While this improved the PoE currency boredom problem of people playing the same areas repeatedly, it created an entirely new issue that we had not seen before: articles difficulty entitlement. It was quite frustrating, observing people intentionally sabotage their own progression and then getting angry about it.

Concept Art in War for the Atlas
One of the most interesting thing for a lot of fans is to find that the concept art that developers start with and to compare it to how it finally ends up when started.
