Many, many diamond uniques in the works...;)

I know at least one of them is a map.

Back on topic: I will be curious to see if Kripp supports PoE beyond his 'job' of covering it. Admired the hell out of Notch becoming a Diamond. That was great. Whatever money Kripp has made for GGG, even a basic kiwi out of his own pocket would mean more in my eyes.

I think he could do it to get the extra stash tabs. I don't think he would pay for anything else, he focus on being the best, not showing off. At least that's the image I have got of him. He could surprise :P

I liked vanilla-krip better, before the fanbase started getting to his head. He reminds me of athene now

Really? - That's not at all how I think of him. Obviously he can't talk with the community as the chat gets spammed with messages. But I haven't seen anything stupid like Athene - Kripp takes it serious.

Its not how he takes the stream, but having the huge fan base that he does, he is slowly adopting a more "elitist" and less congenial tone with gamers. He's going from simpyl someone who enjoyed talking and theorycrafting, to someone who wants to prove that hes the "best" at gaming, and his attitude has shifted from theorycrafting for enjoyment, to theorycrafting for recognition.

If you were to ask me, who I liked more, athene or krip? I would likely say athene, simply because the elitist asshole persona he uses on stream is an act, and he really is a nice guy. Krip is starting in the direction of being the opposite.

I'm a track and field coach so I related and love the "I'm the best" attitude. I know it rubs many people the wrong way but no one playing a pro sport doesn't think they are the best (or were at one point before being humbled from being around the best). What I respect about him is while he is becoming an elitist (I agree) he does take the steps necessary towards being the greatest. He seems to get very little advice from other good players, figures out most of the stuff on his own then when he does get advice (like his first 3hr race) he improves greatly upon it. I mean his 2nd race he broke the record.

If he was lazy, thought he was the best but really just ripped off other people's ideas and wasn't very good. I'd call him a piece of shit but he's proven himself and until he starts getting lazy I respect him alot as a gamer.

And this is relevant how ?

Must admit i would rather play the game than watch someone else play and stream but each to their own i guess.

Thanks..

No Really Thank you for letting us know.

From personal prefernce I have two monitors and I often like to throw up a livestream of games that I am currently playing / are interested in on the second screen while gaming. Sometimes just for some white noise when I don't feel like music.

One thing that Path of Exile lacks are a variety of good streamers. I know some people hate / dislike kripp but I think hes a cool guy.

Hopefully the amount of "quality" streamers for Path of Exile will change once OB goes live. We need more streamers like devmoon and Krip.

Yes, another streamer I liked to watch was Xendren. Hope he can get set up soon so I can tune in again.

Another good streamer I like to watch/listen to other than Kripp is EnemyEX, he is on during the day and sometimes night time and he likes for his viewers to actually play in his group in game.
