I don't blame wow for every dev making their game a wow clone, I blame those devs. But damn if I don't give wow dirty looks because of it all. Lowest. Common. Denominator.

I hate the concept of classes in MMORPG's. Provide the skills and let the players choose. If your game is well-made this can be balanced to encourage a variety of choices. When you have classes your characters have no identity. Orin Firestaff play…

1) Don't aim to be wow. Keep the budget low enough that something more niche will be affordable to create. 2) Make the game world worth being a part of. Group finders, fast travel, quest helpers and other convenience items are nice but they detract…

When Sandbox MMORPG's start coming out with the production values that some of these themepark games have had, and IF they fail after that, then I'd be happy to admit that sandbox games don't have enough of a market to compete. Until then I'm just n…

Originally posted by Zarf42 Nostalgia can be very dangerous. People tend to look back on games they played 15 years ago and think they were so much better than they actually were. WoW was the first mmorpg that I played, unfortunately, so nostalgia …
