POE devs only care about reddit and upvotes rather than inviduals

[ps5 sucks]

its sad to see this game is influenced by reddit only and this form is useless.

anyways I would like to see some more markers dropped in a map..

maybe you should use reddit or their own forums if it bothers you that much.

I dislike reddit just as much as reddit dislikes itself, but it is a better place for the devs to communicate with their player base. You have much more freedom on reddit to say what you want, you just hope for good moderators to run the sub to control all the trash that floats there.

reddit is a great tool. It count's upvotes/downvotes and give a nice idea on people opinions, like "heist is worst than maps - 93% upvoted" that means that the vast majority of the playerbase agrees that changes are needed

Well 2516 think that of 77000~ Aktive Players.

Ah but they are right it sucks that Heists got nerfed.

At first the Mechanics were outright stupid, but rewarding.
Then they went to meaningless easy and rewarding.
And now they are just Meaningless boring and not even rewarding.

Well, you obviously have no idea how this works. You're assuming that most of those active players who don't post on forums anywhere are not represented among those 2k?

The reddit system is easily manipulated and is a common theme on the site. With how easy it is to create a new account and how people have separate accounts to influence threads and comments.

It sounds like a nice idea, but you have to remember that anyone can influence a comment or a thread, and if you’ve been on the site long enough you know not to trust most of what is upvotes.

The reddit hive mind is a thing.

I agree..

Try posting a thread on Reddit that is critical of an aspect of PoE, within 1 or 2 hours it gets 10-20 downvotes..

It's not until the community (in thier 100's or 1,000's) get behind a post, that reality is truly visible..

Most criticism gets buried early on, with the 10-20 down-votes hiding it..

Huge difference between being critical of the game and throwing a tantrum. Typically the hive mind will upvote or downvote whatever the initial majority is voting. Since most people from reddit can’t think for themselves they rely on the hive mind to tel them how to think/vote. This is why you get people coming to the forums crying about their posts being deleted or moderates and when you do investigate it’s someone who is spamming the same memes or toxic attitude.

You just want the negatives to surface and the positives to drown. This is apparent in the way you try to construct your arguments, and that’s being generous calling them arguments and not tantrums.

This isn't how votes work on Reddit, they are not 1:1. It's weighted and ratio'd based on a ton of different values between who posted the topic, who voted, etc. All of which have their own influence into the value that is shown. See the FAQ, as to why the shown value is also fuzzed:

2000 upvotes is not the majoirty of the playerbase of 50,000 + players. Reddit upvoting system is also flawed since botting could happen. mob rule shouldn't take over a gaming company it should be up to one person which is chris wilson to make that decision. however, I think its still not fair indlvidual ideas that may not get upvoted get turned down and not been seen.

people who also disagree with the upvotes would get downvoted and there expression is not shared since the top comments are seen first.

this game wasn't built on a community giving a bunch of ideas it was a few men or women who had a direction

[ps5 sucks]

like back in the day reddit wasn't for gaming ideas. it was forum based where everyone had a chance to share there idea even if it was a ♥♥♥♥ one. people disagree and agree and debate it on the forums. its not a flawed point based system.
