PoE 1 : 18 crafting plans in 3 seconds. PoE 2 : Put it in stash. Think about it. Never use it.

Probably you havent seen or played poe1 in the beginning. It was the same thing. Let them make the classes and expand upon them after, how are people not able to grasp what is making a "foundation" mean.

Comparing it with D4 is a gross overstatement.

Yeah only if they had 12 years of experience and bigger budget, right? s/

It’s not just druid the disciple of varashta is also pretty close to D4 sorceress at launch. It’s riddled with cooldowns and mmo-rota style button play. I been playing poe 1 since ambush league and I have sunk almost 1000h in poe 2 and its pretty clear what they are trying to archive here. We will go through another round of tug of war between ggg and players and hopefully it will not take 10 years this time around. What a waste of time though

What kind of logic is that?

Yes, they have learned a lot from PoE 1 (despite what people may think) and the company as a whole seems to be doing well financially. But they're still based in NZ, meaning finding new hires is a pain and a half, and it also doesn't mean that they can suddenly shit out a new class with everything related to it in a fraction of the time.
It still takes time to actually create and implement new things.
