I've been circling Project 1999 for a while and not being a torrent type of person I always found getting Titanium a particular head ache, but after hearing about the new progression server, and being too inpatient to wait for launch, I finally wade…

Great review. Enjoying the game so far, feels like very much like a successor to Ultima 7 in many ways, ie, moving objects, playing with environment. It's essentially an old school CRPG with some newer elements thrown in, with a decent story to boot…

Sounds like you're ralllying against the spirit of what an MMORPG should be - unpredictable, dynamic, and, sometimes, harsh. CCP don't step into stop griefing because it is part of the fabric of their universe, it's a simulation, and if someone …

But he may actually think that.

Having a different opinion is not being a troll - it's having a different opinion.

I think the doom and gloom angle the OP has gone for is a bit unwise, but the sentiment is probably true - Wildstar and ESO both do not have enough "new" about them to last too long. Nobody can see into the future, and nobody can say which MMORPGs w…

I keep coming across this, content versus quality debate. Personally, as someone that has no real interest in chasing the carrot on a stick that is end game content, can't I wish for the game to be slightly different? Rather than being told to be ha…

Because I would argue that WoW, even in vanilla form, had a bigger scope. More classes, more races, more than just two paths to start from, variety of zones, etc etc.

Doesn't have half the charm of WoW, nor the scope.

You can mine 400+ ore in an hour. Times that 8gp that's 2400 an hour

I wrote this review. 'Hard as hell' is both a pro and a con yes. Not a typo. The game's difficulty can be part of its charm, as well as absolutely maddening. Go an hour with a massive amount of souls, lose them all to a cheap shot, and come back a…

Spent 5 hours trying to go on to the EU servers. This launch is a joke - it's one thing remaking the game once, it's another to screw up the second launch. Badly played by Square Enix - this MMO is a trainwreck.

You can't hate on a game just because it's on a tablet - that's what it sets out to do. That'd be like calling out a chicken sandwich because it isn't a pie.

You are right, but when it came out in 1999, you could consider that it could have gone one of two ways? Follow-up "spiritual" successors such as WoW retrospectively defined EverQuest. In reality, the original game was a slog to the cap with much of…

I believe the "we" is either the royal "we" or instead, "we here at the site" rather than implying that everyone that glimpses at MMORPG.com is now part of the hive mind. Which granted, would be cool.

I'm more than fine with you not liking my articles. Each to their own etc. However, that article wasn't one of my first, I had been writing for this site for about a year, and the whole "FFXIV fanboy message" bit was meant to serve as something of …

Try 9 and yes, I played EQ from day one as well as DAOC and Anarchy Online. It's what happens when parents refuse to buy a PlayStation. But I could have a retro EverQuest off with anyone - I'll just shout TRAIN! LF SOW! and invoke the goblins of…

Tingle here. I thought those remarks were funny. : [ Message received, less of the toilet humour.

Just because its a volunteer force of developers, doesn't make the graphics any less of an issue. Yes its admirable, but you have to understand that as a MMORPG, it can't be in a category of its own - it has to be against Guild Wars, EverQuest etc e…

Originally posted by Intrinsic Errn what's with the final picture being of RCT I'd love to say it was a meaningful "the sandbox lies ahead" type image, but it's a pure and simple case of drag and drop calamity. Sorry about that...
