And of course Else is going to win... its basically same as What brand of car you drive [ ] Toyota [ ] Everything Else Some people can be so clueless. The real hardcore PoE players and the elites sit in town and zoning in and out of their hideouts trading items. Noobs that don't know how to play PoE correctly, kill monsters for items. It's pure fact, it will never change. Welcome to PoE.	Posted by Pewzor on Apr 23, 2015, 11:33:32 AM Quote this Post

I suspect forum users, as in, those who might vote, are also more likely to watch streamers and engage in other forms of social media. Pretty sure they represent a pretty small portion of the total userbase, though. Seems a skewed sample, so I'm not sure one should read into the poll too much. No. Calm down. Learn to enjoy losing.

I knew about the game long before I knew about Kripp, since I wanted something other than diablo series at that time, like 4 years ago. Would poe be unknown to others? That I cannot answer.

I think mine was a combination of TotalBiscuit, exposure on Reddit, and the release of the Steam client. I actually knew about the game for a long time before I started playing, but I both wasn't in the mood for an ARPG at the time and the skill tree complexity was a bit offputting at first.

LOL Anyway, I learned of PoE from Flux, whom Chris and his two amigos way back when sought out to come by GGG's hotel room to check out this new game, which the server was a laptop. Again, LOL. You have come a long way GGG. Kripp, I would have never known about if it weren't for PoE.

At that time, Flux was one of the guys at incgamers (the old dii.net), a site dedicated to diablo2. Same way i got here, flux was the news bringer back then ;)	Posted by Jurge on Apr 23, 2015, 1:46:39 PM Quote this Post
Reverse for me. Never would have heard about Kripparrian if it weren't for PoE.	Posted by Khisanth on Apr 23, 2015, 1:48:32 PM Quote this Post
