POE2 Needs a New Title Since it has Diverged so Far. How about "Wraeclast"?

Originally POE2 was actually POE 4.0, namely an extension, expansion and revamp of the original game. Now that the devs have created such a casuals focused, RNG heavy game with the explicit stated intention of making it simpler, longer, massively different and so on I think the game deserves its own name. This will also have the benefit of keeping the name "Path of Exile" for the classic game (which I enjoy much more to be honest.) So Suggestions? Please try to keep your post serious and not sarcastic.

My thoughts are to keep it simple and merely name it: "Wraeclast". It calls back to the POE legacy, it gives it its own identity and it makes it a very separate product. Also, if you think about it, Exile never happens in POE2. You are either dead or escape.

Such a low priority thing to even think about, the game sucks but not because of its name.

By the way, "Wraeclast" is a gay name also and makes me cringe every time I hear it.
I pretend that this game is taking place in a land NOT named something out of a cringe dungeons and dragons campaign.
Not sure how I feel about someone whose account name looks like and RMT bot.

At any rate, you didnt offer any other suggestions and naming isnt trivial. Companies spend millions on naming.

Back when it released and felt like a different game I questioned why it was called PoE2. Thought of the name "Wrath of Wraeclast". Fits the theme of punishing you and being souls-like or whatever.

Game still would have been what it is, though. Maybe perceptions would have been altered in their favor a bit.
That is what I always think. They should upgrade the graphic of Poe1 and call it Poe2, in the meanwhile, the current Poe2 should have another name and then they can make it even better with all the combat immersion visions like no rest for the wicked and no need for consideration of Poe1 veteran at all as a completely different game. Everyone will be happy.

Mods changed my name because they didn't like "Litler". Forced me to change all my in game names as well.
Then I got muted in game for 15 mins because a person told me he supports [Removed by Support]

Cool game. Cool game with cool, totally normal mods.

Interesting. Could also do something like "Corruption of Wraeclast" though that would be abbreviated COW ... might not be good ... yours would be WOW.
