POE 2 early access paywall
|
POE 2 will be a free-to-play game at launch.
But you want to charge us for beta-testing your product during early access?.. Did you guys think this through? Last bumped on Dec 2, 2024, 10:10:25 PM

" It is the same as Poe 1 beta. Also, players always be the lab rat in for new mechanic in temp league. This is the start of forum signature: I am not a GGG employee. About the username: Did you know Kowloon Gundam is made in Neo Hong Kong?

They're projected to make millions from this, so I'd say it's pretty well thought out.
Besides, we receive an equal value in shop credits, so it's technically free access. |

" not equal. No so many people buy point only pack. They bought league supportor pack which is $30 that contains mtx and 300 points The new $30 tier of core pack effectively replaced mtx with "cd-key" This is the start of forum signature: I am not a GGG employee.

The POE EA is behind a 30$ USD Paywall. That's correct. The game is however free as it has always been. Other than the PSN MTX xfer debacle, GGG is one of the most respected game companies i've ever experienced. I have absolutely no problem giving them 30$ for this content. I would hardly call this a beta. I would've paid triple that and they know it.
If you want to wait for the game to be released and of course free of charge, you can go play another free game while you wait. Last edited by CloudIVXX#4358 on Nov 22, 2024, 1:55:20 PM

Early Access is a way for people who want to beta test the game to do so while supporting its ongoing development. If people want to play for free you can upon the official release. I don't understand why this concept is so hard for people to understand. Getting angry over purchasing a 30$ beta key that gifts you 300 points for MTX and providing potentially hundreds of hours of content is so strange. I don't get where the entitlement is coming from.

" So you never bought a stash tab? Unless you have too many tab and all desire mtx are bought, points are still usable in-game This is the start of forum signature: I am not a GGG employee. About the username: Did you know Kowloon Gundam is made in Neo Hong Kong?

It's a great way to filter the server load anyhow. Not to be an ass, but I'm not waiting in a queue behind someone who has contributed $0 to GGG.

paid beta access is industry standard, they thought it through. Nobody to blame but fellow gamers that this has became a thing. Once upon a time the industry used to pay us to test, then ebay happened and people selling access. Now here we are.
