Interview that kinda flew under the radar.

Said the 0.1 basically paid for PoE2 development and made a profit. And the cost seems to be under 100mil so far if I understood it correctly.

Was there speculation that it cost $100m to make? It's an ARPG not an MMO.

Well of course it made a profit, I admit to giving them $100 for access to the goddamn alpha test (and some skins I am using in my current PoE 1 build lol), plus they are probably charging half the fucking salaries to PoE 1 "continued development".

Listen, I know I have personal issues I can't get over with PoE1 being hamstrung right now, but tell me this isn't just the most punchable face. I'm taking this way too personal lol.

That blue haired faggot that was telling the German beavis to stay out of his game is magnitudes more punchable but this faggot is definitely punchable.

I mean if you run your company like shit, you can make a turd like Concord for $200m (400 if you count the money spent before Sony came in, based on quick googling).

Mark my words, spears will make warriors fun and good for end game.
Warriors have been good the issue is with maces. Hopefully they added some supports for maces that fix their issues. (I'm aware maces are great for campaign their issues come from scaling)

Spear wheel being in dex part of the tree means warriors get to continue paying a hefty travel tax just like they did for ES in 0.1.0. That is, if spears will make for a better melee gameplay than maces.

The campaign is short, it’s all about the start of the end game which wars suck and not fun and it’s entirely due to maces being shit.

Titan is one of the strongest end game ascendancies. Hulking Form is OP

You just do Hulking Form and literally anything but maces. I did a Hulking Form ES caster and it was really good. It makes the regular ES nodes give 22% each and you take the notable that recharges ES based on armor% and you fully regen all your ES in less then 2 seconds.

Maces issues come from their horrible implementation of startup animation. They solved this in poe1 and decided they'd roll back because poe2 is just a fork of poe1 from like 4 years ago and all the work they did to fix a lot of shit in poe1 gets discarded in the new project. It's actually fucking hilarious and sad.

You do not need to play as any specific archetype on ANY of the ascendancies guys. Titan's Hulking Form ascendancy node is OP and you can play a Titan as anything you want specifically because of how good that node is. You can play a Titan Caster, a Titan Bow build, crossbow, staves... whatever the fuck you want. And as long as you specifically do not choose maces Titan feels VERY good to play.

Return of the glorious lancers from the early days of D2? Put your :trollface: face on, wipe out the entire map laughing in everyone's face.
Ahh D2 classic. WWing through Chaos Sanctuary with a random rare lance, and an iceblink armor to freeze stuff. The good ole days.
