Past of Exile - Early Alpha Screenshots
This is some amazing stuff! I really enjoyed the old posts that had development screenshots, as well.
Keep up the good work GGG! You inspire me to go back to school to major in CS and programming to achieve my dream of developing video games. Thank you for this amazing game, and NEVER STOP IMPROVING!!! Trust your gut.

" What does Chris's announcement have to do with the late 90's game pogs? |

I must admit I haven't played PoE for years because of various reasons although I think it's still the best aRPG on the market. Yet, I follow PoE news routinely. When I saw those screenshots, all those memories came back to life again.
Here's a fun fact. There had been a sound volume bug that was introduced in 0.8.1 (0.8.0 was okay). The funny thing is I was the only one cared about the bug that I complained to Chris about it on the msn all the time although nobody besides me cared about it :D Considerable game code had to be rewritten to fix that so it stayed there for a couple years. It was fixed around the release of Dominus patch I guess. I haven't played lately but I watch streams and videos and the game seems miles better than the alpha versions. The only thing I didn't like so much is the pace and the scale and variety of the particle effects. It seems like it hurt PoE's old Diablo 1.5 feel. He who fights with monsters
might take care lest he thereby become a monster. |

Man this brings back some memories! I still alpha fondly ... man the maps were brutal back then!!! I remember the first time I completed one (without the kill-everything cheat that was enabled then, lol). I was happy as!
EDIT: actually they were chaos things weren't they, and easy to start but yes so brutal ... hmm. Last edited by Wuffell#4587 on Jan 3, 2016, 11:32:17 PM

Man, Those blue backgrounds on the item display area's are totally reminiscent of Diablo 2... They should totally bring those back.

Brings back some memories of closed beta.
I wonder, if you guys have thought about making each waypoint look different? Be nice if each one represented the area better. I AM ERROR

I just remember how washed out all the colors used to be way back.

I got discontented on D3 so I searched ones similar. found grim dawn and this. grim dawn needs you to pay up for early access this one is free. I just graduated and dont have cc or spare $ that time. so I got to play this on cb. I think piety is the last act boss that time. since Im wondering why scepter of god is there but its still closed.
