Not sure what I just watched or who this person is, looks like he had absolutely no idea how to play PoE and couldn't tell something was wrong the instant he warped from one point of the room to the other - also, even after that, he made no effort to move he just spammed the attack key. Not sure why people would watch something like this, seems like watching toddlers play chess. Maybe I am missing something.


Yes, you're missing the fact that he tried to move away numerous times. He was stuck inside an in-game object. Desync+glitch. Good times.

Something like this has happened to me as well. I desynced and got warped inside a wall and couldn't move. Unlike Athene, I exited the game before anything could kill me.


Ah, yeah didn't notice that, he seemed to just be attacking.

This is disgusting, honestly. I normally don't talk or whine about desync but seeing how thousands of people interested in the game getting their first impression of the game in that kind of way...is disheartening.

Fix the fucking desync, GGG. This is fucking horrible. It's not beta anymore.


Does your connection actually suck as bad as that video??? You have a problem, it's not GGG.

He didn't die to desync, he just stood there and tried to facetank the boss.

0/10

Look at the video again. He didn't attempt to facetank. He is incapable of moving. He desynched into a small nook in the wall invetween the cages, and he can't get out of it. Stop trying to defend bad netcode.
A scion may be born of the rich, and as such hold more opportunity...
but a scion will never be able to appreciate the finer beauty of those less fortunate.

Having a good PC and a good connection unfortunately doesn't make you safe from PoE's brilliant, award-winning netcode. I know from personal experience.

no wittgenstein u are not missing anything.. watching him play was so painfull thats whats bad for poe.. people could think poe is shit.. well it was the player not the game.


The only thing Athene did wrong in the video was not exiting the game when he got glitched and couldn't move.

Yeah, he was glitched in the cage, couldn't move. If you get knocked back or hooked, sometimes that happens. You could lightning warp or leap slam out of it I think.

This.
Let's not blame it all on desync. Yes, there was desync, but hooked into a wall is the real culprit here.

Edit- he could have also logged out when he noticed he couldn't move, but he's FUCKING ATHENE, man. So he tried to man mode it like he would in D3. Now he knows that shit doesn't fly here. If he doesn't come back to PoE it'll be because he can't be king of the hill in his first day playing.
All the things I want to remember are in the places I'd like to forget.

You guys are unbelievable lol. You think it's a good thing, just cause this guys acts like a douche? That may be so, but seriously people. He has a looooot of followers and a loooot of viewers/fans. He could bring a lot of publicity to the game and more people playing = more people PAYING (donating for the cool stuffz) and GGG can work on the servers maybe.

This is a bad loss, and in horrible fashion. The fact he had a what..8 second long desync? And then he got stuck on that wall and literally couldn't move? Fucking awful man.
LOL! PoE endgame? LOL!

I see, so his x number of follower completely overlooks the fact that anybody who quits a game after 1 encounter with a bug is.......?

Yeah, the glitch/desync/functionality issue/whatever you want to call it is not great, but playing the game consistently you should also know it's not persistent.

Someone who would quit something or never try because of one issue isn't going to stick around anyway.

I think zachatta is jelly of popular streamers. Source: he insults stream viewers ('gullible') and he says streamers are not important at all. GGG probably thinks differently. Source: GGG giving Kripp alpha access and stream permission of alpha + GGG being in Kripps Mumble and talking to him. That was in closed beta and GGG realized having Kripp as a popular streamer is a good marketing opportunity for the game.


Lemme guess, you donate monthly to guys playing video games?

Yeah by the way, you caught me. I like to live vicariously through others playing video games in my spare time. Instead of actually playing the game.

I guess you are right, someone email Chris, we need GGG to make sure (insert streamer) keeps playing.

It is good to know that at least this streamer isn't as much of a whiner as his fans.
