<i> but if you find one that's fun, it will likely be nerfed in the next league. </i> That is what I find infuriating about the game. They are constantly messing with the skills tree and even if it doesn't destroy my characters I don't want to go back and rebuild them everytime I log in. So, when I initially played it, I gave them money and logged in pretty regularly for 6 months or so, then I didn't log in for a couple months and they literally destroyed my character by removing the linkage to opposite sides of the skills tree I was using (yah granted that character felt way overpowered). If they were smart, they would version the skills tree at the point of character creation, so people in the general global world don't get messed up every time they want to change the league play strategy.

the game is designed around the assumption you don't play a character for more than 3 months (< 5% of the playerbase plays in standard). I agree they could do a better job setting expectations with new players to not get attached to their characters.

I've sunk more than 2000 hours into PoE, and spent a few hundred dollars to support the devs. I had gotten into a groove where I'd play the "fun" leagues and skip the stinkers (because they tend to alternate: great-broken-great-broken). I have almost no time for gaming these days, between work and family. I backed the new System Shock on Kickstarter years ago, and I probably won't get to play it.
