I like the fact that the demo is available for everybody to try out. I think GW2 is in a good place currently - took a while I guess - and I hope Anet will keep it up.

@MadFrenchie To add to my previous comment - in 2016, 8 of the top 10 grossing games on PC are free to play. The whole narrative of free to play games don't generate that much money is simply inaccurate. Also, the eastern market is much bigger tha…

In the near future... no. MMORPGs have become niche once again following years of triple A developers trying to create the next WoW in terms of success and failing to do so. There isn't as much interest nowadays. MMORPGs are expensive to create, tak…

So for the people who are going to ask about price: If you don't own Heart of Thorns, you buy base game + HoT + new expansion = 50 dollars. If you own HoT = 30 dollars. Very reasonable in my opinion.

From my personal experience, there are two main reasons as to why MMORPG's are declining as far as popularity goes amongst average gamers. 1. Time: there are more games to play nowadays from mobile games to Moba's to single player experiences.…

It is complicated, punishing and too time-consuming. I playd it for 2 days so this is an opinion coming from a person who tried to get into the game but had a hard time doing so. Maybe I gave up to easily and I should have given it more time but as …

I think the video is ironic considering how obsessive Star Citizen fans actually are. They worship Robert, they worship the game and have threatened journalists before on multiple occasions when they have released negative articles about the game an…

Quote me on this, a few years down the line Star Citizen will be released and it will be a shell of what was promised. There will be a massive backclash and people will whine about their wasted money. And if I happen to be wrong and the game ends …

Dear bcbully, I still remember the plethora of the threads you used to open bashing Guild Wars 2 and telling people to move to the far superior TSW. You seem to have a grudge against Anet and their game. I was an optimist when GW2 was released four…
