    The Elder Scrolls Online

    They would have to steer away from achievements then that are of the kind "kill a 100 gnolls". Or worse, kill a hundred Sabretooth Gnolls, which would mean you have to kill them pretty much in the same location...... I guess the whole concept of "achievements" makes me a bit dubious since...

    Neverwinter: PC

    Even though I own hard copies of most of those games, this is just a too good and convenient deal. All the expansionpacks included, awesome. Thanks for the link.

    Neverwinter: PC

    Has anyone done a foundry quest yet that comes a bit closer to the complexity of a DDO quest? So far I have only seen rooms, corridors stairs and shallow water where you can wade through, and some traps. Stuff like underwater-play, complex trigger sequences, more interesting traps and such...

    Neverwinter: PC

    The Foundry is the thing that should make this game stand out, however it does need a solid set of tools to really work. Players can create great stories and dialogue, in time the quallity stuff will be there. However, the Foundry needs to provide enough tools so that they can indeed make...

    Firefall

    This is pretty much my experience with this game too. There were also a couple of nasty bugs with their itemserver/database but they have been mostly resolved now. The combat is really fun, but after a few days of thumping and doing tornado's with a bunch of peeps(their take on public quests) I...

    If only this were already available:http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releas...-umc012912.php I must say there are a lot of bad experiences floating around the internet concerning this procedure. I realize that there is a bias on more bad stories hitting the internet then good ones, but I see...

    Neverwinter: PC

    I have played DDO a lot, and that game feels more true to dice D&D to me, exept that the Eberron setting did nothing for me. I like the Neverwinter setting better, and also the fact that it feels much more like an open world MMO, even with all the quests being instanced. I am afraid many D&D...

    Aleksei, check your PM's. Was able to snatch 2 keys from the mmorpg.com giveaway, so one left for the first poster that sais "They should just remake Everquest, it was the bestest game ever!" Because it's true.

    Neverwinter: PC

    I am looking more forward to playing this then FFXIV at the moment (I am in both beta's). It is all very personal, but I never really could get into the FF style. The graphics of FFXIV are top-notch though (max settings), extremely crisp and detailed with beautiful artwork. The environments...

    Wheel of Time series

    I agree with you and Morph_Hammer. I thought he handled the book and the Last Battle very well, untill the shockingly short, bland and somewhat weird epilogue. I probably missed something about Rand living on in Moridins body, but that was not really the bad part. One thing that irked me was...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Also got my invite. I have never bought or tested FF XIV so all I can think off is that they liked my hardware specs(i7 3930 and Radeon HD7970). I remember submitting a dxdiag during the beta application. Or maybe I just got lucky.

    5 Best Games of All Time

    Most played/addicted: Doom Wing Commander 1 Might and Magic 6 Everquest Far Cry 1 I replayed the last game about 4 times from start to finish which is incredable considering the fact that I have actually finished about 7 singleplayer games in total (of about 200 I bought over the...

    Neverwinter: PC

    @ Caliane: Well, I compared it with like 5 different games, so I figured I couldn't go wrong there. But yeah, it doesn't really tell you what Neverwinter is like. I played DDO quit a bit and enjoyed it. I never liked the central hub in DDO and the so-called exploration areas are still...

    Neverwinter: PC

    Graphics/smoothness of Rift meets Reckoning (actiony combat) meets D&D (choose abilities on hotbar, feats) meets Neverwinter atmosphere meets WoW (Lots of Quests, markers, shiny trail leads you to where you need to go). There are some twists that make it more interesting, like Invocation...

    EQ Never

    Ah, ok, I misunderstood your answer. You both played the same text-based Zork, you just disagreed with his comparison to UO. I totally missed that era even though I am old enough, it took some time before the digital age hit the Netherlands. So Zork: Grand Inquisitor feels already ancient to me.

    I think he was talking abouthttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zork, while you may be talking abouthttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zork:_Grand_Inquisitorwhich came a lot later.

    Pathfinder Online

    Since I started this thread I have a feeling I should be the one to give some counterweight to the negative notions about this game, but it is hard to root for a game that is so early in development. Also, Ryan certainly comes off as an ass, and I do not even have any history with the the guy or...

    EQ Never

    I agree with you, you had ultimate (PvE) freedom in EQ. I think the people who would not agree with you are those that strongly emphasize player-to-player interaction with features like territorial control, control of resources and the resulting PvP gameplay. Having said this, I felt that...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I agree with this. EQ music was very varied, from breezy panflute songs, to classical guitar pieces to the uppety Rivervale song. And let us not forget the "mood" clips: short, repeating fragments that enhanced the mood/environment. This is easily my favorite...

    That is an amazing reconstruction of West Freeport, awesome nostalgia.

    Age of Wushu/Wulin - US Open Beta

    Yes, I have seen them around a lot, they seem very active. They have a large recruiting thread on the US forums also, in the Guildsection. I realize now though that there is going to be a Euro-server too (Age of Wulin), handled by gpotato. Since it is not clear when the Euro-server releases I...

    Age of Wushu/Wulin - US Open Beta

    There are instances (dungeons) like Twilight Village where people party up: I found this snippet on the forums: There are also the escort missions that you can do with your guild: protect a caravan or some, with the possibility of getting attacked by players. I have not done these, all I know is...

    Age of Wushu/Wulin - US Open Beta

    Here is a second review from massively.joystick, pretty honest and to the point imo.http://massively.joystiq.com/2012/12...ll-never-play/ I am also in Wudang, do not have the 300 Liang yet to start a Guild though. I can't promise that i will be playing this for months.Also, I am on Euro-time...

    Age of Wushu/Wulin - US Open Beta

    That sounds like a way, however the amount of money a victim loses is so small that it would not really make for an interesting bounty. I think I lost 1 Liang or so(do not even know if the attacker gets this), and the minimum bounty you have to put on your killer is 10 liang. In Eve the money...

    Age of Wushu/Wulin - US Open Beta

    I am playing this currently and it is interesting, to say the least. And confusing. It is a pretty huge game in terms of depth and content, having been released in China some time ago. My experience is very fragmented, and I have been reading a ton of (mini) guides just to get a basic grasp of...

    EQ Never

    Faction and the racial landscape in EQ was pretty much my favorite feature of EQ. Combined with the huge amount of (racial) starting cities spread over the globe, it made for the best MMO world, never to be replicated ever since imo. You mentioned the Trolls in Neriak: there are many such...

    Well, now what?

    That was an interesting read about playerbehaviour, and finding solutions for the pitfalls of player-created content in a smallscale MUD. I can only wonder how hard it will be to develop a system that will be both fun and not get out of hand for a much larger audience.

    Well, now what?

    Agreed. Let me give the link to the thread that I made about Pathfinder Online too, since I put a whole list of links in there to the separate blogs about the gamesystems, for easy picking and reading:http://www.rerolled.org/showthread.p...hfinder-Online

    Asheron's Call 2, Brand New Server Dawnsong Turbine bringing back!

    This is how I remember it too. The landscape graphics were a lot shinier then Everquest and AC, but I remember that there wasn't a single structure in the game that you could actually enter. Every ruin, windmill, temple whatever was just a few textures. Did not play long, so I may have missed...

    Pathfinder Online

    Ah, that is a bit later then I thought. Beta is actually supposed to be an early release(characters will not be wiped), they have been getting some flak for calling it beta. What they want is gradually build up of the world by motivated players (you pay a sub) whose feedback in those initial...

    Rift: Planes of Telara

    I am currently enjoying a second bout of playing Rift. The expansion is indeed huge. I still enjoy the rifts and events, unfortunately the I.A.'s in the lower level zones in the xpack are very underpopulated, I am often alone or maybe with 1 or 2 others. This is on Icewatch, a very busy...
