    I wonder why they never put Cabal 2 on Steam? Cabal is on there, does it mean they will be shutting down also?

    Bill, there were 3 seasons of the show, and after the cancel there was some sort of a "continue" of the story in the game (I wouldn't call it a season, but the effort was there), hence the 2050, aka 4 years later.
    ed: it wasn't kept alive by the console players... it is quite crowded on the pc

    I like that your series is back, mmoftw ftw :wink:

    Maybe because instead of improving and expanding on the original, Cabal 2 was a "re-imagening". So pretty much a new MMO with old's assets.

    Cheers.

    I am a huge FF fan but i am sorry Yoshi did not improve the game to where i want to play it.I played 6 months and had enough.
    His vision and SE vision is to copy mostly Blizzard but other developers instead of being the leader in creativity they have been for years.FFXIV is a lovely game,in it's basic form a great game but it's core design,the combat and class structure is imo as weak as Wow and the other games i don't want to play.

    How ironic,i actually play some Wow,ONLY to appease a couple friends.

    Rather comment on Defiance based on the past,i will try the new version and see if they did anything meaningful or just a bunch of weak systems that act like a carrot on a stick but not immersive at all.

    Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.

    Ok i remembered why i uninstalled Trions games>>>GLYPH,that piece of junk pisses me off.

    That Glyph has been questioning my whereabouts and if it is really me EVERY single time since it's inception.I do not want to be badgered to look in my email for some code then add it in every single time,i want the transition to gaming to be FAST and smooth.
    I would have thought after all this time they got that fixed but nope,no way could i handle that annoying system every single time.

    Defiance, we have been talking about the issue Bill mentioned in the Action Combat thread. When you have action combat in a MMOFPS that does not feel like a FPS then something is wrong. Transferring “achievements” from the old game to the new is to be applauded. If that was done for the likes of a new WoW, I am not sure anything would stop its dominance for another ten years.

    The term “quasi-MMO” news was interesting, its not MMO news, but we don’t care what it is, if you think its worth talking about put it in. :)

    Then we have the wake up call for new MMOs, “Bring something special to the table!”. I think if you do the basics really well the game can do really well, but we see so many MMOs that just seem to go through the motions. It is hard to separate originality in game design from something that’s just some sparkle to make the game look special. Only long term play will separate that wheat from the chaff.

    But you have to bring something, be it exceptional basics, great new gameplay or an IP that people buy into for the sake of the IP, otherwise you are going to be just another MMO.

    BTW the video is not showing on the "pictured" video list on the main page, still the old one.
