    Try a drive-in theater..one where you had to hang this big clunky metal speaker housing over the side window (mono, not stereo) to listen to the audio. And of course the movie couldn't start until it was dark so start times were listed at "when it gets dark". Father would take us to the...

    He's said it in several places that durability/item degradation will not be implemented...something about they don't to see people's hard earned items vanishing, etc. Then again..who knows really.

    I'm in the same boat as you. Either the KS reaches the fund level and they get my money or nothing. I won't send them money directly until well after there is some definitive display of specifically mentioned game mechanics. I'd need to see class/subclass work for one thing.

    It's because the game gave you no reason nor need to communicate with anyone especially at that level. The newbie island was set up on rails, had no room for exploration or for getting lost. The minimap told you were to go for your 'quest' and the glowing ribbon took you back to the quest...

    And don't forget, Brad, that you'll have to take into account those abilities existing when you're designing content. How much content could raids skip because guilds camped Mages who had CoTH at safe spots near boss mobs? Wasn't Vex Thal changed to require certain NPCs taken out before you...

    Oh shit..GBS and Quillmane as 'great' examples? Sometimes I wonder if designers ever experience their own creations. Did the guy who came up with Pyzjin ever think to himself "I wonder just how bad it is what with all the complaints I see" and actually go and try to camp that fucking gnome?

    Agreed, but when you do release details, they should be complete. Release the race info with a little blurb is a 2 minute job and really does nothing. Release the race info with the blurb, some concept art and available classes and you've got a complete picture.

    You bring up a good point because it is through concept art that people start building their attachment to a given race. They can latch onto a concept then visualize how it might turn out. Without concept art we're left with having to think of our own ideas which we then become attached to and...

    They need to show more 'concreteness' and far less "we'd like to do this" or "we're thinking about that". Basically present 1 complete dungeon, populated end to end with NPCs, some static and others roaming and full lighting effects. Scrap the 'releasing races 1 day at a time' and present them...

    I truly fail to see why a $600 supporter would not include the same perks found in that new $250 tier plus additional perks. It makes no sense. The whole point, for me anyway, of putting up a higher donation amount is exactly to get the unique perk of that level plus much of what falls below...

    I liked the distribution of the wizard and druid spires in that they were not both in identical areas. Sometimes the Druid portal was closer to a given area of interest other times it was the Wizard.

    The quests in Rift are what killed that game for me. Being told to go back into the same area multiple times by the same quest giver just to pick up the next piece of some idiotic quest chain was annoying as hell. You could walk around and see objects that you just knew you'd have to return...
