TotalBiscuit talks about the PoE microtransactions in todays The Mailbox

Thanks for the replies and Final Fantasy kudos! I had done a little homework regarding the financing of the game. I just guess it still feels a little 'too good to be true'! Still, it does make you wonder whether the model is a sustainable one as from what I have heard of other micro transaction games is that it is very much pay to win.

Still, GGG seem very much in tune with us disenfranchised and disillusioned action rpg lot and if they can get both the product and the model right we are in for a treat. :)
