It's disappointing because they were expecting to have more ready for Early Access on November 15th as Jonathan stated he wanted the whole campaign to be available and thus I wanted it as well.

"

As for Path of Exile 1 the game was just starting so of course I didn't wait, I knew nothing of the game when I first started playing it in 2013 and nobody knew there was even going to be more to the game beyond Act 3 at the time.

Ah, I see, I didn't really follow the announcements about PoE2, or paid attention about how many acts were planned... (since, as we saw, things can change anyway)

"

The bright side is the Early Access is going to be running for a lot longer then the Oriath Beta did so I don't mind just waiting to jump in when all 6 acts are available. I don't want to experience endgame before completing a campaign, just ruins the experience imo.
It was different for Fall of Oriath Beta we already knew everything about the endgame since not much changed from the expansion aside from adding more campaign, which I did still wait for before playing the Oriath beta as well despite knowing already what the endgame was like, simply because I didn't want to see potentially new bosses, monsters or items in the endgame that I hadn't yet seen in the campaign. I also didn't play the endgame in the beta I waited until its official release, only completed what I could in the Oriath Beta campaign wise then stopped.

It's the same thing here with Path of Exile II, I don't want to play the first 3 acts then experience endgame and potentially see things that I would of otherwise seen in the campaign first therefor am going to wait till I can complete the campaign which they're saying all 6 Acts will be available later on in the Early Access.
I mean why would I want to play maps and possibly fight a mini boss from Act 4-6 before encountering that boss in the campaign

I see how that would be annoying...
I mean, like you did for FoO, you could also just restart once you've beat the campaign, lots of classes to try out !
Also, wouldn't they, for the same reason, avoid putting in these monsters in the endgame until the corresponding acts are released ? (Maybe a couple to keep the hype up ??)
And I guess specifically bosses, because I presume that those Settlers of Kalguur-exclusive monsters we have to fight on the ore veins in PoE1 are straight from PoE2 - and it's not like you avoided this league because of this ?

LET IT BEGIN! LET! IT! BEGIN!

Thanks !!

IMO they are going to have to be really careful with this ‘lifetime’ spending to get in for free.
They put it too high and honestly I will just say nah and wait for public and never spend on mtx again ever.
They put it too low and everyone is gonna pile in and the people who have invested heavily will be angry.
Fine edge of a knife that one.

Honestly they’d be better off to have no free entry for lifetime spending threshold and just put a 20$ pack which is nothing more than a key for early access and a leveling unique akin to the old race ones (20 movement speed boots or something useful enough to use every league but tame enough to not have the community shout pay to win). Hell just pick a world known charity (cancer research for example) make a cloak cosmetic mtx that’s in their colours and give half the revenue from selling early access keys to that charity….good access route for us, good PR for them.

I am still expecting the early access to be the full ‘standard league’ game, less a few old league mechanics they are still fine tuning. What’s the point of an ‘open (ish) beta’ that tests half the campaign, none of the mapping etc? Answer is it would be pointless to know act1-3 are ok and have no clue if 4-6 work under pressure or how to balance the endgame unless we are ‘all’ there ‘abusing’ mechanics they didn’t think of.
All in the whole game or why bother anything public at all (I understand closed beta being less, there are NDAs etc and limited access to protect the IP but once it public you need to flood test it)

EDIT - Just manually added up all spent MTX points (does not matter if they were flat point packs or supporter packs they work out the same price near as damn it) and I have spent 9685 points and have 15 left over, that is 970 US dollars worth, I had better damned well get a lifetime key lol.

So hyped for this! Thanks!

This can't come soon enough! My PoE2 info IV has run dry.

almost time !

Vamos nessa BR

Animadissimo e ansioso demais
