,000.

>>543067838
accept dn too

>>543067807
What was the most popular league again? You guys have to pretend PoE was dying to fit your retarded narrative. The only thing that has killed PoE is Jonathan's malicious and borderline incompetent management of it.
>>543067919
niGGGer, zoomer humor. You have to go back

>>543067678
PoE literally always resolves to numbers lower than random shit like truck simulator, it's arbitrarily bumped up every 3 months by the same mazed retards who need to collect the new png's
it's not real success and GGG should've been on a trajectory to become major world player level big but they're going to stay as AA dev for the forseeable future because of this squandering

Legitimately having 2 fucking conferences, trailers at every game awards show there was trailer after trailer after announcement after an announcement of the announcement for the delay of the delay to the delay to releasing an early access completely fucked up not at all like poe2 was supposed to be with no characters no items no weapons no swords and massive login issues on EA release.

They completely butchered the landing and they should just cancel PoE2 and fold whatever they were doing with it into PoE1 including the new character models etc and just call it a day.

>>543067902
Free weekend with no access restrictions for a "hot product" resulting in 350k is fucking miserable you retard. Even giving it away for free it barely got any substantial players past the PoE1 peak (peak for a game that most people don't give a shit about and is a literally who game).
PoE2 if handled properly shouldv'e put GGG on the map and it instead dropped them back off at the shack they were at. PoE2 been in development for fucking 7 years at this point to get merely 100ish k more players than their other undesirable game.

>>543048712
Poe 1 is a 12+ year old game anon. Anyone "normal" who streamed the game quit a long time ago or just play it part-time like shiggyD.
There's a lot of normie-sounding fags covering Poe 2 now but half of them will have quit when the game turns into a complete autism fiesta post-1.0.

>>543068054
This is legitimatley what I think will happen long term the 'two games one launcher' thing will become reality and then one day eventually there won't be the option anymore for poe1/poe2 it'll just be PoE and it's essentially a big messy combination of poe1 and 2, probably 2 campaigns with all the same character models and content

>>543068054
Agreed, Poopy Deuce was down to 3-4k players during 0.2 yet these retards will post the same thing about PoE without an oz. of awareness. I would not be surprised to find out that Merc league made more money than 0.2 did. Notice the GGjeets no longer post graphs about GGG's revenue. They spammed the same graph for months on end during 0.1.

The whole reason they were making PoE2 is because they needed new audience/new players that aren't all about to die of thrombosis and diabetes in their 40's.
They instead have doubled down on these people and their playercounts are going to just dwindle and dwindle downwards from here on out. The "PoE2 bump" was literally as it stands now 100k players. That's it. Probably 100k of previous PoE1 players who simply returned if anything and will leave again soon.

GGG was swaggering about like they were going to drop a 12million unit selling game, I can guarantee you Tencent is not happy about the PoE2 situation currently and you're going to start seeing GGG have to fire lots of staff if it doesn't turn around. They massively boosted their employee totals and did a heap of hiring in recent years to basically have a team 3x bigger than GGG used to be, working on 2 games with the same one low playercount.

They are essentially now making a more expensive to make PoE1.
That won't last long.

>>543068445
i don't think there are any official graphs for sales figures, 0.3 was one of the best selling games on steam though. i don't think mercenaries of sharthus was a global best seller.

>>543068802
I don't think this means anything considering PoE is F2P with 35% of its base on standalone. 180k plus players is definitely going to be up there especially during summer, too. I saw a fuckload of people with the new floating shaper mtx. Most of the hideouts I go into for trade in PoE are some whale's dwelling that's fully-decked out. I think I only saw one person with the new $90 supporter pack hideout in 2. Anyways, these arguments are just boring and played out.

>>543068956
based on the available figures no they dont
NZ financials are freely available because of government audits the last one they weren't very hot

My point is PoE2 should've been a knockout but they completely fucked it. Early Access killed all potential PoE2 had. They should've never released it and never announced it until it was actually ready. Doing 2 conferences for a game that then got further delayed 3 times was completely retarded.

1.0 PoE2 will be mega old news by then and barely scratch 400k when it should've had 10 million on PS5 alone if they did it right.

>>543068994

don't lie to me you swine

>>543069598
They didn't need to listen to any anon, they could've listened to their own founder.

which one

>>543069309
poe2 has almost the same steam/standalone ratio as poe1, by your logic poe2 is doing amazingly well.

i skipped most of that retard babble about player count above me.
But you didn't skip this one.

>>543069743
i mean if they make the game not shit they can piggy back the good will of the fanbase like silkson did. Theres was not that much aoverlap between pooe 1 and 2 players

>>543069598
I'm being incredibly low ball here.
For PoE2 1.0 to have any less than 10 million players (half of Elden Ring's launch total) across all platforms turning up would mean it's a monstrous failure, also given all the bullshit conferences and trailers and hype.

Reminder, Fromsoft never had a "Eldencon" to hype their game. They never had interviews with Miyazaki looking at the camera pleading with you to buy.
They never had trailer after trailer focusing on this one character.

They had teaser, announcement with release, and one single delay of a few months and they released to 20 million people buying it.

Again, PoE2 not even doing modestly 10 million across all platforms for 1.0 will be a failure of massive proportion.

>>543069923
souls became a meme THE SUPER HARDCORE GAME for real gamers when the industry was trying to get casuals it also got some of the biggest viral marketing campaing in history everyone literally everywhere were regurgitating the same shit phrases

true, them not hitting even a low, low 60 million on 0.1 will be a failure of massive proportions
but thankfully, we will never even see 1.0 release, as in circa 2 weeks it will be revealed that GGG is insolvent

>>543069825
The one who knew releasing a game in this state would qualify it as "a shell of an arpg" to actual fans of the game who experienced PoE already and just needlessly divide the player base.

what happens

>>543070072
the fuck are you babbling about fromsoft barely do any marketing at all for their games. There was no viral marketing.
It had organic groundswell because fromsoft had built up a track record of quality by that point and the game was teased and not seen again for years before fully unveiling.
It had 20 million people turn up because 20 million people wanted to play the game, sure many in that would've been along for the hype train and not realise it's not the game for them, but still, that's besides the point.

Elden Ring had way, way less fucking marketing than PoE2 has had, was in development for less time, had less of a groundswell (not an established known namesake IP). Again, PoE2 should have done gangbusters, and it won't.

were you here for the DS trheads back then? literally marketers 24/7 repeating the same trying to shut down any critisism, they even denied artificial difficulty which is a very common souls problem was a real thing. All the youtubers and influencers were also on the super hardcore game train too

From software was completely unkown at that point and demon souls was mediocre to the point sony thought it was shit and didnt back it , the marketing was the reason for the series success. DS2 and 3 are considered shit thats 2 games in a row yet the series didnt die because of how big of a meme it was. It came out when everyone was catering to casuals and set a trend

elden ring was highly anticipated by everyone

It's just common sense that PoE 2 would have less standalone players. Standalone launchers are a thing of the past
>>543070593
So PoE 2 hit 590k concurrent during 0.1. Jonathan states that standalone had 80-90k concurrent. Can you do the math for me and tell me if that's way less than 30-35%? Thanks in advance. Also, I'm shocked by how low the console numbers are. I assumed they were five times that amount.

>>543070791
>artificial difficulty which is a very common souls problem was a real thing.

Post completely fucking discarded. Fromsoft games are the opposite of artificial difficulty their enemies are not HP sponges, the final bosses in their games barley have like 10k HP. PoE is the game with literal artificial difficutly where the Act 4 random zombies have more HP and damage than the big boss knight dude of Act1. The entire game is founded on linearly scaling artificial difficulty.

Games with artificial difficulty are the ones with difficulty sliders where Very Hard is just all the mobs have more HP.. That is by definition artificial difficulty.

If you got killed by the low health zombies at the start of Dark Souls, it's not because they're artificially difficult. It's because you're retarded and the enemy is smarter than you would like.

>>543070791
There was no marketing, stop using this term when it doesn't mean what you think it means. Marketing means official paid advertisers and advertising. No one was paid to fucking post about Dark Souls on 4chan in 2012 you complete retard.
Now, Ziggy D, Mathil etc? These are actual marketers paid by GGG.

holy fuck he's actually coping

>>543071229
Oh, sorry, I could barely understand what Jonathan was saying since he speaks so fast while mumbling and stuttering constantly. Still I find it hard to believe that there was 300k concurrent on standalone which would put it over 50% of the playerbase. Why would more players be on standalone when the game is easily-accessible on Steam and it has a new playerbase? I guess oldfags probably checked out the game and dropped it within a few days. I really miss Chris speaking. Did he mutter and mumble that 0.1 only had 15 to 20k on console or did he mean 150 to 200k? I'm confused after listening to Jonathan speak at hyperspeed.

hes not gonna read your posts, lil bro

>>543072552
But you did

>>543072362
oh wait, I'm retarded. 300k out of 900k would put it at 33%.

>>543088262
I haven't watched any of his videos, not even one. I don't know why my phone recommends this trash and I don't care. Never address me again like that you subhuman trash. When speaking to your superiors you will begin your sentence with Sir.

>>543088227
He wants me to react by calling him a faggot on 4chan? Really? So if I go to his YouTube channel, and specifically that video and tell him your thumbnail looks like the reaction a gay guy would have pulling down another man's pants in some gay porn and that you're a faggot...he's going to keep the comment up? He won't delete it? I bet he would, I bet he would

>>543089208
Oh sweet summer child.

>>543089486
Go ahead and explain it to me. You can't because your entire "personality" boils down to pathetic one liners. Go ahead and explain the situation, show me what I'm too innocent to see.

>>543089339
He's going to need to find something else to do. Good thing gay porn is an option for him. Based on that last thumbnail he should have no problem getting his asshole blown out for a few $1000 a couple times a month.

you know what would be cool QoL for 3.27? No more class-specific skill gem bullshit in early acts, muling fucking sucks.

This will be my fastest 40/40 yet, need to finish it up ASAP. Last league I bought a megablood on day 6 and that was with getting delayed 2 hours due to servers. This time will be faster, then they'll combine challenges between poo1 and 2 leagues going forward and I can treat this one way more casually.

>>543038428
I'd assume some characters still have different levels depending on what their skillset is or whatever the fuck it is called. Also I assume they you can still craft +level to jobs on heist gear.

>So if I go to his YouTube channel, and specifically that video and tell him your thumbnail looks like the reaction a gay guy would have pulling down another man's pants in some gay porn and that you're a faggot
You already answered your own question and you still can't figure it out?

40/40 is meaningless, day 6 mageblood is slow also if your demi isnt rank 1 class in HC it means nothing to me

>>543090105
>then they'll combine challenges between poo1 and 2 leagues going forward
No they won't.

>>543090105
That's nice, anon. I'll be actually enjoying the game for a few weeks instead of rushing through it like that means something.

>>543090150
Again, explain it to me, don't ask me questions. You're telling me the algorithm "told" him to make a thumbnail that looks like a guy on a gay casting couch reacting to the camera man pulling out his cock?

>>543090179
This is my 6th league and will be my 4th 40/40 so I'm still new, I just like checking boxes.

>>543090192
Well I mean the rewards will be shared, I guess they could still do game specific atlas pass and supporter packs tho

>>543090368
>being surprised that Tri fag attracts other fags

>>543090467
>the rewards will be shared
First I'm hearing of this, where did GGG say this?

>>543087657
Theres something about his eyes that makes me think he's secretly a serial killer and does some other deranged shit. His 'flamboyant' tendencies is actually a cover for his psychopathy.

>>543090481
So you're telling me his channel is a path of exile news channel specifically for gay men?

>>543090668
I wouldn't be surprised if he's a transvestite like many other serial killers.

>>543090548
Sorry, that's just wishful thinking on my part and nothing even hinted at

You did not begin your sentence with Sir. With all your buzzwords it's a certainty that you are the zoomer. Probably gender bender as well offended that I insulted your Internet boyfriend.

Kill yourself immediately. Now.

>>543091158
Hey triggered little fag, explain it or commit suicide.

Bros why is poe2 so bad? I have to fucking press 2 buttons? I lack the critical thinking to understand other people, i believe that online interactions are real. When are they going to remove 1 button? I need to press 1 and only 1. The bosses are such a fucking SLOG bros

>>543091158

>>543082868
Did he try to hug or kiss her? Holy shit, the thirst levels exceeded maximum capacity.

>>543091374

Fuck understanding other people, especially little fags like you. A rope, a knife to the wrists, jumping off a tall building. There are many options. Do it. Now.

Retarded Newfags.
