Let me preface this by saying I am not knocking GW2. I played GW1 and enjoyed it for what it was, and I certainly plan on playing GW2 for at least as long as I did its prequel. That said, WTH .... Why is this game a full .61 points ahead of its n…
The worst quest I have ever tried personally was the epic quest for clerics in EQ before they nerfed it to make it more reasonable.
When I performed the quest, you had to camp a rare spawn on a 14 day random timer. The rare spawn then trigger…
Fact of the matter is, most MMOs are profitable. Not many MMOs see the gross profits of the mainstream juggernauts like WoW or FF or EQ, but almost all of them turn a profit. If they didn't, they wouldnt still be hanging around on MMORPG.com's …
Maybe its the ole "can't squeeze blood out of a turnip" argument, perpetuum isn't exactly raking it in from what i can tell...
Besides that, the core game is different enough that borrowing the ui feel is probably not something CCP is worried…

Just because its hype doesnt mean its unrealistic or improbable. There is such a thing as 'living up to the hype'. I think WoW did…

I remember my first foray into EQ was on Rallos Zek a hardcore PVP server... I generated a lvl 1 warrior in qeunos, when I logged into the game for the very first time ever ... with my shiney new lvl 1 warrior with no EQ or MMO experience whatsoever…
I read this article and while its well written and brings up some valid points, I think the author is a little pessamistic.
A) I followed WoW very closely during developement. I was very active on the website and helped a friend moderate on a fa…
Originally posted by SnarlingWolf This game will sell a million copies, maybe 1.5 million. It will NOT have millions of subs and 2-3 months in it will be down to 250-300k where it will continue a slightly sloping decline that is typical to most MMOs…
SW:TOR is going to be a blockbuster, make no mistake. Bioware is maybe the only other game studio other than blizzard that holds themselves to as high a standard for quality of their finished product. They are marketing geniuses as well and will u…
WoW just has too much gravity for any other game to touch I believe. It was the proper mix of playability, immersive world setting and story line, PvE to PvP balance, and polished smooth gameplay, universally appealing fantasy mythos structure, …
Originally posted by Avathos I personally will play this game regardless if sucks or not.
I love the Warhammer 40k universe
I am with you.
I may not play it for ever, but I will buy this game upon release. I will play until I have a power …
I don't play WoW anymore. I played for 4 years + and burned out.
But to say its dead is rediculous... it just makes you sound bitter that you are no longer getting what you want out of the game. The features added to WoW over time have come at…
