The moderation on that site is horrible.
I remember shortly after the Sylvari reveal (same day I think), there was a thread discussing and comparing the races. Posts that did not favour the Sylvari or mentioned how they did not like their new desi…

An MMO like say, WAR is mainstream. It didn't do very well but it was built to be as such due to it's features and relevence to the genre (no matter how…

Wait... what?
Skyrim isn't a sandbox game. It's a massive themepark in the se…
Why is Skyrim considered a sandbox anyway? It still has developer created quests/content, only that you can do them in any order you wish and that they can have changes to the world.
So wouldn't that technically make GW2 a sandbox (non-linear, opt…
What I find interesting that the Elder Scrolls series have been considered 'PvE Sandboxes' for as long as I can remember. Yet to me they are disguised themeparks. However, if they are truly regarded as a sandbox, then why isn't a game such as GW2 re…

Yes and no.
Guild Wars is one of the hardest multiplayer online games I've played. But at the same time, requires a low amount of time investment since the content is skill > gear, thus little grind involved. Especially vanilla prophecies where…
Because while the storytelling itself is good, I just don't feel it fits in a multiplayer game. Spending the minimal time I have with friends does not want to be occupied with watching cutscenes together.
Keep it for single player games. Having st…
Personally, there are three main aspects of MMOs that hold the core game together;
1) Combat
2) Content
3) Group Dynamics.
With TOR, all three of these areas are similar to WoW or a traditional MMO. In GW2, they are all very different than a…
Just for the info, GW2 isn't going to be a 'niche' game. It's much more different/mainstream than GW. An actual MMO for one.
With TOR, I wasn't counting on it being the 'be all, end all' of MMOs. Personally it was clear from the start what Bioware…

Yet, that …

Originally posted by waynejr2 Just watch the cutscene. If you want to group don't be selfish about it. Try to work within the group.
I think you're completely misinterpreting my point.
Me and my friends were fine with watching the cutscenes…
