For those that are unaware, for years one of the primary ways that hardcore players have played in PoE 1 is via a log-out macro. You lose a portal, but your character still lives. It's always been a bit controversial, but it's generally disliked (as in, the game shouldn't be balanced around it's existence)
It just seems crazy that it has not only crossed over to PoE2, but into softcore somehow.
The only use portals serve now, beyond going back for more loot, is to allow you back into the map if you quit and reconnect.
I mean it's nice that pausing means you don't need macro anymore, so thanks I guess?
