TESO the biggest rival for ARR?

One thing that does seems strange. TESO trailer has 2+ million views in YouTube. While ARR only has 200k. Did Bethesda paid YouTube to make their trailer trend at the top of the search list? The ARR trailer is more exciting and have a sense of story behind, so it should have more viewers than 200k. It's this an indication of the level of expectations ppl have for ARR.

Most of the views are fake most company use a way to get lot's of fake views. Youtube a few weeks back took a lot of fake views from videos but people keep doing it.

Or the Elder Scrolls series just has a wider following/better marketing strategy than Final Fantasy... >_>

It definitely is marketed better for sure. I wouldn't be surprised if we see a crap ton of commercials for TESO.

Yup, while it is disappointing since I'm more of a FF fan than Elder Scrolls, it's not the least bit surprising to see TESO get more attention because it simply is more popular in the western gaming market. Also their marketing from Skyrim was spot on and their setting a good start marketing TESO.

Their "An Introduction to TESO" video with over a million views informed and intrigued me more about their game than every single video up on FF XIV's entire channel combined which have all been about flashy graphics. Sure those of us who follow the game constantly know plenty of details about the game but good luck finding all that info from SE's videos.
