Greetings Gamers! Today we'll be taking a look at the very cool origin story of the company Grinding Gear Games and their fantastic game, Path of Exile. I'll break down the top 3 ingredients I think allowed for their continued success and we'll wrap it up with some Path of Exile 2 history/hype!
This is the result of weeks of internet sleuthing to find some of these old clips and pictures etc. I hope it does the company and the team any justice and that you all enjoy this piece of nostalgia, I thoroughly enjoyed putting it together :)
Thanks for watching! Don't forget to like, subscribe, and let me know how I can improve.
