The best part about that whole image by far was the very last thing on it. I had a good belly laugh when I saw it. "Marketing is what you do when your product is no good." -Edwin Land

Like I've said in other threads, I don't necessarily mind pay to win for free to play games(Guild Wars 2 is not free to play)... as long as what they're asking you to pay is reasonable. I think there should come a time where you deal with the choic…

Time skippers... yes and no. If you're launching a game, time skippers can equal power. In WoW, you get plenty of monetary power out of being the first to obtain a crafting recipe. You're the only guy that can craft something, ergo you can charge…

Uh oh... buying character slots? I'm having horrible memories of FF XIV now. In FF XIV you could actually pay for an account with no character slots in it. I believe there it was $3 per character slot but for some odd reason you could elect to pa…

I'm not going to say that honor doesn't exist anymore. A simple 'gg' from the other side after losing in LoL is commonplace and that's good enough for me... of course I'm not going to say that LoL is the friendliest place in the world either. I us…

Originally posted by FrostWyrm Funny thing about Rift, a lot of the community (at least on the server I played on) really hate WoW. They absolutely believe that Rift is completely different and is not a clone at all. Just wanted to give you a head…

Originally posted by Mehve While I haven't yet happened to try a demo/trial that used this streaming option, it sounds like a great idea. Certainly no complaint if it caught on, especially with many of the heavier clients. And being Canadian myself,…

This is the reason I did not try TOR this weekend. I signed up and everything... and learned that this disk space it was going to take up was 25 gigs. Are you kidding me? For a trial? You can't tell me 1-15 needs that much disk space. One thin…

Free to play is fine as a business model. The problem is when the necessities of playing said free to play game cost more than a monthly subscription would cost. For some games this doesn't become evident until you're well invested in the game in …

They certainly have the game world for it. Typically the stand-alone games have been 1 continent-per. Now they have a chance to fit all the continents in one game.

Agree but disagree at the same time. I remember playing RF Online for like a half hour. I got to the first town after doing the tutorial, and either I missed the quests or simply picked the wrong exit from town. Got rofl-stomped by baddies way hi…

I think people read way too much into this topic. Some of the arguments I've heard are down-right ridiculous. I remember reading about some chick who had a problem with Miranda from Mass Effect 2 and her skin-tight suit and certain camera shots th…

The reason why people beg for content in an already massive game world like WoW is because games like WoW are built around and encourage progression. Once you've hit the end, or hit a wall that you can't scale over(due to a lack of time on your han…

Brick and mortar won't last with just games alone, it's inevitable. They can save a few years by going retro to buy/sell/trade vintage stuff. A few big indepentant stores deal with just vintage stuff and others incorporate both. There's no way to…

Originally posted by TruthXHurts Originally posted by Xthos Never played it, but I have never played a MMO where the player run economy was stifling to anyone, and where if you didn't want to pay for stuff, you couldn't easily enough make you…

To me, endgame is any piece of content specifically designed for people at the max level cap. For Korean grinders where it's absolutely impossible to reach the level cap(because the XP needed grows exponentially with each level), there is no endgam…

Originally posted by xKingdomx A question for past subscriber players, have you ever wonder where all those box money ever go to? I have bought a few P2P games before, but never subscribed for long, now the games just sit there and frankly, it…

Originally posted by Rusque Then there's the internet. Forums and websites with quest, zone, item, mob and every other type of tracking and data aggregation. So even if you're playing a new game, you can look up every bit of information about tha…

What made games of old great? The fact that you were young when you played them, if not by age then by gaming experience. You always remember your first, even if it wasn't your best. I'm not saying that's the only factor to consider but let's be …
