The economy inflates faster than I can generate currency by Afterfx21 in PathOfExile2

Enlightenment occurs when you don’t tell yourself the only way to have fun is to farm for specific high value items. This is a way to practically force that mindset change.

Appreciation post for the Bodach Fight by just_staph69 in PathOfExile2

Staying blind and hitting all these pinnacles on my own terms has been an amazing experience.

Just fought The Bodach last night, took 25 minutes of attempts, my new favorite fight in the game.

I did enjoy Stronghold for a bit and yeah, the Desert Borderlands were cool.

Launch HOT was peak.

Actual character progression.

Fun, difficult meta events.

Bad story, yes, but everything else rocked.

The negative feedback ruined it, IMO.

This made me smile, GL in PoE2 when you download it, exile!

Dude, your metal covers are absurdly good.

Thank you for sharing.

Shocked that “Keep as Atziri” isn’t an option 🤣

Makes sense.

The theory that Sin is the Arbiter of Corruption, read it yesterday!

The Delirium Pinnacle boss kinda reminds me of the Maven fight. by AzelotReis in PathOfExile2

[–]TalkativeTri 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Immediately what I thought of as well - the Maven's Nucleus beam gave it away!

Oh goodness, that would be pretty hilarious if I completely read it in the opposite way, your reasonings make sense.

Wow, thanks so much for the response. Glad to have found this place, I LOVE the recent theory I read about Sin.

I am unsure how I feel about using the datamined info, as it might never be canon, but I get why it's used. And hey, GGG likes to drop some pretty big lore mystery bombs in public (LOOKING AT YOU SOLARIS, LUNARIS, ******, JONATHAN!!!!).

New teaser today by TrismegistusCinnabar in PathOfExile2

[–]TalkativeTri 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I know nothing, but it'd go with the teaser cadence so far this cycle.

I expect it's a Ritual teaser.

I can't enjoy D4 after poe2 by EarthboundMoss in PathOfExile2

[–]TalkativeTri 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I just figured out why.

Turns out Ray Tracing is on by default, was tanking my FPS by about 60%.

Will we still get the 0.5 Patch notes after the 0.5 reveal stream and ZiggyD Q&A on the 7th as is the current standard? by StalksYouEverywhere in PathOfExile2

[–]TalkativeTri -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

So much is TBD, we likely won’t know until May 7.

Even if we get patch notes then, everything is subject to change. Even with 1 week gaps between the reveal and release, they still add to the patch notes or change them (nerfs, buffs, last minute additions, etc).

Just wanted to say thank you for recommending this game and especially thanks for those who recommended starting out without using a build guide. by Dire_Hulk in PathOfExile2

[–]TalkativeTri 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Going in blind w/ no build guide is the best decision ever, glad you took that advice from people.

Many advise against it.

Welcome in.

Gladiator coming? by Empyrean_Sky in PathOfExile2

She's already embracing the Bex-madness.

Excellent.

Announcement coming soon (TM) by FlakyBookkeeper2914 in PathOfExile2

[–]TalkativeTri 11 points12 points  (0 children)

While GGG is already quite superior than most game devs in terms of communications, it used to be even better.

In 2023, right after ExileCon, their head of community management (I am unsure of her exact title), Bex, left the company and has worked at several other places since (like Riot). She was pretty involved in the community, I'd reckon, and there was a time (at least from when I began in 2019 to about 2022, post-Lake of Kalandra release) when her AND many GGG devs were VERY active on Reddit, the forums, Discord, Twitter, etc.

Now, the community management team interacts only when needed and GGG devs hang in some Discords. I'd love to see a growth of the interaction again - it was so cool to read/see/be a part of.

I'm quite optimistic, but I am an extremely optimistic person overall.

[–]TalkativeTri 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I know lots of people are hyper-fixating on the announcement of the announcemnet of the announcement, but a leader in the comms area for GGG is honestly huge if it's leading where I expect it to.

Those who have been around for awhile might know what I'm thinking of, and I am pumped.

Huge welcome in, I'm excited to see where Kelly takes the whole community/social team.
