Forever Exiled

A D5 announcement for a product 3 years away? Is GGG scaring Blizzard with Path of Exile 2? We get there, eventually. Thanks for listening to episode 363! You're the best!
In Episode 363 of Forever Exiled, Justin and Tyler discuss whether Grinding Gear Games and Path of Exile 2 are putting pressure on Blizzard and the Diablo franchise. With a reported Diablo 5 release still years away, they compare the paths taken by GGG and Blizzard, the rivalry between Path of Exile and Diablo, and why competition between major action RPGs can ultimately benefit players.
The conversation also digs into Path of Exile 2 build diversity, minion theorycrafting, Smith of Kitava, temporary zombies, Skeleton Brutes, power charges, Minion Instability, curses, boss damage and survivability. They share their frustrations with PoE 2’s Atlas progression, campaign length and endgame systems, along with thoughts on Ritual, Abyss, Breach, Expedition and other league mechanics inherited from Path of Exile 1.
Are GGG and Path of Exile 2 genuinely scaring Blizzard, or is Diablo 5 simply following Blizzard’s existing development cycle? Join us for another relaxed, honest and occasionally distracted conversation about PoE 1, PoE 2, Diablo, ARPG design and the games we cannot stop theorycrafting.

Fiddle faddle fayyyyy...
We don't care if it ends up plainnnnn...
We just want it to be fun. Hooray!
Hopefully you're enjoying GGG''s Path of Exile 2's 0.5.5! Or PoE 1! Thanks for listening to episode 362! Love ya! 
In Episode 362 of Forever Exiled, we dig into the Path of Exile 2 endgame changes introduced with patch 0.5.5, including the new Atlas progression system and what it means for player choice. Does earning enough points to eventually fill the entire Atlas passive tree make progression feel rewarding, or does it remove the customization that makes Path of Exile’s endgame so compelling?
We compare the PoE 2 Atlas with Path of Exile 1’s Atlas passive trees, alternate tree loadouts, scarabs and personalized farming strategies. We also discuss what keeps us returning for a new league, what makes an endgame worth grinding and why PoE 2 still has work to do before its full release.

0.5.5 is out this week. Is it a Path of Exile league? Is it a PoE event? Who cares! Fresh economy means, "Let's try again!" With summer now coming to a close and GGG's special Dec. 11th closer than it seems, there doesn't seem like a better time to chat Path with a bud. Thanks for hanging out for episode 360!

We're excited for the GGG's new Dec. 11 (2026) FULL launch of Path of Exile 2! As we wrap up our PoE 1 private league this week, it's tough to not think about what's next! With the unintentionally empty announcements for 0.5.5, we start looking forward to what November and December will bring. Thanks for taking the time to hang with us this week!
