    War with Syria

    So, if we do nothing because there is really no proof, they get to keep killing each other right? Like in Africa where we don't get involved? What's the issue here again?

    Is the MMO Market imploding?

    Busted. Same group that says sitting in that one camp is a good community builder...much better than having a large part of the community actually doing stuff together.

    Is the MMO Market imploding?

    @ OP, No more than other traditional gaming markets. There have been no truly 'new' type MMOs in ages and the most polished was released almost a decade ago. The market is saturated in similar style games. Compared to 2001, the market is still fairly stable and large even with the quasi-clones...

    I've always hated that saying. The easiest way to be pleasantly surprised? Quit following the game and then just keep your beta application updated. Either you find out that you like the game, or you are pleasantly surprised you won't have to waste your time with it later. Easy. Save that...

    Honestly, I think Wildstar is the bigger threat in the short term. It looks just like an improved WoW and what kind of mediocre patch is going to top that? EQL will grab a lot of people's attention as well. I think Wildstar would still eat that progression server up and EQL is a different kind...

    I don't know how they will teach players that were inundated with the telegraph system with WoW how to suddenly start dodging the red circles but maybe this time it will work. Game does look fun and they are definitely trying to get as much of the WoW crowd as possible. Smart devs since WoW...

    I don't hate Georgeson by any measure and find it hilarious that anyone believes that. I really do think he loves his product and usually is very exuberant. I also agree with a lot of the things he has mentioned he prefers. Maybe I just misread him based off that's guy's accent, etc. It just...

    Late return but lol, good stuff. Hitler fucked up a lot but you could be right. If Napoleon had fucked up even half as much as Hitler, he probably would have been a footnote.

    I can't see myself buying another WoW type game. It's possible but if I want a variant of a retread, FF14 at least is a beautiful game. The same old shit always tastes better when it looks pretty right?

    Time is the worst excuse for winning ever made and why exp pots aren't P2W. There is no skill, luck, forethought, or training needed to put more time in. You have made a conscious choice to use your 24 daily hours differently than someone else but it doesn't necessarily make you more skillful or...

    Every question answered usually just leads to more questions right? They want to make sure a consistent message is sent out and that it is controlled. Changing a huge part of the tried and true will lead to confusion and naysaying no matter what. It's beyond time that everything was shaken up...

    DMK, I don't it's irrelevant if F2P finds a solid model because many games are headed that way. GW2 proved that a B2P system works in regards to high quality content, somewhat timely updates, and a fun for a limited time game. If the F2P system finds such a game, it will prove that an ongoing...

    At least that's an honest question. The main parts of the game will be made the way they want it. This is just a fluff question. Developers usually don't ask those questions anyways. They promote their choice and the reasoning behind it. That's it.

    I hope they stick with a sub based model even if it's just a few months. Nothing will boost my arguments against sub-based games having any viable advantages over non-subbed than this game would. Talk about a complete money grab from the get go. C'mon Bethesda! Make my arguments for me!

    So are a bunch of games that launched as sub based and still have sub options. EQ2 is a dry desert as are all the sub based MMOs. A more relevant question is how many sub based games in the past decade were worth an extra 4 months of subs? Were these games much better than a brand new console...

    Exactly! One reason they are having problems explaining themselves is how early they are in this process with EQN. Another is just how different it will be than anything else out there. No static mobs?! Awesome! They are truly trying to make the best hook I've ever seen. Do you want to be part...

    I would love to see this as a harder to obtain class. It would be an awesome benefit for higher tiered tamers to sell their breeds in the market. Lithose is the primary tamer of the silver tailed Moon Gryphon while Tad specializes in the red horned velociraptor for the first 6 months. Later in...

    Raign, I agree that out of the games I mentioned, this is the best option. Wow will keep diehards, as will TESO and FF14. I honestly think EQN will kick this game's ass but it's far away and there's plenty of pie to divide. This game's best shot at Eve-like long term numbers is the familiar...

    I agree about this. People like that kind of content especially since they promised it. It's like they just canned the guy supposed to do this after release and haven't thought to add any of it since there no daily reminder. Making it so easy to level and then adding few new perks that can be...

    I don't understand the "it's fun the first time, fun for casters not tanks, Ping-Pong matches, etc". In EQ, if the tank did not get aggro, was there a ping pong effect? If the healer got aggro for a few seconds until the tank got it back, was this not a ping pong effect? GW2 has already shown...

    I agree it isn't truly unique but I don't think we need that for the next step forward. WoW took out things many people didn't like, polished the hell out of the framework, and added a few options other companies thought of into a better package. This can be the same step forward. EQN can...

    I think they are playing the data very well. You show some very progressive ideas behind closed doors at E3 and win some awards just based off 'vision'. This ups the hype early. Go into your own show and add to the hype with videos that show vision but give very little details because honestly...

    That's my problem with TESO. Slowly edging over to where they aren't really different than the next guy. We need unique at this point or at least a promise of unique. At least the EQ devs are used to criticism for the most part. Death threats should have serious consequences though. People do...

    True, but it really depends on how long you've been gone and how flexible that free weekend is. Blizzard are experts at giving just enough new stuff to get an extra 90 day sub. It's really not worth it but it seems like it the first few times. I also don't like the feeling that I have to spend a...

    I would probably agree if I saw anything that was new and innovative enough to be worth that monthly investment. Maybe EQN if they get everything they promise but how likely is that? This game is nowhere near the improvement in the genre for me to award them more than initial buying price. Also...

    I have to agree with this. So far, it's a variant of WoW at a time when B2P and F2P are both extremely popular. We'll see how FF14 does with a similar model but this will probably end up being a 6 month guilty pleasure until TESO or EQN hit late in '14. WoW wasn't an 800 lb gorilla early and...

    Amazingly good looking game that would have made me excited for months as a teenager. As an adult who's tried the same type games, will leave it to others to test it out for me. Koreans make beautiful games but for a different market.

    I've begun to get on board with the changes to the lore. If the Combine(all these races living together) comes back then they should all be allies early. That doesn't mean they start out with even one city in the beginning. It's a few camps. What will be interesting is if they base starting...

    One starting city fits their narrative and their choice to ensure everyone has a lot of other players around for a while. It will suck for people who like different starting experiences and for any alts made later in the game. One RC every 3 months means there will a long wait for anyone who...

    They put in Lanys T'Vyl as a leader of the Tier' Dal. A Thex prince leads this group. They are stuck somewhere with no way home. Lots of places they could go from this point. The guys at SOE want one starting area but that doesn't mean they can't add stuff later(as someone mentioned earlier).
