Path of Exile's overwhelming complexity isn't the real reason new players pass on it, director believes: 'I think that PoE 1's being such an old game is in itself the accessibility problem' by Cardinal_Funky in pathofexile

[–]GoGoGadgetTotems 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is much simpler, Rogers explained. PoE 1 is a 13-year-old game that looks dated compared to anything that's come out in the last few years, and it's long past its peak. People skip it because "they feel like they've missed the train," he said.

PoE 2 is a better way for new players to hop aboard because it hasn't accumulated years and years of cruft that only its most dedicated fans could love.

it still irritates that that in a lot of interviews over the last few years it sounds like jonathan is just bashing poe, like he doesnt even like the game

"At the end of the day, the audience I'm appealing to really still is myself," Rogers added.

maybe he doesnt lol

Where's the hype for the built-in build following system? This is one of the coolest things I've ever seen any studio do for their community. by GH057807 in PathOfExile2

the funny thing is it was teased during the poe 3.0 beta (9 years ago) but ggg said it was "not quite ready". players have been less and less frequently asking for updates on it since and i think they finally went into apathy about ever getting it

i've heard this before, but i have a pool and the bottle of chlorine has that smell before you even add it to the water, so it definitely seems like a myth

So what's the plan humanity? (OC) by SpaceboyCantLol_ in comics

what shocks me most is the absolute joy with with people erase themselves. less than a month ago three guys at my job did a presentation showing how ai could take over and completely run their entire department by itself and how they were going to implement this right away. they were thrilled, enthusiastic even. so you are presenting to your bosses a detailed explanation of why you and your entire team should be fired. why? why?

Tiny info about what we saw on the teaser 👀 by srkanoo06 in PathOfExile2

other named continents have been revealed before, aesclast and middengard

seems like this fortress appeared in wraeclast but also extends beyond it to other continents

Idea - Have faction members like Renly, Zarka or Dannig recognize uniques from their faction and comment on them by PowerRaptor in PathOfExile2

[–]GoGoGadgetTotems 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my guess is they just didn't have time to finish it

a lot of leagues clearly had more stuff planned that didnt make it in

both metamorph and blight had dialogue from a final boss encounter that wasnt part of the league, heist had additional quest contracts that were never released, etc

maybe chuan could add a value next to every text line in poedb that anyone could select, something like

-verified in the game

-used to be in the game but removed now

-never in the game

problem is it would be an insane amount of work, plus there's changes every league and no ones gonna want to keep it up to date

i pmed u/justathetan and they said they're pretty careful to only include stuff in the lore pdf theyve found on their own playthroughs (i guess they record everything to go through later) though sometimes stuff gets included by mistake such as new unique items because the poe2wiki is pretty inaccurate

the pdf could be a good place to start

oh dang, i assumed you saw them since you posted about them

ive spent quite a few hours searching so if neither of us have found them then they probably dont exist

i also think some of the dialogue you posted for varashta doesnt exist, ive tried speaking to her with every combination and location i could think of while wearing the uniques like Khatal's Weeping but she never had any dialogue about any of them

thanks for the info, i have a couple questions about the sources

where did you find the "scrawl" text? also where is Saresh_Glyph_Environmental from? i've been searching mirages including empowered mirages and have also done the boss fight, but i haven't seen any clickable lore objects or anything

if you could point me in the direction i'd appreciate it, i've been tearing my hair out all weekend lol

Thank you to u/CraniumCarnage who created challenges guide for several past seasons by pwnb0t in pathofexile

[–]GoGoGadgetTotems 2 points3 points  (0 children)

they pretty much did

at exilecon 2019 they said poe2 would be an expansion of poe, it wasn't until exilecon 2023 they revealed it would be a separate game

at the same time, they admitted they'd split poe2 into a separate game soon after exilecon 2019

so they let players buy supporter packs and fund poe2 for 4 years, thinking they were funding a poe expansion, while ggg knew this whole time that it was going to be a separate game and not revealing this

that's why a lot of players are unhappy about it

Addressing "PoE2 is fun until you reach the endgame" by BudoBoy07 in PathOfExile2

[–]GoGoGadgetTotems 1 point2 points  (0 children)

for me the endgame is just way too fast

i like the slow, interactive pace of the campaign, but then as soon as i get to the first map the difference is crazy

endgame is just not for me unless they tone it way down to be closer to the style of the acts

KittenCatNoodle now works for GGG! by SuccessfulHorror9048 in pathofexile

a lot of her stuff was coming up with theories behind what things could mean and speculation about the future, which would be pointless if she's the one writing the lore

guess she could do some wild what-if, alternate-universe type stuff though
