Path of Exile is Coming to Xbox One!

I just can't imagine anyone with a controller trying to 6 link something or craft or using skills which need a bit of precision. How are they supposed to trade? Have a laptop nearby to browse poe.trade? No wonder the game is getting easier from patch to patch if you need to optimize for the average console joe. Meanwhile we still have issues with trading, instances where you can't connect anymore, lag and fps spikes etc etc. I wished they would adress the issues the current playerbase had for so long instead of doing a console port.

Chris : We intend to follow the same content and league release schedule on both the Xbox One and PC versions of Path of Exile.

Can you just imagine an XBOX gamer understand a game like PoE in his globality ? Most of them cannot.
So the game will be easier and more simple as fuck. Obviously.

It will be interesting to see how this game will sink now.
And I just bough the BreachLord Supporter Pack. I feel like I just bough the BitchLord Supporter Pack.

No deception. Just a project under wraps until now. Hell, would you rather Chris use your money to buy himself personal luxuries, or would you rather see it invested back into the company in a new way that still benefits the PC-based community?

Rofl.. because only potatoes play xbox. They'll never understand such an advanced game. GTFO

Herd mentality from reddit is strong in this one , you saw a post on reddit from some1 crying and you believe instantly what was said for the sake of mindless believing , you are a sheep . Only good things will come from xbox release . More money , more players for ggg = expanding team, faster development time , more intresting tech in the future , and with the xbox release probably a trading system for both platforms , i can't see trading on xbox without that.

Everybody lies.

I wanted to see improvements that have been asked for ages on the PC version. Stop trying to bend the fact that we funded a game some of us can't even play. Again: UNWILLINGLY and UNKNOWINGLY.

If that's fine with you, OK man. I get it. But I'm on the other side. Waiting for certain improvements for ages, thinking they were working hard on it. But this is what we get. A PORT.

Does this mean that PC may get controller support as well if xbox one will get it?

Actually, the herd mentality is that everything is going to be fine. Those who are not happy are being downvoted to hell (including me). You are optimistic about the port:

More money => more expenses too
More players => that's actually cool, fine
faster development time => your optimism, since there will be adjustments needed excelusevely for one or the other version, it could take more time
more interesting tech => true, let's play POE with the kinectic or a car's wheel
trading system => your optimism too. Here I think they will further mess with older players, those who bought premium tabs just for the sake of trading.
