Hideout - Decoration Limit

This issue was frequently raised in Path of Exile 1, and it will be disappointing to see it carry over into Path of Exile 2.

I’ve been working on the bottom-right section of my Limestone Hideout for my guild, and I've already hit the decoration limit. I enjoy adding intricate details to my hideouts, placing small items that fill in the gaps and bring the space to life.

The solution is simple: either make the hideouts smaller or raise the decoration limit. What's the point of such expansive hideouts if you can't fully decorate them, other than placing the basics and calling it done?

This was a frustrating issue in POE1, and I really hope it’s addressed before the official release of POE2.

I 100% agree with you, and I really hope GGG takes this into consideration.

The decoration limit is one of the only things holding back what could be an even more immersive and creative aspect of PoE. Hideout design is more than just a side feature—it’s a major part of the game for many players, including myself. When you want a break from intense endgame content but still want to engage with PoE, hideout decorating is the perfect way to do it.

The current 750-item cap feels arbitrary, especially when the hideouts themselves are large enough to support way more decor. Instead of limiting creativity, GGG could introduce a scalable decoration limit option in the settings menu, letting players adjust it based on their PC's capabilities. That way, those with high-end machines can push the limits while others can stick to a lower cap if needed.

From a business perspective, increasing the limit would directly increase revenue for GGG. I’d personally spend a lot more money on decorations if I wasn’t constantly forced to stop because of an artificial restriction. And I know I’m not the only one. I’ve already convinced three friends to get into hideout decorating, and if we had more freedom, we’d all be investing even more in this part of the game.

GGG, you’re sitting on an untapped goldmine here. If you raise the cap—or even offer a way to unlock higher limits through supporter packs or purchases—you’ll have dedicated players like me happily throwing more money at you. Please, don’t let this be another POE1 frustration that carries over to POE2.

More decorations = more creativity, more engagement, and more revenue for you. It’s a win-win.
