I'm not going to lie. Affliction was the first league I actually went hard on this game and ended with around 6+ complete builds. I only played leagues before this for a little bit here and there and couldn't get into it. I'm still very much so a baby in PoE but it's been so much fun. I've never and I mean NEVER seen a development team soooo committed to their game and community and that alone makes me want to play. This team has captured my hearts and the community is one of the most welcoming, excusing some trolls and scammers, that I have ever experienced. Much love to you Zizaran, GGG, and you guys in the comments and community. Wish you guys the best of luck in this next league with all your drops!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Seriously. MTX generally just get shit on, and for good reason. but POE and GGG is one of the few examples of it actually being a great model. I'm happy to support devs like this who even after 10 years continued to challenge themselves improving and iterating on the game. I'd rather just buy a supporter pack than most AAA games ill play for 10 hours and get bored of. It's a better use of my money. Ironic that GGG is owned by Tencent and yet seems to have near total autonomy to run their business and game any way they want and this is what we get. Maybe the American and European mega publishers should take notice.

@TheTripleJski 3 ай бұрын

There's BIG obstacles to this. For one thing, many devs have lots to hide and really don't have the answers to the hard questions that GGG will stand and answer. That's often because the devs are on strings being pulled by greedy corporate execs. That's also often because they're not necessarily as talented or passionate (or both) as GGG has in their building. The OTHER big thing is...EVEN with the open, cordial, and transparent discourse GGG brings, they're human and make mistakes. When they do, people overreact, especially with the anonymity of the internet. Looking back at the reaction to the Archnemesis fiasco, people were understandably frustrated and annoyed with the way the game was at the time. HOWEVER, they took things WAY too far on social media (reddit in particular from what I understand). Unwarranted anger and threats (this is just wrong) toward GGG, Chris Wilson, and Bex (the community manager who was really fantastic at her job imo) just caused them to get off of social media for an extended period of time. Recently, we saw Helldivers 2 devs going back at players that were being antagonistic. These people are only human, and so it makes sense why some studios, EVEN those with the best intentions, do not subject their employees to the nonsensical overreactions of social media. There's no excuse for that kind of toxicity and threats of physical harm over a video game they're trying to make fun for us all. Hopefully we don't see history repeat itself with Jonathan and Mark being so gracious as to put themselves out there for the sake of their project and its fans with POE2.

As much as I like Mark, it's kinda strange hearing him say that they don't want to pushe the melee problem down the line again and again, when they have been pushing it down the line for several years now. Hint: Start with actually balancing melee on par with other archetypes in term of investment and power, and people would react positively. I agree; you can't have "tru melee" in a game this fast and dense, but you can balance it to be on par with other archetypes. We've had it before.

@TrayShade 3 ай бұрын

On the door thing, i understand his argument on the game feeling grounded and not having immersion breaking and internally inconsistent things in the game. For the annoying jail doors that you have to open a trillion times a map though. Why can we use our cataclysmic nuking skills to disintegrate monsters from existence that were on the other side of the door even, but the door is just chilling there. That to me is immersion breaking and inconsistent. Obviously if theres the occational big important door that i have to open myself thats not an issue.

@DKannji 3 ай бұрын

I think a good compromise would be in form of, if your character is next to a door, can't it be inferred that the character is opening the door on their own? Our characters can figure out how to breathe on their own, can't we assume that they know how to do other basic things? The thing many of these devs don't realize from the old days of ARPGs was that, in most cases, the doors were there to hide the inside of them with fog-of-war. But no doors in POE work like that. Also, most players are already teleporting and jumping past every grated door, so I would say, at least make those doors give way to the character when they approach.

The training dummy would massively increase my creativity in building my character, not stifle it. The fact that I can't really observe incremental changes or directly compare large alterations just makes me throw my arms up in the air and say what's the point? It's like being in a room with 1,000 levers but the only way to see what any of them did was to step outside in the middle of a hectic chaotic warzone. I wish the focus wasn't on ziz using the word bug but emphasis was placed more on the rest of his phrasing. The ability to test if interactions are occurring, regardless if it's a bug or my misunderstanding of the mechanics, is the point to have a training dummy! The longer you've played and the more you know/understand the less impact this has but for new players especially it would be so helpful if they could just test an idea for a possible interaction and see it in real time in a controlled test environment. It's really not a big ask.

On the map affixes topic - if the main concern for implementation is the looks just give us the ability to prioritize the mods so that the item mods will be sorted based on the criteria, this way UI stays identical but you will just see the mods you're afraid of or are aiming for at the top or bottom of the mod list or however you'd choose to sort them.

Here is a "realistic view" of doors within the game context. We are exiles who struggle through Wraeclast eventually evolving, finding powerful items, unlocking our true potential, fighting and killing the most dangerous creatures in Wraeclast, fake gods, and eventually true gods. There is no reason why all the tools in our arsenal can't at some point blow open a door in a dungeon without the need of pressing the door handle. Some doors like the heist ones are protected by strong magic and can't be blown up, (or you need so much damage that you prefer to use the skills of the rogues, at least until some point).

@geronimo5515 3 ай бұрын

Happy to hear scarabs being more plentiful rather than "go low, than too high". A lot of issues fixed with that change, and the Limit makes it quite intruiging to experiment. On the topic of doors: i do wish they would telepathicly open, since we dont exactly do any animation to open them in the first place. I dont see them being more realistic to me, due to having to click on them. Immersion wise, its no diffrent for me, whether I open it, standing 2 meters away, clicking it, IT HIGHLIGHTING (as doors IRL do) and then opening without a single motion of my body. Or whether it just opens by its own, because some goblin trapped in the door mechanism opens it for me. But ay, its his decision, im happy incursion got automatic doors, thats already a blessing. the proposed div card solution by Mark was quite good. I do like to just pick a card pool, and run my prefered layout. this also allows you to swap to another map, if say you get bored of your prefered map after a week. then you swap the div cards again, and just carry on with your new prefered map. i think the point that matters in this topic is: Choice. If people do wanna run just 1 map, this fixes it. if people do wanna run diffrent maps (at least occasionally) its fixed. If people wanna run random map every time, the scarab fixes it. great upcoming change, would love that! the maven vs eldritch topic, i too think it'd be nice to run maven AND either of the other big guys. But as mark said, for the time being, I am beyond happy to just have seperate atlas trees to swap between, when I get tired of one grind type

I'm not sure of Neon will see this but with the Feared you could have a single "boss" health bar that has individual segments for each boss with their icon under each segment. So the one big bar across the screen but made up of smaller parts. Then after each one dies that segment can go away and make the others wider, or it can go to the far-right and be empty. I'm imagining like League of Legends health bars where 1K life has a defined line to break them up into 1K segments.

Note on the combat dummy: I love to experiment with builds from guides, but because of the lack of any target practice, I actually dont do that anymore. As I have to test in a map and waste time and resources on a modification that might not have been good for my build, dps wise. If I had a dummy I could test what my dps is and what change (item, skill point, etc) does actually increase-lower my damage. There could even be a dummy that damages you with a certain damage type in setable intervals (hit dmg, dot dmg etc). To test out how tanky you can be.

The passion they still have for a game when they have been working like demons for 10 years now is unreal. I was just comparing steam achievements with my battle buddy and we have a ton from 2013. So rare that a live service game 10 years in is in such a brilliant state.

Mark spoke about how he doesn't like the idea of having the fragments for the Uber fights drop from the normal versions of the fight since you've clearly trivialized it if you can clear the Uber. That is currently exactly how Uber Atziri works. Does Mark want to change how we access that fight?

the more i watch these interviews the more i realize why i love the game so much, Jonathan was saying that he doesn't want to remove the human element from trade, and now the doors in this interview. Yeah it's a video game, but it has a social aspect, and at the end of the day its a Role Playing Game, if everything is automated I might as well have a giant red AUTO PLAY button and leave it be. It might seem silly, but I love having to go to a town to buy supplies for crafting and I don't have a vendor in my hideout, is it annoying when i try to craft? fuck yeah, but i wouldn't want to change it.

Since they added filling inventory and trade window with one keys combination this league, I have no more problems with it.

Yeah, as much as I sometimes bitch and moan about people not responding to trade, overall it is a good system and makes the game seem somewhat multiplayer. Without trading with others, I'd literally never leave my hideout which makes the game feel tiny and disconnected.

It finally feels like the passion is back from the team. SO EXCITED for all these new changes. Love when the core game gets so juiced it doesn't even matter how the league mechanic goes.

I love how GGG devs sound like people/gamers, also the passion they show for the game and developing something FUN. Never once heard one interview of these guys that was "PR talk". Thanks GGG and Ziz for bringing such amazing content always!

Wow, everyone was thinking essences would be more pricey this league. With that calcification scarab they might be far cheaper than ever before.

Please communicate to Mark that fewer incubators is not the solution! Some of us (there are dozens of us I swear!) just really enjoy incubators even if some of the rewards are "less valuable" because the bar filling up and something dropping when you were killing monsters is fun. It seems silly, but this illusion of multitasking - furthering multiple small goals - is fun

Love the thoughts of Mark to stuf and Zizs interesting perspective! I currently still strongly miss the leftclick automation for guard skills and feel like there is room for both. Left Click is only one skill and if you use anything else instant aswell, automation has its place...

I don't know if I can say Mark 2 is my favorite mark. I was told its rude to say which is your favorite parent. But damn, he nailed this. Incredible job, one of the best examples I've seen of representing your company or product, giving customers access to their *spookyhands* vision. Really made me want to play this league, the next league, next game, and get some supporter packs along the way.
