Just a heads-up for anyone interested. Path of Exile is having a public weekend for stress-testing their servers. Games like Diablo would be the closest equivalent. RPG, classes are separated by strength, intelligence and dexterity. Hybrid classes also exist. Interesting skill-tree combinations. Here.
Re: Path of Exile - Public weekend Everyone who has played and enjoyed the diablo franchise: TRY THIS GAME. I'm drowning in nostalgia. From the very start I'm getting tidy bits of deja vu. Zombies right off the bat to smack. Few screenshots to spark interest.
Re: Path of Exile - Public weekend I downloaded this last night when I saw a screenshot of the passive skill tree.
Re: Path of Exile - Public weekend Played for about an hour last night. Was nice seeing the devs on answering questions and stuff like Uber does.
Re: Path of Exile - Public weekend I'll put it out there I never played Diablo or anything like that so this game was very new to me. I had no clue what I was doing at first, just killing stuff? I died at lot at first too. I think I got to level 6-7 and by then I was really enjoying the game. I agree with Hako, it was nice seeing the devs. in chat and it did remind me of Uber. lol
Re: Path of Exile - Public weekend Wee update. For 10 USD dollars you can purchase a beta key for yourself. ( or a friend ) There are several other options too. Read about them here. Need to consider purchasing bronze pack for the extra keys, but simply bying Early access pack 3 times would be cheaper.
Re: Path of Exile - Diablo-like RPG Heads up! Another stress test weekend incoming! Any new folks joining in, give me a shout. I should have a few skill gems to spare.
