It's gone beyond just spending real money to skip parts of the game you don't enjoy or bypassing a long grind. Now there are cash shop items (non-cosmetic) you can't earn by actually playing the game. So you reach a point where you can't progress …
I don't mind repetition if there's something to be learned. For instance, fighting games have a lot of repetition but I never get bored of them. There's always room to improve your technique and timing. Even though the fights are between same set…

Riot and Blizzard are so full of shit
They say they dont allow any talk of social justice or politics or "sensitive issues" - but look at their previous events
Yeah.
So basically if we can profit off it - we are totally fine w…

The sad part is that you're not exaggerating. When I tried ArcheAge …

I think that games should simply skip the crafting and focus on the other aspects of the game, like the RPG elements that are the root of the genre. Let the people buy their gear from NPC vendors.
I've always though…

Mini-games? No thank you. I do agree that handling crafting is a tough cookie to crack
For me, it is a question of me vs my characters. I don't need to use my skill in some mini-game to craft. I'd rather use my character's ski…
I don't know if they work as a whole but they don't work for me. I don't pay much attention to them or care if I miss them.
In many cases they seem like desperation on the games part. As if the game can't stand on it's own merit, they have to …
Depends on the point of the game. In puzzle games I'll try for hours before resorting to looking up the answer. In any other genre, I'll lookup the answer within minutes of being stuck.
I very rarely craft anything. Now that auction houses have become so popular, players will undercut each other to point of losing money just to improve their crafting skill, which means I can buy that crafted item cheaper than it would have cost me…
Don't hurt under age pixels!
Kill the adult ones by the tens of thousands, rob their dead bodies, desecrate their corpses and burn their village to the ground... that's a-okay and totally normal. As a matter of fact, we'll even reward you for i…
Maybe because I grew up long before the mobile phone era I don't get it but.. why would somebody want to play a game on 5 inch screen with clunky controls when you can play on a 55 inch screen with a gamepad?

Great HD for setting up an NAS. Just one of these HD's could store upwards of 3000+ movies in 1080p format, and 10's of thousands of hours of music. Add two and you could have a home based server for hosting g…
Now that CPU's are getting into the 28 / 32 core counts, if Amdahl's Law still holds true, we're going to start seeing serious diminishing returns on adding more cores.
Like you said, it's nice for bragging rights (maybe).
