I'm a fairly hard sort and an Atheist. I don't like excuses and I've had a job since I was 15. Don't burn time placing blame, just fix it if you can. I am pro USA, pro NRA and believe you should work for your eats. I'm a hopeless romantic; I love poetry as I feel it is a window into ones soul. Being corny is ok! Be yourself, no one else can!

Its in Alpha, its an Indie MMO, It's in it's 3rd year of development by enthusiastic people working after hours who love PVE MMOs. I've personally played it this past weekend. It has a long way to go and glitches are there but since it's in Alpha I …
Pantheon is a game where you have to actually play it. That and reputation matters. Manners and making friends matters. That's what old school Everquest was really about. I never had to sit around and look for a group, never. It's main drawback is t…
Without content that changes, Without an expansive world 'with' content what you have is repetition and PVP...which is just another extension of repetition. The game might play well, Archeage played well but in what, under 4 hours you pushed through…

Another thing to consider is great graphics isn't easy to pull off in MMOs, especially in a seamless world. If anything, it's an indicator of quality, not an indicator of shallowness like it might be with single player games…
Everyone seems to be more concerned about rumors and behind the scenes stuff and less about how good the game looks and how great it will be. I wish I could afford a PC that would play this game but I don't. I have to sit on the sidelines and watch.…

What I see is with ONLY PvP aspect is that most players will want to log on maybe 2-3 hours a day and IF battles are looking in their favor stick around for that 2-3 hour block. But going all day on the weeken…
They have a 'lack of content' issue. Thus, the PVP. It's as simple as that. Any game tagged as an MMORPG heavy in PVP has spent their coin on game mechanics, not story, or immersive content. So many other games with good PVP in them, this title will…
Hartman the hack. I don't believe for a second XL Games does not have variables in their coding systems. With different regions, variables are always going to be necessary. I sucked down the AA koolaid like everyone else and quit when the first box …
There were several reasons the devs made this shift. One was for macro users and botters. Before, they could use a macro and a single combat ability to gain skill for any and all combat skills. Now, they have to use each skill to raise each skill, m…
Well the author of this article is at least on the right track with his opinion. I'm sure some will disagree but he's actually not far off. There are alot of clones and repeated content. Outrageous cash shops and immature players. For myself, I've k…
Originally posted by kaiser3282 The reason games like MO and Darkfall have failed is because of terrible management of the game. Loads of bugs that went unfixed for many monhs (if they ever got fixed at all), no communication with the playerbase and…
