Path Of Exile

[Salty Ferret]

Good day Lads/Ladies,

Path of exile is what Diablo 3 should of been. it is extremely fun and addictive to create your own character.

www.pathofexile.com

This game was made by the guys that made Diablo 2 and left blizzard to start POE.

So here is the just, I made my own tech tree, which i am following. it took me a total of 30mins planning this during working hours makes me extremely happy.

this is just one aspect of the game...items get technical too.

just give it a download, try it with us and you will see how vast and amazing this game is.

Kind Regards,

The fact that someone that isn't me has made a thread about another game makes me f*cking squeel! GG Grant.

I have been playing it on and off since it was in closed beta actually. Great game, easy to pickup, monstrously difficult to master. Also, more hardcore than Diablo. If you build your character to be able to use ranged weapons and 1 handed swords and shields and spells, after 3 hours, you'll realise you can't do any of those well enough and will have to reroll. Jack of all trades, master of none applies.

Best advice is to do a tad bit of research (like you would any RPG) to figure out what type of character you want, find an existing build (or make your own like Grant) and stick to it.

Game is a 3.8GB download on Steam.

^ go look at that just to see the SKILL TREE and see what makes this game seriously unique

I think you'll find that Grant was the guy that persuaded me (and Morph) to buy Wildstar, and then promptly quit playing it a few weeks later...

PoE looks good, but I just didn't gel well with it unfortunately. In particular I found the view to be a little bit too zoomed in for comfort.

That said, if there are a bunch of Grrrbians playing, I'll be happy to give it another try.

Listen, wildstar was awesome, the only issue was the community of kids...and look at it now...they have dropped down to one server because it was a flop.

POE is free, and that camera issue you had has been fixed, so bleh!

[TygerBS]

no

[KakHard]

Peggle it is...

[Morphza]

I can support you 50% on the Skill Tree .... It is unique and awesome, but at the same time... if you don't follow the correct line, your character will not be optimal, so there really is not pick and choose when it comes to your skill tree.

How have they fixed the camera?
- Last I played the ranged mobs could attack you from out of screen.

Plus... the graphics leave something wanting :(

[Salty Ferret]

The Camera is fixed.

The graphics are amazing, have you ever zoomed in? the reason they like that from afar is because they so intense Morphza

[Kill_Inc]

okay i will be judge now.... i dont have a steam account... so i probably have to create a account to download it. and i loved diablo 2 soooo i might convert to the poo i mean poe. duzt dont lie to me is it crazy and good like diablo 2

[Paul]

It is 2014 and you don't have a steam account? Are you even a gamer?

[Salty Ferret]

hahahah yes KILL its a great game...HOW can you not have steam!!!!

[Phatso]

Regarding the skill tree, while you are somewhat correct, I have actually read that they made the tree a little more forgiving. There was a big shuffle around/tweaking in this most recent content patch.

You can deviate from all the prebuilt builds to a certain degree, depending on playstyle. There are nodes however known as "notables" "keystones" that are key to any build. Think of these as "game-changers" in your build that would make certain skills either epic and core, or lacklustre and not worth. Extract from: http://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree

Alongside the regular passive skills are Notable and Keystone passives. Notables have slightly larger icons, specific names and larger effects. They help guide players to build their characters on a macro level, allowing them to see at a glance what a cluster of passives skills does by examining its Notable passive. Keystone passives, however, fundamentally change the way a character is played by altering the game rules. They usually have one positive effect and one negative effect. For example, Necromantic Aegis takes away the properties of your shield, granting them to your minions instead of to you.
Also, here are some examples of Keystones:

583584585586587

(http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Keystone)

Of course you can get hit from spells cast by mobs off the screen. This happens in big open areas. Thats like saying "getting shot from somewhere". This game isn't supposed to be easy.

Re graphics, meh, personal preference. I like it because its gritty.

If people want information, I will provide, but the days of me begging people to play games are over.

WHAHAHAHAHAHA

[Cat Nipples]

I've still got it on my pc (I think), I'm just afraid of it sucking me into a deep black hole because I can see myself playing this for hours on end and recreating my character 5053 times to get it just right.

[Morphza]

Yea, I still had mine installed... fired it up and played a little last night.

They HAVE NOT fixed the camera ! :D

[Megageth]

Can't say that I have had any issues with the camera. I've been on a couple of days. Pretty good for a free game. Not sure how long it will hold me but, its free and I am enjoying it so far.
Anyone who got into Diablo should install it asap. Its the same genre, and they have tried to do away with some of the more frustrating aspects of the Diablo series.

[Morphza]

The camera need to be a little further back, and at a slightly different angle... currently it limits what you can see of the environment around you.


ie... If you are moving to the right or up, you can see what it coming, if you are moving down or left, you are blind sided.

True that Morph, would have been really cool if you could zoom out as with Supreme Commander, but then they not close being the same game....

[J_Th4ng]

I agree Morph, I found the view to be somewhat claustrophobic when I played the game. Not just from being blindsided, but also from an aesthetic point of view.

[WondaWoman]

Sweet, a bunch of us are playing this. I prefer LOTRO and GW2, but I go with the flow. Maybe see you guys online ;)
