Pay to play

[Dabagonsmith]

No mention of this in all their marketing up until this point just a few days before it comes out. All their marketing has been about it being free to play just like the original, but now people have to wait 6 months to a year to actually play.

I am afraid that poe2 will never be free to play. I can't help but wonder, why it says "Path of Exile 2 Early Access or Path of Exile 2 Key" in the description of the supporter packs.

get your brain checked OP

Pretty sure 300 coins is worth 30 bucks. Dunno why people are crying about having to pay, you getting the money back with in game currency to spend on stash tabs or whatever.

[wololo]

Either obvious bait thread or op cant read, the announcement was there like… year ago

Yes. Early access is paid, full release isn't.
You understood correctly, make your choice.

OP, people here are willing to pay to consume their favorite entertainment as early as possible (only they call it "supporting of the developer"), don't forget also that these people have spent thousands of dollars on cosmetics for POE and can't wait to pay to show them off in a different setting (POE2). There's also a promising "Chance based in-game purchases" opportunity to spend even more money via gambling. So, OP, don't expect to get understanding or sympathy here.

Sounds like a you problem. Go think it over while waiting a year.

Dude what the hell? Hahaha what do you think happened with the Path of Exile 1 14 years ago ? As far as I remember early access was paid also. 30 euro for this is a steal. or would you rather play something like D4 for what is it 70 ? and each DLC another 60 ?

It's pay to be a lab rat, that 6 months will be the no life rats finding broken builds and them getting balanced. Also buying an EA pack gives the same value in the cosmetic cash.

Hello fellow no life rat
