Really like they’re doing destiny style seasons with story content. Bit annoying I have to restart for each season however.
Feels like they needed to separate the live service seasons and the traditional “ladder” seasons in this game or I can see a lot of folk dropping off longer term.
I have no problem restarting a new character for a season. It gives a great reason to try new classes or builds that utilize the new season mechanics.
What I would want to know is what happens to the season’s “gimmick” or “mechanic” once it’s over? Like, season 1 introduces new gems and new dungeons to farm them. Fun! But is that only for the 3 months Season 1 is out and then never again?
They said some may make it into the eternal realm and some may show up in future seasons as regular additions. They don’t want to state for sure as they want to see how each seasons mechanics are viewed by the players before making such decisions.
They also won’t want all of them in the eternal realm because they feel like it would just make it a complete mess many season down the line.
So basically a wait and see and case by case basis. Which makes sense in my opinion.
I am really glad that they offer to skip the campaign, because I always found replaying the campaign pretty boring in PoE.
Yup, same. I love Path of Exile but very, very rarely ever made more than 1 character per season as I hate doing the campaign.
I got to level 50 and stopped playing. Steam sale probably affected things but D4 doesn’t have the same pull yet as D3 did. Hopefully this new season will help.
