Aion was polished and pretty and had some innovations (PvP-rifts even). Too bad it got boring after a month, like all the theme park MMOs I have played due to their shallow and linear content.
While you guys will be levelling and killing lots of m…
In general I agree with the OP but I am a bit more critical of the game:
PWI is an outdated game graphics wise and performance wise. After having played games similar in style (take Aion for example) I tried log back into PWI and I actually felt d…

1) Can F2PG be profitable and will we see financially successful F2PG games in the future? Most of us, including …

To say PWI is behind Aion...hmmm
well PWI has flying combat, and it's light years ahead of what you can do in Aion.
Those that pvp on PWI can attest to having real aerial combat in PWI, as opposed to combat until you…

You really can't pay attention to the subscription base of F2P games though. How many of them are spammers, previously banned people, or guys making 2+ accounts to have a full range of characters without buying extra…

I'm a long time mmo gamer, into my 2nd decade.
I think the anti-f2p attitude comes from a mix of 'protectionism' and the crazy defense 8-track users had when they were approached by cassettes, and cassette users had …

Wow.
So what do you think the games and the companies are running on, good intentions?
I suppose there's no one that does it for the love of pc ga…
Things don't have to be so complicated.
I decided to try Fallen Earth. I went to their website and downloaded the free trial. I tried the game and I liked it. I subscribed and will pay until I don't want to play any longer. No cash shop in game. I…

"And for that reason, most of your "counterarguments" are totally inconsequential. Yeah, it was developed P2P. So what? If it'd been developed as a F2P from the start with the same quality bar, they would've saved all…
The best colours are:
1. Red
2. Black
3. Orange
4. Blue
5. Green
That's a fact and we all agree. When it comes to MMOs I think it's more a matter of personal taste.

I tried some, didn't like the idea that you could buy yourself success so I quit and started play more decent and fair games of higher quality. Community can be good in F2P games but they spend far too much money on their crap games and I honestly f…
Maybe Fallen Earth?
No forced PvP. (Limited to certain small areas).
Very solo friendly. Some quests are listed as group missions but most of those are possible to solo even at "normal level". Of course if you want to group up with friends it ca…
