Don't be upset that developers didn't do something they didn't say they were going to do. That would be the correct answer here.
Strangely enough, this happened with …
You went out and bought a dog. You are upset because it is not a cat. You want other people to tell you that you are justified in being upset, and to tell you they think the dog will turn into a cat.
This is not a viable strategy for an enjoyable …

The games I listed had 100 player raids on bosses. So don't give me that shit. They could do it, why can't WoW?

It wont make a very good game. A monster take cities to kill? You will never get the group going. Trying to get a 25 man pug is hard enough. No wood no arrow? Try to deal with angr…
Ah, the joys of selective comparisons. By choosing the right characteristics, I can prove that Angry Birds is a WoW clone.
Everquest:
Race/class/level system.
Each class gains powers as it levels up.

Wait, what? A newly released game needs massive balance adjustments once the devs start crunching numbers from live servers?
Say it isn't so!
Shocked, I am shocked at this news! Why can't developers just perfectly balance tens of thousands of in…
It's much harder to test and balance systems which divide up abilities with too fine a granularity. The difference between a "class based" and a "skill based" game is just whether you raise 4 skills all at once (you gain a level and you become bette…

Can someone define "Next generation" in a single, objective, way, as opposed to meaning "This combat is a lot like this one game I played, and not enough like this other game I played which I liked better"? It seems people are saying "This isn't nex…
"Look and feel" cannot be copyrighted. This was settled back in the late 1980s/early 1990s. You *can* copyright specific graphics (icons), but not the general style of an interface.

It's interesting how many of these "I was hacked!" stories include some phrase along the lines of "I know this 'cause I got an email from Blizzard."
I can't be 100% certain, but I'm *99*% certain Blizzard never sends any such emails. Think about i…
