bro, shouldn't you be developing your second game that you already released?

POE 2 is a bad game. I wish it never existed. GGG is promising to continue developing both games indefinitely because POE 2 is a different type of game.

Also POE 2 is still in "beta", so it shouldn't be the main focus. They shouldn't abandon a full project for an unfinished project.

They have currently promised to alternate expansion releases between each game at 2 months each league. POE 1 patch 3.27 was launched on October 31 2025. POE 2 patch 0.4 was released on December 12 2025. They are planning to release POE 1 patch 3.28 in early march. This means that 3.27 was only given 6 weeks of uninterrupted game play time, while patch 0.4 was given 12 weeks of play time. If you include 3 weeks of Phrecia into this situation, it makes things more even. 3.27 gets bumped up to 9 weeks and 0.4 is reduced to 9 weeks, making them even play time.

it's not released and the reason this event is happening is because they're spacing out POE1 leagues more than they were prior to POE2 development and POE1 players have nothing to do as a result.
