Landscape naturally changed since everyone who was playing MMO's a decade or two ago was younger, now there's a lot of people that are older and work jobs, so they don't mind paying more money to skip the grind.
The game industry is profiting off o…

CHIVALRY!!, without a single doubt. Now if we could just have a MMO like that........
One of the few games I've not regretted buying in recent years.
Well, you know, I have to say that candle was burnt at both ends. Yeah, there's always idiots in the community that use their mob leverage to help ruin games and "make it easier". I'd call this external pressure.
But there was also undoubtedly int…

Part of me has to wonder what the game would be like now if it were redone .. better graphics, better engine, better programmers and development team that could make it the game it wanted to be.
It was supposed…
It's sad that this game isn't booming. It was actually one of the more fun recent casual-play type games.
I thought the raiding stuff might've been a little too hardcore though, I think that's where there was a discrepancy. It went from laid back a…
My expectations of PC gaming in general have shifted.
Nowadays it's just accepting that games are only popular for 3 months before they release (and if you're in beta, cool), and then 1-3 months after they release.
And that's it.
It's literally l…

The endgame progression (raiding 20 man and 40 man) was too hard to be sustainable. I quit not long after my well-geared guild kept wiping several nights.
Yeah I know everyone in here is a pro and most of you will say "if it's too hard then that co…

You get one spec right away and a second sometime between level 10-15 (I don't remember exactly which level), at 50 you can buy spec 3 and 4 for elder coins, so max…

Those people shouldn't be playing MMO's.

My crystal ball (AKA twitch streams) is telling me that this game looks like trash. I'm not a huge fan of the graphics style, but I'm also not a graphics whore so I can get over that. I just don't think the combat looks…
Because it's a proven industry fact that themeparks have more money-making potential than sandboxes.
Investors don't get behind major games to tell their grandkids "I was part of the funding for this game people played 4 years then went defunct".
I don't see the big deal.
There's dominance with skill, and there's trolling/griefing; this is the latter, and it gets banned in most games.
You can't ask game developers to make sure the game is troll-proof. Better to flat-out ban those people a…
