I love the foot prints. The main reason is if Razor supports GGG then I support them. Why would you not want to support the supporter of GGG. This is a perfect opportunity for anyone that cant afford to buy micro transactions or supporters pack to 1)get free shit and 2)support GGG
No matter if you like Razor or not you should support any cause that promotes GGG, IF, you truly love the game.
Thanks for the feetprints homies

like..its free =D

you have to sign up with them I believe (create an account) therefore wasting time and possibly giving them some information about yourself... free? I don't think so

Concept of 'free' is so augmented these days its terrifying.

Can't have a free in-game effect without conspiracy theorists and ungrateful people either.

email, screen name, gg
thats all it took so you can rest your paranoidness on this.

You'll only see it as a in-game ad if you knew the logo, and let's be fair here: it is not an ad. It's not texts or pictures of products and telling you to buy it. You can just think of it as a bunch of snakes of something, in a triangle shape.
The razar logo is pretty decent/cool and the footprints also fade away rather fast.

It's not an ad? Are you blind?

One of the most effective forms of marketing for a company is having a logo, why do you think that is?

In before GGG decide to partner with Apple and we see Apple logo's and NPC's talking about it.


This is not about the quality of Razer products, don't get me wrong they're good. But for GGG to put their logo in game is just appalling. How on earth do you explain that in lore without it sounding stupid? Great way to destroy any immersion there ever was for a few bucks GGG.

I don't like them but hey, more $$$ to GGG so file mine under I don't care

How do you explain most of the microtransactions, lore-wise? Always walking around with gory footprints/sparkly footprints/little butterflies flying around your sword/glowing piece of paper in front of your face/horns/etc?

like them. Encourages me to talk and trade with people - success formula for Path of Exile's long term goals.

its only a footprint wth

I did not denied that company logos are a form of a ad, but I clearly state what requirement are needed to be really a ad. Like so many other shit you see everywhere.
I even personally stated(in a way) that it's design and colours are not that horrible looking in the game. And if needed, they can be changed in the future, eg. less glow/brighter or fade away faster.

Why don't people carefuly and properly read Chris's post? Here's the reddit response in case people haven't seen it: http://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/1lc1b6/razer_comms_x_path_of_exile_promo/cbxyb7w

People who thinks GGG will end up partnering with common medium or large commercial companies, are mostly just trolls, haters. I mean in the first place, why would those companies want to partner with a indie video game developer, that they never probably ever heard of? And how much deposit/income will they even make back anyway? Probably nothing, so it will never happen anyway.
So everyone, please take a chill pill.

EDIT: Chris & GGG did not state that this will be the first of many partnerships, and if it took the game this long to start having partnerships, then you can obviously see that Chris & Co. are being very careful with this!

EDIT EDIT: Looking at Fluffhead's edit below, I should also state that I'm not a fan of Razar products and have never even used one of theirs, FYI.

Well said.

Razer sells trash that people eat up when they can get much better gaming peripherals other places. I don't really like this and would have never expected GGG to add something like this.

lol.

EDIT: Ha, after reading this thread and the announcement thread, people around here really do love their razer products. Funny stuff.
