Very well said friend. More than any other Genre MMO's work by word of mouth. WoW has the advantage of bringing in the battle.net babies, which is good because it brought in massive amounts of new players to the MMO market, but it was bad for Blizzard in the sense that the mentality of the babbtle.net babies isn't typically the same as your dedicated MMO player, in terms of expectation and attention span. EQ1 built and maintained its fanbase through word of mouth and a lack of hype, and it doesn't surprise me in the least that Sigil didn't have a dedicated booth at E3. This reduces hype, yet still gets information out into the press. Those interested in the game (fans and press) got multiple things revealed to them when they sought the information out (called doing research), and those who didn't seek out Sigil didn't see much because one had to actually care to look for it. Up until E3 there wasn't much information to be had on VSoH, and now that there is I've linked the E3 reiviews to about 10 friends who are all now chomping at the bit to try VSoH for themselves. Word of mouth > all in MMO genre.
