Off Topic - Is POE doing enough to counter the D3 ROS hype? - Forum

Scratch that, nothing will happen. Casually casual. Last edited by Simon_GGG#0000 on Feb 17, 2014, 2:58:40 PM	Posted by TheAnuhart#4741 on Feb 17, 2014, 2:26:49 PM Quote this Post

" sidtherat wrote: there will be two way migration: gamers will go slay monsters in RoS. traders will flock to PoE i have RoS beta access now and really really cant wait for it to go live. after 6hours getting back to desync is like kick in the back. long time poe players will be shocked when they try RoS about combat fluidity and network performance. this simply cannot be compared to poe at all. however trading in poe goes well with all that legacy stuff sold for dullurs Sadly this is how I feel too. But I'm a self found player at heart so maybe RoS will intrinsically be a better fit.	Posted by GeorgAnatoly#4189 on Feb 17, 2014, 2:32:42 PM Quote this Post
You do realize that blizzard is 1000 times larger than GGG. The hype for ROS should be much larger than it is. It won't change anything, maybe for a week or so. ign: DaEDaenarys	Posted by BldSwtTrs#4844 on Feb 17, 2014, 2:34:07 PM Quote this Post
Blizzard had their chance with D3 some 20 months ago and blew it. No amount of dollars gonna save them from that cause its allready dead and buried.	Posted by Miraculixia#3774 on Feb 17, 2014, 2:48:22 PM Quote this Post

On a local gaming forum, PoE forum is pretty much dead now (was thriving around release time) and RoS forum is non stop new posts. people talking about RoS in the RoS forum isnt really hype. hype is media coverage advertisements etc.. and RoS hasn't had a lot of media coverage at all compared to past blizzard titles. I am sure that will ramp up once we get closer to release but right now I would agree there is very little hype and practically no one outside its forums are talking about it.
