Charging a sub for a MMO that doesn't exist?

Holy shit the forum access scheme is hilarious. Wonder if he's picking up dat unemployment check as well.

I'd take a 3m MMO from Jacobs over a 300m EA MMO anyday. The Depths goal is quite close.

Those animations are embarrassing.

Haven't been following Wildstar for very long but can someone explain how they got away with a 7 year dev cycle?

The problem with moving to Texas or Florida is living in Texas or Florida.

Well that's exactly what happened.. HBO paid for it. A Larry David kickstarter would have been funded in minutes with the promise of physical media though. Everquest was never super mainstream so Brad needs a sugar-daddy like Arrested Development got with Netflix. Maybe if he sells his soul...

Curb Your Enthusiasm.

Sounds awesome.. except for the certain classes part.

Paradise compared to the American Prison Industrial Complex.

In your case, false equivalencies are King.

Why should a instant skip content ability be available to a selected class at all in a game that is focused on combat? Balancing around this single ability becomes nightmarish if it saves you 30-60min of waiting or re-clearing. And trivializes travel in general.

You don't see a problem there?

Classes having useful, unique buffs/abilities for a group is a good thing and I'm not arguing against that. IMO ports fall into a different category entirely and should be handled, ideally, by the gameworld instead of a specific class.

Hahahahaha. So you want me to design the travel system in Pantheon blindly. I'm pointing out the design issues of classwalling ports and why it is a bad idea. Nostalgia is one thing, but wanting the lack of classwalled ports doesn't mean I want the game to be a WoW-clone.
