I've seen few MMO(and their expansions) launches and GW2 had best one. It had it's share of bugs and issues but the main deal was there - you could easily buy game, add code, log in, create character, select server and play.
FF XIV had a re-launch …
I don't really see any point of putting more focus on small ~5 people team. After all sPvP is that way -> clicky go into the Mists. There you have it tweaked and balanced with points and goals, where one person can make a difference.

Reading about console MMOs brings back the horror of FFXIV back for me, which failed so badly, that's beyond redemption on PC.
Also issue with consoles is mainly with PvP. How to make console player using controller as "fast" as PC player using k&a…
Despite all the hate(mostly because of overblown expectations), D3 is doing fine and evolved into a great game, especially for casual players.
Hardcore players are still haunted by shallow itemization and AH painfully shows that - this is the bigge…
Blizz failerd with shallow system design, and lack of bind on equip items. AH is merely symptome of it not the cause. Every D3 player that actually plays it knows it. Jay Wilson never know what he was saying and doing and remains as such.
As for…
So in other words this is actually worse version of Blizzard RMAH, that everyone and their dog hated so much?
At least in D3 you could get some cash out of it too, here only Turbine gets it all, as I assume that you can't use those shards outsid…

because there is no AHs you will actually FIND the loot YOURSELF, wow, there is a shocker for a Diablo game.
Tbh I can't actually grasp this one...What in the world stops you FINDING the loot YOURSELF in D3 on PC? …
Also there is a drama with some modder(well he became evil hacker fast aka damage control) basically saying that SimCity servers doesn't calculate anything, they just give some raw numbers of basic values in neighboring cities, which could be easily…

So we have this from Lucy Bradshaw: "But we’re also hearing from thousands of people who are playing across regions, trading, communicating and loving the Always-Connected functionality."
And from EA CFO Blake Jorgensen declared that, “The next and…
Considering all that social features could be easily put into multiplayer mode, without affecting core solo gameplay which is building cities so they can support each other, this sounds like poor PR spin.
They basically enforced multiplayer by l…
PoE is really solid game and although slow combat doesn't cut it for me I'd recommend trying it, especially if you were diehard Diablo 2 fan but didn't like changes in D3.
Still registered numbers cliche is old, doesn't really show anything if g…
Originally posted by BillMurphy I have to disagree with those who spout hatred towards the game merely for the DRM complaint. That's just bogus, especially coming from MMO players. Everything we play has "DRM", but you won't moan about buying the ne…
Path of Exile is definitely game for D2 fans, which thought D3 wasn't worthy successor. D3 despite being thought as innovative, changed core system in comparison to it's previous part. No skilltree, no potions(as in important healing/mana source), n…

Well I don't really have anything to say about what Anet should have done proactively to prevent botting. That's just Monday morning quarterbacking. And yes, over the past 8+ years Blizzard has gotten rid of the majorit…
I think people use term clunky to describe slow and unresponsive combat. And this was always an issue in LOTRO. Although have to say devs were and still are working to make it better.
Anyways GW2 spoiled me way to far to even consider going back fo…
Whenever I have to think what to buy in cash shop in order to play/craft/PvP I'm done with the game. Because even if I buy it there will always be next thing, devs will make sure of that. I may sound bitter but this was exactly my experience in LOTR…

QFT. LOTRO changed from immerssive game where you explored Tolkien world into welcome to Tolkien Mall sponsored by WB/Turbine!!! Store buttons are nearl…
Kinda funny to see results so far. Might be flaved poll tho, as I wonder if people wanting to stick mean they will play it on regular basis or just will hop in after some updates. Anyways my guess would be that either:
