Realizations, theory-crafting, filters, posts, PoE 2, and IRL dominate episode 238. I know that shounds like a lot of hopping around, but it's all tied together through the perfect rambles of conversation. GGG has been busy with patches, Jonathan is back on the Path of Exile 2 interview train, and we are getting into lawn season! It's like Christmas in April! Thank-you, as always, for your fantastic support. We love being a part of your weeks.

This week we had the pleasure of interviewing Rory Rackham, Lead Game Designer for GGG! He's had an impact on so many (maybe all?) aspects of Path of Exile and has been a major voice in the development of the game since PoE itself was in diapers; a true cornerstone of the company. In episode 237 we talked about the life of Rory, what led him to GGG, how the ride has been, where it's going, and snack bars! We had such a good time getting to know him, that we were surprised when the questions came to an end! Thanks, Rory for giving us your time! We had an awesome time getting to know you. And, of course, thanks to everyone who joined us this week. We can't thank you enough for your support and we know you'll love getting to know Rory more!

Check this out after you've listened to the episode. It's Rory rap we referred to:

"...Now this is a story all about how

ES got nerfed right into the ground

And I'd like to take a minute

Just sit right there

I'll tell you how I made our Int defences totally fair

At the top of the tree, it was nerfed and raised

On niche builds was where it spent most of its days

Not for min-maxin', just trying to be cool

If you didn't like life, CI was your tool

'Til Vaal Pact and GR let it put life to shame

Started making trouble in the metagame

It cakewalked the fights and the team got scared

We said, "You're getting a big rework 'til the meta's repaired."

I ground down the values on all of the gear

Had to buff some base types to keep it all fair

All to nerf what you could get from the best rare

Then I whipped up new life mods

That all armour could share

We dialed down some keystones, giving them all a flaw

We tweaked crafted mods and we added some more

So that's all the changes

But don't you be a hater

You'll try it all out and we'll tweak it in Beta"

The .1 patch is out! You know a league is set once the .1 patch gets released. GGG changed up some pretty big details in Path of Exile with it too! We're still having a great time playing Necropolis while trying out a whole bunch of different Atlas ideas, crafting strategies, respecs...it's all a PoE lovers dream. Hopefully you're enjoying the time you're putting into 3.24, along with episode 236's conversation! Thanks for tuning in!
