    Don't Overhype TESO...

    It's already begun.. I've seen people already threatening Blizzard with the impending doom that is supposedly The Elder Scrolls Online. Before this gets out of hand, I'm urging you all to not overhype the game and offer it the title of WoW killer. That title is false and has ruined Rift, Swtor, and GW2. I don't understand why this always happens, when will people get a clue? Another tip: Don't try to read every tiny little thing about the game before it comes out, a game is much more fun when you have low expectations because when you get in and see all the features you didn't expect, it makes the game much more enjoyable, trust me, I talked down GW2 on MMO-C all the time before it came out and a few weeks after release I just bought it and it was very fun. Anyway, don't give TESO the preemptive "WoW-Killer" title and don't overhype it. I hope I at least slowed down the inevitable.
    It's pronounced "Dur-av-ian."

    While that title is stupid, it was hardly even remotely responsible for the failures of those games you listed.

    Hopefully it does kill WoW.

    Too late it was overhyped when it was first announced, yet when or if it turns out not to be the best game ever. Those who overhyped it will blame the company.

    Well of course that wasn't the only reason, but it was a hugely contributing factor. Also, what's wrong with my title? D:

    By title I mean "killer of wow"

    The vocal minority uses that title. There were so many technical issues with those games that caused people to leave them.

    Well.. it won't.... Also for the record, I plan on buying TESO, I just won't be reading up on every bit of news and claiming it's going to be the best. I did that when Rift came out and I quit Rift a month after launch(Came back every now and then, irrelevant).
