How did you discover Path of Exile

Interesting to watch this again :)
Especially the part when Kripp's talking about the minimap :P
"I'm programmed to say something that is kind and uplifting at this point, but there is apparently an error that is working in my favor."
Like >90% of people, I found it through kripp. <3
i use a secret account because i am a politician that doesnt want the NSA to know i play poe.
some times ago i have played a lot in WOT (clan wars), and someday my cousin told me about POE - game similar to diablo
i thougth, wow ... another diablo clone ... but i have downloaded and started (just for fun) to play and ... now this this the only game i play

my first POEvid "Hybrid Wander and Atziri fight" http://youtu.be/0e-ffI2cOfY
Doesn't matter. What matters is I *did* discover it.
Warhammer 40k Inquisitor: where shotgunning is not only not nerfed, it is deeply encouraged.

Dogma > Souls, but they're masterworks all. You can't go wrong.

I was right about PoE2 needing to be a separate, new game. It was really obvious.
I played PoE before Kripp, can I feel special now? ...

Actually I can't exactly remember how I found it, maybe by a video by TotalBiscuit, but I did in april 2012 during closed beta when Fellshrine was fun to farm and Act 2 didn't have Vaal.

Fellshrine is still fun to farm! And may it ever be so!

Since everyone's talking about The Coming of Kripp, I remember the invasion as well. Mostly I remember how much money it made GGG, but also the quiet panic it instilled in the moderators at the time.

Some glorius soul on the TitanQuest.net forum made mention of it back in Closed Beta.
I've been here ever since.
A friend of mine from Drakensang Online told me about it. I gave PoE a shot since it sounded awesome by his description. Having a bad history of over-glorified games turning out to be crap, I didn't really have much hope.. but man, was I wrong. It was as good -if not better- as he told me it would be. I was pretty much hooked from the minute I started playing. :) Great game.
It's common sense.
I got a closed beta key from a friend, and no it wasn't Kripp. I didn't even know who Kripp was at that point lol.

Anyway, my friend told me this game will be better than D3 so I gave it a try, and although I have taken a few breaks from PoE I keep coming back.

Whether PoE is actually better than D3 I can't tell, because I never bought D3, and spent the money on supporting GGG instead. What I can tell is that once I got into PoE I had no desire to even try out D3, PoE is just that good to me.

I loved both Diablo I and II but PoE was the game that made me forget all about D3, enough said.

I believe it was a ZiggyD stream over 2 years ago that I first heard of PoE and saw it's gameplay.
