Changes to Path of Exile's Account System

First change ever made I hate. 2816. Cool. So what little xbox playing jackass gets 0001?

What I hate about this is I didn't get a chance to select it. I picked my name 12 years ago. I liked it. I wanted to keep it. I don't like 2816. This irks me way more then it should. I hope we can change it one day.

I don't think it's about the number even, if it's 0001, or 3123. I think the thing I'm finding unsettling here is I didn't pick it. Give me a Orb of Discriminator and let me shuffle around my own.

I will control it. It's my name.

Good question....

why couldnt we atleast choose our numbers?

i agree atleast let us change the number to what we like.

i hate the number after mine also.

I linked my steam account to my main account. They merged into two sub accounts, if I buy poe2 through steam, will I be able to play it on the main account?

I have a PS4 account, maybe a future PS5 in 2 years maybe. But I have my gaming laptop. I have stash tabs and MTX on my PS4 account. Can I add these to my PC account or Sony log on from PC using Steam, and can i go back & forth between my PS4 account unlocks when playing on my PC, and then to PS5 whenever I get that?

Brother, how the f did i get that cool of a number-tag, praised be le Toucan

So as of now, I can simply buy the new supporter packs from the PoE website and they will be synced and available with my account linked to Xbox?

Yo I got a somewhat cool number.

People keep responding “it’s just Sony”. Cool got that part.

This next part is solely on GGG though ——


The simple (yes probably time consuming) fix for PlayStation users wishing to merge micro transactions OVER to PC - is just support / GGG unlocking those MTX for their pc accounts.


GGG can prove the point by giving players who want to play on PC that backlog of mtx and tabs they purchased on ps4



Seems unrealistic since a larger player base will now be missing out trying to merge their accounts vs allowing Xbox , which statistically has a much smaller user base and sold nowhere near the amount of PlayStations globally.

I own pc ,ps4/5 , Xbox , and steam deck. It seems like there is a solution that I hope is pursued even if it doesn’t happen out the gate…


Cross platform / progression seemed cool at first but these limitations and exclusions have left it bitter.
