I don't know of any other company that would stop and think, "This one streamer out of 20 we invited had a rough segment at our convention, let's give him an hour with the CEO and a lead developer, on their day off".
And it's not like they used it to try and do damage control on PoE mobile, they just felt bad for you, having travelled all that way, and wanted to make it right.
Huge respect to them, and thank you for your questions, and for sharing it with us.
Been waiting for this, sweet interview to get to see!
Hey Coach! Happy to see you here....the stream last night was great...totems🤫😎slapped
This was a blessing in disguise in my humble opinion. Excellent interview
@@aivarioha Wow, looks like you're the clown in here. A shame I wasn't there to show you true hate speech. God damn.
Totally agree!
How does Chriss troll so hard with a straight face :) 'Players loved archnemesis so much' perfection.
Kiwi humour 😂
@@WizardosBoz The Brit influence in sarcasm remains lol
krillson master troll
Seriously. I think he farms the KEKWs. At some point whenever he is on the ZiggyD interview after new leagues are announced or whenever he is on community podcasts, he always says a joke he knows will get KEKWs and instantly looks at chat. I love that he's a gamer. He even watches Asmon lol
I liked it, top5 leagues of all time for sure not even trolling, Reddit was just being overdramatic
Excellent interview. Love seeing Chris and Mark like this, and they elaborated fully on quite a few important questions you brought to the table. Thank you! As many people as possible need to see this.
Love your youtube channel! Hope you keep growing.. Stay sane EXILE!
@@silentsnake08 Thank you! I'm going to try ;) STAY SANE!
I could literally listen to Mark and Chris talk about game design for hours and never stop being entertained. You can feel the passion these two have for their game, it's incredible!
Yes! Go figure. Gamers making games.
Thank you for everyone involved. This was a great interview. Mark giving very good insight on their game design.
Mark's mind is in the right place, I believe that guy, thanks for making this game, looking forward to play this a lot
Imagine if the D4 developers sat down and spoke this candidly 😮 Chris even making a joke about Archnemesis haha :D
@@flipnshifty Please watch the Kripparian gameplay from Exilecon. As soon as he found a rare item he was doing probably 10x dps and clearing just like PoE1.
@@flipnshifty Calm down.. it's a freakin gameplay/mechanic-showcase demo of PoE 2 in Act 3 with white/blue gear. Chris and Mark even said they won't leave the zoomers behind and are willing to show us endgame gameplay of PoE 2 before the release in the future.
@@rob1n1337 Just let them believe what they wanna believe. They'll find reasons to doom and gloom anything and everything without any creditable evidence to validate their opinions.
I love listening to interviews with these guys. Listening to them explain the decisions and challenges just shows how much work and thought they put into POE.
It's amazing to see how wonderful Chris and Mark are, just as humans.
I remember messaging Chris on discord and he actually responded and added me to his friend's list. Respectfully, I didn't bug him, I just thanked him for making a great game and moved on. I like to think, maybe it made his day, but the fact that someone who is so high-up in one of my favorite gaming companies actually responded to a random person on discord speaks volumes about his love and dedication to everyone and his game.
I emailed Chris once just to say thank you for something he'd said, nothing important, and he sent me a personal reply, it was awesome.
I've talked to him a couple times in the game some years back when he still sat in global chat. he's always been that way.
Reminds me of Gaben. Need more people like this in the gaming industry.
I'm glad you did this interview because hearing Chris and Neon express their mindset, philosophies, and approach to further development and how to tackle existing problems gives me a ton of confidence in both games.
The more I listen to the devs talk the more I fall in love with GGG I swear
So happy they gave you this opportunity. Well deserved because you handled the mobile panel you did well despite the hiccups. Also this shows that the GGG team really aren't out of touch like a lot of other studios. They genuinely care about the game and players and the content creators. I'm happy to be a 10 year PoE vet and keep supporting a great team at GGG and a really great PoE content creator like you Sub! :D
Wow. You really got a lot of good info about PoE in this interview! Going to half to listen to it a few times to let it soak in.
Ty for this, I've been worried for my enjoyment for PoE 2. Slowly but surely I've gotten more and more hype after thinking and learning more and more about it.
This interview answered my questions and gave away the info i needed to understand how the now 2 games are in the hands of the people who's actually able to make both (all three in reality)
games amazing. Cya over on Twitch!
Props to GGG for doing this given the difficulties at Exilecon - huge props. Also, Mark you look great man, hope you got a few compliments at Exilecon to keep that motivation high - keep up the good work.
This was a fantastic followup interview. Thanks, subtractem and GGG!
Thanks a lot for this. Your questions were so good, we got some really encouraging answers. Just simply seeing the passion when they are talking about PoE1/2 makes me confident in the future of the franchise.
Here's hoping you get to do more interviews with Chris and Co. in the future. Just letting them go on and on was so refreshing to hear. Cheers and bravo to you for this treat sir.
The overwhelming new players with tons of information is so spot on. I see these reddit posts of new players where in the comments there is 50 different links to tons of information and I'm thinking "Why man, that's just gonna make it worse, just play the game and do what looks fun and solve problems as they arise"
And at 50:00 they've just confirmed it'll not only be the same, but could have even more depth (i.e. complexity), lol. They're changing some things to make it easier to understand (like the skill system) but are not interested in making it any more accessible to new players, which is contradictory to what they've been talking for a while. Even the lead/director of PoE 2 said they want to get new players in, this won't happen with such approach. I am very bummed that they're sticking to their PoE approach instead of streamlining PoE 2 a bit so it can remain a complex game, but not a pain in the ass to play by yourself. I was hyped af for PoE 2 for this exact reason (them claiming it'll be easier to get into and systems being better), but in this interview they've basically said "nah PoE 2 stays sweaty cause we like it that way". I will still test it out and see how much has changed and if the changes are good enough for me to actually care getting into the game more, cause i am surely neither playing someone else's build, nor learning every single mechanic for a few hundred hours. If they've learned from PoE as they claimed here, they will make it way clearer and do a better job at explaining mechanics, cause in PoE it's a disaster :D
wow amazing interview. you ended up having the best segment of all exilecon 😂
I’m 10 minutes in and while I’ll say I don’t always see eye-to-eye on your approach to the game, I absolutely -love- how you approached this. I was a journalist for a while and an interview as candid as this, and in this form, is perfect. The production isn’t 10/10 but the quality absolutely is and with what you have had to work with, I think you have killed it even despite the “nerves” of the beginning.
Keep banging out videos man. Sincerely appreciate your contributions in the space and it’s nice to see another content creator with a fresh approach.
awesome interview, lots of great questions and answers. i just loved listening to all three of you. the main thing that stood out to me is: NO LIFE ON THE TREE!!!
Thank you for asking about Sanctum uniques!! Great interview :)
This was one of the best things I've ever listened to. Thank you so much, and I'm really happy for you.
i realized today that i dont really know much about mark and jonathan when it comes to PoE/argps in general compared to chris so i really hope in the coming year we get more interviews with them as we ramp towards PoE2 beta so i can get a better handle on their mindset.
Amazing interview and really gave a much better insight into the future plans. Gods I cannot friggen wait for 3.22 and the future of this franchise.
That mobile showcase might have been a disaster, but it lead to probably the best POE content that isn't in the game.
This was an incredible interview. Thank you!
You did great, Sub! I'm so happy they let you do this interview and you asked a lot of really great questions :)
Awesome interview. Thank you and devs for this.
This is probably the best thing to come out of Exilecon outside of the major announcements in the keynote. Always love to hear Chris and Mark talk about the game and getting deep into the weeds over reasoning and context for certain things.
Thanks for making this happen and for being such a great interview host! You asked all the right questions, and just letting them talk it out was definitely the best way to go with this one.
1:04:36 "net decking" lol, Chris is such a MtG fan. Awesome interview, and glad you got the opportunity to do it :) I really like what they're putting out for poe1 and 2!
So glad youre finally getting the attention from GGG that you deserve...good shit man
Great interview. You definitely touched on plenty of community concerns, but also asked some generally interesting questions. I always love interviews with these guys because it's clearly not rehearsed and diluted into PR friendly sound bites.
The sheer transparency of this studio is just so fucking refreshing. Much like Larian, watching devs talk about a game they actually play is night and day when compared to other studios.
dude, i am just 10 minutes in to the inverview and it it great. great job!
Dood! Ive been awaiting this ever since you hinted it was coming. This is awesome! Thanks man! Keep the hood working coming!
Bane leveling build enjoyer here!
A great conversation and opportunity they gave you. Really well done!
Loved the interview. So glad that you got this opportunity, definitely deserved!
Congrats, man. I'm really impressed with this interview. You deserve, and please, I don't think anyone should feel bad for a demo. These things happen all the time. I was watching live and paying attention to the game itself, not caring about being laggy.
It's so nice to see that they care and tried something to fix it.
Thanks for bringing this exclusive content. Liked how simple and honest the interview was, the GGG guys are great, and you too!
Really great interview - covered a lot of juicy topics :) good questions and well conducted.
Amazing interview, excellent questions and so much passion from everyone involved.
Was so excited for you when you told me you needed to run to prepare for this and was awesome to see you could record it ! Some great clarifications , an awesome chat and 3 passionate guys just chatting about a game they love ❤
What an amazing thing you got to experience, Sub! Also getting to share that with all of us is amazing. I thought the questions and answers were very interesting. Mark is such a freaking nerd about his job and I love it! Props to Chris and Mark and thanks to you, Sub! It really was an excellent interview!
You did a great job asking questions, thanks for doing this
Fantastic interview, very impressive, knowing how fast it came together.
And what a great way to try to make up for the snafu with the mobile demo. It sounds like it did make your experience a much more positive one. Really makes me happy to see how GGG handled this situation. It really says a lot!
Great interview, could listen to these talks forever.
Thanks for the hardwork on editing. :)
Thank you for your work here. It was such a wholesome interview. You could also feel the dynamics change over the course of it. It felt great to watch.
Great interview. they really answer some questions that we're dying to ask , Great stuff!
Awesome interview. Thanks for sharing. Here's hoping we can get an Act 1 demo or something before the Closed Beta. I keep getting so hyped for PoE2 and then remember how long I have to wait so it's hard to maintain the hype =P Hopefully we'll get more progress reports at least.
That was such a refreshing and fun interview. Great stuff.
great interview! so looking forward ;-)
Great interview! Loved the stuff at the end from Neon on power.
For such a short amount of time to prepare some questions for them, I myself thought they were all interesting, not just from the answer we got but from the insight in the game as well. Glad you got the chance to talk to them, it was definitely deserved! Love the content as always!
Now that is finally a great interview, no stress, no interruptions, good stuff!
Excelente entrevista. Thx for upload
Awesome! Good for you! I'm happy for you and I'm excited to sit down and listen to it!
Amazing interview Subtractem, you got answers to so many things the community was wondering about :D ty!
Great interview, thank you! I laughed hard when dodge roll came up because i actually have been use space bar for flame dash/leap slam since i played d4 and got used to their dodge, roll it feels great. Perhaps the best thing I got out of that game lol
The time to just explain stuff and how they got to think like that was gold. I will probably watch more times to let it all sink in. Great Interview, congratulations on just letting them talk, I know it is easier said than done.
Glad to see Chris and Mark making sure to do right by you, you are far and away one of my favorite content creators. Loved the interview
Thanks for coming to Exilecon, you're a great part of the community.
Pretty amazing from them to make up for whatever they had to made up for, and come back the day after.
You touched really important aspects about design philosophy. Very interesting interview.
👍I can't wait to play poe2.
Fantastic interview Subtractem, you are quite good at it.
Was great interview. Glad it worked out.
This interview like a good dessert after exilecon's main course. Can't wait what unfolds for both poe1 and poe2, also great job and thank you for your work, subtractem!
it's amazing to me just how smart those two are, and knowing that they were basically just two dudes who loved diablo and wanted to play a game that felt like a true successor to that, and never have they swayed from that vision. they are so analytical, thoughtful, and insightful, it's pretty amazing.
I can't imagine how daunting interviewing them must have been, and you did a great job! cheers bro
This is so much better than any of the "official" interviews aired at EC. Thank you so much for sharing this subtractem. I, for one, am glad the mobile game was stuttering, this is WAY better. 😂 Much love!
Awesome interview bro, you are the man! hope you enjoyed Exilecon & NZ and got some kiwi hospitality
Such an insightful interview, the best kind you can do with GGG devs, thank you Sub!
Amazing thing to see pop up in the feed. Grats on the interview, this was really great.
I just love hearing these guys talk about their game and just games in general.
Awesome that you got to do this 👌
Loved the interview; great job!
Your were great! Congratulations by the interview and how you handle it.
Great gesture by them, and well done by you! Tech issues on both ends but no worries it was great. 57:22ish about not showing endgame zoomin, cast on death league xD?
The fact we're getting the sanctum items back is really nice. Original sin gave some crazy fun gear setups, aswell as god rolled curse jewels, for the (Wasn't it hexblast with vixens) and you could do some crazy dmg. Honestly it's looking to be a really dope league, with the touch on melee I do hope we can see some good improvements for this league.
Great interview! GGG devs are awesome! Looking forward to PoE2!
When it comes to accessibility for new players, they could just make optional build templates for people to follow ingame, something that will get them from act 1 to act 10 atleast that also explains damage and defence scaling of that particular build in a easy to understand way, without walls of text. Once they get to maps, they will be on their own but atleast with an understanding of what stats to look for on gear and on passive tree etc.
Great interview; future of both games looking very bright :D
Many thanks to all of you and GGG bois (and girls) you’re the best!
Can’t wait for all things PoE coming up!
Damn that worked out well. Terrible experience parlayed into something pretty awesome. Congrats. Maybe those time constraints brought out great questions, haha.
Just goes to show how much GGG tries its best to support their community, I'll watch anything with Chris Wilson in it, thanks for taking them up on their offer, probably the first interview they've done since PoE2 announcement? Other then Exilecon. You can always tell how passionate these guys are about their game.
Loved the interview, thanks Subtractem an GGG..
You did a great job with this interview!
Niceeeeeee watching a bit now and save the rest for my morning coffee tmrw
Edit- nvm watched it all in one go, great interview
Im so hyped, gonna watch it right after I wake up tommorow!
Thank you Subtract! I love this game so much and you did a great interview! I confess that the admiration I have for Chris Wilson makes me unable to ask him good questions, precisely because of how much I admire him!
Damn there's some juicy stuff in this! Hell yeah Subtractem great interview! More than made up for the mobile demo, I hope.
Great interview. Thanks
Great information here, thanks dude
Well deserved dude, happy for you and the future.
Fantastic interview! You don't look nervous, Subtractem - you come across as a fan excited for this opportunity. The best content creators of any game are also passionate fans! Thank you for this wonderful glimpse behind the curtain!
biggest thanks for the interview
Thanks for the interview and learning more about the intentions of Path of Exile Subtractem.
What an awesome interview, thank you.
Amazing. Thanks for such great content.
Great interview subtractem! The fact that Chris felt bad that his original involvement wasnt great from the company's side didn't give subtractem great content so they set up this interview just shows Chris' character and the type of guy he his. The fact that this mam runs the company shows from the top down. Thanks again GGG for all you do.
Really like that they added weight and momentum. Playing melee sounds exciting now.
Great interview!
a very insightful interview that more people should see
