Oh it absolutely is, and it's totally understandable why they're making PoE2. But I think there's also a sizeable number of players whom that aspect (ye old spreadsheet simulator, that is) really appeals to, and what's more is that they're very devoted to the game. And while PoE2 might have a broader appeal, I'm not so convinced that it'll be able to retain as many of those players.
