You cannot interact with characters on other leagues at all.

|
| What is the difference between the "leagues" -- is it simply like being on different servers? |

For those of you thinking of playing this, I highly recommend starting on hardcore. When your hardcore char dies, he gets put into the non-hardcore league.
This adds quite a bit of frisson to the experience of playing it, especially for the first time in my opinion.
That... is a really interesting take on what hardcore means...
I imagine some will hate it, but in some ways, it gives the benefit of both.

There's no targeted release date, and when there is, it will just be a marketing push with a bigger update (like another act). They plan on having a lot of updates now and after release. There's going to be another patch next week that adds another skill: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e5toCbb-vn4
Release really won't be any different. If you start playing now, you'll get to keep all your characters, loot, and currency. Balancing will always be on the table as they add more skills, supports, and add to the passive tree.
None of this should stop you from playing, it's a great action RPG. Diablo 3 and Torchlight 2 just couldn't hold my interest, but PoE does. |

I suppose it might, though these major patches have been happening only once per month, with much smaller ones fixing bugs in between. However, after they're "finished" with the core systems, they'll likely move on to regularly adding further content and such. They have to, because improving the game is what keeps people interested and spending money.
Right, I understand, but that's not likely to happen with such frequency.

Mostly it's that my internet connection is terribly slow, and they seem to patch pretty often. I hate wanting to go play a game, then see that I have another 500MB patch to download (which for me takes hours.)
I'm just kinda hoping that once they go "final" (for lack of a better word), the frequent patching might slow down a bit.

| Is there something specific you think will happen when it does that you are waiting for? The last character wipe was when it went open beta, so there's not really a good reason to not be playing it now. |

Has there been any news yet on when this goes out of Beta?

Looks like they buffed the crap out of the duelist (and physical damage skills in general)! As the owner of a level 46 one that was struggling in the latter stages of Act 2 Cruel, color me pleased. The new fire spray skill sounds really cool, too.
Oh, and since they changed one of the very first nodes for the duelist, it refunded ALL of my passive points, so I could rebuild it again to take advantage of the changes.

Since when does an action RPG get the MMORPG moniker? A persistent world doesn't automatically make it a MMORPG, just like GGG states here:

The world's not persistent. The only persistent things are your character and it's items. Everything is randomized. It's as much a mmo as Diablo 2. |

| Zomg. Adding skills and improving the skill effects. This is pretty much the only thing, other than making monster's deaths more satisfying , that keeps the game from being amazing. |
