Yeah running into the Connection issue as well. Can’t zone and can’t load into the game at all.

The ARPG market is extremely volatile. The first week of a new season/cycle/league are absolutely crucial to success… PoE is probably my most played game of all time… I’ve spent thousands on mtx… and I’ve legit quit leagues in the first weekend if the servers weren’t stable. 2-ish years ago they had a few rough league starts in a row and I quit playing the game altogether for over a year, because my (irrational) thought was, “if I can’t get a good start over opening weekend, why play the league at all?” People will inevitably come to this same conclusion with LE and the total player-base will dwindle to the point where it’s so small that the entire project becomes financially unviable to support… First impressions are everything… It may seem like hyperbole, but server issues this bad could legitimately be the death of the game before it even starts.

I am a veteran player, i have sat through 6 hour-long queues at the start of wow classic. I have played the shit of LE during early access so i know its a very good game and nice addition to play inbetween PoE leagues.
BUT I kinda dont want to play a dead game if most people refund/leave because the game they paid for is inaccessible.
- it kinda feels like they went home for a weekend and we are stuck with a broken product (im not saying that happened, im just saying it FEELS like it)

That’s a bit dramatic.
Enjoy your time playing something else.
I’d rather they figure it all out in-house, and NOT sell their game to
a AAA company that turns it into a money grab.
I love this game so much… it’s a shame none of us can play. A day or so of server issues is understandable, but this is past ridiculous now. Please allow for refunds, so we can put our money towards something we can actually use. May revisit down the road.

Everyone is looking at the long load times the wrong way. If you exercise or clean while ur loading, think of how much you could get done!

The fkin game still loads forever…
There is absolutely no excuse to deliver such a bad performance.
Keep in mind that the users have paid a lot. Every normal company who is performing that bad will not survive…

Indeed.
Don’t mind if they sorting out issues, it’s a good game and I’ll wait. What I do mind is looking at a connecting screen for 20 min, then when the game loads and as soon as you transition it hangs… If there is issues then let us know when before connecting and hoping… just disable connecting online until it is sorted "online is currently experiencing issues and you cannot connect at the moment. we are fixing, please try again later or play offline "
