  • The reason companies ignore supply/demand curves is that they want to maximise profits, not sales. Rift has quite low subs and they still make big profits, and its doubtful that they would earn as much money if sub cost dropped by half. The issue th…
  • The better question is why people pay a subscription for mmorpg's instead of playing the huge amount of f2p games that are out.   I play games that I enjoy playing and have payment methods that I find acceptable. If I would find a non-p2w game wit…

  • Everquest was the first generation themepark, but at release its purpose was just to be a fun graphical multiplayer game. After a while more things was introduced making what we now call themeparks * Raiding was to give endgame more purpose * …
  • The problem is not that they made games more casual-friendly, because the levelling part usually is the most enjoyable part of the game. The problem is that PvE-endgame mostly is a repetition of other games, combat is the same old tab-target system …

  • Originally posted by Zorgo If it were re-stated: Why has no game since WoW been able to maintain over 1m subs?   UO, AC, EQ, DaoC never maintained 1M subs, and its only the asian game that maintained over 1M subs, and they did it before and a…
  • With no tab-target, no global cooldowns, and active block it sounds bit like tera and B&S, except teso has sprint instead of the quick dodge movement that tera/B&S has

  • The idea of a holy trinity is a good one, because tanking, crowd control, and healing gives different roles to players, but the meat tank gamestyle with just healer keeping you alive has to change. Mmorpg's needs to give less tools for threat contro…
  • Originally posted by chryses MMO's are going to have to go to a FTP / BTP model otherwise they won't survive. In 2001 I started playing MMO's and I happily paid a sub due to the lack of MMO's out there.  Not to mention virtually no competition fro…
  • Originally posted by Demogorgon   - The almighty GW2 "B2P + benefit shop" models doesn't even get 2%... nough said. rofl   Its quite obvious that most people view gw2 as b2p+fluff, even if there are some small benefits from the cash shop.

  • Originally posted by ste2000 The OP must have read a new Lasagne recipe by mistake. Really from the info we got so far, TESO look more like SWTOR with TES skin. I don't know where you get the impression this could be the saviour of MMO. If Zen…
  • Originally posted by aerinndis I know there hasn't been any recent news, but I thought Everquest Next had been confirmed for sure. I heard something about possible info at the end of the year, but who knows.. EQ next has been mentioned, but they d…
  • Originally posted by dave6660 When they release something original. If I can play for 2 hours and not feel like I've done this twenty times before then I'll be happy. How different would a game have to be to qualify as original? Can it still be…
