How do you feel Guild Wars 2 stealing PoE?

The new Guild Wars 2 expansion is called Path of Fire and looks awful similiar to PoE text logo, how you feel about it? Will it make PoE get more publicity or is it a ripoff?

I don't share your opinion of the new Guild Wars 2 logo.

I'm not 'Sarno' on Discord. I don't know who that is.
Doesn't look the same.

Given how much PoE owes to Guild Wars 1...yeah, this is nothing.

Also, agreed with the above. No resemblance. Now if you want to talk resemblance between games, you might want to check out a little title called Diablo 2. The similarities with PoE are uncanny. It's almost as if Blizzard had a time machine and stole all the ideas from GGG. It's the only explanation, really.


I found out where GGG got inspiration from for the Kitava fight

Holy... it even uses the same attacks as Kitava!
And worst change is putting almost all bosses in new version of maps into fucking small areas, where you can't kite well or dodge stuff. What a terrible idiot invented that I want say to him: dude flick you, seriously flick you very much.
How is that even close to a resemblance?

Well, for starters, there are English letters on that logo. Exact same alphabet as in FoO logo.

I can't think of anything else, sorry.

Hard to see a close resemblance for me. Besides, even if, why would I care?

@Kitava fight: That is hilarious. Looks like it is more fun though, and you can actually dodge the attacks without being a 12year old with ADHD.

Didn't there also was a Kitava-fight in World of Warcraft: Wrath of lich king at U... something raid. You needed to hit his arms/hands then head. He did similar attacks to kitava and was boss that was from abyss (outside ground)


Note: The similiarities isn't the gameplay but in the text/logo. So if I make a game and call it Skyrim it's a resemblence of Elder Scrolls: Skyrim. If I make a phone and call it iBuddy it's a resemblence of iPhone even tho im not Apple if I make a OS and call it Windows L33t its a resemblence of Windows 10. etc.
