  • There are many more people that left, some more I found out about with 2 minutes of Google searches. Lead UI Designer was let go. https://twitter.com/matteekay Lead Systems Engineer was let go. https://twitter.com/baoghal Lead Combat Designer w…
  • Originally posted by Toxia In what way, shape, or form, of any kind, did ANY of those games fail?? Just because you thought things were bad in them? All them games are still going strong lol. Ignore the other two games I mentioned for a secon…
  • Originally posted by Vapors In aion I loved to drive on the water with my boat and play a bit the bad pirate. ooops forgot aion never had such things You didn't read my original post have you?  So far I haven't seen one valid response in how it…
  • Paying $150 dollars for a game that is basically an Aion clone with some sandbox features, is not a gamble it is stupidity. 
  • Don't worry sandbox MMOs will just just as disappointing. 
  • Given them a month, they will realize the VR grind is a mistake when they notice many people quitting in the VR2/VR3 range.
  • Reviews for MMOs mean nothing, both good and  bad.  If reviews meant anything, games like SWTOR, WAR and GW2 would be the most successful MMOs but they were the opposite.
  • Off course it will, but the problem is there is almost no interest in WildStar.  None.  Even Aion clones like ArcheAge is getting significantly more interest at the moment, it is that bad. It will get hate just like every other MMORPG, but not to t…
  • Originally posted by lizardbones Except GW2's "decline" stage exceeds the steady state stage for most MMORPGs.  What good is it to have some "slow growth" or "constant growth" if the size of the MMORPG is tiny?   I would say the steady stage is…
  • Originally posted by Apraxis Ok.. i ask you back.. why will you play it here and there? The same reason I played Aion here and there, curiosity.
  • There is no way it is worth the money, I don't think the game will do well with F2P either.  Basically the game is Aion questing, Aion combat, with some sandbox features.  That is what I boil the game down to.  Aion with some more fluff.

  • Originally posted by lizardbones Anyway, ignoring WoW, interest in MMORPGs, including these new games that supposedly don't hold interest, is increasing over time.   Well that is the MMO trend.  Big launches and massive flops a month later.  It…
  • Might as well jump on the bandwagon like everyone else.  Previous MMORPG scores for MMORPGs. TSW = 85 Rift: Storm Legion = 84 (Yeah SL) Tera = 77 I hope ESO is just as good as Tera per the MMORPG gods.
  • Originally posted by MyownGod Originally posted by Shephard The goal of an MMO should not be to peak like SWTOR and GW2 during launch, and then go on a free fall downfall a month after.  I think this will happen with ESO too, but it will be hard t…
  • The goal of an MMO should not be to peak like SWTOR and GW2 during launch, and then go on a free fall downfall a month after.  I think this will happen with ESO too, but it will be hard to beat the SWTOR/GW2 downfall that happened within a month. G…
  • Originally posted by Gaia_Hunter VGcharts only estimate retail sales. It is true that VGcharts is not a reliable way of tracking total game sales. But pretty much all current big PC games sell tons of digital pre orders and copies with their alp…
  • He also posted on the /r/elderscrollsonline subreddit. This won't get many hits because it isn't sexy enough. I feel that The Elder Scrolls Online is just pretty par for the course for new mmo's. I don't think its bad, I don't think its good. I th…
  • Originally posted by fantomace So almost 3 weeks after launch most fanboys are now less optimistic about ESO sales, they forgot about 5m acc or 10m subs etc. ZEN remains silent, most reviews gives mediocre score, many ppl fleeing already and everyon…
  • Originally posted by Krimzin With 90 Days Patron Time and Credits.. Its not a bad deal. I guess it all boils down to money. If you have disposable income then its not a big deal. No reason to hate. Its a solid game. And on a side note.. It wa…
