Originally posted by Arawulf This game has really caught my interest. There are so many aspects of the game that have not been revealed (intentionally). Community discussion seems to be key to their development process, so I'm curious about this: what could Crowfall announce about their game that would make you suddenly go, "Nope!"?
I would say the default for any new game is no. They have the job of turning that no into a yes.

the game mechanics that define the MMORPG genre, then why are you
playing an MMORPG?"
On paper FFA / full loot PVP sounds great, Skyrim with friends!
But the reality is full loot pvp just ends up attracting players who get their enjoyment from griefing people. I don't know what the solution to this is, you're fighting human nature, but I will not waste any time or energy playing a game in which the community devolves into cannibals.
Cash for gold... as in the VIP Membership trading system.

So full loot = pass

If they say it is really a MOBA like it sounds more and more every time they release information. This would make me say no. Them stating things would be reset over time already has me leaning to NO.

Well you're both in luck. Its not there, at least on 4 out of the 5 original campaigns. I'm sure there will be campaigns with full loot, but you don't have the participate in those campaigns.
PVP + Cash shops = massive 3 month exodus like Archeage. There is a reason WoW and other PVE games are still doing decent business. It's PVE content. Games slated for PVP and console gaming are dead to me.

Best resources are tucked into full loot, FFA PvP areas.
You can opt out of those areas and safely craft items nobody wants.
Triple dip monetary system in place.
Sub money can be converted to in game currency and used for anything in game.
Not feeling this game at all so far. With raph on board, I think it has potential to be interesting. But seems like every time we get a bit of news about this game, it has me walking further away.

Instanced PVP... Lobbies aka instances waiting for arena style pvp.
Wait, isn't there already lobbies confirmed?
oops

Let's see... The story so far:
Best resources are tucked into full loot, FFA PvP areas.
You can opt out of those areas and safely craft items nobody wants.
Triple dip monetary system in place.
Sub money can be converted to in game currency and used for anything in game.
