    Neverwinter: PC

    Then there has to be something wrong on my end then, because the graphics are washed out, grainy, and just plain ugly to me. I can appreciate many art styles and have no issue with the way WoW, GW2, Lineage, Diablo, Path of Exile, Swtor, Tera, Aion etc etc look. However this game looks like a...

    Neverwinter: PC

    Guild Wars 2 had a pretty stable launch as well on my end. Usually they are pretty fail though.

    Neverwinter: PC

    I have a top of the line PC. Dual 7970s running with a 3x 27 inch monitor system in 5760 x 1080 reso. While graphics dont necessarly make a good MMO, they sure can make a bad one worse. As far as PS1 goes. Fable 1 has better graphics than this. As far as MMOs are concerned, this is...

    Neverwinter: PC

    And here I was thinking Defiance was bad...this game is garbage. Graphics came straight from the PS1 era and youve got basically only 1 class thats needed and thats the trickster rogue. Rest of the classes may as well not be in the game. No wonder there was very little posted about this...

    Boston Marathon Explosion - Today's Topics: Public Schools

    The fact he hasnt killed himself yet means he wants to live as long as possible and not ready to die. Now if faced with capture, he will kill himself...as the first one did. It was reported that not only was the first guy shot, but he blew himself up as well. There would be reason to believe...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    While I had some positive memories of FF11, leveling sure the hell wasnt one of them. Im really trying to think of an MMO that I played that had a more boring leveling approach. You literally would have to get over 100+ levels to be 75/37 anything and you were killing the same exact mobs...

    SWTOR

    I planned on resubbing for a month or two to just run through the game, but even their account management is terrible. I can log into the game just fine, but when I try to subscribe it says my computer isnt recognized and that I need to input a one time code sent to my email. I wait 30 mins to...

    Most likely you are using the wrong name / pwd combo. Hear me out, I had the same problem. I would log into the SQEnix site and the pwd would work, and I registered the code...if you click active accounts, youll see that it does indeed say you are registered to beta. Now I would try to...

    Is there a secret to getting this game to recognize the controller? I selected the controller option, but it doesnt seem to recognize it being plugged in. Its the standard official xbox wired controller if that makes any difference.

    So where do you download the beta and get this thing started at? Followed the instructions and it shows up under my account, but cant get into beta forums, no matter how many times I change my pwd.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    So what is the trick to getting this beta invite to work? I got my beta key and went onto the FF14 site, it shows up under my services...but it wont let me log into the beta forums. The same name / password that works to get into my account isnt working to go onto the beta site to start the...

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    Very interested how my name got up there because I sure as hell havent said EQ was magic in any sort of way. Feel free to quote where I said EQ was magic.

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    I certainly dont see what you are disagreeing with in my post. I simply stated that the crowd here, for the most part, will skip any and all content possible in their race to max level...thus making the majority of the game ( ie..lvling ) nothing more than something tedious that has to be done.

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    Its because people like Draegan, Tuco, and others here only care about max level content. Someone could create the most engaging, most fun game ever to play, and folks like them will do anything at all possible to skip the actual game part and be max level as soon as possible. Ive been in...

    Defiance

    ..have nothing better to do with your time, are looking for an MMO with zero substance, and dont mind paying $60 for about 15 mins of repetitive gameplay repeated ad-nauseum. On a side note, if you do want the game, send me a PM and we can work something out to save yourself some cash and...

    Defiance

    I made it to EGO 130 or so and just have no desire to play anymore. I may not expect a MMO game to last years, but I sure expect it to last a month at least. This didnt last 2 days. If anyone wants it, donate $25 or so to my paypal and Ill hook you up with whatever info is needed. This is...

    Defiance

    Im not about to write a diatribe about the game, but to me its pretty darn bland and generic. I cant think of a MMO that Ive played in the last 10+ years that I was so bored with, that within hours of starting I couldnt find any reason to keep playing. Entire game thus far is run to a ...

    Defiance

    Thus far this game is pretty shitty. Desync being one of the major problems and lag adding to it. Also the game crashes everytime I finish the area where you have to protect the reactor. Game losses connection to server everytime and I cant go any further. Hell, they cant even bother to...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yes, because we all know what the devs have to say about their game is true. Devs posting on these boards and other boards that arent controlled by themselves is pointless. How many threads did we have back on FoH or whatever site where the devs came into a thread, pumped up the crowd with...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I am curious about the changes too. FF14 was an abortion. 3 zones, maybe 20 diff looking mobs total, only quests being run to a crystal and run to the opposite side of a huge zone that has been copy / pasted over 50x to kill 3 rabbits and run back etc. They would have had to completely...

    Aradune Returns to EQ aka the EQ Nostalgia thread

    Go back and look at all the guilds that did move over to WoW / EQ2 though. Many of them were end game guilds that were sick of the GoD expansion. There is only so much killing of the same mobs over and over throughout raids that you can handle, retention was at an all time low, and the...

    Rift: Planes of Telara

    The actual "rifts" were plain boring. Run to a cloud and stand in the center and AE....AE more....keep AEing...more mobs spawn...more AEing...ad nasuem. No rhyme or reason to it other than to just do it. It was actually a huge step back from Warhammers public quests that at least saw some...

    Rift: Planes of Telara

    If the game is good and engaging, people will play. If the game is bad and stale, people leave after the initial month. Seems pretty cut and dry to me. Hartsman has EQ2 and Rift to his credit which isnt saying much at all. Rift was bland and boring and was able to capitalize on people...

    38 Studios

    I am just ready for everyone that has worked on an MMO to go out and get a job doing something else and let new blood take over. Quite frankly Im sick of the same people getting jobs for different companies making MMOs, and they all suck. Its the same rehashed shit over and over. I dont...

    EQ Never

    Because there is not one reason to be in the open world anymore at all. Have you played MoP? Majority of the dailies all funnel into the same corner of 1 zone so you have 30 people trying to kill 15 mobs or something where the spawn isnt big enough for 2 people, much less 30. Any sort of...

    EQ Never

    I disagree completely. LFD did NOT in fact stop stop the open world from being populated, in fact, I would counter that it populated the world even more so. I have played WoW pretty much its entire lifecyle and have seen all the changes come and go. Prior to LFD, everyone was clustered up...

    EQ Never

    While I can agree that instancing has gotten a tad out of hand, its here to stay. As easy as it is to find and download a bot program these days, every camp worth actually being at would be perma camped 24/7 by bot programs. We can ask devs to ban people, but Im sure we all know the same...

    EQ Never

    What people say they want, and what they actually do are two seperate things. I heard all about this "skill" shit in pvp and people whining and complaining all day long that skill did or didnt matter. WoW then decided to give all those yelling "skill..skillz!!" battlegrounds to play by...

    EQ F2P- Returning Players & Current Content

    Darn sure isnt Trakanon. Logged over there after hearing about a progression guilds and noticed there was only 37 people in general chat. Decided to check population with a /who 1 20 all, 21 40 all etc....and wound up getting approx only 70 people online total. Cazic seems ok so far.

    Well, now what?

    I dont see how this idea would ever work. In every MMO you have those very few that have played the beta, understand the loopholes for mass exp gain from the start, and are anywhere from 15-30 levels higher than others by the end of the second day the game has gone live. So now you have a...

    "Most" top guilds includes maybe 2 guilds, possibly 3 per server that were clearing planes prior to Kunark releasing. You were no special fucking snowflake. Raiding was such a new activity that "most" werent even raiding during the pre Kunark era. It wasnt until epic quests that took people...

    EQ Never

    You are so full of shit its not even funny. Prior to Kunark coming out most people did NOT in fact have full fbss / cof / rbb. Majority of people hadnt even gotten into the planes yet and one was a clear bug where you could have a guild get level 1s up there to loot the planes armor and that...

    Guild Wars 2

    And I dont understand why people are always asking for a "WoW killer" when they are not. I dont care if a game has 10m+ subs or 200k+ subs, I just want an MMO that keeps my interest for more than a month. Every new MMO released is fun for less than a month and its back to square one again...

    Guild Wars 2

    I certainly wasnt expecting it to dethrone WoW or anything, but I sure did expect it to last more than 1 month in my rotation. It really blows my mind at just how bad the recent MMO releases have been. I played EQ for 4-5 years solid, then moved on to FF11 for a year or so, then stayed in...

    EQ Never

    Seems pretty clear to me. When RMT is involved, it effects everyones gameplay, not just those that choose to partake in it. Take Diablo 3 for example, the actions of 1 effect many. One guy bots over 50 accounts and floods the economy, inflating gold prices overnight. This leads to reduced...

    EQ Never

    My biggest concern so far is that Scott said this game has been scrapped once or twice now and rebuilt up. Have they learned nothing over the past decade of failed MMO after failed MMO? There are literally 10+ MMOs that have completely flopped that they could have learned from on what to do...
