He should mouseover the X Fire graph sometime. It says 'hours' and not 'players'.

So the graph doesn't show that Diablo 3 gained more players, it shows that the players of Diablo 3 are playing more right now.

Diablo 3 has 1,433 players that use X fire. These player play 4,207 Hours Per Day on average. So one of the D3 players that use X fire plays 2,94 hours per day on average.

Path of Exile has 202 players that use x fire. These players play 723 hours per day on average.
So one of the Path of Exile players that use X fire plays 3,58 hours per day on average.


Don't know about you, but for me this looks like PoE players are happier with their game.

yep

absolutely ...

I knew we could come to an agreement.

Was nice having this conversation with you.

The Thread can be closed now. :D

Have you seen the numbers of viewers on Twitch for D3 and POE?

D3 usually has 5-10x the amount of viewers.

That's gotta count for something.

Viewers on twitch mean nothing.

If it proves anything at all, it shows that people would rather watch D3 than play it. And what does that say about the game?

No, it proves that more people are playing it than POE. Also, with under 300 viewers at peak time, what does that tell you about POE?

well I told them poe fanboys here that, once kripp quits streaming poe, the game would die.
and Wraeclastian is right. The current Twitch numbers clearly show that poe is pretty much dead...

And yes, the D3 numbers on Twitch are way higher ... and even on Reddit there seems to be much more discussion going on.

Anyway ... I dont like the way PoE changed within one year. I dont like several decisions that GGG made. And the current Razor deal just proofs that i am not wrong. GGG is heading the wrong way.

poe really was a bad ass game one year back .... GGG seems to lost track. they're clearly not developing the game they want anymore, but rather desperateldy trying to do something to not lose more players and at the same time they try to find alternative ways to finance this game. obviously the mtx and supporter packs are not enough any more ...

thats why i predect here and now that poe will be dead in one year from now ... and i mean DEAD while diablo3 will still be played by millions ...

I'm marking a calendar date of September 1, 2014, and saving the link to the above post. Seeya next year! =^[.]^=

yep please do that .. good idea ;)

So you claim D3 is superior eh?

Then go play it. Go enjoy your endless skill tree combinations, your challenging content, and a developer that gives a damn.

Oh wait.

But seriously, if it's so great then go play it. Get off twitch and these forums and go play it.
