Here's the thing about "flop":
If the expectation (and MMORPG.COM is helping this along) is that TOR wil "revolutionize" the MMO industry, then it will flop, based on that expectation alone.
Rift failed to do that. Which is why it's a "flop". …

You will always have the problem of PvP and PvE rulesets creating conflicts in the design of the game. What works for PvP balance tends to make PvE problematic, and vice versa.
WoW is a PvE game with PvP bolted on, and it shows, badly, in a lot o…

Lol, but the game industry is something that has slowly been dragged out and is plummeting.
You know we heard the same argument about Donkey Kong back in '81, right?

ToR is "revolutionary" only in the sense that it's the most hyped new kid on the block. "WoW-killer" is copy from a PowerPoint slide, and so is "revolutionary".
It's evolutionary, at best.
The rest (to include the official MMORPG.com content) i…
You know, I'm pretty much convince the OP has terminal reading comprehension problems.
I basically agree with him, but offer the caveat that the virtual world's engine will determine how things play out, what players will be able to do, how well t…

There are definit…

Pretty hard to reproduce what actually happened when you can virtually edit the "record" of the event to reflect your current storyline, now isn't it?
"He who controls the present, controls the past. He who controls the past, controls the future."
Originally posted by Nerf09 I don't see how WOW fits into this. You can't out-think your opponent in WOW, you can only out-grind your opponent.
If you're talking about PvE, yes. But teamwork is vital even in PvE, and that's what we…

I"d leave WoW pretty much the way it is, and concentrate on a new MMO with an updated engine that allows for a sandbox approach.
It's aging, and while it's still profitable, use the profit to build that new MMO.
Which is what Blizz is doing.
