Nice scam GGG

Supporters are not entitled to direct where GGG spends that money.

On the other hand supporters do have a RIGHT TO FEEL scammed. Some of us including myself would not bought packs if i knew money is going to be used for console release. Deliberately hiding information and misleading players is disheartening. You can argue that they had interview about it long time ago, but GGG told so may lies and unfulfilled promises that no one takes them seriously anymore. Basically consumer goodwill and trust was cashed in to make xbox version.

I don't even have an Xbox one. It was very deceitful to use our money for that when we're led to believe it's for content and game improvements.

Real class act by not disclosing this.

Edit: would I have spend hundreds of dollars of I knew it was going toward Xbox port? Absolutely not. This is undeniably a bait and switch.
I dont even own a TV, not talking about console.

This is ludicrous, I hope you know that.

A business waiting until they have everything ready to announce a major expansion? Clearly they're deliberately hiding information and misleading people rather than ensuring that they will be able to deliver the product before they announce it.

A game company speculating that they might have a feature at some point, and later saying it didn't work out? Clearly they were lying and planned to leave those 'promises' unfulfilled, instead of daydreaming about things they could do. You could draw analogies to No Man's Sky, but those analogies would be incorrect and misleading.

A company using money from products they sold to expand the business and reach more customers? Obviously they tricked their consumers and betrayed their trust, even though the only trust the company promised was that the consumers would get the products they paid for (which literally everyone did).

If you don't like that GGG is expanding their business to XBOX, so be it. You can stop buying MTX because of that if you like. At the same time, I can think that that's an extremely elitist attitude (which it is).

Why you attack me to justify your purchase? I never compared to anything, yet you subconsciously compare Path of exile with no mans sky and thats somehow my fault? I think someone is dishonest.

I totally agree. You/we have no entitlement to anything.

Ppl did buy "supporter" packs though to support the game. And have obviously supported another game, without any knowledge about it. Total scam.

And ofc. it will impact the stronger platform negativly when you develop something for a weaker platform.

I paid enough, I'll make my own thread thanks.


According to whom?

Nowhere in GGG's manifesto does it say they're a PC-EXCLUSIVE dev. Get over it, pal.


Fool me once, shame on you, Fool me twice...

The announcement was made, shit is incoming, it's make or break times now boyz

This should be a sticked post. I would never have paid over 1k$ if i knew a console port would come before actualy fixing lot of mess that are in the game actualy. I eventualy enjoy the idea of a console port even if i clearly think it will badly impact further content added to the game but it can also bring some more money and great community content so why not ? :) Just too soon. Clearly;
Hf :)
All of us were suckers. We were supporting them so they could expand to xbox when the resources could've been spent on better CONTENT, CREATIVITY, BALANCE (this one especially, as it has been a JOKE), STABILITY ETC. ETC.

Instead, those resources have been used on... console expansion......

"The sales of Supporter Packs so far have funded a significant portion of Path of Exile's development. Thanks to your generous contributions, we were able to pay for the content and server costs of Path of Exile and several expansions. Over fourteen million gamers have enjoyed Path of Exile and many have supported us by purchasing supporter packs and microtransactions. This support is greatly appreciated. It covers not only our day-to-day development costs but also the development of future expansions.

Thank you so much for your continued support of Path of Exile. We hope you really enjoy these supporter packs and all that Atlas of Worlds has to offer!!



"Thank you for helping to support Grinding Gear Games and Path of Exile!" (When you buy a supporter pack)

No port, no Xbox game, fck scam...
