Happy New Year, Everyone! We hope you've had a great time since the holiday season took off. Hopefully, the rest of the holidays treats you well too! With the Christmas lull in effect we had tons of time to settle into Path of Exile 2's beta and theory-craft new ideas, progress on old ones, and do a little daydreaming while we're at it. We're looking forward to the next wave of GGG patch notes! That's for your support each and every week! You rock!

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! We're now two weeks into Path of Exile 2's Early Access/Beta and GGG has been going strong on patches and improvements, and the community is flying high with non-stop feedback. It's been a blast being a part of Early Access (and infuriating) as we all keep trucking towards the eventual goal of balance. Thanks for all of your support each and every week and we hope you have a wonderful holiday season.

Path of Exile 2! The world has now had a full week of Early Access and we have both taken full advantage. We've "cleared" our calendars and have been playing it non-stop. This week, like all weeks, but especially this week, we couldn't stop talking about our experiences, hopes, and build(s). It's an exciting time to be in Path of Exile Land! Hopefully, GGG is feeling the same. Thanks for listening each and every week! We love being a part of your weekly routine. Have fun with PoE and may the RNG be with you.

Path of Exile 2 is finally here! The masses are finally able to play! Who cares if it's Early Access, the fine-tuning will come. For now, we get the next iteration of GGG's vision in the comfort of our homes. In episode 270, we obviously talk about our Day 1 launch experiences for PoE 2's EA and, well, that's it! You're all the best and we hope you had a great "league" launch! Thanks for listening!

Episode 269 is the last episode of the Path of Exile 1 era! Next week we'll be playing Path of Exile 2's Early Access and this week was non-stop hype. GGG is in the final stages of dotting their "I"s and crossing their "T"s but for us, even while we're in meetings, we can't stop thinking that PoE 2 is just around the corner. You've been amazing to us through this great Path of Exile 1 journey. We can't thank you enough! We're looking forward to starting this new journey with you of Path of Exile 2! Love ya!

With the conclusion of GGG's biggest announcement ever (arguably), we can't handle talking about anything else! If only we had more time! Episode 268 of Forever Exiled takes you through all our hype and reservations regarding the upcoming Path of Exile sequel (which we'll all be able to access in just a couple of weeks). Reveals are the best and GGG came out swinging! Thanks for joining us this week. It's always a pleasure to hang out.

The guilt! The shame! But not in GGG Land! This week, in episode 267, we discuss both big news articles that hit the Path of Exile fanbase this week. Big news, big moves, and closet confessions. The next few weeks are going to be big! Thank-you to all of our listeners throughout the years for helping us reach a combined total of 500 episodes! Making us a part of your weekly routine is humbling and mind-blowing. We are honoured to be a part of it. We wish you the best in the coming weeks to the PoE 2 announcement, the beta, and the next 500 episodes! Love ya!

This week, in Forever Exiled's 266th episode, we have just as much fun as we do in all of our other episodes. Delays can't slow us down! GGG came out with a couple of teasers for Path of Exile 2, along with releasing their 2nd 3.25 Settlers of Kalguur league. Even when there's nothing PoE to talk about, there's always something PoE to talk about. Oswald's got us daydreaming and the Mercenary has us theory-crafting. Thank you for all of your faithful support each and every week. It's an honour being in your weekly routines. Love ya!

As disappointing as a delay for anything you're excited for can be, GGG gave fans a lot to take in and talk about this week. We're no different than any other fans of Path of Exile so we delve into PoE 2's delay, 3.25 Settlers of Kalguur "expansion", and all fun assumptions in between. Hopefully you're all having a great week and thanks for turning on our show again. We love your faces.
