General Discussion - So will the casual Xbox one player get godlike gear on day 2 like d3? - Forum

Maybe it doesnt bother you but it bothers enough people to have a discussion. Im bothered because why play the game with a grindfest algorithm when i can have better gear in a fraction of the time investment? Play that version then, no one gives a fuck	Posted by RandallPOE on Jan 19, 2017, 7:33:00 PM Quote this Post

Pretty much. Since they want playerbase on xbox they will have to cater to that crowd.	Posted by Zhatan on Jan 19, 2017, 8:16:42 PM Quote this Post

They can't balance one game on one platform, how are they going to balance two games on two platforms? I wonder how much of this was encouraged at the Board level by other (non GGG employee) shareholders and how much is driven by Chris' (rightful) desire to monetise PoE. Of course it must be Chris' decision ultimately, but I'd love to have seen the Board pitch for the move. P.

I want to see how closely the console version fits the "game we want to play" mantra. There's a lot about PoE that simply won't fly in that market. How much will the PC version (and players) be relied on as guinea pigs for the console? Or will the games be so different that they will nearly be of different genres?

if the game is offline, and the saves are as easily hacked as D3 files are - then people will indeed hack the hell out of this game, and be trying to from day 1. the thing is, at this moment, no one has said whether or not the game will be available offline, since playing a "always on" game on a console is something consoles tend to shy away from. so its a double edge sword, if they go offline, then the game will be hacked to hell, if they maintain the online only gameplay then your potential audience is lower.

They might introduce a market place/ auction house/ hall of bidding/ call it what you like. If this quote (quoted in the "Why were we not told" thread) is real: " Chris wrote: When we started our Xbox One project in 2015, we looked at how other online game communities reacted to the announcement of a console version of those games. While many players were excited, some were disappointed and had a few fears: The fear that development resources would be spent on a version of the game that didn't directly benefit that player. The fear that the PC version would be modified to become more similar to the new console version. After we saw other communities reacting like this, we internally pledged to make sure that our development of the console version of Path of Exile took these concerns into account. We hired new team members specifically for the the console project. They were directly responsible for the massive improvements to frame rate, client load times, memory use, as well as the introduction of the 64-bit client, DirectX 11 renderer and new audio system. These changes were immediately released to the PC version as soon as they were available. Even if you're not a console gamer, this project improved the game for you. They might as well use the same reasoning for an AH, i.e. they know many people are concerned about an AH so they "internally pledged to make sure that our development of the auction house for Path of Exile took these concerns into account."
