    Still not the point, you should read it again.

    Three!? There were only two last time I checked. Wow, development is really taking off. I bet Blizzard's gonna swoop in any day now and make them an offer.

    I think my favorite part is where they say "this will most likely not be the graphics of the game, we plan on making the games graphics even better if possible!"

    If.
    Possible.
    You need to re-read the posts too, I suggest you get to work.
    To what end? Would re-reading the posts somehow give them more than three concept sketches? Or would it change their sentence that I quoted?

    I am quite busy already, actually making a game.
    Re-reading the posts would help you understand the point I have been trying to explain over and over.

    I absolutely understand the point you're trying to make. You think that if a "smart developer" made the game that this guy describes, it will "kill WoW". I'm just saying that you're wrong.

    WoW was lovely for its time. Since then, however, it has been outdone a dozen times over (in my opinion and the opinions of countless others). It just doesn't matter. The people playing WoW may have started playing because it was a great game, but they stayed because of friends and time and money invested.

    So! Even if this game magically transports all of their friends over at the same time, it can't compete with time and money invested. (Unless the geniuses behind those MS Paint scribbles have also cracked time travel.)

    But ALL of that aside, there is no game! "There's humans and orcs, and pvp, and stuff is weird and interesting" IS NOT A GAME. It's not even an idea.

    So even IF they did create this game AND time travel, it would still just be another crappy game with exactly zero substance or creativity.

    Now. Go back and re-read that twice. Three times even.

    I doubt most people stay playing WoW because of the time and money invested, I also did not say it would "kill WoW" I said it has potential too. It may not be an "Idea" now but with a few tweaks as I said before it could be a good game. It doesn't need to compete with the time and money invested and it wont end up being crappy IF A "Smart developer" makes adjustments to this "feature list" or whatever you want to call it.

    Now that I have spelt it out for you, hopefully you can understand now if not then read it again.

    So if a smart developer were to take ideas like guilds, multiple races, and pvp, then "tweak it" to actually make a good game, it won't "kill WoW" but it might be a good game.

    umm, yeah. I agree.  O.o

    much scribbles
    so mileage

    well done, OP

    There isn't a "right" or "wrong" way to play, if you want to use a screwdriver to put nails into wood, have at it, simply don't complain when the guy next to you with the hammer is doing it much better and easier. - Allein

    You have to re-re-read! THEN you understand.

    It would have saved a lot of time if you'd just said, "I wish WoW had mounted combat".

  • Pratt2112Pratt2112 Member UncommonPosts: 1,636
    I'm kinda amused that made it to Steam at all. Do they list a project, now, no matter how early in development it is?

    I start a project now! Hmm. It must have quests. And hmm orcs and humans. And some weird third race, something what doesnt look like orc or human. There should be pvp and pve!!!! And it has meaningful crafting. 
    Meanwhile my four year old child draws some concepts ;-)

    Mounted combat is one of them but not a major one, your getting there....read it again.

    Hey guys,

    So I have come across something interesting in the steam green light concept posts. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=539608213

    If this game gets developed I think it would be better than WoW and all of the other MMO's I have seen before, it has my 100% support. What do you guys think? I know it is very early in development and all there is are a bunch of concepts and brainstorms but the features are very unique and interesting I must say.


    Considering that they are so early in their planning phase that they only have a few concept drawings which are made in probably half a day that chances are actually very good that by release (guess about 2020 if they are quick, but 2022-24 probably more realistic) WoW already managed to kill itself.
