Looks like Safari is applying the com.apple.quarantine attribute to the folder because it's downloaded from the internet, which prevents the installer from working. If you do:
xattr -d com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Path\ of\ Exile/Path\ of\ Exile.app

That worked for me!

Using xattr and launching from Terminal works. Just FYI, don't include folders. .app's go right into /Applications. No directories.

Also, it's likely that you have paths hardcoded. Because if you pull the .app out of the directory, not even xattr works.
