Path of Exile is an INCREDIBLE game, even if it is heavily inspired by Diablo 2. The game itself, I cannot play due to the awful stat of the minimap. I have bad bad vision, and cannot see dark things very well. But, I also recognize that PoE is in closed beta, and I KNOW it will ONLY get better! I liked TL2's minimap, for the reason that it works visually. As for vlad's post, I can't tell if you were being sincere, but if you were... thanks.
Honestly speaking, people need to forget about all this cheating nonsense, and quit worrying about whether or not people are doing it in TL2 and just play the game. I only care about cheating, if someone starts messing with my characters, to be honest. I prefer to not restrict anyone's play-style.
I'll admit, I have used the console, but only to summon respec potions. When someone adds the capability to the shop keepers, I'll likely disable the console. Why? Because I want the most optimum build as I can possibly get.
The map is pretty much like that of D2, didn't you like that as well? Just curious, if there is something different in PoE's minimap that people dislikes, which I'm not aware of.

I hated it. It didn't work for Diablo 2, and it sure doesn't work with this game. It is ugly, and poorly designed. But, at the same time, I recognize that GGG is a small company. I just hope that they don't leave the minimap the way it is. I'd like to see some genuine improvement made to it.

But why? I think it's pretty handy, and you can have it on while running around it doesn't block the view. "It is ugly, and poorly designed" seems very subjective. I just don't understand why you say it didn't work for D2, I had no problems.

I think he is talking about that you can't see wery good what is where on the minimap (you can not see where are the passages, especially in some dungeons), and I must agree with him, as devs already know, and said that they will improve it.

Improvement is always great - I just got the impression, that he didn't like "that kind" of map.

I like the "idea", but I can't see it very well and it IS ugly. I can hardly see anything at all, even when messing with the transparency settings. But, I guess gamers with bad vision don't really count, do they devs? It really bothers me, that game designers are more conscious about getting PVP working, then taking the time to fix the minimap. Game developers in a whole do not really care about gamers with bad vision, and it continues to annoy me.
Torchlight 2 was the one game, where they gave you "some" impression, that they care. Don't get me wrong, that mouse is STILL too small, especially at the resolution people tend to run games at these days. It just seems to me, that when they began to create this game, that Diablo 2 was the only thing on their brains.
And as I've always said, PVPers have teeny tiny brains and are incapable of making complex decisions. It sounds as though I was right on the mark, when they chose to fix PVP over making the minimap more helpful visually.
