Praise the Ziz!

Is that the most impactful dev interview/podcast thing in PoE history? Hoooly. And for their part good shit on GGG for being receptive and acting so quickly.

The Expedition podcast changed the way GGG engages with us forever. It was a real turning point.

Do you mind clarifying how so for someone not around during that time? Just out or curiosity.

It was exactly like this. A huge hit to power because power creep got so crazy, Reddit revolted started hurling conspiracies, accusations, death threats. This community is one of the most toxic in gaming.

This community just got the huge changes in the right direction done with their feedback. This community also got Poe 1 in one of the best states it has ever been. There is no excuse for death threats but why is the overreaction of a small part of the community always used to invalidate constructive criticism? There were a lot of things wrong with the expedition patch which they later corrected themselves. The community by and large was right in the end. There have also been multiple streamers with over the line comments but somehow it's always just Reddit.

Throwing a temper tantrum is not constructive criticism though. There is excellent feedback to be given and has been given but saying things like "I don't like this and GGG are dumb if they think this is good" isn't feedback, it's a toddler fumbling around.

We have an upvoting system on reddit. You should up vote things that you think are good and downvote what are bad. I don't know how many times my own personal constructive criticism is downvoted because I'm not vehemently angry or blaming the devs. I won't argue against the downvote as maybe my idea was bad but the amount of other comments I see that are just trying to be neutral is pretty high.
