You don't know this individual's entire history at their workplace. You can't say whether sexism was or was not involved because you weren't there to witness it. You're merely commenting on hearsay anecdotes available on the web. And…

The Verge has put up a lengthy, but well-researched and documented article titled "ArenaNet firings cast a chill shadow over the games industry". It's not short and it goes far beyond the Price firing. It's a good read for those in…

Then to that, we disagree. I don't believe what he did was nearly as bad, and he seemed much more reasonable.
From the perspective of a boss, which I've been over departments before, it comes down to the work though. …

Well I think we can all agree on 1 thing. Wild Cherry Pepsi is waaay better than Cherry Coke.
I like them both.
How about Wild Cherry Pepsi VS Cherry Dr. Pepper?
Also, on an unrelated note, if you mix Code Red Mountain Dew…

This shouldn't even be controversial. The fastest way to get fired at any company is to disrespect customers. That is what JP did. That is why she was fired. End of story.
I don't think it's tha…

Maybe just maybe you guys and girls at mmorpg.com can hire her for she can cuss us out when we tell you all how to run the site. Golden you all need someone like that hahaha
She shouldn't be rewarded for her behavior.

Like I said in the first thread, ANETs seemingly heavy handed response of dismissal rather than censure makes me question the value of her (their) contributions.
It also appears they may have used this as an opportune justificati…

Bought into Firefall founders at the highest level, not making the same mistake twice.
Edit: And to be clear, you have no idea how much I WANT this project to succeed. I freaking love sci fi themed anything, I loved all the …

So the world is pretty small then?
Only 2 biomes are in the game right now: Desert and Unnamed City.
The official wiki lists 8 biomes for the finished game: http://conanexiles.gamepedia.com/Biome

What killed my enthusiasm for Wildstar was the endless barrage of quests. It was too much. I stopped trying to read them once my friend started playing because he was getting impatient with me.
It actually forced me to take a second to think ab…

lmao this sounds like the exact same system they already had in place in EQ2 from about 2-3 years ago and it never garnered any attention back then either as it was nothing more than a cash shop scam.The idea was that we would g…

To be quite honest, Everquest, as a brand name, has not been the same since it released back in 2004.
At first it would be easy to blame Blizzard and World of Warcraft for that, but really it's issues with Sony and SOE. SOE …
I haven't finished the entire video yet, but I'd just like to add that I think one of the biggest things to destroy MMO interactivity (between players) was the push toward voice chat that further segregated the community. It annoys me to no end when…
I spent quite a bit of time exploring and really only had issues with NPCs dropping me from supercruise in certain systems. I didn't have any cargo holds on my Eagle, so they were disappointed and left me alone. Flying a Lakon Type-6 with full 100 t…
WoW will get #1 just based on numbers.
These lists typically cater to the crowd that was introduced to MMOs through WoW and there is a lot more of them around now. If EverQuest ever topped one of these lists, I'd be surprised.
EQ was my fi…

Bad idea, they may just end up reducing the servers to one again because of population. I'd say it's a good idea cause new players would have a fresh server but considering queues are cross server it won't ma…
