rpad|13 years ago|Grinding Gear Games

RPad.TV met up with Grinding Gear Games lead programmer Jonathan Rogers to talk about the upcoming action-RPG Path of Exile. The game takes pieces from Diablo II, Magic: The Gathering, Final Fantasy VII, and Final Fantasy X, blends them all together, and cranks the depth to 11. Rogers talks about the gameapos;s influences, the upgrade system, the character skill tree, why the company decided against using in-game currency, and the companyapos;s unique Kickstarter-like approach to funding.
