I spent $166 in the Kickstarter for two DT accounts, and then I guess another $30x5 in sub fees. I don't know if it has been worth it--on the one hand, this is the longest I've played an MMO in a while, and I really was involved and cared. So in t…
1. We're not feuding anyone right now, so I haven't had a chance to experience the Holdings/Outposts warfare part yet.
2. We've had a couple of nights of testing out the new combat changes, and I'd say the overall evaluation is good.
* The lower …
Hi Mumbo Jumbo,
thanks for taking the time to lay all this out, and to contribute to the conversation. A few thoughts for you:
1. I agree with you that figuring out where MMOs should go to be satisfying, requires an analytical effort to under…

You have repeatedly complained about the "review" by Steve. There has been no such review written. Instead he has posted a FIRST IMPRESSIONS which was clearly titled as such and explained that this represented …

Mbando,
What makes you think Bill and now Steve are not or did not go beyond the tutorial? Bill said he played it for a few weeks. Steve said he would play it for two weeks. You have actually just said now t…
Originally posted by Audoucet It seems that you can't judge the game, if you didn't try it for six months in an active settlement. Oh, and by the way, you're not in a sufficiently active settlement, if it's not TEO, Xelias or PFU.
Simply put, you …
You keep comparing PFO to Albion Online. I jsut checked out the game, a bunch of player's gameplay footage, and I don't think the two are comparable.
1. The graphics look very nice in Albion, but it's one of those projection games, like top-down …
I think asking for an objective anything is sort of silly--anything we do is local, subjective, and reflects our personal history and perspective. Thoughtful, transparent, useful--those are all possible for a review, but not objective.
And I don't…
Hey Bludd
I didn't notice that, but have since heard about it. But training was turned on yesterday, so not really a big deal.
I guess I'm just not desperately searching for something to be pisse dover, you know? This is another great improve…
I backed Shroud of the Avatar, and have downloaded multiple client builds and tried to play. Each time, after an hour or two, I'm like "this sux" and uninstall the game. As a consumer that's entirely appropriate. But if I was representing myself …
Ginaz, you feel free to play the game for 2 minutes, and decide you don't like it--no problem with that
I have a problem with someone who represents themself as a gaming journalist writing a review based on spending a total of two hours in tutoria…
The fact that I post at more than one site is irrelevant to the substance of my argument. Please stop flaming/ and attacking posters, and stick to the substance of the thread.
This is so frustrating--if you say you're going to review the game, then actually play the darn the game so you can review it. This is a settlement vs. settlement PvP game--everything in the game is built around being a member of a real settlement …
So far, pretty darn good.
1. People were running convoy operations last night. Mechanically that's pretty cool, plus it required all kinds of settlement to settlement comms. MULES CONVOYS, PEOPLE!
2. The WoNA escalation is a ton of fun. By far the …
Originally posted by StoneRoses Hardly a learning curve considering how strip down it is. You got to have a lot of patience.
Did they even bother assigning keys to their Action Bars yet? This one alone is quite challenging not knowing what the fuc…
Some additional insight from Lee Hammock, the lead designer.
1. A War of Towers/Tower holdings metric is what determines if you get any of the higher level building kits. "We've got a record of tower numbers, general activity, etc, through the Wa…
Wizardry, I think everything you said is spot on. It makes sense if you already have expertise, but as a newb, you have nothing already known to tie to the new information. It's my biggest beef with the game, and my main critique of the developmen…
1. To the best of my understanding, EE10 will have the ability to raid other settlement's holdings for bulk goods. We will not be able to conquer/destroy other settlements however--there's no timeline on that.
2. The Paladin class is not in yet, n…
"We have plans to tear those towers down in a server-wide event called the Wrath of Nhur Athemon, and when that event ends, Settlements will no longer depend on Towers to determine their power levels. Instead, those levels will be derived from the s…
