    I guess it would be nice to see something that has some identity to the game itself. Almost everything we've seen so far doesn't really give me any sort of indication of what pantheon could look like. Whether that's concept art of classes or mockups of actual possible locations in the game.

    What did you just read?

    I thought it was good but it kind of slowed down near the end. I also didn't like how it ended, too predictable. I just finished book 1 of The First Law trilogy (Abercrombie). I'm going to sneak in book 2 but I doubt I'll get to book 3 before Words of Radiance.

    I missed this during that episode. Knowing that and what we know now at the end of this past episode makes it even more likely it's Hart.

    Broken record but considering how easy it is, it's mind blowing how none of this was done prior to the kickstarter.

    I still say there is something not right with that character. It feels too convienent that he shoots the guy in the head after seeing the kids. Almost like he knows that Ledeuw being alive would show the real killer is still out there.

    I've heard WoW described in a lot of ways but never in the way that you just did. I mean EQ combat was very slow, almost to the point of non-engaging at times depending on the class. So anything faster than that is considered 'action-based' now?

    The conversation goes back to 'how many are really interested in this type of game' and for those that love EQ and hate everything else, I get the sentiment that if you played EQ then you want a game like Pantheon and I don't think that's true either. That was my point about EQ players in...

    Sounds interesting, I'm not the biggest fan of that type of combat style but it's been a long time since I've played something like that either. I just started up the Witcher since I just picked up Witcher 2, are they any mods (witcher 1) that are worth getting, specifically graphic mods?

    Yes there were other games around at the time but they weren't a better product than EQ at the time. Once a better product did come on the market (vanilla WoW), EQ players couldn't jump off the boat fast enough. I do agree with the sentiment that just because one played and enjoyed EQ...

    I think it's funny how you think WoW (and others like it) are so easy to blow though it's content when you have admitted that you've never played WoW, let alone been in a high end raiding guild in WoW.

    If you hype a game to have a certain number of features and the game does not deliver on those features then don't be surprised when the fans of that game feel let down. Vanguard not only failed to launch with many of those features but some of which never made it into the game. That game was...

    How else do you judge a game then? I played Vanguard at launch. It was a piece of shit on numerous levels. It doesn't matter how good it is underneath, if it launches with bugs and it's incomplete, guess what, it's garbage. Just like every other game that has launched with bugs/incomplete...

    Congratz, you are one of a very small minority who thought Vanguard was good. Despite how it turned out after the fact, it has one of the worst launches ever in history and the saying always goes, first impressions are everything in this industry especially for an MMORPG. SoE isn't going to...

    So what did Brad say that made people jump ship yesterday where it wound up with another negative number ? Less than 7 days to make what it barely could make in the previous 32, and that accounts for the opening surge. On top of that, no more 10k slots as well.

    Not the same thing though because your still getting something for your money even if you never play it. Here there is no guarantee you get anything, no matter what Brad says. You are literally giving him money based his 'word'

    I take it that money is being donated simply on the 'hope' that it'll be something they want. I haven't quite figured out if it's simply because brad is behind though. Can some no name put up a better ks than this, saying it will be based off EQ and the same gamble for 'hope' will be there?

    It's been said before, he was playing with house money when he was making Vanguard.

    They basically put themselves in a no win situation by even introducing it. Now, if they make the exp penalty too light, well everyone will use it then and corpse runs become non-existent. On the other hand, make it too heavy handed and it gets to the point where no one uses it to which point...

    I don't think so, how long have you've been playing these types of games? Players will always take the path of least resistance. Give you an example, if this mechanic exist in EQ, do you think breaking into plane if fear would be the bitch that it was?

    Just think people have an issue with the fact that you are not forcing the corpse run anymore. Time is most valuable and most players are going to take the hit. It also reduces player dependency a bit .

    I think he has a bigger problem with you being able to summon your gear back for an 'xp hit'. Knowing how history has gone unless the xp hit is insane most players are going to opt for the hit instead if running back thus effectively really reducing corpse runs
