If money is a problem for you, I recommend selling any console you own and buying a PC.


with some PCs being small enough to put under your monitor it sure baffles me why oh why people still buy consoles... which are getting larger and larger. humans are weird man


Hah, that's what I've been saying for years. You can get better performance for the same amount of money. There really is no good argument for getting a console. You want to play in the living room on a TV? Cool. Plug in a controller on PC or use a Bluetooth controller. Steam has had support for this since ~2012 or something if I remember correctly (Steam Big Picture).

If the argument is console exclusive titles I might agree to a certain extent (I got Bloodborne for PlayStation 4 for instance, even though I don't use the console for anything else. Even so PC will always remain superior in every way.


yup, last console i had was PS1, because back then it was a big difference and even then it wasn't very practical. now beside the exclusive titles it looks like a cultural preference and the western practicality simply doesn't compute with console market, which baffles me further as to why in the hell people in west are buying consoles, getting the ported version of a western game onto no other than Sony machine and then proceed to complain they are hard to work with. GGG should region restrict the console versions no joke.

Nobody should have MTX transferred to POE 2.

AITA? GGG is point blank, allowing an unfair monetary advantage to be given to all other platforms. If you can't allow SONY users to transfer MTX then don't allow anyone, I know this will anger many users, but then they'll feel the frustrations that SONY users have. It's that simple.

Have you considered maybe, just possibly, playing PoE 2 on your PS5?
Here it is what nobody told you, lifes not fair suck it up buy the product or dont. Ive got Ps4 stuff Im not gonna be able to access too as Ive moved to PC and tbh Im done supporting Playstation. Ive been done since Ps5 prices were insane and not lookin back.
I have probably spent around 800$ on PlayStation.
I stopped playing a few leagues ago, been waiting for ever for Poe2!
In the mean time , I've built a beast of a gaming computer!

The ps5 handled poe alright, it still looked and ran way better on pc.
game crashes still happened , but not as much as the ps4. Since getting a good PC, I haven't played any games on the ps5 . A ps5 pro might handle the game better, but at this point , PC is master race.

If you have invested into a PC rigg , buying the MTX over again isn't a big deal.

It sucks losing all that , but Its not worth buying a Ps5 pro , when a good PC
will handle it better, play for the long game.

Not to mention the better trade market on PC
the only real reason you are dogging about this is because you bought it here because it was cheaper than on playstation and now you are mad mad

i dont know how long it is known that there is no merge with PS, but it is funny to me how entitled you are, with your ONE, singluar, 1, supporter pack here and acting like they owe you , doubt you have much on ps either, because if you did you know how ggg support is working and the would have helped you resolve the issue but naaaaaahhhh

Pretty much!

GGG are doing an almost unprecedented thing here, by allowing free transfers of MTX from one game to another. It's close to unheard of in the gaming world. Should they just go "Nah, Sony are being di**s, so we should be di**s too"?
Sometimes, just sometimes, you should really consider adapting to the world, instead of demanding that the world adapts to you.

Imagine if GGG told you that your MTX wouldn't transfer and infact you'd have to pay all of your RMT again.

How would you feel if you lost all of your Day 1 supporter packs and hideouts and transmogs and then told "heyyyyy..... wanna buy another support pack? :)"

This is truly unimpressive coming from a company that I used to have a lot of respect for. I will limit all spending on POE from here on out. I will not be buying premium supporter packages ever again. I feel sick to my stomach even buying the supporter pack I did on this account. I'm just one person so the couple thousand dollars less per fiscal year they don't receive from me won't matter to them at all.

This needed to be said. I won't expect a single person who's gaining an unfair monetary advantage to agree with me at all. ATIA? Or If the shoe was on the other foot would you feel the same way?

Don't bother replying "Blame Sony". They're not granting an unfair monetary advantage to anyone at all. This is entirely GGG. ALL MTX should be stuck to POE 1 and EVERYONE should start brand new on POE 2.


[Removed by Support]

This is indeed one of the most selfish posts I have seen. Because you are frustrated, you want others to also be? Do you want others to be ill when you are? And I don't mention even worse scenarios that could happen to person.

I suggest you to stick to Sony and PS5 console and that way you will not loose anything.

you can use POE 1 transaction in POE 2. Just you cannot use outside PlayStation environment .

Just logged in for the first time in months just to say if space allows my next character is going to be named UnfairMonetaryAdvantage.

Seriously, what does this phrase even mean in the context of Path of Exile? You make it sound like these MTX give character power (they don't!)

Maybe Sony meets you half-way. You get the same $ value in MTX, but its all the singing goblins. And you can't deactivate them.
