There's a lot of history behind the whole demonization of D&D (heh) which is not really mentioned in the article, and it's a subject which probably rubs more than a few gamers the wrong way who grew up having to deal with attitudes like this.

Originally posted by Vesavius As a side quesion, and I ask the same of TESO fans, would you be as excited for this game if it didn't connect it's brand to one you already love? Would the game itself hold up to what you are looking for? Would you car…

Much like how rappers make crap actors, studios will still give it a go because they bring along a fanbase who'll go se…
Originally posted by Vesavius Originally posted by SpectralHunter My snarky remark is they have the right because they have the license.
But like some have said, Neverwinter is just a city in FR. It doesn't have to be related to Bioware or the…
Originally posted by Siveria All I can honestly sday is "meh" same crap in just a new area that your already doing, MMORP expansions need to start offering more than just the same shit in a new area, have some actually unique stuff for once, should …
Yeah go try faelight server, it's densely packed in my experience and I'm constantly getting into public groups and IAs, sometimes entirely by accident. There's also a ton of RP going on if you're into that.
I'm going to have to say Rift, but you do have option #3 if you don't mind spending $30 a month and have the time: do both. I enjoy both Rift and TSW (although I need to resub to TSW, let it lapse) and both games are interesting for different reason…
Staying away from WoW for about 16 months now plus being into Rifts for the last 6 months made an attempt at returning to my old haunt pre-MoP almost physically painful. Can't ever go back. My advice? Everyone who says Rift feels a bit off needs to …
I haven't even been properly ripped off by Funcom yet and I noticed early on that they seem to have some suspicious billing processes. I have refused to set up a new account by card with them or buy points...am waiting for TSW to get time cards, for…

I can't stand the combat system. I might play it if it was better.
If it was any better?:D Its unique hard and dynamic, I never understood people hating it. xD
I think it's becaus…
Five minutes in the auction house usually cleans me out if I'm not careful (and I sell a lot on AH to make up for what I spend). Regular loot is okay, but there's a lot of rare stuff that is hard to find...it's always worth looking in the AH in case…

Originally posted by tristanryan Lots of news about Rift lately. From new fun stuff coming, to long awaited new pvp philosophy, even very nice looking player housing.
However, the reason everyone i…
Yeah I had a problem as well. I went for the "6 month" option figuring i could change it before my first month was up if it looked like it might not be worth that time (I wanted to lock the early subscriber discount in just in case) and when I reali…

Absolutely. I returned to Rift after trying it out last year, and have to say that the game has grown, gotten very stable, has a good population and is now my top dog MMO.
As a real casual player I'm actually finding Rift kind of challenging in a not-too-aggravating way. The OP may need to stick with non-MMOs for a while though, as I'm not entirely sure what sort of challenge he's looking for, but if its one where you…
While this isn't terribly surprising to me, given Funcom's record, I do have some questions for the OP:
1. Do you understand that a Beta is a test phase and will likely be buggy? Are bugs the issue?
2. Does it seem like Funcom is using t…
Okay, I don't keep up with all the EU but I do try, so here's some bits worth mentioning to the OP:
1. Boba Fett wasn't some dude who stole the armor, he's a clone spanwed from one of the last Mandalorians (Jango Fett; see SW: Attack of the Cl…
