Isn't PoE's Steam description false advertisement?

No, you dont. But ofc new players dont know we used to trade with normal tabs for YEARS.

No, stash tabs are not pay to win. Im fucking sick of this bullshit. YOU DONT WIN ANYTHING by buying more stash tabs.

Im losing sanity and my brain cells every time I see thread about PoE being P2W...

But... PoE is obvious pay to win game. Make an experiment. Convince two streamers with the same skills, then ask one of them to create new account and play only with four stash tabs, while the other guy will play with all his premium stash tabs. And let's find out which one will reach the endgame faster :) Pay to win :)

Go watch the latest VOD from the community race, and tell me how many stash tabs they used. And remember, as you used "reaching end game fastest" - these are the fastest dudes out there.
Bring me some coffee and I'll bring you a smile.

Ask Raiz or pretty much any other racer how many of his tabs he uses when he is racing at first day of the league to reach "end game" as fast as possible.
Then come back. I already know the answer
DELIRIUM SHOP

Im a true HC gosu premium tabs are for scrubs and the game is totally not made to support such stuff [Removed by Support]

It is a F2P GAME! How much money did you spend to make a character and play all the content? Oh zero dollars, oh wow weird man? Oh so you have adhd-ocd and can’t experience the game with only taking certain gear and items to end game? Oh no better get better at organizing my 4 stash tabs. Or wait! I can buy these awesome looking stash tabs so I can go ballistic with items. Woohoo man that was worth the sale. Thought I had to sell the wife the kids, my new air Jordan’s just to have Poe pace of mind in game. Thanks ggg love ya!

I agree with you OP, no point in trying to discuss everything. Its free to try but it's pay to continue playing. Couldn't imagine playing this game without at least a currency tab, map tab, and an extra tab for selling items.

No different from playing a Demon with a set time and paying to continue playing. Eh but let me not type anymore before I trigger someone to exclaim how wrong I am too and why the game is 100% free to play.

I will say, I don't think the game is pay to win. If everyone paid for the few tabs that are 99.9% mandatory then everyone is technically on an equal playing field. Its the macros, scripts, bots and whatever else I missed that people use that makes the game no fair but that's not about paying to win.


You couldn't imagine playing the game without it, but it can be done if you like pain. You absolutely play this game and never pay anything for it. It would suck, if you play it a long time, but it can be done. You are in no way obligated to pay anything and still play the game. Of course it is geared towards you making people want to buy things. They have to make money. However it is not a lie., in anyway, that the game itself is free.
A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.
I wonder if those kinds of people go to forum of literally every F2P game and bitch that "this game isnt free! You have item shop with shit in it! REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!1111oneoneone"
I made a post of stuff for sale and IT WAS EDITED OUT

LMAO

And they keep all the trolling and spam rampant all around, i'm. just. speechless.

@Aynix seems a little angry that he's been called out on his falsehoods, intentional or not. He also completely ignored the fact that OP said the game was f2p but called them out for a dishonest steam description.
