In the latest announcements, EHG said the next season will not be coming until March 26. This feels somewhat similar with a year waiting for PoE1’s boat league to end. However, considering so many Ls EHG has made recently. This 4-month-to-go waiting is extra exhaustive. Many people, include streamers, were expecting the new release to take place somewhere in January…
Your thoughts?
On the bright side, I hope this 4-month period gives them amber time to polish whatever they are cooking. They desperately need a huge W this time.
Do people have nothing yet to do? Besides games? Everything will be fine. They will hire everyone who is needed, form a team and the speed will increase. By the way, the time is illusion, even the nature doth not have it, only processes.
I would have liked to have had the next season earlier but we get what we get. I’ll be playing other games in the interim.
I think this is why LE isn’t profitable. People tend to purchase supporter packs at the start or near the start of a season. With it being so long between seasons you aren’t bringing people back frequently enough to make any money.
Chris Wilson had stated that being consistent with the timing of their releases was one of the most important things they did the get PoE off the ground and making money. EHG just can’t seem to get this down at the moment.
It was obvious. It’s the snails pace I was counting on. I wish them to take their time and to deliver quality content. That’s worth much more then throwing out bad stuff just because people can’t wait a few days. On top of it I won’t be suprised if the season collides with the next PoE2 season again.
Yeah, it’s very likely, and the argumentation of ‘not colliding with PoE’ won’t ever work anyway.
They got a 2 month cycle, any little delay will mess the whole situation up anyway. EHG got to provide a decent product overall or they’ll simply not do well, that’s all they need.
I personally don’t think Cycle 4 will do it… 5 might, 6 potentially with the expansion. Hopes are there but my trust in it is miniscule.
I’m a bit sad and I don’t think it will be that awesome to me. First of all the engine isn’t that awesome for this kind of game. The art style feels like a dead end to me. Doubbeling down on the void style isn’t cutting it for me.
The part I’m most intrested in is the balancing part. Sadly I’ll belive it when it is there because everyone right now should know that balancing isn’t a trong suit of EHG at all. I hope they take their time and get everything done without becoming a bigger joke for myself.
I get it some people love the game and I’m realy happy for everyone who is in love with LE and has the best time of their life. My hope is diminished and right now I guess there are better chances I can do 100 push-ups in a row before I like LE as much as I liked it back in the day.
