How i play Path of Exile:

"I should play POE, i haven't played it in a few years."

"Oh, they added 7 new acts, 300 new currencies, 900 new skills and thousands of other things since last time."

How i play Path of Exile:

"I should play POE, i haven't played it in a few years."

installs POE

"Oh, they added 7 new acts, 300 new currencies, 900 new skills and thousands of other things since last time."

"Hmm, all my characters got reset and i forgot most of their builds. Also, did the passive tree get four times as big?"

"Man, my inventory has 12 tabs and i can't really remember what's good and what is crap. Also, i'm not sure which of those 40 skill gems i need."

"I'll just try a new character in expedition [temporary league with separate inventory]."

"Oh man, this skill is fun but i want to try some other characters too."

"After doing Act 1 five times i'm kinda sick of it, let's try one of my old characters that is higher level."

"Ok. I found a new build, sold a bunch of crappy items, picked new passives and re-arranged my skills. This is it!"

"Wow, this necromancer build really murders everything."

"Did the maps get a lot bigger? Why doesn't the exit not show until i get near it? Why does this quest make me walk back all the way at this slow speed?"

"Oh yeah, i have a dozen quest awards i haven't picked up because i don't know what to pick."

"I kinda wanna try a different character but everything will be reset again in three weeks. I'll just wait for that"

uninstalls and forgets about POE for years

Repeat from top.

Seriously, this game has grown so big and complicated it's insane.

There is probably very little overlap between the Grouvee community and potential Path of Exile players, but details of the next league got announced last night if anyone wants a cheeky gander.

PoE is my 2nd most played game (behind Dota 2) and is fucking dope, so please no slander in the comments 😎

Path of Exile 2 announcement trailer. Looks really fun! Apparently it's just an expansions for the current game, like it's not a whole new game with a whole new engine? I tried to post this before but it bugged out for some reason.

Played on PC for 20 hours. A fun game to play with friends but the first 3 acts are just too easy and then I lost interest

This looks really amazing. I'm looking forward to returning to the land of the exiles and building a totally different character. I still have to write a gushing review of this game, unbelievable that it's free-to-play. It's the only f2p game I've ever tried which hasn't been hot garbage.

For a free game this is great. I'm finding it very compelling and a little addictive. The voice acting is good. The Graphics and sound equally good.

For a free game this is great. I'm finding it very compelling and a little addictive. The voice acting is good. The Graphics and sound equally good. I'm playing as a witch and it's so much fun raising the dead and a bunch of skeletons to fight for you. I've only been playing for 5 hours but have experienced so much and have some ace powers. The only thing is that these games are too big to complete I simply don't have hundreds of hours to spare. So will have to call it a day at some point.
