    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Bought this game with that 20 percent off coupon and $4 credit I had at GMG. I like the music and the graphics aren't bad but holy shit is this game's starter experience the epitome of every MMO quest hub grind in the past 8 years. I'm only level 10 and I've done nothing but noob crap so...

    Neo's Land

    They need to work on a way better pitch and give Kickstarter a second try. If the game is getting made regardless, I'd half the initial goal at least because second round Kickstarters have it hard enough and this game isn't even going to come close. It would have the benefit of a new name, I...

    That's what I gather. His tweets outright said he had nothing to do with EQN, I just think people assumed he was working on it in the background when it doesn't appear to be the case in any regard.

    Weird Earth thing aside, I still can't help but like (visually) what very little was seen of Amalur. I like the single player game quite a bit and the world of Copernicus looked huge and had a nice art style. Admittedly, the tiny bit of gameplay that was seen looked like the same old shit so it...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Tried that, don't think it's working anymore. I'll still probably just scoop it up this weekend, my reservations mostly come from not wanting to waste any money on another MMO I might not enjoy. After watching some videos and reading up on it, I actually think there's a chance I might like FFXIV...

    I wish there was a trial for this shit. I want to give this game a go because with the exception of a few people, it sounds like some of you actually like the game. Green Man Gaming needs to drop its price to the floor ASAP. And yeah, it's already pretty cheap but next gen cometh so I'm pinching...

    No, it's really not. Unless you're joking (in which case, my bad). The argument is: do guns typically found in fantasy games (like the flintlock shit) fit in Norrath? Nobody is actively thinking they're about to put in a Call of Duty arsenal. It's not so outlandish because they've become common...

    The issue is that they took the extreme example of laser scopes and assault rifles and said "NO GUYS WE'D NEVER DO THAT" when nobody but the dumbest people ever suggested that'd be the case. This series of polls basically gives options designed to fall in the middle. One developer posts in...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    I liked Rift for a little bit but the tiny world, linear progression and lack of any diversity save starting on the opposing faction ruined it for me. I got one guy to cap and quit. I'll log in every so often and log back out when I'm told all my skill points have been reset.

    Not really. Maybe it's not what you were looking for, but maybe it's still going to be good. Or not. Who knows, but it's not exactly a baffling concept.

    If your grand relaunch of a flop product shits the bed so bad you have to stop selling copies, I'd say it directly relates to the state of the game and turning it around. It sounds like a lot of things got better, but there were severe issues that made the absurd task of relaunching an MMO even...

    The company is in trouble and has nothing (that we know of) in development to salvage them. Rift is probably their only money maker and it's far beyond its peak. This could be the THQ and Jason Rubin situation all over again. Adding to the headache, Trion is an MMO company and those things don't...

    What's your point? The MMO scene has been a sea of shit for a long time, but I'll always have an interest in the genre for better or worse. If something comes along and captures my interest, I'll get excited. If the game comes out and is bad, I won't play it. Unlike a lot of people who are...

    That's certainly the optimistic view, but the MMO market is a sea of shit so when you hear about something that you think might actually be worthwhile, it's hard not to get a little excited. It's got so long to go and who knows when it'll release, but I'll be keeping a close watch.

    Vanguard music is lovely. It's epic when it needs to be and sinks into the background in nice loops and is completely unobtrusive out in the open world.

    I'm not sure whether the sarcasm alert should be sounding off on me or the people who think the dream team comment wasn't a joke. Or maybe they do and have ascended the joke to a second tier.

    I'm not as negative as some people in here but the Round Table videos aren't doing the game any favors. Most of the polls are pretty useless but to put up a poll that's at least a little interesting and then make a video explaining why it is being openly ignored it is kind of shit. A lot...

    It all depends on the pitch. If it's something with a lot of thought and effort like the Mighty No. 9 pitch, I can see throwing $50 to $100. If it's something like the new Mutant League Football (Mutant Football League on Kickstarter) that's a shoddy, not even half-assed attempt at getting...

    Large enough to get lost in, but not so large that there are vast lands of complete nothingness. Vanguard was a very incomplete product which highlighted the issue even more.
