  • And because both parties are humans who are pretty much ruled by their emotions, it's up to others that have more control over their own emotions to establish a norm. This is how communities are built. For the life of me I do not understand why so m…
  • Originally posted by Spellshaper To OP maybe its not concerns of hardcore GW players, but hardcore GW PvP (GvG) players and I am one of them. ... Have you made it economically viable for ANet to cater towards your tastes (that is, have you Hadc…
  • Every single thing in the life is a clone of something, at some levels. The more you know, the more "clones" you will see. The whole "WoW clone" argument is silly. Surely, MMOs do copy WoW at some level, why not? It is the leader. The thing is, …
  • Hmm... interesting. Since there are a lot of non-MMOs here that are quite similar to the WoT, I can see several possible explanations. The Top are: 1. The site is changing the policy and soon some games will go... 2. WoT simply did not pay t…
  • Originally posted by Rakarai http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Sith_sorcerer So you hate the game because it uses the lore of the time period? No. But "Wizard" for Jedi is ... improper. Sith Achemy, Sith Magic, Sith Sorcerer - yes. However, …
  •  GW2 Overhyped? No. People are. A marketer may say "we have a perfect kettle that was made just for you" (hey! it's his job). In plain English it would be like "well, I do hope that this mass-produced kettle is slightly better than the rest…
  • It is a capital mistake to theorise before one has data. Insensibly one begins to twist facts to suit theories instead of theories to suit facts. (c) Sherlock Holmes Let's just wait till the GW2/Rifts/whatever-you-are-referring-to comes out and se…
  • Just like in RL... MMO(RPG)-s are supposed to give a degree of freedom. Banding together and playing "unfair" in no-mans land (aka PVP-zone) is OK. It's not against the rules, strictly speaking. DEVs just should be aware of such kinds of situat…
  • Originally posted by A1x2e3l I am puzzled with this artistic inconsistency (a mixture of historical bloody battle of Tannenberg and a pillow fight in kindergarten). Well, probably Easter players like that for some reasons (I have no clue), bu…
  • Originally posted by solarine It's just limits and control. And the best limits are the limits that suit one's interests, isn't it? The limits are a very interesting thing. In some cultures, a mere existence of a person of a different ... is al…
  • Trolls should be left in peace. That's what they do not like. The more flame, the better (for them). Trolls are akin to the Sith (Lords). You can't defeat a person, feeding off hate and conflict by ... hate and conflict.
  •   Phasing is good, if not overdone. The most dull thing really is saving the world and seeing no changes... that kind of undermines the heroic feeling of it all (GW2 will innovate here, hopefully).
  • Originally posted by conanowns you better make a good freaking game. No freaking excuses. Agreed, Now, would you kindly describe - in detail - what is a good game? In my books good games have: 1. Dedicated devs that know what they are doing…

  • Good. I liked the article. And the Giant Slug killing. And the annoyance of the author. You see, you are in the Sith starting area. There is zero reason for your Sith masters to give you "interesting" things to do at the start, and all the reaso…
  • Originally posted by Drachasor Only cosmetic stuff?  HALF THE POINT OF A SUPERHERO GAME IS COSMETIC STUFF.  Real SuperHeroes would most likely disagree with you It's not about cool looks, it's about saving the world. Looks are... not th…
  • Originally posted by bobbadud These systems even influence proper P2P games in a very BAD way: gold sellers are being promoted with such systems.  Nope. Buyers influence all the things. Such systems are just showing businessmen of all kinds t…
  • Originally posted by trancejeremy Just wait a year - 18 months from now, they'll be paying $30 a month just to get a similar experience to what they are getting now...thanks to hidden nerfs and such. And that's on top of what Turbine might soak o…
  • Recently, I've stumbled over a short history of the company. Quite an interesting read.
  • You say over and over again, this can't affect me. But how can that be true? I am now bowling with a ball that is no loger the best. How do I know that? Because I compare it to yours, which is better. I have a car (a bowling ball). Yo…
  • But it shows you how much it can be abused Well, any single thing can be abused (from a kitchen fork to the large corp's budget). A human being can pervert anything, there is nothing new about that. monetizing consumables (which is bad) ... almo…
