Yes the Shadow Wars were an *absolutely unparalleled experience* in MMOs for myself as well…

Oh how I would love if Asherons Call would receive a total makeover, but stay true to the mechanics..

Won't matter who makes the game.. Lucas Arts owns the IP and it was pretty apparant that I'm not a customer they want. At 39 I'm older than they want.. and I don't play consoles.
This is an excellent point.…
From the post
Smedley told me that focus groups drove the changes and what was best for the game.
Those focus groups started after the decision was made to alter the game, and they originated at LucasArts, not SOE.
I probably said thi…

Heh, I felt the original system was hideously complicated for no good reason. Tiny stat modifiers? Useless.
Hundreds of materials of various qualities? Stupid overkill. Hasn't anyone here ever heard of "refining"? I …

Another one bites the dust.
Seriously how many licks is it going to take to get to the center of the tootsie roll pop, SOE? Why the fuck do you guys insist on pissing off your players, and moreover, why are you so fucking good at it?
In relation to the NGE (as I believe was the OPs point), my breaking point came within 2 days of live NGE, in which I PvP'd smuggler vs medic, and the action was comical at best -- and not in a good way.
