POE 2 early access paywall

This is funny. It comes from someone that has bought (at least) x3 $60 bucks Supporter Packs, and a $160 bucks one.

anyway, the real closed beta that ask people to sign NDA, it does not have paywall.

That step is behind us. Now it is time for wider public but not for all. Hence pay for access.

Its only logical. You want to participate? U pay. U dont? U wait for full release or OPEN beta, like with PoE.

But you want to charge us for beta-testing your product during early access?..

Did you guys think this through?

If i remember correctly we had to pay access for poe too which is fine

I'm excited for Early Access. Game is going to be sweet!

The released game is free.

In game purchase is not neccessary.

Its only MTX.

GGG did an amazing job with tons of content.

Next week I get new amazing MTX and I will regret nothing.

Keep going GGG.

Poe 1 did it. I'd say given that it gives equal currency to the money you get for the key or pack you get, it's not really a terrible way to do it. It's effectively the same as if you paid for currency to buy stash/cosmetics in the shop just with added benefit of early access.

Yes and no. I DM'd or emailed GGG and I got a DM from Chris with a key back then. Along with another to give to a friend. That was before capitalism took hold.
