    Ashes of Creation

    WoW was a new type of game for most people who had never played EQ, or MuDs, etc. But WoW is way old now and the vast majority of players don't care about the old stuff. Even most of WoW's playerbase moved on to newer games and game types a long time ago. If they wanted more of the same then...

    2025-2026 NFL Season Thread - God hates the Chargers

    The boomer derail is taking up valuable NFL discussions and insights. I'm a boomer, proud of it. American boomers won, AT EVERYTHING. Y'all just jealous. Now let's get back to arguing about the important life changing NFL topics of the day.

    2025-2026 NFL Season Thread - God hates the Chargers

    Most first rounders are a bust. So, like every other sports fan, go back to the hopium pipe.

    2025-2026 NFL Season Thread - God hates the Chargers

    Only great moment of this year's superbowl. Even better than the patsies losing.

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

    False equivalence. And if you know anything about the Raiders and their fans, we are never fair weather. Although, I will admit to being very tested when they hired that idiot coach from the Patriots and then gave fuckwit Brady part of the team.

    Riot Games MMO

    Frankly the format is stale. The cost to create a mmo is so high that innovation rarely happens. And the people that play mmos have invested years of time in characters older than their kids (who are in college now) so they refuse to leave ancient geriatric fossilized games. And the younger...

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

    Sometimes the herd mentality of this board reminds me of the karens protesting ice.

    Not necessarily. All that really matters in modern business is who can afford the better lawyers and how long you can afford to pay them. Any business worth anything is usually in a lawsuit of some sort. And typically more than one. It takes a long time to get a court date for business lawsuits...

    For All Mankind

    Couldn't finish the first season. Too fucking preachy and forgiving of the Soviets. Ended up fast forwarding to the moon parts and then gave up. I like much of Apple TV's other scifi though.

    Pluribus

    Same, only seen a few episodes. Great premise, kind of hilarious, looking forward to the rest. I'm new to Apple TV. Surprised how good most of their Science Fiction is. Woke casting but they don't preach for the most part.

    Murderbot

    Finally got around to trying Apple TV a couple months ago, mainly to see Foundation. Didn't try this show at first, seemed goofy. But I ended up really liking it. Something about a Republican constantly having to save idiot liberal hippies from themselves is endlessly funny to me.

    Ashes of Creation

    It will be interesting to see what happens with this. Whoever is in charge now will want to continue developing the game. But with all the original devs gone and with the possibility that they are farming it out to cheap overseas devs, it doesn't sound promising at all. Especially if the people...

    Ashes of Creation

    Just a guess, but it sounds like he had to give his outside investors more than 50 percent and they voted him out. Back stabbing at that level is very common, Steve Jobs was ousted from Apple by the CEO he hired away from Pepsi (or Coke?). Took years before the Apple board realized their mistake...

    Ashes of Creation

    It's probably just normal layoffs for a gaming company. Most devs are not needed for the whole development cycle. Money management could be an issue to though. Right now at 7am pst mid week, Ashes has more players online than ESO and Ashes is just an alpha game. But doom and gloom is par for...
