Expansions

 

  • Sacrifice of the Vaal
  • Forsaken Masters
  • The Awakening
  • Ascendancy
  • Atlas of Worlds
  • The Fall of Oriath

 

Path of Exile: The Fall of Oriath Features:

 

  • Act 5: The Fall of Oriath:  Return to Oriath. Home to the oppressive templar theorcracy. Explore frozen mountaintops, pristine temples and anarchic city streets. Leave a trail of furious destruction as you seek vengeance for your exile.
  • A Single Playthrough, A Complete Story: The previous difficulty level system has been removed to make room for another five brand new acts, bringing to the total to ten. In these five acts, you will weave through both new and familiar locations and witness the drastic results of your past actions.
  • Claim the Power of the Gods: Path of Exile's new pantheon system provides you with potent powers taken from the gods themselves. But beware, the gods won't go down without a fight.
  • New Ways to Play: With dozens of new items, new skills, new locations, new boss fights and more, Path of Exile: The Fall of Oriath will keep even the most die-hard fans busy for many months to come.

 

The Fall of Oriath adds six new acts: ACT 5 - ACT 10

 

The expansion will remove the three difficulties (normal, cruel and merciless) and replace it with a single campaign play-through. After travelling to Oriath in Act 5, the exile returns to Wraeclast in Acts 6 to 10, revisiting familiar lands and slaying the once suppressed gods that have awoken since confronting the Beast in Act 4. Campaigning is divided into two parts: Part 1 being Acts 1 to 5 and Part 2 being Acts 6 to 10. Both parts follows a similar progression; players visit roughly the same areas but their deeds in part one have had consequences that will have to be faced in part two.

 

Characters will receive a permanent elemental and chaos resistance reduction and soul cost penalty at the end of Act 5 and Act 10.

Well, it puts Diablo 3 to shame. Ouch. There is no comparison anymore. D3 is straight to the kiddy casual league. cKDiK5E.png

 

Played 4+ hour straight and WOW! So many things changed from last time I played. No longer clunky or unpolished. 

 

It runs very smooth, 60fps. The skills are overwhelming, like a crazy amount of tinkering you can do.  The areas are well designed. Currently in Act 2 and already having a blast. 

 

And all this is absolutely FREE. DSlgtF4.png This could easily be $60 game + expansion cost. Fantastic job by the devs.

It's sad there is no controller support for PC version...I don't enjoy playing with mouse and keyboard anymore :|..

 

They already making it for console then why not add controller option for pc as well?

Earlier, with all these effects, the fps wud turn to 1. Sometimes the whole server wud crash. But now, slowly they improved performance. All these effects run effortlessly :D

Thr is no controller support bcuz of precision and the need of free movement. You need to be standing in a precise position otherwise you will die.

The game is coming to consoles, but it wont be as hardcore as PC version due to controller limitations rather than hardware

I cant load into the game at all since the expansion dropped. Weird, it was working fine before. Now I just get "Connection was dropped" or some message. 

 

I mean its F2P so I cant really complain. But still, would be nice if I could continue my game. 

 

BTW game is super f**king good. Enjoying it more than D3.
