Hypernaut1 Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Is it just me, or does the PoE hype site seem to have much less hype than previous? Don't they usually do something cool thematically with their hype sites? There's no countdown, riddles, animations, promos etc. For such a big update, you'd think they wouldn't go all out.... Unless I'm missing something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix1992 Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 The sheer size of PoE is hype enough on its own, tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weidro Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 there cant be a countdown cuz DE doesn't know the exact time yet they wont hold anything back and they will release it when its done which is fine more time spent = less bugs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabbynaru Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 They got burned by overhyping War Within like crazy, so, they toned it down this time around, I assume. I mean, it's still excessive hype, but, it's not as bad as War Within. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Man_In_Suitcase Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 I'm burnt out with hype, in fact I'm tryin' to avoid anything PoE related on purpose as I've already spoiled myself too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valiant Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 I also think it's because we've seen a lot so far so there actually may be little to tease? I do wonder what else there is they haven't shown us and if there is maybe they want to keep it unknown for now. I imagine there's still a ton left but a small part of me wonders whether that 'ton' may be actually quite small instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is they recently stopped things like dataminers from ruining stuff they wanted to keep a surprise. They have mentioned stuff like new arcanes, new operator weapons/armour, but they are keeping specifics very undercover until the update drops cuz they want to make it a surprise.

Sziklamester Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 They seems learned how not to hype the game anymore. The last one hypes most of them was a little fiasco to them because they said they will release but in the end DE'lays' happend. Also the best surprise if they not sharing much at all because we players wish to explore these new things and systems one by one. Like the guy said above me 'they do not want spoil us'.

I'm not really sure where that post is, but iirc it was posted on wensday and it was just about saying how far the development of PoE was going. (Not much info beyond the 10 day estimate till telease date was given) Nore that this can still change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BornWithTeeth Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 I’m assuming that behind the scenes, DE are freaking out, because what they’re doing is simultaneously more ambitious than literally anything they have done before, and yet also not going to be able to keep up with the hype. The Warframe community could generally do with a bit less hype and a bit more cool, dispassionate evaluation of stuff. Sometimes y’all make me feel old.

Xardis Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 After 4 years of updates I dont feel the need for hype. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)watt4hem Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Well, it is quest a different update to second dream or war within which are lore heavy. This is like between a quest update and specter of the rail kinda update if you ask me. I personally think it has okay hype. Never over-hype things. Give enough insight to make people interested. Imo, anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

--RV--Meta Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 You want hype burn out? Try The Sacrifice (aka Umbra FINALLY). All it took was a new teaser announcing that it's still going to come eventually and people lost their S#&$ all over again, though.... Some people never learn.

This is still huge mind you, but not the biggest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
