Lumin's Path of Exile Commentary (Updated)

Hi Lumin,

Seeing how I plugged your videos in my idea thread:

http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3627

...Any chance you could take a look and comment one whether you think the core idea would enrich the gameplay based on your own experiences so far?

I haven't had any comments from Beta testers yet.

Thanks Mate.

P.s. Love the videos your commentary is pure comedy!!! "Ah Brutus... The times we've shared" LMAO

speaking of which...will you do playthroughs with other classes? you were about to answer the question, but then a weapon dropped and you forgot about that. it's totally understandable, for it was a sharktooth maul...but i would like to know anyway.

nice videos btw...my one and only subscription i ever done on youtube :)

Nice to see people make playthroughs.

"Oh no... wait? Sharktooth Maul, what are you doing here?!"

I'm split -- I'd love to see Lumin play around with other classes and builds, but I also want to see him go through on his ranger quite a ways too!

I'm really enjoying Lumin's videos. I've found an awful lot out about the way the game works from just watching them, makes me jealous, i want to play!

Each of the videos are pretty funny too (especially when Lumin stumbles accross Brutus) Lumin reminds me of a cross between Sharlto Copley from District 9, and Graham Norton, haha!

i watched all of them... nice work, but i m afraid that i know more about the game then he does, without even have a betakey xD

For me, Lumin's videos are less about information dumps and more about being immersed in the experience of exploring the game. He clearly lives on flavor, and I love that!

It really offers a unique perspective compared to people who are trying to learn as much about the systems to be able to min/max right away. Often, it's an approach that I think gets less attention than it really should. It's great just getting lost in a game.

Path of Exile - Patch 0.9.1 & Fan Art

Hello everyone! I've got a bit of a minisode here for all of you, just a quick video going over the latest patch notes and having a look at the new UI! :D

As a bonus it also features all the winners pieces from the Fan Art Competition that was held right here on the forums! ^.^

Enjoy! Next part of gameplay is coming soon, stay tuned! :)

Lumin I am wondering...do you smoke pot before you play?
I dont mind, but I noticed that you seem kinda lost when you play. You start doing something, than you get distracted, and then totaly forget about it.

For example in part 6, at 21:53 you say something like "my accuracy rating must be really high, I dont know" and then, "actually I can check, where is char screen", and then you open it for 1 sec, mobs attack you, you fight them, and continue to play, forgetting about accuracy rating.
You do things like that many times during your clips.

Just wondering...

Are you not entertained? :D

But really, nothing! I guess I just don't have a really long attention span or something like that! :P

Okay, I know that the "selling" feature isn't enabled yet, but since you have an absolutely huge stash, why don't you hold onto more stuff in your stash for when it is enabled?

Thanks for the vids btw. I'm living vicariously through you waiting for a beta invite.

I'll start collecting proper gear to sell, yeah, good point! :D

Hello there! Done! Check your post! ^.^ Thanks for the praise, I'm glad you're enjoying the videos! :)

I hope to, yes! But let's see how far I can get with the Ranger first! :)

Great to hear! That is very weird combination right there, to be sure, but it sounds good anyway! :P

And yeah, Brutus was a mighty foe indeed!

Where's the fun in knowing it all? :P

Keep em coming! Like I commented on your latest video(The patch review one) even if I can't play the game(yet, hopefully in the near future!) I can at least watch you play and enjoy your new experiences :D. I always laugh at your seemingly random comments(Like the above quoted "Ahh Brutus, the times we've shared.)

Love your videos.

Excellent!

Are you planning on participating in the short-term league competition this weekend? I would love to get your perspective on it after you participate.
