Developer video on the new skill tree

We have posted a video about some of the design considerations for the new passive skill tree.



Tasty teasers!
Closed Beta/Alpha Tester back after a 10-year hiatus.
First in the credits!
Awesome. I love how the GGG videos are totally unembellished. There's no unnecessary hype, no inflated promises.

This is almost like what a documentary on game design would be, and it--

Wait, did Qarl just call the longer paths 'highways'?! Excellent!

-- focuses on the game's most enigmatic feature, the Skilldrasil.

This is GOLD.
If I like a game, it'll either be amazing later or awful forever. There's no in-between.

I am Path of Exile's biggest whale. Period.
Love it, still, i know in some point of the game i will spent points in a wrong place and i will end up with a hybrid class.

Characters:
Jay_WillsonJr -LvL 22 Witch

While those already familiar with the skill tree will no doubt understand what is being discussed, those already inclined to be confused aren't gonna get much outta the vid.

That said, this shows a great deal of careful thought and design by the devs, and is a definite improvement. =^[.]^=

I love you, Qarl.

I am so excited after seeing the center of the tree. Truly great to put general nodes like that in the center in more abundance.

Damn it looks so much better now, but travelling will cost far more, so sad.
I think saw nodes of "+weapon elemental damage" in the middle of the skill tree, am I the only one?
Nice Video. Looking forward the test the new skilltree myself.

I'm pretty sure this wasn't the last change though. =]
