Last Epoch devs bungle game launch of 1.0

Last Epoch is an ARPG for those who lack the PhD needed for PoE but don't want to play the Blizzard's kindergarten simulator D4.

Unfortunately the Developers EHG made some people that have never experienced a shit tier PoE launch big mad this week when they released the full 1.0 game on Tuesday and had massive server instability until yesterday.

Here are some of the common complaints:

  • General server shit storm. Load times between zones were upward of 5 minutes at one point. Inability to access online mode was common.

  • Characters disappearing from both online and offline play modes, which was temporary but caused massive sneed.

  • There was some bizarre "referral" program where you referred people in game to get a Bee pet. So as expected every post in global chat and reddit were people asking for referrals. Finally they just gave bee pets to everyone.

And this resulted in a general shitflinging on both the official groomercord and reddit between people simping for the unironic version of the "tiny indie studio" meme and others reporting EHG to the Hague for warcrimes.

Also several other hilarious bugs like HC characters dying during load:

In general the slap fighting has been hilarious:

For anyone wondering the game is pretty good and I believe servers, at least in the US are stable now JK tried now and load times are touch and go. The endgame is a bit light compared to maps in PoE but I suspect it'll have the same content creep over the new seasons.

I love last epoch but it just isnt as good as poe tbh.

The endgame just doesnt have enough depth.

Yeah it's more comparable to early PoE than PoE now.

I think if they add more "league" content in the future it could build up the endgame like PoE did.
