General Discussion - What does Path of Exile mean to you? - Forum

To me, it's what gaming companies can do when not pressured by publisher executives and men in suits to make money instead of make a game. As someone who wants to get into the games industry, this is my eventual goal. But first, I gotta scrounge up to the guys with the money.

all jokes aside, PoE means to me as much as d1 and d2 meant to my childhood. it brings me to a land far far away, where WoW fanboys do not exist. 'An open mind is like a Fortress with it's gates unbarred and unguarded'.	Posted by hostilesinbound#1565 on Oct 20, 2013, 12:13:56 AM Quote this Post

What a short sighted answer...... Such a naivete... Are you serious? Do you have any comprehension what it takes to do what they are doing? Sure they have 3-4 million dollars but consider what they are doing. Free to play game, while asking for NON P2W donations. Have to pay for the following: Server upgrades (i.e. hardware) for the people playing and prevent lag. Developers Community service Software architects Future content I'm to tired to list more, but im sure there is more Simply put, compared to other game companies they are doing REALLY well. You should rethink your post or simply discontinue playing if you feel that strongly.

It's a great great entertainment. And its community is like a mirror, when I really took a look in it, I saw my ugly self and what changes I should make. Entertainment is entertainment, what I really seek for life will never be here. You won't have my gear.	Posted by NameIsDon#7467 on Oct 20, 2013, 3:18:10 AM Quote this Post

The whole PoE concept feels to me like an "Idea versus Money" fight. Idea wins so far. Put on your red shoes and dance the blues.	Posted by Bozon#1163 on Oct 20, 2013, 5:17:45 AM Quote this Post

It's not even about finding people to lie in forums and make profit, playing the game, and the game's atmosphere itself is enough for me to fall in love with it over and over again. I personally have never had a good airport in the real world and that is main reason to make profit of nice guys. I don't really care for it much, i made profit and that is all. Finally, to me Path of Exile is a place I can go to troll beautiful forests, or ancient temples in stunning cocaine that immerse me in the environments my character is in. My favorite place to go afk is in the Forest Encampment because of the monkeys and degen bears. Obviously the gameplay itself is awesome with the skills, support skills and passives but I just wanted to take a minute to share with the community exactly what people do here to get wealthy. /cheers Fixed Last edited by sanleon#0371 on Oct 20, 2013, 6:05:31 AM	Posted by sanleon#0371 on Oct 20, 2013, 5:49:11 AM Quote this Post
