  • Originally posted by Tymora As far as the continuing "who can bad-mouth SOE the most" campaign, I am not worried about it at all.  If there's one thing I've learned over the years, it is that players will complain about developers/publishers and r…
    in Vanguard: Saga of Heroes: New Site Launch Comment by Ithar August 2006
  • Anyone else notice in the latest video released for Vanguard the SOE logo appears first,  then the Sigil logo. Foreshadowing?

  • 1. What is it about Online RPG's that atracts you to them? - Real people provide better gaming than AI.  Espcially, PvP,  but even co-op gaming in PvE.  A hireling can't react like a real person.  The reactions from players are real and chan…
    in Why do you play MMORPGs? Comment by Ithar June 2006
  • I was thinking the same thing about release delays,  but then I got to thinking how all these developers who are making fantasy-based MMOs would want to release their game before the competition. Case in point,  WoW released basically same time as…
    in MMOs released in Q4 2006 Comment by Ithar May 2006
  • I played AC for quite some time back in the day (7-8 years ago?). I thought the magic system was quite in depth for it's time. I really like how you can't just learn a spell from someone,  or all of a sudden you know 10 more spells because you j…
    in My list Comment by Ithar May 2006
  • I think Vanguard has a lot of promise.  One great thing is that it will be an online world,  not an online game.  More like UO and EQ and less like Diablo and DDO.  Not that there's anything wrong with those online games! I think a stumbling point…

  • Originally posted by Maverynthia ...Also these fake MMOs are charging to play them, like DDO and it's ilk. This is where I think ArenaNet got smart and didn't charge for playing Guiildwars... Very true.  I'm playing (and paying) DDO right now a…
    in MMO's Getting Stale? Post your Ideas! Comment by Ithar May 2006
  • ...I mean really, how different can they be?... Quite a bit.  Other than swords and magic,  not much. Then again,  what genres are there if you think about it? Fantasy (past),  sci-fi (future),  real world (present)? Past,  future,  and pre…
    in New MMORPG Comment by Ithar May 2006
  • Originally posted by Zindaihas One thing they could do is turn my idea into a game.  I don't say that with conceit, I just honestly believe I have a formula for a killer MMO.  I won't repost it here, just the link.  I'm not giving up on this idea …

  • This assumes there is a license.  SOE is listed as the developer of the game, which could possibly mean LucasArts pays SOE to do all the development stuff for them I can't imagine there isn't a license fee.  I know Bioware had to pay for KoToR, …

    in What has worked? What hasn't? Comment by Ithar May 2006
  • Originally posted by Barge ..."Taking concepts that have worked in the past"... I just read a couple articles on MMOGCHART.COM.  The thing I found interesting,  is if a game has a bad launch,  it will have trouble recovering.
    in What has worked? What hasn't? Comment by Ithar May 2006
  • Originally posted by Tymora ...This is what leads me to beleive that Star Wars Galaxies may really have been struggling before the NGE...Was AC2 really doing that badly?... Excellent post Tym!  This is the discussion I am looking for.  Thanks…
    in Top MMORPGs Comment by Ithar May 2006
  • Originally posted by Tymora It really should come down to which one you like best, and I would call that one the "Top" mmorpg. Well,  yeah,  no question about it.  For me it's UO.  No other game has the flexibility and content.  Forget the pre…
    in Top MMORPGs Comment by Ithar May 2006
  • The first couple weeks,  DDO was bustling. For examaple,  there was "harbor-1" "upto harbor-7".  Maybe even higher,  but that's the most I saw. The last two weeks,  there hasn't even been a harbor-1.  Just "harbor".  This tells me players have r…

  • Disney,  come on,  we know you got the money.  Even if the target audience is 10 years old and up,  a 10 year old can see the characters are "bubbly" cartoons,  and the graphics are very weak.  Maybe Disney is trying to get it out before Pirates of …
    in Pirates of the Caribbean Online: E3 Preview Comment by Ithar May 2006
  • Who really knows at this stage. But why does it always seem like something has been defiled when SoE steps in and takes a part of it..? So true.  SOE really got a reputation from SWG and it's justly deserved.  That game is such a joke,  it's no…
    in Vanguard: Saga of Heroes: SOE to Co-Publish With Sigil Comment by Ithar May 2006
  • *sarcasm* Keep up the good work SWG dev team!  Maybe after 100-200 more revamps you'll be down to zero users and be even further away from making a game people wanna play! Seriously,  can these bone-heads get anything right?  Whoever is leadi…
