Path of Nerfs

Chris, I once listened to someone interviewing you and one of your statements really stuck with me. You mentioned that you wanted a game for working class folks to come home from work and grind a little before bed. A game where money does not buy you advantages. Your MTX model was genius and you were basically describing me and most of the people I play this game with. They have income to spend on things the find entertaining.

Not a single one of us have ever made it to level 100. Hell, I think I have the highest level character at 96 and it was because I had a long break. No normal person grinds to 100 in a couple days or ever for that matter. Normal people play new patches when they aren't working and buy cool mtx once in a while. There is always the hope that one day someone will make 100. It sits out there as a possible goal. I'm afraid it's no longer possible.

Maybe I don't play enough or use the things you nerfed. None of it matter to me except the experience nerf. As a comparison, I played D3 when it first came out for a while. I was lucky enough to get an awesome drop - Shard of Hate. It was absolutely the best thing I found and I was having a blast for about 2 days. I came home from work stoked to play and there was a patch that day, nerfing Shard of Hate, because some fucking streamer was using it and Blizzard got their panties in a wad. I was so pissed I logged out and refused to ever play that fucking game developed by professional stream watchers again.

You're sliding down a razor over a pool of alcohol with these decisions. This can easily go south, fast. You're getting focused on the minority and not silent majority. Stop worrying about streamers and meth heads, they don't matter to the majority. They will always be around. Punishing the majority for a few is a sure way to piss people off. I'm writing this but most people I know won't because they react with their wallets. They will remain silent, and just like the last US election, you'll be standing there like CNN dumbfounded, confused and wondering what the fuck happened. Keep your devs off twitch and keep the servers healthy. Start talking to the people who never had a chance at 100 because they work for a living.

I didn't say any "casual friendly" game. You did. You aren't seriously telling me plants vs zombies is a suitable alternative to poe are you?

I'm glad you agree I don't have any alternatives.
