We recently took some time to chat with streamer and long time player Kripparrian, to find out some of his favourite Path of Exile memories and what his life is like outside of gaming!

Hi Kripparrian, thanks so much for joining us for this interview! For those who may not be familiar with you yet, can you please introduce yourself?

Hey there! I'm Kripp, and I've been playing video games all of my life, starting from when I was 3 years old. I've been fortunate enough to be able to make a living off of it since 2012, and luckily Path of Exile has been part of my gaming routine for most of those years.

Hi Velyna, thank you for taking part in the interview! Please introduce yourself.

Hey I'm Velyna or Vel, a big time gamer from Ontario Canada.

When did you first get into Path of Exile?

It was 9 years ago now. I was looking for a new ARPG to play and it was either PoE's closed beta or continue with Diablo 3, I chose the former and have been firmly indoctrinated ever since.

What one thing caught your attention in the beginning and what one thing kept you coming back?

The skill tree. I have never seen anything like it and it makes me feel like the build possibilities are endless.
