Sigh... always so stubborn. You are going to go with the concept that they sold 65000 accounts from Kickstarter to last Jan and then 400,000 accounts from last Jan to now?
I am sorry you doubt it, but it's simply factual. Do…

I'm concerned that you still cannot have an EK open 24/7. The VIP just gives +3 hours to it.
That seems... unfortunate.
Could someone explain to me how the EK works?
I was mainly looking forward to Crowfall …
One of the perks is "+3 hours eternal kingdom uptime". I was under the impression you can visit your world whenever you want. Is the bonus uptime to make the world persist for others after you log off?

Oh, leave off any examples of keeping a game alive outside of the original creators control, I view such endeavors akin to software or IP piracy and always side with the creator being able to maintain control even if their choice is t…
What are the benefits of having an entire game run on a blockchain?
Does it in theory completely eliminate server costs - i.e. makes the game infinitely scaleable? That's the one major potential benefit I can see.
I still find the premise a bit st…
I personally think blockchain is a major fad in gaming. The main benefit of a blockchain is the ability to verify information in a distributed decentralised system. In MMOs, the entire information is held by the service provider - there is no need t…
I'm wondering why the game hasn't built up a strong following at all. Given that the game has been in alpha/beta for years, would you expect a community build-up?
There have historically always been two patterns of player retention: you have typic…

just wanted to add that Crowfall is a crowdfunded game... through kickerstarter and pledges... and ashes is selffunded for the biggest part.
Crowfall is private investment funded for the most part. What's not immediately ob…

It says on-going beta. Anyone been playing with thoughts?
The things I see as pros:
The core ideas are really cool. And they have interesting people on the project. I love the fact that you have your own 'home kingdom' an…
The part in the video saying what's to stop anyone else from making an Earth 3 is interesting.
The first I heard about Earth 2 was on a Facebook ad, months ago (way before it started making the rounds on social media). Several people in the comment…

Is it worth a buy
The combat is very much in line with the space part of the game. It feels alright, no major issue for me, but it doesn't excel at anything either. The biggest draw will come from the fact that you c…
So they're essentially saying the game will be balanced around monetisation right from the get go. I know little about New World, but the moment-to-moment gameplay better be stellar if it wants any shot at longevity.
They just announced a PvP tournament with $50,000 in prize money. I still can't get used to companies treating Early Access games as release products. The game hasn't even had it's final wipe yet, but there is a prize money tournament with commentat…

The public ones have certain advantages and the private version has other advantages. Both can exist at the same time.
Some really interesting ideas. From a publisher's perspective, it might make a lot of sense, especiall…

I could be a whale, except I don't buy anything in the cash shops and certainly never buy loot boxes. I also almost never give any money to the kickstarter efforts.
Is that because you don't see it as value for money?
Or becau…

Forgive my ignorance, for I do not play nor will I ever play a FIFA game, but wtf comes in a FIFA lootbox?
They have a "build your team" mode. You start with a weak team, then buy loot boxes that have better players in them.…
