I just recently rediscovered Age of Conan and I've been getting into it again. With someone like Joel at the helm (I'm also a TSW loyalist), I'm more confident than ever that this game is worth investing in.
Also, when I first tried Anarchy Online …
I love the combat in TERA and now that I can play for free I'm getting back into it. At the same time, I'm also a big fan of TSW. I play both but for diferent reasons. With TERA I get great combat with a frankly boring and unengaging storyline and l…
What's most interesting about TSW besides the innovation of the game itself is the gamer community's reaction to it. Sure, there are always naysayers, but by and large the reaction to this game has been overwhelmingly positive.
And why not? It's a …
This ARG was a lot of fun, even tho I, probably like most participants, mainly watched as others far smarter than I figured out most of the clues.
What was really best about the ARG wasn't even the sitting there for hours on end trying to figure it…
Personally, I love the combat in this game. It's new (for me, at least), it's challenging, and best of all it's not entirely reliant on who's got the best gear and buffs/debuffs. That's huge for me.
Second, the graphics are as pretty as in any MMO…
In some cases, it's not the players who are the problem, it's the employees of the gaming company...GM's, and forum moderators in particular...who are the real instigators. When I played Eve a few years ago, their forums were so homophobically censo…
I would argue that now that many craftable items have been removed from merchants, avoiding crafting will no longer be as feasable as it used to be, thus making the 8-hour crafting limit a far more significant factor in advancement for free players…
The real news in this interview is that aspects of the premium benefits will be sold ala carte instead of being only accessible with a premium subsciption. My main concern is the 8-hour crafting limit for free players, which I believe can and will p…
Originally posted by dbuman Going back to what you said, theres an 8 hr limit for crafting ON FREE ACCOUNTS, so whats the arguement? Pay more, or Pay at all?
What i simply said, however strangely it ended up deleted, was that the 9.99 sub is =…
Um, no. While you're right about most things being extras, there's now going to be a time limit on crafting, 8 hours a day. So in other words, it's a form of extortion: Pay us or we'll cripple a basic game function on your account and make it next t…
I did it. Gave up on 0.0 for a while and decided to do some exploring. It's a lot of fun plus it can be pretty lucrative too! That's the great thing about EVE, there's always something to do.
In my experience, what determines a sense of community in an MMO isn't the presence or absence of shards, but rather the quality and maturity level of the player base. Adults tend to form more serious adult-minded groups, while youth tend to organiz…
Great piece, and speaking as a player-blogger myself (I used to write an EvE-relevant blog and I'm now blogging about Fallen Earth), I'm also glad to see a player perspective column here as well.
I also believe that good customer service is import…
