Dude, little girls could give jack shit about the 'source'.

Boring as shit comes to mind when I think of Rift. Lore, gameplay, races, you name it.

I agree, I'm sure something 'EQ like' in an updated engine is doable but all of that costs money. Pantheon has actually proved that if you don't have some capital up front to get the ball rolling, the odds of getting something made are virtually nil. Manpower, server infrastructure, support...

Because it was 13 years ago? Before WoW, before Steam, before the average gamer only stays with an MMO for 2-3 months tops, etc.

I don't think I'm that wrong. Understand that Pantheon was hyped (by Brad himself) months before the KS. Understand that we're to believe that thousands upon thousands are waiting for someone to just mention that they are making this type of game and the KS should of have 4-5k contributorson...

There are numerous things that make EvE unique, not just one thing. Nothing which is even remotely comparable to Everquest 2.0. Eve also was created at a time before the market was saturated with all these products thus had time to build it's playerbase to what it has now. The game took 3...

Which is why almost every little girl is into this. It's a movie for girls without being called Barbie. Let's just accept the fact that nobody on this board is the target audience.

Seriously doubt it since I would think the card would say minions with charge (like UTH). Plus that would be pretty OP.

Sorry you're wrong. Blame the shitty KS, blame Brad but I can tell you that Pantheon most certainly did not prove this type of game can not only get 200-300k people butmaintainthat sub base. People played EQ and stayed playing EQ because it quite simply was the only option (or one of the very...

The Lady Stoneheart stuff is at the end of Feast, I think the Jaime/Brienne scene is in Dragons. From the fire and ice wiki: Brienne appears briefly at Pennytree when Jaime camps there, whatever word she shouted apparently making the Brotherhood spare her. She asks Jaime to help her save...

The last time we see Brienne is when Jaime sees her and notices she's 'different'. She also says that she know where Sansa is (how?).

I think the bigger problem I have with that scene (and the show in general) is how the show goes out of it's way to whitewash Cersei (and Tyrion too). How many times now have we seen where Cersei is the one that takes a back seat, Cersei is the one who is 'vicitimized', whereas in the books...

One of the more interesting things I took from this episode (besides the Jaime rape) was that Tywin acknowledges that Dany has 3 dragons. If I remember in the books it was only a rumor to those in KL and Tywin dimissed it as such anyway.

They are going to run into the same issue if they don't have something tangible to show. In fact, they may even have a harder road to climb if they are trying the crowdfunding route since most of the people who are interested in this type of game followed this project, they know what was...

Haha, I love the insinuation that only smart people played EQ.

It wasn't rape in the books. It clearly was rape in the show. From the book: here was no tenderness in the kiss he returned to her, only hunger. Her mouth opened for his tongue. "No," she said weakly when his lips moved down her neck, "not here. The septons . . ." "The Others can take the...

I always questioned that figure considering the number of supporters never matched total number of registered users on the site, unless it was counting 'angel investors'.

I agree that ranked is basically zoo and hunter, I would guess at least 70% in my experience. Hopefully the naxx cards breathes new life into the game because it's literally the same decks all the time. You never see fun or gimmicky decks in ranked anymore.

This is what I meant earlier about overestimating interest to the point if people giving money. There is a market for this, but nowhere near enough for just the idea of it. It's ironic you say you still support the idea just without Brad, where when this started people supported it only...

It brought Blizzard a shitload of money. Including your $15 a month.

I think at the end of the day, Brad (and lets face it more than a few on here) vastly overestimated that the amount of interest in this type of game would carry them to funding when there is nothing to show. We also learned a lot about the 'die hard' EQ fanboy that longs for that type of game...

Always funny to see some of the more dumb plays, especially in arena. Playing against Pally, I pulled out Rag on turn 8 (already had a defias on the board), which in turn hit him (instead of his minion) in the face. Brings his health down to 6. He plays Truesilver, dread cosair and a molten...

So who has the cliff notes version of the interview and can summarize what was said?

Think of it like this, either one side (Brad) or the other (devs) are lying about how much they were 'backpaid'. Now ask yourself who does lying benefit the most in this situation, the devs or Brad who the money went directly too (keep in mind, it was his own account, not VRI). Now also think...

I used to actually own that issue and I agree, she had no business being there but it was all about getting a woman on the cover so they could sell more magazines. The irony is I think she basically fell off the face of the earth after that article. I also remember one of Brad's quotes in that...

The game was always designed with accessibility in mind, it's not supposed to be as complex as MTG. If there is one thing Blizzard knows how to do, it's in accessibility. Instants are never going to happen because the game (and cards) are not designed for the player to play during the...

This stuff about the money is shady at best and only because he chooses to not be forthcoming. He took people money and said a majority of it was to 'backpay' people for their work. Well some of the devs are openly stating they didn't get a whole lot so what happened with the rest of it...

Looks like Rogue might make an appearance anyway. Anna Paquin's Rogue Will be Present for X-Men: Days of Future Past - ComingSoon.net

Got to say, that was one of the first things I thought when the site was down yesterday.

Wow it didn't take long for the dirty laundry to start coming out. That long post was rambling but the underlying point of it is that Brad cannot manage a project. If you don't have a good captain steering the ship, the ship is eventually going to run aground. This once again proves that he...

The small irony in this is KTAM was a strong supporter of this project, even put up a 24 hour 'pledge drive' in the final hours of the KS in the small hope it would reach goal. Looks like reality hit them in the face. Lets be real, this project was dead about 10 days into the KS when it...

It's literally like a replay of the implosion of Vanguard just on a much smaller scale and happening on the internet vs. the parking lot. What's better is watching the drama in those comments. Nirrtix (and others) are batshit insane, still blaming Rerolled too btw. Brad saying he can't even...

That's stuff they've started while the KS was going on (remember the first twitch interview with Vu?). So Salim saying they had this 'demo'/prototype or whatever else you want to call it pre-KS is a load of shit. It took like 10 days before the first Sunken Sanctum screenshot was even shown...

Have you seen any evidence of this prototype or this 'polished visual demo'? Here is what I don't get. The goal is to raise money, in any way you can. How is not putting that stuff out, no matter how simple or alpha it was, worse than the situation they found themselves in where they have...

I'm trying to recall the last time there was this much 'pull' with a Disney movie, even a Pixar one. The movie has created this franchise where anything that's Frozen labeled is almost guaranteed to make money. There are little girls lining up outside Idina Menzel's broadway show just so they...

Yea, Salim saying they had a demo (pre-KS or otherwise) is flat out bullshit. During the KS, they (I think it was Ben, not sure) stated they had 'nothing else' at one point when they were getting screamed at as to why they had not put more stuff on the KS. If you're going to lie about stuff...

I dunno, 150k is a lot of money. Some of those people didn't just donate pocket change but hundreds of dollars. If that was you and you've basically been told 'it'll happen when it happens', I'd think you would have a hard time with that, unless you just don't value money. How many times can...

The fanboys aren't going to admit that this is toast anyway. That only validates common sense.

I'm sure according to the 'apprentice devs' it's all Rerolled's fault. Talk is cheap in this industry when you're asking for people's money and that's exactly what this project has been since it started, talk and nothing else. They were lucky that even got what they did for the KS, once that...

Yea my daughter would be all into that. Send a link.
