  • Originally posted by Flummoxed     Originally posted by Tantarra What it isn't is a chance for amateurs with no talent, which let's face it, is what most wannabees are. Acclaim isn't going to throw 1.1 million away on no-talents. Well then h…
  • Perry has confirmed that it will be an RMT (how else do you generate profits from a f2P game)? As for it being hype, Gamespy/IGN is also involved in this, and they're a very large company (owned by News Corp). They're the ones providing free tools f…
  • While I remember fondly all the fun I had pre-CU, and I wistfully long for that same feeling to return, I know it wouldn't. All of my friends from the game are gone, and with that, the magic is gone too. This is one of those cases where it's true …
  • Asheron's Call by a long shot, for me. My account has been active since day 1 and although I don't play much anymore, I do log in and do a little bit at least every couple of weeks, so that's going on 8 years in November, and I'll be there til they …

  • Good joke. If nothing else, the purple wallpaper was a dead giveaway.
  • I was a beta tester for Horizons. In the end I didn't subscribe when the game went live, although I did think the game held a lot of promise. It's sad to see that it has come to this stage. Interesting article.
  • At this point there's not been a lot of concrete information released. They've said there will be squad based ranged combat, as well as non-combat activities that involve crafting and construction. They plan for the latter activities to be an import…
  • I prefer Horde, although I don't necessarily think it's better.  I just enjoy the fact that generally it's the minority. I do have a couple of Alliance characters, and speaking strictly from a female point of view, I love little female gnomes with t…
  • I guess several things keep me going. My level 60 on my main server is in a raid guild. I find that both fun and exasperating. It's a huge time sink, sometimes; other times I love the challenge of helping this guild get through raid instance bosses …
  • Keep your eye on Vanguard. Although it's too early to tell it could be what you're looking for.
