Sadly the term "crunch" is vague and means different things to different people. I think the authors disdain for the extreme cases is clouding their view and they seem to be dragging Tom along for the ride even though he states his view about "cru…

I may need to take a break from BDO and check this out. The changes look Great !

I respect your observations but given the multitude of different play styles; MMO experience, level of competitiveness, etc. I think designing an MMO for everyone is impossible. Not to mention once the Producers see a trending in the gaming popul…

I am right there with ya. Paid for Alpha and found an amazing game and played it all summer until launch. Sadly the game is a victim of F2P and the nasty greed of the producers. It was more important to gouge the customers and bleed them dry…

Originally posted by LacedOpium The focused and vocal "forced-group" crowd is a niche group not unlike the focused and vocal "forced" OWPvP crowd. Nothing "forced" has a chance of succeeding in the MMORPG genre. The "massive" in MMORPG is all-incl…

Originally posted by LacedOpium I am convinced that most, if not all, of these "force" group-centric people are looking at grouping with rose-colored glasses. While I would certainly agree that the "force" grouping crown is a minor…

Originally posted by Roin Oh look another person that thinks the sun rises and sets on their ass. Do be careful when you get off your high horse. Wouldn't want you fall and hurt yourself. Since when has MMO meant you have to do it as a group? I'm…

Originally posted by nariusseldon Originally posted by Kyleran The tourists are leaving the genre, soon we'll have it all to ourselves again. The AAA devs are also leaving the genre. But I suppose you don't mind indie niche offerings. Well …

I am happy they removed flying. It was lame to begin with, without flying based PvP and PvE combat the system just became a way to avoid content and quickly escape attacking players.

Originally posted by maji MMORPGs require less and less teamplay and communication. So guilds are not as much needed anymore. +1 MMOs are being designed to avoid player interdependence so team play and guild development has fallen away …

I am not a fan of instances in any shape beyond having different servers without transfer. I was lucky enough to have played MMOs during their inception before instancing heck before PvP or PvE were even defined playstyles. The worlds were finite…

I recently dusted of FFXIV and rerolled a new character starting at level 1, its been a couple weeks of casual play and I am having fun and found a great guild to help get back into things and answer my newb questions ( Order of the Silver Dragons…

Sorry, but it seems like a lazy article. ACE was very clear from the beginning and explained the additional cost and time required to provide full gender/class access. I noticed the Avatar options and customization is very light when compared to …

Your observation is slightly flawed. At the moment there aren't any MMOs designed around difficult solo content and the amount of solo content is much greater now than in previous MMOs. Historically the majority of MMO content required a group…

Pay to Win is subjective and means different things to different players. The simple facts are: Labor Points are a core system in ArcheAge that control how much you can do: * the amount of things you can Craft * the amount of XP you …

How many times have you jumped into Beta of a new MMO and your imagination gets the best of you. You dream of some amazing game with lots of cool people to group with... but after a couple weeks you are trudging along solo, staring at Faction chat a…

no Addon, just the built in LFG. You will still have to deal with the standard PUG drama but it isn't oo hard to find groups.
