  • Bill,   Terrific read and I happy to see that someone is finally admitting to the implosion of the genre that has taken place over the past year or so. The industry HAS changed, for the better and then for the worst at the same time. The last MMO…
  • What went wrong?   Same thing that went wrong with all the other wow clones. We needed another wow clone like we needed a hole in the head.
  •   *taps on glass*   Chris, hey Chris...Great read but I think you forgot something.   What happened to Xenoblade Chronicles X? There was some incredible live gameplay footage shown not once but twice on the Nintendo's Treehouse Stream. You watc…
  • The good: Xenoblade Chronicles X was very impressive, same as Elite: Dangerous, Splatoon and EVE Valkyrie. The bad: I was not impressed with all the same-same FPS shooters, rehashed and sequels. Looking at you Destiny. The ugly: I really though th…
  • Well said. This all seems so familiar though. Like I've been through this before, but in a different way. I already have a lot to do ingame, so I am going to stay. Where I'm at. New discovery! Everything is shiny. People will love it and hate it.…
  • That thread is gold.      I am not even playing the game so I don't have a response, but that thread was great.
  • I was surprised that I was bored by the game. I dragged myself to 10 and couldn't play any longer, too boring. I don't know what it was, the stale combat system or the lackluster quests.  To the people who love the game: good luck to you. I'm happy…
  • 1) Discworld: Terry Pratchett 2) Piers Anthony: Magic of Xanth series.  3) Mistborn series : Brandon Sanderson 4) Sprawl Trilogy (or Neuromancer series to those who don't read books): William Gibson or Snow Crash: Neal Stephenson 5) Have to hon…
  • I'm not saying a word as I am still under NDA and in the latest closed beta. But will I will say is that if they put that money (supposedly 200 million dorrahs) into Elder Scrolls VI, it would have been incredible.  I actually put it on my blog tha…
  • Great article. You made some solid points and I agree completely with your philosophy.
  • Comes home, watches new trailer, checks email...nada. Turns on PS3, smiles about the PS4 announcement today and says to himself, "everything is going to be just fine."
  • Well, nice post Mr. Murphy, although this sort of beta tomfoolery has been going on for quite some time. I have been in a few closed betas (Rift) that offered beta access if you bought the game. That is what I call "paying for beta." The new thing…
  • You're hysterical. Great piece. I am still laughing to myself. I don't know who I would be in that convo, being a member of PCMASTURRACE and a PS/PS2/PS3 player I can't decide. I got Defiance for PS3. Don't judge meh, I like my shooters with teh con…
  • Congratulations Bill! Say goodbye to sleep. Good Review in Progress or RIP. I have been playing Defiance from beta into launch, while it definately has its problems, it still has a good hook to it. I've run into plenty of little bugs here and ther…
  • Hey Mike,   Good write-up. I would have loved to hit up PAX, but that job thing gets me every time. I am surprised there wasn't more of a solid marketing campaign for FFXIV at PAX E', we all know the company needs it. I do want to ask, what does a…
  • "There is no reason a rogue would wear heavy armor in the game." With a high enough sneak skill, muffle with a decent illusion skill and either the invisibility spell or invis potion, you can wear a pair of cymbals as earrings and get away with it.…
  • Originally posted by spizz Well if you are installing this ENB you have to adjust some settings to your liking i.e. color intensity and grain, you should combine it aswell with the mod "Climates of Tamriel" for the nice weather effects but also for …
  •   I run over 180 mods and my ENB is focused on lighting and realism. I run a very dark and gritty version of Skyrim. The colors are a little desaturated that some people might call bland, but I like the stark realism with the lighting. I would rec…
  • Originally posted by NBlitz Originally posted by Inktomi Isn't SweetFX just for 32-bit executables. I wanted to use it for Skyrim but I have a 64-bit machine. Originally posted by jazz.be I tried the first method and I don't see any di…
  • Originally posted by Teala Originally posted by thark Originally posted by Teala It is just dumb.  We can travel all over the world in WoW, but in TESO we're limited to the lands of our faction, leaving 2/3 of the world unplayable.   Even in ol…
