Why Is This Game Named POE, If Edgar Isn't In It?

I've looked real hard and I can't find Edgar Allan Poe anywhere, or his writings.

I must be missing something.

I'll try again now.

DON'T SPOIL IT FOR ME IF YOU KNOW WHERE HE IS !!!!!!!!!!

Small problem, its name isnt Poe...
It's PoE, 5/7
Second-class poe gamer
My real name is actually Edgars
Indeed, they could definitely use some of Poe's work in the lore of PoE:

But evil things, in robes of sorrow,
Assailed the monarch's high estate.
Ah, let us mourn!- for never morrow
Shall dawn upon him desolate!
And round about his home the glory
That blushed and bloomed,
Is but a dim-remembered story
Of the old time entombed.

And travellers, now, within that valley,
Through the red-litten windows see
Vast forms, that move fantastically
To a discordant melody,
While, like a ghastly rapid river,
Through the pale door
A hideous throng rush out forever
And laugh- but smile no more.

I've heard a few devs pronounce it 'Poe' over the years. Lazy buggers. Pee-Oh-Wee. Is it THAT hard to say?

Maybe with a Kiwi accent.


Ummmm, "Pee-Oh-Wee" ?

Is that a bad joke? This game isn't named after Pee-Oh-Wee's Big Adventure.

It's POE for a reason.

Edgar Allan Poe.

I could be wrong but I doubt it.

Pee-Oh-Wee's Big Adventure was a good movie though.

Maybe you're foreign and just can't read english right.

Australian making fun of accent.

So, who is going to volunteer for adding Edgar to the Hall of Grandmasters, a Raven Raging Spirit Arcane Tome Totem spamming Templar?
