Path of Exile is a game about meeting lots of monsters and then punching out all their blood so you can steal their stuff. As action RPGs go, it's great, and I called it things like "compulsive" and "exceptionally generous" in our Path of Exile review . When people say things like "all free-to-play games are poo" I like to materialise, wave an arm in Path of Exile's direction and whisper "look! All the free blood-punching you could ever need!" and then vanish in a puff of smoke.
For those already hooked on Path of Exile, good news. There's going to be more of it according to a post on the Path of Exile site .
What's in the expansion? Only Grinding Gear know, sadly, but they have revealed a step-by-step guide to how they're going to tease the patch in the coming weeks.

Look, a load of unique items are getting 3D art , and waypoints now glow when tagged !
