Why does Fextralife have Path of Exile 2 already?

How many other "game reporters" have access to the game before release?

When the embargo is released on December 6th there will be full build guides then???

This is really disappointing....

Why does it matter if there are a million videos with every guide imaginable the minute the embargo is lifted?

You do not have to watch the videos.

It will not affect your gameplay or how immersive you make the game unless you let it

high quality guides from fextralife

Was watching Raxxanterax’s livestream today and while watching a POE2 video a streamer posted, he noticed a player in the game was level 67. Hopefully that was a developer.

Doubled down with a guide lol. Didn't think I'd be losing hype the week of EA release.

If the fact that a random publisher of information, like them or not, had the ability to publisher information that you made the decision to go to and read/react to lowers your hype for a game I honestly do not think you were hyped in the first place.

Do not watch streamers, do not click on YouTube videos, do not go to third party sites and involve yourself with content and then get mad that you ingested that content.

It is the age of the internet, you cannot keep information secret for ever. If it wasnt Fextralife it would have been someone else. I bet when that video was posted GGG sent mass communications to all the different publishers (which I am sure there are probably hundreds) who have early-early access making their release schedule for information clear.

The only reason why this is such a big deal is because it was Fextralife.

It seems everyone hates Fextralife just because they're very popular. If they were a niche content creator nobody would care. Kind of embarrassing.

Why does ANYONE have a review copy?

The game is going into Early Access. It's a work in progress. The main game launch might not be for another 6 months.

Why send out review copy for an unfinished game?

Marketing

Welp....the info is out now, Fubgun is currently live streaming and getting gem info from Fextralife's wiki (I assume he went the VIP route because their current wiki outside VIP is just....well don't open it at work)
