Diablo 4 pulling the same numbers as PoE 1
|
Diablo IV is the worst game in the series, even worse than the crap that was Diablo III, as if it has 12 million players in all its seasons, the Diablo saga died with Diablo II and Blizzard North

That's crazy... how the mighty Diablo franchise has fallen.
Never thought D4 wouldn't have 10times the player numbers than PoE, but here we are. Oh u think that's bad for PoE? Actually it's the opposite. |

Comparing the player base of Poe to Diablo 4? What a joke. Diablo has a much bigger marketing budget and investing millions on dollars in it. The fact that Poe has the same player base as Diablo 4 after almost 3 weeks in the league is a good thing for us Poe fanboys

" Not insane at all? Bigger game, bigger studio, larger reputation, richer history. Sum? A bigger IP, easy as that. There are TONS of casual Andys out there, with several children, wives and a handful of jobs that prefer Diablo over PoE 1. Hell, many of them prefer Diablo over PoE 2. The only right thing to do here, is of course to do what's promised; support both games. /thread Bring me some coffee and I'll bring you a smile.

What an interesting take on stats :)
So PoE 2 had an average of 14k in the last 30 days, does that mean GGG should take it offline? After all, PoE had an average of 56k for the same period. Do we consider that PoE 2 has only a single option for all global players unlike PoE which has a separate realm for China, so the stats are already not really comparing apples with apples. Quick, somebody inform the world of business that it is only ever viable to support one product at a time and that the rest are pointless! Only one model of phone, no more than one model of car per manufacturer, just a single running shoe. OMG, all this waste and pointless activity that nobody realised until this outstanding treatise on economic efficiency! Or, and just consider this for a moment, there's plenty of resources available and plenty of games for everyone to enjoy. |

" What a bad take on this whole thing. Too... Logical. You should put on your biased "PoE forum" glasses and try again; a little bit more illogical this time around. I'll be waiting. Bring me some coffee and I'll bring you a smile.

Wait do most POE players use steam to play?
I still use stand alone client and so do my friends lol.... (Cant be showing myself when i WFH). |
|
"Yes. The majority plays through Steam. We're talking about 65%+ Steam / 35% Standalone + Console. |

Diablo has much bigger fanbase.
Meanwhile with the current number for poe 2, as well as not so many people return after the first "expansion", GGG should worry about spent money on poe 2, or just kill it. This is the start of forum signature: I am not a GGG employee. About the username: Did you know Kowloon Gundam is made in Neo Hong Kong?
quote from the first page: "Please post one thread per issue, and check the forum for similar posts first" This is the end of forum signature |

"Nah. PoE 2 generates more revenue while being an unfinished product. It's not even close. Last edited by Crîmnor#4334 on Jul 5, 2025, 1:38:26 AM
