GGG's One and Only, Octavian!

Welcome back, Octavian! It's episode 207 and we're so pleased to have Octavian back for another interview! This time around, he's working Quality Assurance at GGG and we couldn't wait to pepper him with questions regarding his career transition, new country, new place of employment, working QA on two games...and he was even willing to tackle some Path of Exile 2 questions for us! We always love having him the show and we're sure you do/will too! Thanks for joining us again, Octavian! And, thanks...

Is TotA for You?

We're back! We'll we never actually left or anything, but we got back to our usual schedule today...kinda. Not really. But we got to talk about relevant subjects from the last two weeks of Path of Exile land! We ended up, as usual, going completely off topic from the .1 patch subjects, discussed Trails (Trials) of the Ancients (Ancestors) a ton, got back into Patch Land, got off topic again...it was so good we had to push content to 208. (Wait, this is 206. Pushing to 208? Whaaaaat?) We always h...

We Went to PaxWest to Visit with GGG!

Screw the demo! We drove down to Seattle's PaxWest to visit with GGG employees and be nerdy! It was quite the trip and well worth while! The employees were happy to give fans their time, and loved talking about their games and experiences. We met a whole handful of employees, including the big wigs, and gleaned a lot of new info about both PoE 1 and 2 that we didn't already know! We have so much to say about the experience that the 3.22.1 patch will be discussed next week! Thanks for all of your...

Tranquil Trials

3.22 Trials of the Ancestors has now been out for 2 weeks and it seems that Path of Exile is almost happy with the balance of the game and new league mechanic. With only a few more gameplay changes in the works, GGG is overseas giving us more Path of Exile 2 teasers about the Druid and further PoE2 designs. We both had loaded Path of Exile weeks this week, along with a change of heart. Thanks for always hanging out with us as we discuss our favourite game. You make this happen! Forever Exiled In...

Week 1 of 3.22's Trials of the Ancestors!

What a week! So many changes and bug fixes for 3.22! We've had lots of things drive us bonkers, but we've also had so much fun! The new Atlas Passive Tree options, new Ascendancies, the Trials of the Ancestors gameplay, tattoos...it's been a really fun week (though, we are looking forward to some more improvements). Path of Exile and GGG have a lot on their hands with this league and we're excited to see where they go with it! Thanks for your listens each week! You're fantastic! Forever Exiled I...

3.22 Trials of the Ancestors Launch Day!

(I really wanted to put Trails of the Ancients in the title, but you know...) 3.22 Trials of the Ancestors is out! GGG's league that took 5 or 6 months to "fine-tune" is finally ready to go. The auto-bot league has begun and is sure to get better and better! Pull up a chair and drink and join us as we chat about our first foray into the new league. Thanks so much for your listens each week! 202 episodes is all thanks to you ❤️ Forever Exiled Info: www.foreverexiled.com Patreon Twitter @ForeverEx...

3.22's Trials of the Ancestors Patch Notes! Feat. BK!

It's time for another Patch Notes! This time, we have Brittleknee with us! It's been a while since our last league launch, longer than we're used to, and so there's tons of content to get to! 3.22's Trials of the Ancestors is one week away and GGG has given us lots to chat about! Even more so with PoE2's future in the distant horizon. Some of the patch notes are already old news because of ExileCon, but there's obviously enough new news that we could give you a nice long episode 😉. Thanks for jo...

ExileCon Overflow

There's still, so much to unpack from ExileCon 2023 that we'll likely be referring to it until its release date. Until then, it's uber nerd time! With GGG coming back to work on their ExileCon YouTube channel and 3.22's Trail of the Ancestors, we have lots of time to go over some of the conversations we've had with the community since the convention. Hopefully, you're enjoying your last week or two of 3.21's Crucible, or playing Path of Exile in Standard; 3.22 is just around the corner! Patch No...

ExileCon 2023 is HERE!

The new updates are finally here! There's been a long silence about Path of Exile 2 and it's finally time for some more reveals! There's so much to talk about with both the future of PoE 1 and the dream of PoE 2. 3.22's Trial of the Ancestors, ascendancy reworks, Sanctum going core...there's so much coming down the pipeline that we've been given stuff to talk about for a year to come. For those that went to the convention we hope you had a wonderful time. For those that watched the convention fr...

ExileCon 2 is Only One Week Away!

Oh my goodness! ExileCon 2 is only one week away! Everything that we have been questioning and excited for is just around the corner! GGG has been working so hard and non-stop to make Path of Exile 2 the best game they could make for us. With only one week to go until we have all the news that we've been speculating about, we have almost no time left to daydream! Have a great convention whether you are going to New Zealand or watching the broadcast like us. You rock, and thanks so much for liste...

All Hands on Deck!

Welcome Diablo 4 players! Path of Exile welcomes you with open arms. You have two weeks to go until GGG makes some major announcements for the future of this game! 3.21's Crucible is almost done with "the special" 3.22 just around the river bend! We here at Forever Exiled can't wait for the next two weeks to pass as we're SO stoked, just like you all are for the news of what's to come. Thanks for the listens! We're almost there!

Unintentional Expectations

Don't hate us, but episode 196 of Forever Exiled is loaded with...well...unintentional expectations. GGG had an unintentionally big post this week regarding the dates of 3.22's league launch and what's to come before ExileCon 2. We also talked lots about Path of Exile 2 itself. It was a juicy episode thanks to GGG and we can't wait for ExileCon 2! Thanks as always for your listens and we can't wait to hear what you think! See you next week!

Spiritually Aiding Expectations

We're 4 weeks away from ExileCon 2 and we're still just as excited and baffled for what's to come as we were last week. GGG put out no trailers this week 😦 but that never stops supernerds like ourselves from conversation! Path of Exile is officially in "overtime" now and Crucible, well, who knows how it's doing numbers-wise, but it's a strong league and we hope you're enjoying it. Downtime is the best time for theory-crafting and we put it to good use this week! Thanks for listening to Episode 1...

What on Earth is After ExileCon 2!?

3.21's Crucible still out but all people are talking about is Path of Exile 2. This week, GGG's Bex was busy on Twitter setting expectations, and creating more questions, for their upcoming conference and timetable afterwards. Like any self-respecting busybodies, we take to overanalyzing the tweets and attempt to come up with some new facts 😉. Episode 194 of Forever Exiled is lots of unscripted fun. It's always a pleasure to have you with us. Thanks for tuning in each week! We love ❤️ your faces...

Hands On Diablo IV

Today in Path of Exile (2) news 😉, we dissect the latest (2nd) PoE 2 teaser trailer released in 2023, GGG's posts regarding mechanics and decorations, annnnnd Justin bought/played Diablo 4. Yes, 3.21 Crucible is still out, but there's so much to talk about each week that Crucible is kind of getting the short end of the stick. It's always more fun to discuss such speculation and comparisons with friends. Thanks for pulling up a chair and being with us each week! We love your faces! Forever Exiled...

Welcome to Ngamakanui

In episode 192 of Forever Exiled, we go all over the map; from Co-op to lore to build hopping...and most definitely Path of Exile 2. GGG released the Ngamakanui teaser trailer at Summer Game Fest this past week and that one minute gameplay video of PoE 2 gave us a whole episode's worth of content to discuss. So, even though there's still 6 weeks left in the 3.21 Crucible league, we're very much looking to the future in this week's episode. Pull up and chair and a drink and join in! We love havin...

I Like It, but Not a Lot...I Don't Like It

Our 3.21 Crucible private league came to an end this week and it was full of death, fun, and laughs. Thanks to everyone that played! We hope you died lots 😉 . Path of Exile and GGG had a quite week this week, which as you know, means nothing to us cause there's always good stuff to discuss. Tyler's PL progress surprised us, Diablo 4 is coming out this week, along with our hopes and dreams for PoE (2) are always enough to fuel conversation. (We almost didn't talk about Zombies.) Thanks so much fo...

Private League Shenanigans

Stoopid Hardcore! 😉 It's fun to suck with friends...at a game, sickos. This week, we commiserate over our dumb hardcore deaths as we keep on trucking, and loving, our Forever Exiled private league (the 3.21 Crucible version). Path of Exile/GGG had a slow week when it comes to announcements so we had lots of time to chat about how lame really good players are, and how awesome it is when players like us die lots. The HC private leagues we do are always very exciting for us as it's so great to see ...

Back Together Again!

We can't tell you how great it is to hang out with buds after a long week of work or theory-crafting (work is for chumps 😉). GGG had a slow announcement week this week which gave us an opportunity to go all Willie-nilly with the show notes and just chat. Don't worry, we squeezed in some Path of Exile 3.21 Crucible chit-chat on this "lawn-only" podcast. Though we had a lot of fun this episode (I guess we always do ❤️ ), we wanted to give a shout out to our community and thank you for all of your ...

We're Growing Hordes (and Seeds)!

It's that most wonderful time of the year, where we get to do lawn and Path of Exile stuff in the same week! It's glorious! GGG had a slow week in terms of posts/announcements...which never matters to us. From Growing Hordes to Ascendancies, 3.21's Crucible still has us locked in. Yet, with all posts/fingers pointing to ExileCon 2, our minds start day dreaming as to what's down the pipeline. Thanks so much for spending time with us this week! Happy Mother's Day to all you mothers out there! Fore...

Exiled Diablos

In episode 187, we get going and just can't stop. GGG pumped out their huge 3.21.1 patch, along with slew of hot fixes. Not only is there tons to talk about regarding that patch but we had tons to say relating to our weeks in Path of Exile Land too. Crucible has kept us both in-game for a month straight! So obviously, that brings us to Diablo 4 😉 . We had a great time this episode (as we always do) and it's always great when you pull up a chair and hangout with us. Thanks for listening! We appre...

Crucible EXPLOSIONS?

It's episode 186 of Forever Exiled! We're a good ways into Crucible now and there's still so much to do! Tyler's theory-crafting (daydreaming) while playing the Reaper and Justin's on his 3rd high 90s character. There's always something new to discuss in Path of Exile Land, and as usual, it leads us down the rabbit hole a bit ;). Thanks for your listens and support each week. We love what we do and we love having you with us! (Oh right! Did you know that Path of Exile is in league 3.21, which is...

PoE in Bed

We're two weeks into 3.21's Crucible and the Forever Exiled community is playing the league strong. Our general chat (#2121) is nice and active and our Discord just keeps on trucking. GGG has come out with lots of fixes/changes since launch; some of which came almost too late for some. The great thing about Path of Exile is that no matter what build mood you're in, or what mechanic you feel like, there's something to scratch that itch. Hopefully, everyone is having a great 3.21! Thanks for liste...

Soul Eating League Start

We have a week under our belt! Path of Exile's 3.21 Crucible has gone under the knife a bit since it was released a week ago and so there's tons to chat about. Honestly, there would have been tons to talk about without the changes as GGG's league starts are always exciting! So, basically, we didn't get to talk about anything we planned for because of the changes 😉 . Don't worry, even though this is a "first week" episode, we're just as all over the place as usual. We know you love it! Thanks for...
