Despite the longer gap between reveal livestream and release, I gotta say the amount and consistency of teasers leading up to release has been really impressive. Friday can't come quick enough though๐
Path of Exile 2: Return of the Ancients and the Runes of Aldur League are just two days away! Watch this video to learn more about the Kalguuran Gems, which unleash devastating power or allow you to block hits.
@DarthMicroT Excellent interview, could listen to Mark and Jonathan talk for hours, their passion for the game and making it the best it can be is clear
@rbarbosatoro@TalkativeTri Don't get me wrong, I think the game is already great and I have no doubt they'll continue to improve it. This is just one area that I don't understand. It doesn't have to be like PoE1, but I don't think runes (at least in their current state) are the answer.
Thinking of my animal crossing villagers wandering aimlessly through knee high weeds, cockroaches scuttling around my abandoned home, Tom Nook clueless as to when my loan will be repaid, all while I fulfil my Bulbasaurโs every whim.
@TalkativeTri I'm helplessly addicted, especially this league. Took some time off for the holidays and I'm already well over 100 hours played, and don't see myself stopping anytime soon.
@dukeofdolma@DarthMicroT Sure, but what I'm saying is I think 9 times out of 10 the type of person that's upset or struggling with the economy is not the type of person that would get enjoyment from starting over and playing SSF.
@TalkativeTri I'd love to see an update to the Vaal Ruins though. I was excited when it was first revealed - cool concept, but in late game it just doesn't feel worth the time and effort. In early campaign however, it felt great and always worth doing. It just needs some adjustments.
@TalkativeTri I find myself skipping the new league mechanic entirely, but druid combined with minor changes to endgame and abyss going core/having it's own tree are keeping me happy. I've always enjoyed the PoE2 endgame grind though, personally, despite its flaws.
