Which news announcements are you referring to? The only one I can think of was the Witch and that came out a week after they said they would release it.

If you recall they said "a big announcement will be made next week". And then next week came and went and it was only the week after that PCgamer posted the Witch announcement. To be completely frank we all knew what the announcement would be anyway. The only question was what the spellcaster would be called and what it would look like. From that perspective, it was hardly worth the hype that it got.

If you actually think about it we know almost nothing about PoE. We know the general vagaries of the different mechanics but there is no specific information on anything. Not to mention that most of what we do know is from a version of the game that's about 6 months old.

I realize that PoE is still in development and that things will likely change but I know there are many thing by this point that will not change. Take the passive skill tree for example. It's not like they're going to suddenly get rid of it at this point in development but we know nothing about it other than that it exists. Nothing.

I could sum up all the public information about PoE in a couple of paragraphs. And that is really disappointing.
