I pretty much agree with that. I think if anything you err on the low side with tech. For me WoW is way too low and VG is a bit too high. But I"m what I would consider an enthusiast so in reality VG is way to high if you want to get a good chunk of people in your demographic. I"m sure it"s...

Really? Meh I hate the WoW ones, they look like kids. bald kids no less heh. Havent played Horizons though. These Gnomes have huge heads, big ears and funky facial hair. I dont like that particular model much but overall they look good. Or well... good as in how they should look heh. By...

Err, it"s a Gnome, I think it looks like it"s supposed to look. What game you all think did them correctly?

Were the WoW servers crappy or was it just that there were way too many people on them? Ran like ass for me in the begining but I assumed that was because it was too overcrowded.

I read it all, and I wasnt trying to be too much of a prick there. I didnt quote it all because it was long and it annoys me when people quote big posts in there entirety. However I could have taken any portion of your post and it applies. That was a rant about a game you havent tried, which is...

Well, after reading that I would say you absolutely made the right decision not to play. If you feel that strongly having never played it, I"d truely worry about your health if you did. Stay far away, in fact, I wouldnt even read these threads if I were you!

It"s also much more ambitious. Size, scope, features are all far beyond WoW at release and possibly even after WoWs expansion. Sigils problem was over reaching, in my opinion. They tried to do too much, or didnt settle for less than they wanted to do given the budget and time they had. I"d...

If that were true WoW could have done what it did for 17 dollars and 52 cents. Of course budget matters. It"s not a guarantee of success, is the point I think you all are trying to make.

He argued budget didnt matter. WoW cost more than any other MMO by a huge margin in most cases, thus being inefficient by his logic.

By that logic WoW was extremely inefficient.

Again though, while I"m sure nobody likes that fact, it"s like predicting the sun rise. No MMO I"ve ever played was "complete", and some less so than others. Probably the most complete by far was WoW, and they had a much larger budget, lower tech, less game world and features and even still had...

Yeah Vault of Heroes is listed as a "Standard" dungeon, which basically means it"s just a consolidation of mobs with maybe some names. But I remember there being quite a few.

BTW... I still dont get agro in this game. It seems screwy. Some mobs are linked. Some are social. Some, you hit one and the others in the pack will slowly wander over to join the one you pulled, then agro when they get in range... sometimes not even then. Some stuff will agro, you can run...

Yeah they"ve been fooling around with that stuff obviously. I learned a rogue skill prior to last patch by killing a Lizardman dude. I"m not a rogue... still got the skill though for like a day. This is why I like the State of the Game posts, I just like to know what"s going on.

I say it was release worthy, although it wasnt a stellar release. Still comparitively it did pretty well IMO. Better than say EQ2s release, which is a top of the line MMO as well, and I enjoyed that game too. Shit if they would have release the end of this month it could have been a really...
