About a month ago, on June 19, 2020, "Harvest" launched the current league in the action RPG Path of Exile. However, with a major update, another feature came into play, and not only the entire professional was complaining.
The problem this time is the new graphic effects: as the developers announced at the PoE trade fair Exilecon at the end of 2019, the first element of the successor should enter the game before the release of Path of Exile 2, and should also include the new The blooming effect. Of course, before the release of Path of Exile 2, there will be no shortage of daily updates. At the same time, players do not have to worry about insufficient POE Currency. IGGM has always provided services in this regard.
Flowers in video games can ensure that bright light sources brighten the surrounding area. A popular example is the sun, which emits much more light than when passing through a cloudy sky. However, the effect of the developer Grinding Gear Games is too high: different light sources (such as the flares of the Delve mine, the changing spectrum or the explosion triggered by skills) are so bright that many players almost feel blind.
However, the biggest problem with the entire game is that you cannot turn off the graphics effects. A few days ago, PoE community manager Bex provided a detailed explanation for this, which you can read on Reddit. In short: Until Harvest, the game used an outdated variant of Blooming technology. For this purpose, many effects (such as skills or glowing armor) had to be crafted carefully and manually equipped with the wrong Blooming particles to get the desired effect. The new system makes this work redundant.
With the removal of fake pollen particles, it becomes impossible to return to the old pollen system. Although developers can choose to shut down the new system, they did not provide it to the player because it would not display the various effects as the artist hoped.
Players still have hope: Bex promises that all assets that look particularly bad and dazzling should be optimized and become more affordable over time. The developer will also make suggestions so that the intensity of flowering can be determined more precisely in the options.
Prior to this, PoE players can use additional software such as ReShade to fine-tune the appearance of their gaming experience-as the developer has confirmed, this has also been officially approved. Although there have been many problems, the harvest alliance is still in progress. Players can still purchase POE Items and POE Orbs at IGGM. As always, the price is reasonable and the delivery is safe.
