    Likely gonna skip launch and come back in a week or two when things are calmer, though I’m absolutely also going to sign in on launch to try and snag some character names asssuming they never get cleared like poe1
    All I ever wanted was the truth. Remember those words as you read the ones that follow. I never set out to topple my father's kingdom of lies from a sense of misplaced pride. I never wanted to bleed the species to its marrow, reaving half the galaxy clean of human life in this bitter crusade. I never desired any of this, though I know the reasons for which it must be done. But all I ever wanted was the truth.

    Nice, finally installed and ready to go. I thought they said they weren't going to support upscalers, but it looks like it supports the full suite of them including XESS. I was worried about that bit, phew.

    That was me the last few leagues of PoE. After the campaign, the amount of stuff you can do felt so overwhelming to me I just didn't bother

    I got through it once when it originally launched in whatever year

    Tried 4-5 times since for leagues and have same feeling as you

    I respect the game and devs more than most other devs, but its a wildly overrated game and the combat is dumb

    POE 2 actually looking legit and fixing all the issues of the first

    Was pretty positive that i did not reach the threshold required to get sent a free key but I searched my spam folders anyways and there it was, sent 8 days ago.

    Ive listened to dev talks but otherwise completely avoided any footage of actual gameplay.This feels like christmas eve. I can't wait to lock in and just finally see the game.

    PSA: If you try to start the client on PC/Steam, it will start a little patch download before launch.

    On console, it also patches when you start up the app.

    There's been two patches since I pre-loaded this morning, so it's probably a good idea to be prepared for more.

    Guys since release I'm using standalone client for PoE 1 because when I started playing there wasn't steam version.

    Now for PoE 2 I'm not sure if I should stick to standalone client or get it on steam. Are there some cons/pros to either or theres basically no difference? I'm thinking about steam version mostly for time played statistics and thats it.

    I tried to claim key for steam and instead Claim key button I see now:

    Sorry, these keys are currently unavailable. Please check back soon!
    Did they had limited steam keys? I don't understand. Ubisoft key is still ready to claim.

    No. This is some weird thing you are experiencing. I have not seen this anywhere and if it was the case to be common, everyone would be talking about it.

    Ok alot of people have this problem and theres few GGG responses about this. It looks they did not expected so many key purchases and run out of them. They have to get alot more and this takes time:

    Hi there,

    We are aware of the issues regarding Steam keys not being claimable at the moment and are working to get this resolved as soon as we can. We recommend that you continue to check your Early Access page periodically to see if the Steam client key has been added back.

    As a temporary measure, players who have been unable to claim Steam client keys still have the option to Download the Standalone client until this is resolved. We do apologize for the inconvenience caused.

    Is this on the website or Steam?

    Why? I'm assuming he saw diablo 4 sales right? It sold like hot cakes and its average. Have some faith in yourselves

    im gonna download the cilent just in case steam does take awhile. Que's I can handle its whatever, popular game. Not having enough keys is just dumb though

    How is it possible to run out of Steam keys? I don't understand how this can happen.

    I know this has happened to other games. I don't know the exact details but my understanding is that the publisher/developer (and retailer in this case) has to request keys from Steam, and sometimes they request too few.

    They would presumably be looking at there own metrics for POE which are a fraction of the numbers D4’s launch got even on there biggest leagues.

I never wanted to bleed the species to its marrow, reaving half the galaxy clean of human life in this bitter crusade.

    Yeah sure but this is poe 2 not poe 1.

    The matrix reloaded movie broke records after the first matrix film. Would be weird to not assume growth after becoming a hit with the first outing
