    Overwatch

    What the fuck is this garbage. The most obnoxious visual style and character design I can imagine. Worn out TF2 gameplay and MOBA character mechanics. Does anyone want another F2P pvp only shooter?

    Destiny: Rise of Iron 9.20.16

    These are just my own unscientific observations. Toughness only increases your health, not your shields. You're taking damage against your health once your shield bar is red. On my Titan I can go a full toughness build and my shield still pops just the same as a low toughness build...

    I just received the same survey email and when I clicked the link it said I wasn't eligible to take the survey. Ok...

    Veteran adventures are so buggy that the bugs have bugs. They should have just disabled War of the Wilds until it is properly fixed and designed. I can't even fathom the thought process that went into developing and testing that instance.

    Pantheon is now a choose-your-own-adventure biblical fantasy fan fiction novel?

    Addons were even more of a crutch during that time period. Blizzard hadn't restricted the API much yet. EmergencyMonitor: A real-time sorted list of the lowest health in the raid. Let you 1 button 'smart heal' the entire raid. HateMe: 1 button tank spam Decursive: 1 button cleanse the...

    They are so fucking loud. Also, maybe it was bugged but the first adventure you do on Dominion side has an alarm + crowd noise looping constantly that made me turn my sound off.

    That's assuming the majority of the player base are people that were raiding 10 years ago and not those that learned to raid in the LFR era.

    So there's a Raid team AMA going on over at Reddit today.We are the WildStar Raids Team and we designed the most hardcore raids Nexus has ever seen! Ask of Anything! : WildStar I'm curious to hear some thoughts on the realities of 20/40 man raids with lockouts per raid ID. With the lockouts...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Building pointless Enjin hosted sites just to feel special is exactly what I would expect people to do to perpetuate this circle jerk. There are only so many ways to rearrange the same 5 concept art images.

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    I think the bitching is justified. It's not that the tutorial and other hangups are so terrible that they can't be dealt with. It's that their existence is indicative of the developer being out of touch with what you're looking for in a game. If they made those decisions on the simple things...

    As a warning: I refunded an Aion pre-order years ago and NCSoft banned my master account. Didn't chargeback, just a refund through support.

    PC gamers know how to move with WADS and click an NPC. An inexperienced player may not understand more advanced MMO concepts but no tutorial teaches that shit anyways. Knowing how to troubleshoot a technical issue or something is a completely different skill set. The fact they even get on the...

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    I totally agree with you on having no idea what MMO developers are thinking with tutorials like Wildstar/TESO. I can't believe for a second that they have metrics that show that the tutorial increased player retention. Most players have very short attention spans and are not stupid. They can...

    Yeah, you're right. Tera did that well before Neverwinter. I overlooked it because I think of them as more movement abilities rather than a built in dodge mechanic, but that's just semantics. Man, I loved the priest class in Tera. Wildstar medic wishes it could be half that cool.
