  • I really don't like being this snarky, but this post is really a bunch of bullshit except for one point. I say this purely in respect to the content of the post and I'm not trying to attack the poster, I'm simply tired of these kinds of inflammatory…

  • When I look at the second to last screenshot, the one above the baby, I think to myself: 'where the hell is the game, hidden behind the add-ons?' When I look at screens that are similar to that it is just one more reason that I think add-ons are a…
  • Originally posted by T67U89 I purchased this game on Thurs and have already cancelled my account and requesting a full refund through paypal. This game is the saddest excuse for a "Next-Gen" MMO i've ever seen. In fact, Trion should be sued for fa…
  • Originally posted by r3volt21 Originally posted by The_Grump How has Trion handled: bug squashing, server stability, griefers and any other elements you think should be commented on?   Hi Grump,   I am in rift headstart and played fou…
  • Originally posted by Shawk With the news of what is happending with Rift now, with the server clustering and their dungeon finder, I thought I would make a thread {Mod Edit}   It use to be you would have to get a group outside a dungeon, go into…
  • Originally posted by nomss Originally posted by dreamscaper Originally posted by Pro-Pain Not yet. ( imo) They need a few more months to flesh out content, add missing features ( chocobos etc), and streamline the ui a bit more.  But…
  • Originally posted by Ayonar Originally posted by pesh131 the people who leave because they have to group, you know, INTERACT with others, in order to progress, will be the ones we never wanted in the first place. They won't be happy until the…
  • Originally posted by jpnole First let me say I am a fan of GW and I will be buying GW2 and all DLCs and expansions. I also have no problems subbing 2 games at a time as I've done it many times. That being said, I'm not so sure GW2 can be considered …
  • There seem to be only be two real causes of MMORPGs going wrong: (1) Games are underdeveloped/unfinished because of development team issues (poor design, missing features) or production company issues (pushed out too soon, insufficient funding giv…
  • Originally posted by Yamota Seriously, why should we, who are not bound to an NDA, not be able to post second hand info that you hear from people under NDA? I could care less about an NDA which I did not sign but I do want to know what is going on…
  • I always enjoyed the holidays in FFXI, so if I played FFXIV I'd think that this would be enjoyable as well. But. I haven't heard, read or been directed to anything saying that FFXIV is fixed enough to be 'cute' with little holiday extras. Gratned, t…
  • Originally posted by Loke666 Originally posted by sandboxboi People seem so comfortable with the fact that because themepark mmo's earn more money than sandbox mmo's, devs lean towards themepark design.    We have far too many games launched and…
  • Originally posted by Wolfy2449 Sigh, that starts to get depressing. Everyone doesnt read the thread and everyone just answers negatively or positively without taking into account my main point.   My main point is: Why the majority of people do…
  • Originally posted by Cruoris   slightly misleading title.   i dont mean have a blank slate. i definately like atmosphere, and culture.   what i dont like, is when games (and they all seem to do this) irrevocably mix gameplay with the sto…
  • Judging by the results it seems that the actions of people in-game do, in some real way, reflect their ethical stance in real life. This, of course, completely excludes people that do any sort of roleplaying and this also means that when you see peo…
  • Originally posted by spidii NcSoft is pretty garbage, everyone knows that and their name being anywhere near GW2 definitely sucks. But in a lot of cases such as Activision or EA, "they" (the investor) actually controls the development schedule and c…
  • Originally posted by arenasb Whats the new direction? All that blog is saying is learn to play. I believe that is the new direction. For people that played through the WotLK content, excluding dungeons, WoW instances seemed a bit too easy. When…
  • Originally posted by Jimmy_Scythe And the term Massive can have different meanings depending on genre. But I'm getting a little ahead of myself. The problem with MMOs is the RPG part. There's a huge list of tropes and genre obligations that get ti…
  • Originally posted by scythe99 I been wondering when will we see the "MMO" come back into mmorpg. Most mmorpg's now a days are bascally single player games with a glorified irc chat system for most of the game play. Anyone else miss the old times whe…
  • Originally posted by page I understand that you can solo play in the world map, and group in the dungeon finder, but look at it this way it's an mmo. Every time I leave my house in real life it's to indirectly meet new people..The Mall..the gym... W…
