Was there much publicity for this game?

The fact there is NO YOU TUBE reviewer saying any about the game is a PR disaster .


Edit . Not enough You Tubers , with all respect to others i mean the big ones most people follow.
You can dislike them but they have direct contact to Gamers .
Don't fear what you can't control , Sony does understand that now and they are now rising stars in the gaming community ....

Angry Joe had a Defiance interview, but I think he normally waits until a game launches. I'm not sure about the others, as I generally don't use YouTube reviews.

True did see that interview but i would like more reaching out to those people as they are a big part of the world wide gaming community.

Pro active contact them get off that throne,be one with the people .

Never neglect an opportunity to reach the people you wanna sell your product to.
If you have faith in your product why make it looks like you fear rejection ????

This game rocks and needs more badass in your face publicity

This part of Trion don't seem to like to communicate with their customers. Compared to Rift devs the Defiance devs could be mutes. That does not bode well for the release. They've been very quiet all way through beta and it will probably continue through launch.

There's some players who can't even download the client as it give a patch error and restarts from the beginning and not one dev has come in and said "we're working on it" or said a damn thing about it. Not good enough.

If Trion want this game to succeed they need to get their ***** in gear. You launch on Tuesday!

IGN streamed a playthrough. I think Gamespot did as well. Apart from that I've seen nothing in the U.K. Variety have done an article which covers the advertising of the game and tv show. It's not very positive so I won't link it. I expect the game to get a 70-80% Metacritic rank. Hopefully good reviews will push the sales up.
