We are coordinating closer with GGG and patches will be further away from one another going forward so players don’t have to choose which game to play.
Super excited! Very happy to hear about a new paladin skill too!
All of this looks really good. Endgame being expanded is what we really needed. Thanks for the actual update!
Looks nice, on the other hand i don’t see anything about QoL for MG market, it could really use some nice things like affix tier limit (so you don’t see those stupid primordial ones) or amount of random tier 6/7 affixes on an item. Other than that can’t wait, just thinking that we could get moved to Legacy so MG actually can engage with a bigger playerbase and CoF wouldn’t mind it too probably i think.
We understand the concern and no generated assets are used or planned to be used in game. AI is being adopted for backend processes like task tracking, ensuring documentation is up to date, and things that generally empower our team as you’re seeing throughout the whole tech industry, not content creation.
1.5 with the ‘rework’.
Could be anything, could be basically worthless nothing. Not happening in 1.4 basically. At their pacing we’ll see it late 2026 or early 2027.
One day we will get actually Necro skill updates, but this looks nice.
Looks great! Super excited for the future, I hope it all comes together!
The studio knows the community is wary of how Krafton’s involvement in the studio could affect the EHG you guys have come to know and it’s up to us to prove that this is a positive. We will work hard to do so.
Fuck… that game was so peak, why Crafton, WHY ?! i’m so sad, i really wanted to be hype for LE, i hope they can bring me back to peak gaming, i hope the next extension is a banger and i heard about it everywhere, i hope Crafton is giving a big chunk of money for communication management, please, predge.
? are you for real. obviously the paid classes are going to be the better ones, otherwise no one would buy them. it would be ridiculous you pay for a class and then the class underperforms. so it’s effectively making the game pay2win. i don’t think it will separate the community into playing the expansion, and playing the pre-expansion content. it will straight up separate it into the ones paying, and the ones quitting the game. this is an awful bet, and chances are they will loose it, at least in western countries. maybe in asia it works, which is probably why they’re doing it. basically sacrificing the game here, to make more money there, and profit in the overall scheme. and this sends a clear message. our game is not good enough so that people just spend money on it for love, like in POE. we have to FORCE you to pay us, because otherwise you wont. not to mention the game was promised to be 1 payment game forever over the many years we were in beta. so whatever. whoever wants to play, good for you, to me, the game is not that good to spend a cent on it, when i have POE1. as i side note, i’ve spent over 3k over the last 5 years on POE, without being FORCED to… ask yourself why.
Yay like this direction alot looking forward to the release, gonna be eagerly waiting
Basically all many wanted to hear.
A date for when we can see the next action and hence proving us how that action will be.
I recommend retracting the paid classes and using alternative monetization methods and future expansions for getting income. Something which is not ‘functional in-game content’ of any kind.
sure ! lol
Now this is a proper update! thank you guys for putting this together! A lot of good stuff here and looking forward to some of this changes.
I love LE and love what you’ve done to advance the genre. But really, March? At a certain point, you have to be able to keep a consistent pace of release. You said before that you don’t want to have us waiting this long again and yet, here we are. Loving the game, not loving the release schedule. Especially when you got a huge infusion of capital from Krafton and yet, STILL it’s delayed by this much.
DLC cost when?
Thank you for the roadmap. as well as the teasers, much appreciated
also i’d like to say: you are all appreciated at EHG.
seeing all the negativity and assumptions about the future of the game is heartbreaking to witness.
as much as some worries or doubts may hold truth and validity, i dont think it warrants this amount of a negative outcry.
i believe in judging what is actually there, and not “what might”
and so far, the “whats actually there” has been great. sure theres been some bugs, some occasional rough edges. but expecting perfection would be unfair.
all in all, i just wanna say; you got this. i am willing to bet you’d likely have preferred to go down a different route, but your hand was forced. game or no game basically.
so for all im concerned, im glad you are taking the chances, even if some outcomes look grim.
Its been a great ride thus far with last epoch, and ive enjoyed my time every season.
whatever happens, know I’ve had fun, and im hopeful to have more in the future : )
Anyways, enough! cant wait for the release : ) excited for how Season 4 will be. stay strong
Yes we know the timeframe is a bit longer here. We’re working simultaneously on everything needed for console (it’s really a lot) and going through process and platform changes with the studio integration. We want to make sure that the content is worth inviting everyone back for rather than rushing out content we can’t reasonably tell ourselves WILL be worth your time. Season 4 will be good when it’s in your hands
Honestly praised this game so much, played it a good amount too. This patch, this update i stopped following. I saw the crystal as I scrolled, looked cool. I genuinely would have been sk excited to play.
Instead there is a paid class and I can not and will not get behind this. It is going to kill your player base. I say this because i want the game to succeed. This is a HORRIBLE idea. Sure you will make some short term money. Though long term this is bad.
GGG have never had anything paid outside of betas and MTX stash tabs even this is controversial too but it is understandable. I have spent the most money on POE than any other game. I buy supporter packs even if i don’t like them because they always do good by their community.
A long time ago I wanted a portal MTX that was on said and did not have enough points. GGG allowed me to send $1 though PayPal for the points. That is crazy that is insane care for customers. Sure they were smaller then, though the care for the community hasn’t changed so continue to support.
I have coming onto 20k hours in POE, it is pretty much all I play. Over $1000 spent on POE. I grantee you, if they put out a paid update or a paid class. Anything Paid that isn’t cosmetics / storage I will quite the game instantly.
The hands down best ARPG on the market would kove a player with 20k hours over what your company is doing. Your company stands no chance.
I understand this is coming from your investors now, but they have already tarnished your brand. Bad move thibk long term.
I REALLY want this game to succeed, it is the best alternative to POE. Don’t allow the greed of your piblisher to destroy what coukd have been. Change this before it’s to late. I really do eish the best for you guys, but if this goes though, I will never play the game again and that’s a shame.
