Another Day. Another POE2 Emergency Patch. Medallions Back. We Need To Talk Clickbait. POE2 0.4.0c

Описание: #poe2 #pathofexile2 #patchnotes

We need to talk about ragebait and clickbait - hotfix 13 was bad but content creators ALSO had a financial incentive to overstate how bad. You should be aware of that.

1:50 Why "CASUAL PLAYERS - THIS IS THE END" takes did so well
2:02 You Should Know: Making Players Angry Enough To Not Log In Makes Content Creators Money

4:07 This is a good patch, but too late... just like the last ones
4:22 Chris Wilson's recent video on trade league economy integrity - not about this exact issue but worth a watch
