Not sure where you got that from :P
Never been a guild wars fan at all.. bought it but threw it away after a few hours, never looking back at it.
I remember those days when you could actually ask questions in channels in games without getting a learn to read or google it.. type of answer.
In old days it was the pen and paper people that played theese games.. .. bah, enough said. Miss days w…
The thing isthat SWG was a sandbox with probably one of the best MMO communities around. It can't be replaced.
I feel like am belonging to a race dying out.. the ones that knew what a truly good Sandobx game is. If you have not played one of them,…
Nowhere.
SWG was a unique game. There will probably never be one like it again. The complexity, the community. Played it since 2003 and it was my first MMORPG loved.
Back then when I discovered SWG and had finaly found the game of my dreams I wa…
I am human in real life.. I do not mind being an elf in a MMORPG.
I disagree with this article and love high fantasy MMORPGS. What I miss in the MMORPGs is the sandbox concept in a quality game.
SWG pre CU in a high fantasy setting had been perf…
Atmospheric flight is amazing!
That they add this now is *cencored*!!!, should have been added years ago!
SWG - imagine the original game with atmospheric flight! Would have been unbeatable!
I hope they either strip it for Star Wars references…
Originally posted by ArneR76 I wonder if it would be possible to make a SWG comeback without the Starwars stuff.. Dont think Starwars was what made this game so good. For me it was the crafting and surveing.
I support this idea.
All theese predictions :P
Only time will tell. I have seen the rise and fall of many games and I have learned not to jump on any bandwagon or hype before the game is realeased and been out for at least 3 months.
In the first weeks of a new game …
This is why I will never trust SOE.
Those that are faithful and stick to a game, immersing and getting attatched to chars and friends will loose it suddenly and like that because SOE do not care about you.
I will never invest a single coin in a …
Interesting viewpoints, and probably some truth in it.. but I sincerely doubt that Titan is a sandbox game. No matter how much some of us MMORPG veterans love sandbox, that kind of game seems dead.
No developers that aims for high numbers of subsc…
Whats fun in a game is actually playing the game, not buying items! RMT is against the very essence of gaming.
Governments around Europe might start giving game comanies trouble because of this. There are laws against everything and spending money…
I belive that the biggest problem for this game is actually that it is based on the Star Wars franchise.
Hardcore SW fans will alway tear it apart anyways. Others might not have the star wars interest or even be a bit tired of it. Its probably mil…
It is not just about sallary in that business. Leaving the "ship" that close to the release of what is hyped to be the premium MMORPG product and the next wow killer, makes me wonder if something is not right onboard.
Blizzard ftw, but silly that you have to vote for parent company Activision too. Why is Blizzard the only company listed with parent company?
It is almost like giving them a disadvantage since many people love Blizzard but dislikes Activision.
I…
The whole idea about "buying" things for money in game seems to be pure greed and "how can we make more money" way of thinking. And yes. Blizzard is a company and making money is important for them.
But they are also making a game. And should not …

What a lot of you fail to realize is that Blizzard and Activision are quite clearly separate entities. To take Activision's CEO Bobby Kotick's word over Blizzard's CEO Mike Morhaime and think it means anything. Koti…
I doubt that this is anything more than a risk report that simply lists all thinkable and almost unthinkable causes for a decline in income on their products.
Wow is their major income product and they have listed many dangers, including server pr…

I belive the PC / Mac will "winn" because of its versatility as an online platform. More and more stuff are going online, and I think thats the direction of games too, and i am not just thinking MMORPG or online games. But how games are distributed …
