  • I'm a reformed open world PvP player. I think it's impossible to make a good game. MOBA still work, but not open world. I loved Darkfall, the boats, the archery, the crafting and everything, then things started to settle out in a bad way. Fair fig…
  • I'm not sure how many of the list I like. Some I do for sure, some I think might be bad for the game. I've been playing again on an emulated server and it's been great. I was surprised how many people were on and playing.
  • Originally posted by Neanderthal Originally posted by Torvaldr   So what does fun, exploration, and adventure mean? Those are really vague subjective assertions. What does a game need to do to meet those aspects?  Like I said, it's not my job to f…
  • A lot of players were PVE, hit 50, max skills done.
  • If it was just like EQ I'd be ok with it, but the important part is to make death meaningful. I favor big XP loss if you don't get to the body, but not gear loss. I wouldn't make it days of loss, EQ, even at 50 was a few hours loss. I thought the…

  • You're all just locked into your stand toe to toe thinking. You have to step out of the box for a bit. FPS games would be a good way to look at it, but with a depth because of magic and the arc path of arrows. It was clearly the good part of Darkfa…
  • Crowdfunding is the BEST thing to ever happen to gaming. The very best because it allows the consumer to guide the direction MMO's will take. I can guide the direction by funding those projects that say they're going to try to make what I want. To…
  • Originally posted by hfztt Originally posted by DocBrody  Can´t wait until it reaches 100 million $ of pledges, the console-only fans, publisher agents and other game advertisers who don´t want to see SC succeed will probably implode with rage. Af…
  • Originally posted by Pepeq Originally posted by asdar I started from a place where I loved PvP. I wanted PvP everything, but now I'm of the opinion that PvP and PvE should be strictly segregated. The only crossover should be arena style or consensu…
  • Originally posted by xpowderx Considering pve and pve has already been combined and proved quite successful. With old games like Star Wars Galaxies and the king of PVP Dark Age of Camelot. It has been shown that pvp and pve can be combined effective…
  • I hate what you describe because games all but force you to play that way. It's boring and too structured to feel like a real world. To me there should be real quests that mean something and give a special reward. A good leveling system should be a…

  • 1. UO - Sandbox/PvP I think definitely influenced gaming, I know Darkfall referenced it. 2. EQ - 3-D MMO/PvE - This has to be on every list to be a valid list. It influenced every other game after it. 3. AO -  Sci-Fi  MMO/factions 4. Lineage kore…
  • Originally posted by Nanfoodle I agree combat is not the direction most EQ fans would ask for but I think EQN is far from Dying. Game gets announced and people go nuts and forums get tones of activity. Few months later the time frame of release date…
  • I totally agree with the OP, except about Vanguard. It was old school and failed, and hurt the whole MMO market. I don't ever dislike Devs, but the Vanguard devs I have some hatred for. That was the chance to turn MMO's in a good direction and they…
  • Originally posted by goboygo Did you seriously just make a post about a game dying long before release. A game that doesn't even have a release date?We cant even wait these days until a game releases to claim its dying?  What the hell. I seriously …
  • I'm totally ignoring the riot going on all around me, and going back to replying to the OP. I think it's great that they have the money to build the game they want. It looks like it has everything I've always wanted since I started playing video ga…
  • I've gotta go with the new guy and say Archeage. It gets really detailed and yet at it's heart it's easy to just go off and throw in some bait and enjoy the peace. It's very rewarding in AA, but I don't really fish for the reward.
