I'm glad someone cares enough about PoE lore to document it in a digestible format like this while we're all trying to clear maps at breakneck pace. Good work!
I could tell from the flavor text that PoE had some good lore, it was just so cryptic and scattered that I found it exceedingly difficult to piece together. Thanks for grinding it out and making sense of it all, you've given me a new appreciation for the game 😁
@@GOOOOOOOOOOOOODDAY Oh I played Melee alright. Did all content with Frostblades of Katabasis. But with a Slayer. Still Karui sad. Fuck pressing warcries to double my slam damage.
Glad to see this exist. As fun as it is to pierce together in game and how atmospheric and generally melancholical the lore is its good to know someone has compiled it and a video like this exist
A friend of mine shared your video when we were talking about trying to catch up on the lore of PoE 1 for the upcoming release of 2 in early access. Thanks so much for condensing and presenting all this information in such a manner! Looking forward to checking out your next lore video on the rest of the acts.
Commenting mostly for the algorithm, but I'm glad there are people interested in POE's lore, which has no business being this good for a game where story doesn't matter.
*Fumbles with starting the vid and accidentally skips to **57:00* *instantly subs* Also thx for making these. Trying refresh my memory reading the wiki, constantly moving between hyperlinks as reading lol Much more comprehensible to have someone speak about it out loud.
This was a fantastic watch!!! Do you hve any videos on Lady Dialla. I never thought i would love being called "Not-a-cockroach" but here we are xD Unbug was good too
Wish I could give this video multiple thumbs-up :) Great job recounting the lore and helping catch me up to speed. Looking forward to the continued story in POE 2
Awesome video! I never realized PoE had such an in depth story to it. Ive been playing since 2015 and just couldnt have been bothered to read/listen to everything. After playing through the campaign and maps thousands of time at this point, this video has made so much sense now. Great work an im stoked to watch 6-10 now. Subbed for sure! 😃
Yeah I juat skip all dialogue and lore even though is well voiced, well written, and interesting. Because I just want that loot fix. Really shows how amazing the loot system and league systems are.
Thanks for this one, I've been playing this since the year it released and in the 11 years since I have forgotten so many details that the story just became mush in my head.
Bless Kitten Cat for taking on the lore of POE! POE has so much potential to have a good and widely known lore that's is even worth to be put on the big screen... I'm a lore, myth maniac as well. The lore of Expedition alone can be made into a big screen. Unfortulately, the lore is the last of their issue!!! Keep going Noodles!
Not sure if it's new this League, but there's a new boss in Act 2 outside the crypt. There are three underground rooms with devotional statues, after activating them all, you get the text "The mother of two wept, because she was once the mother of three", and in the middle of the three statues "The Forgotten Daughter" spawns.
Thanks so much for this compilation, I am starting to play this game right now, and I always liked to follow the lore, but I found it difficult while playing. This way I complete an Act and then watch next part of your video, makes the game much more enjoyable :) Great work!
This is EXACTLY what I was looking for - really interested in the Lore but definitely lacking the patience to put it together - thanks for this, well done 😁
I think i got this in recommended cause i skipped every single dialog, its actually pretty interesting to know the lore now haha. Thanks! Awesome content
As a new player, i really intrigue by PoE lore but just wanna go "straight to the killing" when i play, i have beat the game blindplaythrough and watching this left me in awe because how good and interesting the lore is. i personally peak interest when Sin was introduce and like i said, really glad this video exist. Thank you so much.
I've always been amazed at how engrossing PoE's convoluted lore is. A lot of the history is just an excuse for names for loot and mcguffins to drive our ARPG rampage across the map. HOWEVER, the fundamental concepts of magic and divinity and monstrosity are incredibly fascinating and are woven beautifully through a richly woven tapestry of history and geography.
Sorry if this is a newb question, I started playing for the first time a couple days ago. I know it’s a lore video, but I noticed as you’re leveling, you have gear and flasks that aren’t like idk new player looking but my understanding was that you start all over every time a new league begins, how did you get such crazy looking gear? Is it just from experience playing and crafting or?
Many players will play multiple characters during a league, so you can use your first character to get currency / better gear for a second character. That’s what you see here!
I know this must be cheesy but is there a chance that you gonna do the same thing @POEII also I saw that you have Div Card design I would love to see something like the The Knowledge for some currency because you really help a lot of us with the origins of POE and to be fair its a great lore with a amazing job from you Many Thanks
@KittenCatNoodle Awww thanks for the reply I knew you wouldn't let us down with some nice knowledge videos on lure while we players just skip everything to finish as quicker As slaugh because this game it's gonna be some hardcore stuff but thanks again btw have you designed your Div Card from the POE Box Vault Surprise ??
Another kitten cat noodle here. Can confirm, best lore vids. Attack cursor on TV just like when my hooman plays game, and calm voice keeps hooman still on couch so I can use heated lapseat with no fuss. 10/10. (Purring away while writing just staring at TV after tiring himself chasing cursor around lol Start using these like reading a bed time story for him 😂 - the hooman)
I know this is late but you missed out a snippet of lore in the Chamber of Innocence which shows that the reason Kitava is on Oriath is because he invaded the island supposedly from Ngkamahui and Innocence struck him down and drove him beneath the earth.
From Ancestor league, we can assume the silver coins are similar to the ones placed on the eyes of the dead in old religions, so they could pay the entity who ferried souls from the living to the dead.
i run your lore series when i lvl its a great adition to my lvling experience i would love if the great voice acting was a button u could activate in the game settings so u got the area history when you enter a area the vocie acting is simply just great in this game bassicly actiwating a storie mode buttton and all the stories hidden around the areas was played when u enter tehe area
A question, would it be legit reason for Dialla to call us not-a-cockroach as a part of a joke, as we never see what the plater character is saying to these npc's? "Hello cockroach" -"I'm not a cockroach!" - "Oh, hello, not-a-cockroach."
Thanks for the compilation, it's an excellent summary of the main story. One question though: Is there anyone in-game that pronounces Parandus' name as Chit-us? It feels like it would be pronounced Kai-tus from the greek letter Chi and words like Chitin (Kai-tin) which is what fingernails are made of.
I've mostly skimmed through all the text and voiceline, so that I can watch the lore videos on RUclips after I finish the game. Here we go, my body is ready.
Bestel is the local stoner.... his favorite spot to smoke n chill is the beach, but everytime he goes there he has to leave in a hurry and loses something there....
i just love this videos.. it gives meaning to the nonsense slaughter of diferent characters and bosses .. Thank you so much!! before this i was like: "I dont know who i am.. I dont know what im doing here.. all i know is that i've to kill.."
A monstrous puckered barricade. Look dude, i love all kinds of lore, morbid and uncomfortable generally better. But thinking of that pile of gunk as "puckered". Ya gave me a bit of a stich.

Just found you. Been playing POE for a while and now that POE2 is coming out I wanna brush up on the lore. Thank you for making that possible.
Ended up here for the same reason looking forward to this video.
I'm glad someone cares enough about PoE lore to document it in a digestible format like this while we're all trying to clear maps at breakneck pace. Good work!
currently listening while blasting maps after spending 5000 hours skipping lore and blasting maps
The history of Wraeclast: A long lesson in "probably people shouldn't be immortal."
"Wraeclast: a study on the downsides of naturalistic apotheosis and its effects on non-deterministic planar conditions"
Why are you so in love with death?
I could tell from the flavor text that PoE had some good lore, it was just so cryptic and scattered that I found it exceedingly difficult to piece together. Thanks for grinding it out and making sense of it all, you've given me a new appreciation for the game 😁
Only lore I need to know while in game is "how to not fuck up my build, again" lore.
@@AnaICarnaval Mines is trying to figure out what killed me this time, was it detonate dead, or detonate dead lmao
corrupted blood wants to know your health pools location@@19ryuusei
The Karui fled because Melee was nerfed.
So true, RIP
And came back with Kalguur colonials.
@@skyguy713 Yessir SLAM BUFFED
boy I would love to see this guys reaction to the current season
@@GOOOOOOOOOOOOODDAY Oh I played Melee alright. Did all content with Frostblades of Katabasis. But with a Slayer. Still Karui sad. Fuck pressing warcries to double my slam damage.
The amount of research you must of put into this to make such a comprehensive video is wild.
Exactly what I was looking for today. Thank you
Thank you, Kitten Cat Noodle, for the details I rush past every league.
Glad to see this exist. As fun as it is to pierce together in game and how atmospheric and generally melancholical the lore is its good to know someone has compiled it and a video like this exist

Awesome work, you might be the number 1 authority concerning PoE history!!
Commenting mostly for the algorithm, but I'm glad there are people interested in POE's lore, which has no business being this good for a game where story doesn't matter.
story lore is very nice. atlas lore is literally just "hits blunt, get this"
Great videos, hope these get a lot more views for all the people getting caught up before PoE 2!
*Fumbles with starting the vid and accidentally skips to **57:00*
*instantly subs*
Also thx for making these. Trying refresh my memory reading the wiki, constantly moving between hyperlinks as reading lol Much more comprehensible to have someone speak about it out loud.
This was a fantastic watch!!! Do you hve any videos on Lady Dialla. I never thought i would love being called "Not-a-cockroach" but here we are xD Unbug was good too
Great background when mapping. I always have to watch it a few times but I learn something new each time. Thanks Noodle.
Wish I could give this video multiple thumbs-up :) Great job recounting the lore and helping catch me up to speed. Looking forward to the continued story in POE 2
Currently the best Poe Lore video I have watched. Havent played Poe in ages but the lore always interested me. Great vid! :D
Ty so much for taking the time to create these videos ! Really appreciate it. Amazing work
7:35 Pour one out for Navali 🙏
Awesome video! I never realized PoE had such an in depth story to it. Ive been playing since 2015 and just couldnt have been bothered to read/listen to everything.

Nicee, time to rewatch them all
Thanks for putting it all together, finally decided to figure out what was happening in depth.
Thanks for this one, I've been playing this since the year it released and in the 11 years since I have forgotten so many details that the story just became mush in my head.
Nice work. Finally I know story behind slaughtering everything that moves during gameplay.
Very well done, thanks for your time in explaining the lore! It's actually very complex and compelling when seen in like this.
Glad you could break this down for me. Also with a soothing voice!
Bless Kitten Cat for taking on the lore of POE! POE has so much potential to have a good and widely known lore that's is even worth to be put on the big screen... I'm a lore, myth maniac as well.

i assumed that was the other lore letters of a mother during the cataclysm? ill have to look into it.
Thanks so much for this compilation, I am starting to play this game right now, and I always liked to follow the lore, but I found it difficult while playing. This way I complete an Act and then watch next part of your video, makes the game much more enjoyable :) Great work!
Usually i pay attention to lore but i cant be bothered to read in a multiplayer game so thank you so much for making these videos!
LETS FUCKING GO. this series is exactly what i was looking for
Thank you for this, just what I needed before PoE 2 :)
a much needed series! i always wondered whats the story when i blast through those monsters
ty for this video. I searched up "Path of Exile story explained", and so far you're doing a great hob.
Coming back to these again for PoE 2, definitely will remember it for sure this time.
This is EXACTLY what I was looking for - really interested in the Lore but definitely lacking the patience to put it together - thanks for this, well done 😁
I think Fidelitas how you pronounce it is correct, also instant subscription after 2 minutes of first video, amazing content and delivery, thank you ❤
I think i got this in recommended cause i skipped every single dialog, its actually pretty interesting to know the lore now haha. Thanks! Awesome content
outstanding video, great job. it's so cool to see it all tied together.
Nice! Thanks! I think I watched the old ones here and there but I'm re-watching.
Gotta be honest, I did not pay attention to any of the lore when I played through the campaign, so this video is just what I needed
This compilation is perfect. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this series
This is dope! Had no idea the unique items were related to the story as well
Great video, I really appreciate all the lore being dumped into one place! I'm fairly certain Chitus is pronounced Kie-tus however.
As a new player, i really intrigue by PoE lore but just wanna go "straight to the killing" when i play, i have beat the game blindplaythrough and watching this left me in awe because how good and interesting the lore is. i personally peak interest when Sin was introduce and like i said, really glad this video exist.

Third rewatch of 2023 yes please!

@@KittenCatNoodleThank you! That makes a ton of sense. I am lost myself just playing the one lol hope I can get to that point eventually.
I think at this point you have put a similar amount of effort into making the lore make sense as GGG has in the last 10 years
thank you so much for this :-) very clearly explained i really enjoyed it
58:29 how the fuck did you manage to say that!
I know this must be cheesy but is there a chance that you gonna do the same thing @POEII also I saw that you have Div Card design I would love to see something like the The Knowledge for some currency because you really help a lot of us with the origins of POE and to be fair its a great lore with a amazing job from you Many Thanks
That’s the plan! Not sure how quickly I can get it out but I will do my best
@KittenCatNoodle Awww thanks for the reply I knew you wouldn't let us down with some nice knowledge videos on lure while we players just skip everything to finish as quicker As slaugh because this game it's gonna be some hardcore stuff but thanks again btw have you designed your Div Card from the POE Box Vault Surprise ??
Another kitten cat noodle here.
Can confirm, best lore vids.
Attack cursor on TV just like when my hooman plays game, and calm voice keeps hooman still on couch so I can use heated lapseat with no fuss. 10/10.
(Purring away while writing just staring at TV after tiring himself chasing cursor around lol Start using these like reading a bed time story for him 😂 - the hooman)
I know this is late but you missed out a snippet of lore in the Chamber of Innocence which shows that the reason Kitava is on Oriath is because he invaded the island supposedly from Ngkamahui and Innocence struck him down and drove him beneath the earth.
I don’t believe anything Templars say! ;)
@@KittenCatNoodle But you did believe them about Sin and Innocence? Either way good video.
From Ancestor league, we can assume the silver coins are similar to the ones placed on the eyes of the dead in old religions, so they could pay the entity who ferried souls from the living to the dead.
I just realized... Oriath may have been Hinekoras "night clad island"
Whats the song at the end of this video? It's super catchy. I can't get it out of my head.
i run your lore series when i lvl its a great adition to my lvling experience
i would love if the great voice acting was a button u could activate in the game settings so u got the area history when you enter a area
the vocie acting is simply just great in this game bassicly actiwating a storie mode buttton and all the stories hidden around the areas was played when u enter tehe area
Awesome video ❤
1:00:00 so thats why the music for the dried lake is so sad :'(
Love this!!!! Thank you.
This video was well done
A question, would it be legit reason for Dialla to call us not-a-cockroach as a part of a joke, as we never see what the plater character is saying to these npc's? "Hello cockroach" -"I'm not a cockroach!" - "Oh, hello, not-a-cockroach."
It's because Dialla calls the Blackguards cockroaches, and you are not a Blackguard...therefore, Not-A-Cockroach
Well written and well told ty :)
Thanks for the compilation, it's an excellent summary of the main story. One question though: Is there anyone in-game that pronounces Parandus' name as Chit-us? It feels like it would be pronounced Kai-tus from the greek letter Chi and words like Chitin (Kai-tin) which is what fingernails are made of.
I was like "no reference to fucking when she talks about Gravivious" Then checked your Patreon and saw the last tier :D Well played lady, well played!
Act 1 can now be updated with where those silver coins come from
This has been great! Thank you Noodle 😊❤
moral of the story, "kitava eat a snicker, you're not you when you're hungry"
thank you for doing this!!! bcuz I skipped all the dialogue
when is the sanctum lore video? 🥺🥺🥺
Since I’m out of town I can’t work on it BUT it’s been recorded and edited audio so it’s all matching up videos bits. Aiming to have it out next week!
Great job, exile!
Still sane Noodle ? Anyway, onto the video watching
me on perpetual night due to unbreaking the seal: oh its nightime already
me on killing vaal oversoul after 5 mins: oh its morning already
I've mostly skimmed through all the text and voiceline, so that I can watch the lore videos on RUclips after I finish the game. Here we go, my body is ready.
This is cool, I just started playing 2 days ago
A great telling, by a lovely lady. Thanks
I See a Noodle vid. I like it.
Path of Exiles deserves a two part movie! 💯❤
what a cute noodle :3
Bestel is the local stoner.... his favorite spot to smoke n chill is the beach, but everytime he goes there he has to leave in a hurry and loses something there....
And so it begins; time to prep for PoE2.
Well this complicated mess of a story still makes more sense than the ending of Diablo 4.
Thanks noodle
finally i understand all this stuff
Only thing better than a good lore video is a good lore video w a babe narrator
The real question is: What was that unique jewel that you drop from Innosence :D?
i love your voice so much
Another league and once again i'm here while getting through the campaign.
I played since beta and never bothered with lore. Will keep it that way. Great work.
Can u play this on xbox s?
i just love this videos.. it gives meaning to the nonsense slaughter of diferent characters and bosses .. Thank you so much!! before this i was like: "I dont know who i am.. I dont know what im doing here.. all i know is that i've to kill.."
58:06 haha doody
miss navali so much v.v
I have over 3400 hours in this game. And started again after a 6 year pause. Perhaps i should start to learn the story 😬😬😬
A monstrous puckered barricade. Look dude, i love all kinds of lore, morbid and uncomfortable generally better. But thinking of that pile of gunk as "puckered". Ya gave me a bit of a stich.
Sin was also affected by the beast? Why did Sin choose to „help“ mortals by getting rid of all the gods? Isn’t Sin supposed to be the „bad“ guy?
As soon as you reach the video about Sanctum, the truth about Innocence and Sin will be revealed. I could tell you but dont want to spoil it
