The future of mmo's might be on consoles, but PC games as a whole aren't going anywhere. A console is just a heavily DRM'd PC (with hardware 3 or 4 years behind the current PC top-end), and so it will never replace those games that allow people to…

Nah, LotRo had an equally smooth launch, if not moreso. Not knocking Aion's, but it's been done before.

Originally posted by Axehilt Skills and Levels are merely different ways of organizing how the player's power is gained and distributed. They affect very little beyond that. In theory. In practice though, most skill-based games let you…

It's pretty simple OP. PVP helps insecure people feel better about themselves. That's not an insult, it's just an observable fact about human nature. You can extend it to all forms of competition. I'm better than you is an itch that some peo…

Originally posted by neoterrar What I think sandbox is: 1. Skill based character development, not limited to crafting and combat. 2. Ability to modify the world in some way, be it housing, towns or forts. 3. A variety of things to do, not limited…

Sorry to see you go, your columns were this site's only claim to professional journalism. Good luck.

Originally posted by FunkyLasagne I never really worked out why Asmodians are so popular given the lore. If Dick Cheney played Aion, he would be an Asmodian. No one reads the lore except the five rp'ers that will be playing. Asmo are pop…

Originally posted by MMO_Doubter Okay - why isn't there realistic water in the game, and why can't you respec? How many characters can you have, and will you have to repeat the tutorial for each one? You can have four characters, …

Interesting. Glad to see another A-list title trying something different in terms of progression.

Team Fortress on speed doesn't justify an mmo subscription fee. I'll pass.

Originally posted by Ackbar I like the idea of a sandbox falloutesque style world but I've just heard the performance is too bad. It's not. The people that say so are either running a rig that was built in 2002 or have no idea how to mai…

Originally posted by judgecal It's interesting to see people proposing a game in which you are NOT a star ship captain. I could see the marketing department trying to sell that to people: "Set Your Phasers On Scrub! You too can start out as a…

I've purchased and played both extensively (multiple lvl 20+ toons in Chinese and NA closed beta for Aion, lvl 40 beta tester and current head-start participant for FE). Fallen Earth is clearly a deeper game, boasting a much wider array of advan…

Agreed on Fallout, the visuals/setting are the only thing they really have in common. Regarding EVE, I think FE shares a general feel with that game that other mmo's lack, namely the ability to be and do basically anything you want. You can quest…

No one's hyping anything, merely expressing appreciation for the game. If anything, FE is over the heads of most new players because they won't have the patience or the attention span to learn a game that doesn't hold their hand. And that's perfe…
