  • Wow. You guys successfully turned an MMORPG discussion into a political debate. Bravo! I'll partake. When you either want or don't want a law to pass, what do you do? Most people write their representative of congress or senate. Now, imagine yours…
  • I think people take for granted what the developers are doing. I see this a LOT on the WoW forums, with people crying about what's broken, what needs to be buffed/nerfed, and how that would help them. Some of them even come in with great, valid argu…
  • Truthfully, I think people forget what makes an RPG. They've been around for a looooong time. It splits down into many different types, but here's a few key components. They focus on: 1) Hack 'n' Slash (think Diablo, Titan Quest, God of War, etc) …
  • I think a good MMORTS will have to balance the action RTS and the strategy RTS. What if, for general questing, you had your "Gods and Heroes" setup, where you take your most trusted soldiers out into the world. Say you capped that at between 6 - 10 …
  • Originally posted by Abrahmm Originally posted by nariusseldon Everyone i know likes it. And it is not as easy as the author has indicated. My guild has tried TOC 10, and the tank is not geared enough to get through all of it. Just the first bo…
  • The problem is that hardcore players don't feel "epic" anymore. It used to be a status symbol to carry around that T3 armor, you had achieved something that about 2% of the WoW population achieved (can't find the article, will look it up). Serious…
  • What happened to the mix of things? In EVE Online, in the starter areas, or Empire space, you can pretty well fly without fear of being shot down by pirates or other PvPers. As you progress into Low Security space, the yields for income increase, bu…
  • The fact of the matter is that MMOs are built to attract a wide audience. If MMOs don't have a large number of subscribers, they simply fail. It's important for them to appeal to the PvE crowd and the PvP crowd. The problem is that this usually is d…

  • The biggest problem with people posting their thoughts on games here is that they usually complain about one or two things in an MMO that breaks it for them, but not everything else. For instance, I'm a WoW quitter. I got an 80 Shammy and 80 Warri…
  • Originally posted by BwanaKuu Anything in life is a grind, but it's just whether or not that grind is FUN.  If the grind is fun, then it doesn't really feel like a grind at all though it might be repetitive.    /agree. I'll also agree with t…
  •  I think a lot of people are being a little naive about the whole F2P cash shop system. I don't blame people for forming a negative opinion of it, because the MMO market is flooded with sub-par titles and asian grindfest MMOs. The flaw isn't in the …
  •  It definitely sounds like the gripe is combat mechanics. This is something I've been observing in MMOs for a while, and have been keeping an eye on new games on the forefront to satiate my needs. I would recommend Jumpgate Evolution as a game to …
  •  It's true that a lot of micro payment games are, well, not so good. But there are the few out there that are worth it and are not only fun, but have the content and a dedicated development team to make them an enjoyable experience. Even some of t…
