4 month league cycle is way too long

"
You must remember a lot of players have a LIFE and jobs and play only a hour per day or less and too fast cycle do not let them reach deep in endgame.


Yes lots of lost souls thinking they're a poe-player. Also lots of Fortnite players.

4 months was never the goal anyway so don't kid yourselves. After release this will not be on a 4-month schedule because of the only statement ever said on this: "We're leaving money on the table". But surely there's a world where they give up 25% revenue to please dad gamers. Wait, wrong game.

I'd imagine it falls to a 3 month cadence eventually, which has been typical for PoE 1 too.

Making the cadence too short, like 1 month, would prolly just mean that a lot of players remain in the previous league; meaning that, there's less general hype and excitement for the league launch and meaning that there's less activity in trade.
+1 on this

This league will be 5 months long once patch 0.5 hits. What's going on over at GGG?

100 days is the absolute max for league in my opinion!

Since 50% of new POE 2 players have gone, it became not profitable to run leagues every 2 months (POE1 + POE2). Because same people play them both. So it seems like 5-6 months will be a new window for POE1,2 leagues. 3 months for poe 1, then 3 months for poe 2.
They said it would be 4 months. It should be 4 months.
Until they prepare and announce the cycle change, they should keep their word.
Such postponing is looking really bad and if we land on 6months i am going to quit even tho i have almost 2k hours in poe2 (0 hours in poe1).
6 months would be just unbearable for me and how i play games.
People who actually quit don't announce it.

Seeya in 0.5!
Who am I to say anything, I don't respect my time either.
