      No idea if you cover this yet as i just started the podcast
      but i feel like the current endgame is just "a" delve like endgame to explain the cataclysm to players and have great lore drops. I feel like this because the refuge makes sense as a cool experience for players to have at the end of act 3 cruel but is very at odds with Doryani's voicelines about going to the Karui at the end of normal act 3 if you travel back to the ziggurat campsite and talk to him.
      this also might make sense as to why we dont have a map tab or breach tab -either because this isnt maps and is the delve replacement and we dont have the full amount of breachstones yet - esh, chayula etc. because they are modern day breachlords presumably who came to power because we murdered the old big guy in the past.

      Omg CatNoodle! Me and my friends have been speaking about PoE2 lore and we're confused as hell please help enlighten us.
      1. Why is Sin the character whom we've buffed with tons of god souls in PoE1 easily owned by a count pre-beast buff
      2. Why is Alva and expedition crew still alive? How many years have passed? Are they immortal?
      PoE2 lore is soooo weak

      @@Snowy123 I will try my best!
      1. The count uses runes to bind the hooded one. The runes are powerful enough to hold him, probably because they’re not connected to divinity or corruption… but I’d love to know more about the runes and hope that’s explored in future campaign!!
      2. Alva is younger here than PoE 1. She is just learning about her Vaal blood magic and talks about hoping to found the treasure hunting society called Reliquarians in PoE 2, whereas in PoE 1 she says she’s just left the Reliquarians (and fibs about their origin apparently). As for Expedition? No idea. They show up in current questionably-cannon in-the-past endgame, so they may be part of time travel shenanigans. But I think maybe they just stay lookin fresh…. We will have to see!

    46:18 @ The Demon of Atzoatl conversation, yes he's absolutely talking about the player. Depending on your read of the lore there's more than one person the demon could be, I think the fact that there were multiple Conquerors of the Atlas confirms that more than 1 atlas-exploring-exile working with Alva could be considered cannon.
    Regardless, from where the Doryani we fight is standing all he knows is he and Atziri's architects attempted, potentially multiple times but that could also get into like alternate timelines or something, to construct the Temple of Atzoatl and at multiple points mystery murder hobos with godlike powers appeared in raids, killed architects, and then ultimately besieged the temple in it's entirety alongside somebody who looks *exactly* like Alva, because as is established it IS her just her future self we work with in PoE 1.
    When Doryani's captain of the guard captures this look alike and then immediately after a mystery murder hobo with godlike powers tears their way through his personal fortress of solitude to rescue her, I think he just jumps to the only conclusion he has any matching information for. This must be the Demon. The fact that we are not the Exile from PoE 1 is immaterial to him.

    I think the whole demon of Atzoatl thing is directed at the exile, not because they were there, but because it's the best explanation Doryani can come up with.
    From his perspective, they've been trying to build Atzoatl and this random person with advanced powers turns up and starts wrecking shit. Suddenly a time portal opens up and a person appears and starts using advanced powers to wreck the town. I think he's just putting two and two together and thinking it must be the same person.
    Also it doubles as a fourth wall break for the player.

    Demon of Atzoatl is us, player (The Chosen Exile), from PoE 1.
    Most ppl will not notice but each Itemize Temple map will have a word that describe how this Temple came to be.
    In Armoury and Weapon Room, Alva will notice us something about Vaal is a peaceful tribe but why they form an Army? to protect them from "US".
    and also, the Vaal already mastered the art of using a "Map" long before we can use it, if you upgrade Cartographer room, Alva will surprise and said like lot of the place in these maps it's not even exist.
    I'm pretty sure one of the Itemize Temple map mention about Demon of Atzoatl.

    Really excellent interview, as expected! I'm glad KCN touched on how "divinity" works as expressed by Sin & others....that's gotta be one of my favorite elements of PoE's lore at this moment. I find it SO interesting and I hope they continue to lean into it!
    Oh my gosh if this "patron" is Zana....that might redeem some of the disappointments I've had with the story so far. It's been between "OK" and "Hey this is pretty good" with only a few moments being really memorable. Really hope they not only finish up the remaining acts quickly, and/or polish up the bits of Act 1 & 3 that are kind of lacking. I know it's a lot of work for probably 0.1% of players who actually care about the story but.....I really hope the success of EA allows them to be kind of extravagant and do it.
    "Don't do time travel, kids" LOL
    Funny when they mention "Oriana came from the east/the south" 'cause that was literally in my notes as I played through. XD
    What a GREAT question about how strong the Beast needs to be in order to make Sin slumber. I've wondered that as well but never really dug into it.
    COMPLETELY AGREE ABOUT THE JOURNAL!!! (and a Bestiary!!!)
    Funny that Tri is so quizzical about "Sump"....4 out of the 5 nearby maps when I first hit endgame was Sump. XD
    Anyway, fantastic interview, thanks for the great times. I could listen to you guys for 2 more hours!

    Regarding Geonor digging up someone, I don't think they're digging up anyone in particular but just bodies in general to feed the beast. There's a bunch of grave stones when you enter the fight that Geonor destroys landing, and the exact dialog (I just read it as I'm typing this) is "Yes, another one. He's under there!". If they were looking for a specific individual there wouldn't be 'another one'
    Also he'll then later say "Yes! More! Don't stop! The Beast hungers" and you can see it pull a corpse in half and eat it

    16:37 so, I’m writing my first video script on the real-world inspirations of POE cultures. The Ezomytes, despite their naming conventions being very Norse inspired, are very Celtic-coded, and due to that particular combination of things have a lot of cognates with the historical Scots/Picts. (Not to mention the fact that an “ezomyte blade” in poe1 is a claymore)
    Scotland was a hybrid of Gaelic and Scandinavian cultures for much of its history due to repeated settlement by Nordic cultures, and the rebellions against the Roman-cognate eternal empire fit in just as well.
    I imagine there’s a similar hybrid culture going on here. The Kalguurans likely brought the runes in early expansion. (Or maybe they just share an origin culture.)

    One theory of time travel is that of you go back to try to stop an event (the downfall of your own civilization for example) you will inevitably become the cause of the event.
    The player only becomes "the demon of Atzoatl" due to time travel that hasn't happened yet. Probably trying to stop Atziri in the past and creating a causal loop.
    All the time travel is what broke the world and started to allow other worldly things to seep inside.

    Okay, so journal can go core, but if it becomes mtx in some way, it should be a statue that turns into the speaking character and "speaks" the lines, or maybe even a vaal diorama thing, that shows an animated scene of lore related to certain key features of dialogue stuff, like events told to the character. Or maybe some sort of Story-Woman storytelling magic that makes smoke (or sand/dust) show images of the story being told. I mean, it's obviously better if it's just included in the base game, but maybe a special one just for the hideout could still be offered, on top of that.

    This exact thing took me out of Last Epoch right from the start.
    In my opinion, the best thing to do with time travel is what a popular Anime did a while ago, in which you can travel in time, but only forward not backwards.
    This limits writing and might be boring, but also stops the butterfly effect, time travel loop-y stuff and so on.
    Either way, it'll be interesting to see how the story develops when we get Act 4 - 6 in 2025 and sh** hits the fan 😲

    He has already experienced all these things. The Demon of Azoatl is when the Exiles from PoE 1 used Alvas portals to go back and raid Azoatl, kill Atziri, The Omnitect, Etc. The PoE2 character being the same entity is the most logical assumption for him to make. I would LOVE to talk about the lore with people. He obviously pulled something off to mitigate that incursion though, because Atziri is alive at the end of their History, so our raid could never have happened the way WE experienced it.
    I'd bet my bottom dollar that the roster of playable characters in PoE 2 ultimately become the Pantheon from PoE 1.
    EDIT: Also, us bringing Doryani back with us is why Malachai happened. Also also: This IS NOT WRAECLAST, Wraeclast is no more. Reality has literally melted and we're the only chance for anything to come out of it.
    EDITEDIT: We lose in the campaign. Kitava is reborn and unleashes all the terrors we were told of in the Karui tales. Reality is going to melt when the Eldritch entites get here. Spoiler: They are ALSO here specifically to kill The Beast.

    The cataclysm has always happened no? We're just dealing with the fallout so we can see the endgame. I'd expect it to get revamped with the other 3 acts releasing and maybe giving some nods to it that the last cataclysm was averted by a mysterious group. Basically the story referencing the EA endgame and because it's time travel shenanigans we're now not doing that but our new endgame some 4th wall stuff while also not completely invalidating what we're currently doing, would be a nice solution, albeit a little convoluted but that's what you get for doing timetravel

      Yeah I don't see current endgame both gameplay or lore to stick. Poe 1 has already reworked endgame lore and systems plenty.

    the architect of time basically spoils the ending. he says "a man has multiple fates. from 1 to 50 or a thousand but will only get to live through one."
    time is immutable and uncontained, everything happens at the same time. so basically the endgame we have right now is one of those fates. but when the game releases we will get to play through the "INTENDED" path/ FATE we were meant to play through.

    Regarding the Beast i have one theory. !st beast was massive but a bit formless, it fed itself on divinity. Oriana feed the Beast with dead Ezomyr who were gifted i think. Same in act 2, she want to feed beast with dead Maraketh. I have theory that this is forming a Beast to more human to fight humanity directly so there are no more gods. Also i think her "son" is the beast fully formed.

    The reason they have 1 death per map is to make people care more about their defences, kinda like semi HC mode.
    Big problem with this is that mobs are way too unbalanced currently, so people die a lot, even with high defences. On death explosions, juiced modifiers, atlas map progress, it all contributes on making the feature feel like shit. If I fail map, I just rather go different direction in atlas or run fast tier 1 map to just get over it, that is not great.

    Obviously something happens to Sin, which is why he isn't in the refuge. I think Sin will sacrifice himself. Ultimately, we are unable to stop the inevitable. That is why the end game is a refuge and you are fighting to push back the corruption. Just battling against the apocalypse before the stolen time runs out.

    No, Doryani is mistaking you for the Exile from POE-1. Atzoatl was raided in the distant past, when you meet Doryani in Act 3 of POE-2, this has already happened in his timeline. So, he assumes you are that person. That's the only thing that makes sense.

Shes not like, cartoonishly evil, or evil for the sake of being evil either imo, but she doesnt have many real ethics and seems to have a superiority complex where the main people of note to her are pretty much just other witches and even then she usually expresses disappointment in her "sisters".

    Gonna say the witch feels a bit over the top crazy compared to PoE 1's witch who's VA is rumored to have left for religion. "It's not time to kill them all, yet." when you press an ability in town is still funny. Written a bit like Harley Quinn I think.
    Unlike PoE1 not all lore texts keep playing when you walk away. Oversight? I thought that was a good idea.

    The biggest surprise and pretty much elephant in the room is the fact that, despite their promises, they HAVEN'T improved story presentation at all. It's literally same dialogs as in PoE1. Amazing bosses and boss-related scenes definitely help, but they still need more in-engine short cutscenes to picque players' interest, now that the in-game graphics are good enough (although not too stellar - d4 models are more sophisticated, even though in terms of skill effects PoE2 is way ahead). Not to mention, the cinematic didn't even play in the beginning of PoE2 beta - either it's not supposed to be an intro, or it's a terrible oversight?
    I still loved the campaign, and I never liked PoE1 campaign - maybe because I've played through all iterations since 2012, but overall the pacing and story in PoE1 was terrible in my eyes. PoE2 feels better already, with adequate gray morality, cool characters and amazing environmental storytelling. The caravan alone is one of the best set pieces ever, I'm really envious of $480 supporters who have the hideout lol.

  • @jdawglmao

    Streamer like you got paid to hype the game towards us. It's no near it was advertised in countless interviews.
    - Boring endgame
    - Repetitive maps
    - Tideous grinding
    - Obsolete on-death XP punishment
    - Cafting is just a theory; everyone just buys what they need
    - Massive bugs, visual glitches, disconnects
    - Lack of server performance
    - Group mapping is the only way of leveling
    - Missing 99.9% of MTX from PoE 1
    - Game is barily playable in 1080p
    - 4K 120Hz? I can offer you 2 fps
    - In-game shop's MTX are too expensive
    - Copy/Paste low effort armor MTX with 2005 visuals
    - Massive currency inflation
    - Console experience is even worse
    Was there any negative streamer feedback from pre-testing the game? Just a single one from the above?? No. Because they were told to hold on their critics after the game launched and made money.
    PoE 1 Veterans get mad because it's not even close to the original experience. Casual players get frustrated because 3 hours of grinding laggy maps is worth nothing when you just die once.
    And every critic from players like myself is treated the same way: "Bro, chill. It's early access man. What do you expect? The game will be free eventually."
    The official forums are flooded with complaints, feedback, bug reports and opinions. Instead of begging us to give you our money to see you actually enjoying the game, and in return posting the same nonsensical build showcase video, you should stand your ground and talk about the real problems.
    You streamer people have probably forgotten this, but here's a friendly reminder: you're the player's representative, not the companies strategic marketing ambassador.
    If I invest time and money, I want something in return. In this case I can't enjoy playing because the game lacks in performance. And I can't progress because if I only make one mistake within two hours of grinding T15 maps and die, I'll be put back at the start of my XP bar.

    Noodle still has some weird, inexplicable misconceptions about the atlas. We know that the maps, at least the ones we enter in PoE1, are part of an infinite land of dreams. The Atlas is the part of it that the Shaper managed to map out, but he didn't create it. We know (and she explicitly knows, she did a video about it!) that our favorite blue summoner guys are from out beyond the known edges of the atlas, and they aren't from anywhere near as far away as the Eater and the Exarch, who are minor components of much larger entities, whose influence even touches Wraeclast (There is a reason that the Exarch and Innocence both use the same descry). The Atlas is not some tiny pocket dimension that someone created.
    Meanwhile, some things we know happened chronologically:
    Kalandra arrives on Wraeclast
    The titans exist (PoE2... implies they may have been wiped out by Breachlords?)
    The precursor civilization
    Abyss (May not be important)
    Vaal Empire
    Eternal Empire
    The Godslayer's Rampage
