Check out the latest Path of Exile 2 update – The Dawn of the Hunt!:  https://bit.ly/POE2_Hunt_evanf1997

The year is 2013, you’re sitting at home, the last of us just came out, bioshock infinite came out, an indie game called GRAND THEFT AUTO 5 CAME OUT.. and so did a little crowd funded company and game called Path of Exile! Over the years this game would keep on improving and improving to the point that now the second game has been in early access and has smashed all kinds of feats and broken sales metrics nobody thought possible! So with all of that information.. The elephant in the room pokes its trunk.. how would someone who only played Destiny and now warframe feel about an ARPG? A somewhat adjacent experience, but I have had little to no experience with this genre of game other than knowing that loot has rarity and that builds are important.. Yeah i have no other place to even begin with a point of my personal experience! So when I say that I got to play Path of Exile 2 thanks to the folks at Grinding Gear Games and loved my time with it.. Well you’ll just have to believe me here! 

Path of Exile 2 is like what I imagined the golden ages ARPGs were like when my brother and his friends would talk about them! A heavy, rewarding, and challenging experience that doesn’t do too much hand-holding and makes me delve into the burrows of sweat buried beneath my finest gaming chair! A constant challenge that keeps building on itself and that absurd realization that not even 100 hours into the game you’d still be not understanding the depth that the game has to offer! That is a scary sentence, but I don’t want it to sound like climbing mount everest since the community is unbelievably helpful and the game is fun even in its earliest stages!  The folks at Grinding Gear Games have had a really Path of Exile-centric history, taking it to heart! Founded in 2006 in Auckland, New Zealand. GGG developed Path of Exile, which was released on 23 October 2013. During the open beta, from 23 January 2013 to release, more than 46,000 people participated. GGG was a crowd-funded company with Path of Exile, allowing users to pre-purchase in-game microtransactions ahead of the game's launch date. In only 6 days, GGG was able to raise over $245,000.
