MOBA cross overs are perhaps responsible for the number of new PvP titles, and everyone likes a bit of player v player action now and again - but for most (70% plus possibly more) PvP is not the enjoyable way to play most of the time. Procedural g…

Originally posted by Boardwalker Originally posted by Voqar Now, I don't consider EVE to be an MMORPG the same way that EQ, or WoW, or FFXIV are MMORPGs. It's massive. It has subs. It's online. But it's not exactly the same style of game for …

Originally posted by Voqar I guess I'm just wierd. It's really odd to me that this isn't huge news for the gaming sites. But then, it's not like many gaming sites actually DO news these days, they're mostly just paid review and paid advert…

I have no interest in story in games what so ever. I know others do, and that's fine. I read books and watch movies for story. Games are where my imagination makes its own story. I might be alone in that - and that's fine. Just worth saying that fo…

I went online to PvP yesterday (my last day before my 30 days box time runs out). In 20 minutes I saw perhaps 5 other players in Daggerfall, went ot a siege where maybe a dozen players were. Not good. Strangely I think it's the forced social intera…

I disagree completely here. Poison that well. I've begun 4 new MMO's in the last 12 months, all of them have sparked, then fizzled very quickly. Boring games incestuously feeding off other boring games. Nothing new. WoW might be an aged trope, b…

This is the game that broke the camel's back for me. It's not a bad game IMO in itself. It's just another game that doesn't really distinguish itself from others. Yes the IP is Elder Scrolls - which I've loved since Arena, the GFX are ok, but afte…

@OP Don't play them then. Many MMO's aren't sub based, so don't play the ones that are. Like your car. Do you have the absolute cheapest car that does the job for you? The cheapest house that performs the minimum "house like" functions you require…

@kb4blu - Glad it's not just me then. Also - as I get older I like reaction based games a little less than I did when I was younger. That may be because my skill in them has declined? That's at least part the reason, but not all of it I'm sure. Bac…

I don't hate GW2 at all. It's a great game in many way.But active combat is not for me. At almost 50 years old, I simply can't compete with reaction based combat. Love the open world events, like the graphics as well. Control (when not in combat) i…

WoW - Comments along the lines of "I've levelled 5 characters to 80 over the last 18 months - but now I don't like the game and can't recommend it to anyone" It was a 1 off payment, you have had to have had at LEAST 250 hours out of it. That's BR…

Also F2P? What are you definitions here. How many people stick? How many use the cash shop. Simple economics say that no developer is going to produce a game, add content, patches and pay server upkeep and mod/admins unless there is money coming…

Book rec (check on Amazon) "I'm not crazy, I'm just not you" Title sums it up really, book explains why. If everyone read and understood this book then just about every forum on the internet would have tumble weed rolling across it.

Another article looking to either police or justify why people like things that other people don't. I can't think of much in life more pointless than this. I'm off to scoff marmite and read Proust Scritty

Originally posted by BluePhoenix09 I must say that their idea for buying and selling is somewhat innovative and interesting. It's going to fail miserably of course, but it is rather heroic of them to try it. As for a single AH not working wit…

Yeah - I was going to buy it - now I'm not. I'm a care-bear and proud of it. Forced PvP and weak trade (chat spam trade) has put me right off. One for you hard core PvP guys. Don't begrudge you that at all, it's about time you got a AAA game. Mi…

Wonder why almost all these older games eventually put in an automated selling system? I played EQ15 odd years ago and remember the trading cave. Fun for a week or two, eventually , as a crafter/trader, I ran out of patience. Often waiting hours fo…

And those that don't get why people MMO but not PvP or group to level... That conversation is done. It's old. Mainstream games have tried to enforce social leveling, and it's killed them. So before all the "why play an mmo if you don't wanna....…

Enforced PvP and chat spam built in by design. I'm out.

Originally posted by scritty It's the shallow and twitch based gameplay that got me to abandon GW2. Even if I liked twitch games (and I don't) the gameplay is really shallow both in combat and out of it. (crafting, AH/trading, harvesting etc) Th…
