First of all, your numbers are completely random and nowhere near the truth. What are they even supposed to stand for? At release there were something like 70k concurrent players if I remember correctly. 1 month has since passed and steam still peaks at 20k+ every day. That doesn't even count for the people not using steam. And claiming 40k is nothing for an indie company...I don't even know what to say.

when they showed the server stability changes, it was 30-40 k players, and thats all their servers, not xfire only or whatever.

As for the rest of your replies and the other guys too, all I will say: (1) lol @ me being blizzard employee, that all you got to say? (2) you know I speak the truth, and the truth hurts. POE needs some serious solo play overhaul.

Because mindless grinding in the hopes of an exalt or mirror, or having to go path of life nodes / ES with a 1350 passive tree, no matter what class you pick, is complex. lmfao

First page: Solo Selfound in PoE only works with Dom. Maps can't be done.

uhu. That's why my Ranger farms 66-68 maps and is 100% selffound. Tell me more please.

I play solo 95% of the time and I think solo is perfectly fine.
Judging by your posts PoE isn't the right game for you anyway, so I don't see a problem in you leaving. Have fun with RoS.

POE is dead. They keep turning it into an MMO, and shitting relentlessly on solo play. Since release its been nothing but nerf nerf nerf. Cleave, sporker, RF, auras, etc. The skill tree is still too limited, we need at least an extra point every other level. The self found solo player simply cant compete with no lifers, rmters, or group players. Not everyone can play 24/7 or RMT a ton of exalts, dear GGG.

Fanboys gonna fanboy, and call me and others stating this doomsayers and naysayers and haters. The truth is really in front of your eyes, POE has <40k players from the 250k since release. Ouch. 40k players is really nothing, not that 250k was a lot.

Meanwhile, ROS is the best thing since LOD. Gone RMAH, all the loot drops are sick, you can enchant a 'shitty' drop, skills and legendary item buffs are absolutely mindblowing, the combat and graphics and monsters and locations tons better than before, the action is like being in one of those ridiculous big budget American movies, the endgame is varied and exciting, build variety is finally in place with all the buffed skill runes and legendary affixes, and the fact cookiecutters like ww/nado and critical mass, and OP and stale shit like lifesteal have been removed. I cant believe this is an expansion to D3, to be honest.

Wow, Diablo 3, where have you been all my life?

I'm actually very much looking forward to RoS. I enjoy playing self-found and RoS looks like it caters quite a bit to solo self-found players, you can easily see this from watching Kripp, or anyone else streaming RoS for that matter. Where as solo self-found in PoE is almost non-existent. You could maybe "beat" the game on self-found, and by "beat" I mean Merciless Dom, but you can pretty much forget about doing maps.
