You can't just take a bad sample and derive a conclusion from that.
Are the TWO (out of how many) serves serving the time timezone in their population? The figures reported are so low, a single…
Wow Killer is a silly title for this.
Could Aion grab a lot of Chinese users from WOW? Probably.
Will that affect the bulk of WOW's profit? No.
Will Aion attract US and European players? Probably not. Its beautiful, but I thought L2 was b…
I find it a stretch to call this a guide.
The first article was more accurately titled as musings.
Maybe an intro...but not a guide.
I was interested for a brief moment and thought "Wow, an article on MMORPG that might have some actual content…
I think they had to do something to counter act the end game. Faction, faction, then lots of prerequistes that keep my from playing with my more active friends.
I started a new toon on a friends server, but she's busy with faction. I have played…
Right on the money with this one. Its got more content than I can keep up with. I like having access to gear that makes it fun for me to kill things. I am sure there will be something I can't do at the end that people with time can, and I'll comp…
The team analogy was probably the best for making me consider the other side of the story.
I am a casual I suppose. It does seem weird to me that 10 hours a week at something makes me casual. I do about 8 hours a week of swing dancing and am co…
Interesting take on the expansion.
Personally I am enjoying it even while I see exactly what he is talking about.
The amount of quests is simply insane. Its very fun to feel like no matter what I am doing its helping one or even two quests.
T…
Finally! An article by someone I can relate to! It even gave me some understanding of people I can't relate to (hard core gamers).
A hard core gamer is getting the same accomplishment out of his MMORPG experience that I get out of my job, family…
I just didn't think that much of the editorial.
This is the way I read it: WOW is the biggest game ever, MMORPG improves their net worth by having people active on their site, post a poorly written rant as an editorial, people respond and it doen…
Ultima Online for a month when it first came out. I was so disappointed it wasn't more like the ultima series (which I can sadly say I played 1-7) I quit fairly quickly.
I didn't play anything other than D2 online for a while. I tried DAOC and A…

The best item you can get is a new mount. Not an epic mount. A normal mount. A turtle. The turtle prize card is a random find in the boxes.
There is a turtle! Makes a mad dash to ebay....
Oops, I guess I kn…
Failure is definitely the keyword. Financially you can't call WOW a failure, though there are hundreds of things to complain about.
For me a MMORPG fails when it isn't fun. And by fun, I mean fun for me. I can't play every day, and I can't play…
Its interesting reading through all the comments because its clear the only thing everyone agrees on is that they want something else.
I read about people who want more grouping, different raids, more content, more pvp, etc. I personally want the…

I personally think that instancing is a good thing. Oneshould keep it in limits though - no guildwars like stuff. Instancing on the frequency as WoW or EQ2 do is cool. They should however make instances spread more in …
I wondered why I hadn't heard anything about this game lately. I came over to the boards and read the depressing news first, glad to catch this one before I have to run off to work.
UXO is very exciting. The ultima series was the first graphical…
I played beta for the Diablo II expansion LOC and I loved it. The game was basically complete, they were testing balance and stress loading.
Blizzard hasn't failed me yet, that is unusual for a gaming company.
It all started with a lant…
You guy's have convinced me. I'll install the lineage 2 beta I downloaded yesterday....and if I get bored I'll install the FFX whatever I bought 2 months ago and never took out of the box (was enamored with Horizons and holding out hope for AC2 at …
Yes, they finished nerfing everything evenly a few months ago...balancing I mean...strangely enough that was when I quit. All characters were equally boring.
Its the best game I have played for the first 30 levels, after 50 I stayed until Februar…
