PoE is so uninteresting there's nothing to say about it?

Instead of promoting this negative attitude, the beta members and mods should promote the game, but it seems there's really nothing to say.

And people bashing D3 are equally clueless about it, they're just repeating usual rants like good sheeps... but they don't even know the game.

Well, both games it seems...


The thing is that you are one of the members here that only is talking about d3. The only thing your doing on the forum is trying to different d3 from trolls. Most of all of your posts are in diablo threads. Look around, if you can't see that people talk about PoE, and give good and bad feedback.

Why should I if you want to talk about the game with gay graphics, dumbed down console gameplay you know there is a D3 forum with one of the most arrogant CMs ever known as Bashiok so if you want to praise that game, why hang out at a PoE forum?

You are either a viral marketer or just a D3 troll 90 % of your postings are about D3 so it doesn't look like you are interested in PoE at all.

People here are just sick of hearing about D3 this is PoE and I want to talk read about that game not a game made by greedy shareholders and developed by the same team which made the easiest game ever.

ps: No matter which game/forum people are joining these days you can be sure there will be some Blizzardfanboyss talking about a Blizzardgame and then freakout if people don't disagree with them.

...This isn't even about D3 or PoE anymore. It's about people not bothering to try to be balanced, even-tempered and congenial.

*ON BOTH SIDES.*

It was nice while it lasted.
Account sharing/boosting is a bannable offence. No ifs, ands, or buts. No exceptions. Not even for billionaires.

Post this sentiment publicly and see how long it lasts here.

Learn to read then, that's what I was talking about, people should talk about PoE instead of bashing D3.

As for being not interested anymore, you're right, I'm not playing it since a few weeks (I guess I'll leave the board again because it's pointless). I think I played the game for 100 hours or something like that, and it was fun. But then I read you guys on the forums and completely spoil my fun by spouting some nonsense about D3. PoE isn't perfect and it's easy to critize the game, but I'd much rather let a chance to GGG to improve the game than bashing it.

It just saddens me for GGG to have a shitty community like this, this game doesn't deserve this.

So yeah, enjoy your circlejerk while it lasts, I just hope it won't cause the game to fail hard because blind fanboys can't have objective thoughts about this game.

And read again all the post about D3 (like yours), "D3 iz gay, itz for baby consol gamerz", yeah... ridiculous...
PoE forums ignore list script:
http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/162657

0.4: added "ignore" button. ignore list is now saved locally.
There will be room for for PoE and D3...many people just seem to think they can only pick one.

I've played a decent "WoW clone" called Allods and even though it had so many similarities with WoW, its story and game-play gave it an unique element that was really different that WoW.

From what I've seen, what draws me to PoE that D3 doesn't have is the finding/lvling quasi-FFVII materia gem system and the quasi-FFX sphere grid passive tree. The story in this game also has much potential.

I can't say I'm going to be playing both, but you never know.

I guess to be more on topic, people should let D3 be D3 and PoE be PoE.

I read all pages and yet I stand by my stance. The only thing these two games are having in common is the genre "hack and slay" other than that they are extremely different.

From soneone who has played the predecessor ad nauseum, so I do exactly know what I want and what not. I'm sorry but the graphics are looking extremely gay (too colorful, washed up and the tiersets remind me of PowerRangers) on top of that dumbe down skilltrees, no death penalty and free respec all the time. You might like that kind of stuff fine, for me its not the game I've hoped for when they announced it. Oh and I forget auctionhou$e plus online requirement just so Blizzard 2 can spy your PC and create a profile of you selling it to third parties.

All the changes they've made scream console port and dumbed down thats my PoV and I'm entitled to it you can disagree thats fine but my point is:

These kind of threads should get deleted or either be moved to the offtopic section for the simple fact, that Blizzard 2 (this is not the company who made all the great games naymore), doesn't allow discussion about other games on their forums.

-WAYYYY more skills and variants than Diablo 2, or POE, ever had.

-Implying POE does have a death penalty, given that D3 has the same penalty that POE does.

-POE also has an online requirement, and in D3's case the main purpose is to prevent piracy / hacking.

-The auction house was there in diablo 2, and will be there in POE.

-How do the changes scream console port? You can now use MORE abilities at the same time, and skilltrees are just as feasible on consoles as they are on pcs.
Not to mension that the game now has way more specific spot-click abilities than diablo 2 ever did, which is very un-console-friendly.

I also think it's fair that blizzard removes those kind of threads, as the diablo forums are to discuss diablo, not any other game.

Exactly and so its fair for GGG removing threads about D3, as the Path of Exile forums are to dicuss Path of Exile, not any other game.

Sure, if GGG was in a forum competition with Blizzard. GGG doesn't have to mimick everything Blizzard's doing.

It's also fair to let people speak their minds, isn't it? Comparing PoE to D3 is discussing PoE. Therefore, it's relevant. No one is asking for PoE vs. Torchlight threads to be moved.

If the thread is solely about Diablo, then it's not relevant. If it's still about PoE, it's still relevant.

I'm obviously glad they don't mimick Blizzard 2 otherwise doubt my interest would be that high in this game but:

As you are aware big companies have viral marketers and I fear with allowing things like that, the box of pandorra is open for such things thats all.
