Detailed overview of Diablo 3 vs. Path of Exile
" Then this brings us back to something I have already posted... You didnt leave the game due to desync but many supporters indeed DID. Get it? just because you didnt doesnt mean other wont neither... Let's put in this way, there are plenty of games that made BILLIONS and BILLIONS of dollars and those games sure didn't tell players to stfu and deal with their programming flaws or telling them to use a 3rd party scripting program and spam some scripts (again this is illegal/bannable in most AAA games). Imaging if Dota2 or LoL played like PoE... LoL has 12 million player logins on daily basis and are making billions of dollars... and it's also an indie game... and its also f2p... The real hardcore PoE players and the elites sit in town and zoning in and out of their hideouts trading items. Noobs that don't know how to play PoE correctly, kill monsters for items. It's pure fact, it will never change.
Welcome to PoE. |

"Edited down to the only part of this whole event which GGG should actually give a fuck about. When Stephen Colbert was killed by HYDRA's Project Insight in 2014, the comedy world lost a hero. Since his life model decoy isn't up to the task, please do not mistake my performance as political discussion. I'm just doing what Steve would have wanted. Последняя редакция: ScrotieMcB#2697.

" Epic bait and switch indeed. It worked and they got their pound of flesh from me. This is now solidly in the 'full me once shame on you, full me twice..." category for me. Maybe Blizzard North will come back......then maybe so will I. Until then, no thanks. Thanks for all the fish!

" Everyone and their mom knows that PoE has the worst desync in the entire genre... even GGG knows that. If the so called tech change is indeed about desyncs you really think GGG wouldnt advertise it? Lets just have a extremely wishful thinking that this tech change is about desyncs sure but judging by GGG's tune... it's most likely something that "will help a little bit but not really type of thing like when they said they fixed micro stutter". Also Chris mentioned a tech change not "a massive" tech change. The real hardcore PoE players and the elites sit in town and zoning in and out of their hideouts trading items. Noobs that don't know how to play PoE correctly, kill monsters for items. It's pure fact, it will never change.

" Yea guys make sure you dont get fulled by all the crazy company that's trying to full you all the time like its their full time job to full you all the time.

" I'm not saying that is not important, it is. All I'm saying is this guy tried to take an objective approach to grading to include weighted categories scored separately with a mathematical conclusion....then let his personal feelings bias the outcome. It was clear he had decided the outcome before he started to me. That in and of itself makes the referenced article for this whole thread garbage. This thread and analysis carries more weight for me than the referenced article by OP: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1206710 Get some Megaman! (I loved Mega Man 3 on NES when I was a kid) I guess I take exception to desync being the end all/be all decision for POE. For some that might be the case, but don't mistake that as an all encompassing answer for all of us. Desync is a minor issue for me, far outweighed by the other elements of the game. If there was one thing that I would have GGG steal from D3 (and believe me, I mean the only thing) it would be the engine and fight mechanics. That is one area where D3 shined for me, the combat mechanics were quite fluid. BUT, POE as a whole is better and desync does not tear it down close to enough to change that for me. Thanks for all the fish!

" Suckered has such a negative connotation to it :) It was more of a means of expression to discuss the OP (which probably has gotten more attention than it should). The Mega Man vs. POE thread should have gotten this many pages. Thanks for all the fish!

" You are aware of that you reach endgame gear (as in gear worth over 10 exalt each in temporary leagues) much faster in PoE due to being proficient in trading? You are aware of that both games have a hardcore mode that appeal to the "having tangible risk with dying"? To pretend as if the games are intended to appeal to completely different demographics is to be lazy or naive. Both games try to appeal to hardcore and casual players. A big actual difference is that D3 is not intended to attract players that love trading, while PoE is intended to attract people who like in-efficient trading. This message was delivered by GGG defence force.

" Thanks for the laugh I guess :3 You're not worth getting rekt so I'll leave it at that. GGG banning all political discussion shortly after getting acquired by China is a weird coincidence.
