Originally posted by chryses I have always been an Elder Scrolls fan dating back to Daggerfall. Having hammered Skyrim all week, I can't see how the essential ingredients that make the series work, can be transferred into an online format.

My point is: it is a game.
If it is a master Kensai, maybe he is known by reputation.

Originally posted by evolpc Let me start this off by saying I am a fan of the game. Was very excited about launch, etc. The issue I am having is not related to gameplay, as I have no complaints about that.
For those of you that are not aware, Func…

Originally posted by Gaia_Hunter Then why do players ignore tanks in PvP, even if they call names to their mothers?
What about the natural reaction to hit those that hurt you?

Not sure how this relates to this topic but you asked :-P
Originally posted by Loke666 Originally posted by Axehilt Nothing about reducing the core roles is "dumbed down".

So, you want to make us believe that you didn't pick up one of those gazillion beta keys and gave the game a spin? That you didn't read up on it and what the game is about/like?
Instead you just bought the box, activated it and are now crying that …
I think the biggest mistake people are making with the "trinity" is look at it from a combat-centric angle.
Yes, like certain other people I love DAoC and love to reference it.
Especially when looking at a game like GW2 ;-)

this relates to SWTOR how?
I mean we know that EA doesn't see any BW project (currently) as a high priority...
So... are we to asume that based on the OP's write-up EA is going to drop BW (and it's projects including SWTOR) completely in…

Let's be frank: would you like to sit there staring at the coca-cola dynamic…
Originally posted by Vutar Why do a few people want to turn MMO's into FPS games?
