    Green Monster Games - Curt Schilling

    Personally, I don"t believe EQ"s system was anything but "the way it happened to work out". There really wasn"t any kind of psychological testing going on to determine what the human psyche prefers, and how to get them to punish themselves. This post is classic nostalgia/rose colored glasses.

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    Anyone who picked up the game just to see what the fuss is about is guaranteed not to be playing it in 2 weeks. Fact. The game is fucking rat urin. I played the beta for over a year... I hardly "chose a side" . Every week I would try and feel refreshed about the game. I"d read the boards (now...

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    I"m sorry... I"m not a WoW fanboy, but you can"t be serious. It"s not even a discussion that Blizzarad has people who can make great GAMES. They do it time and again.... they know what their doing. Sigil has engineers writing stories, engineers doing 3D modeling, engineers doing lighting...

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    These are bugs that should not be in retail. Bugs are one thing, but THESE kind of bugs are beta at best. Come on... LoS bugs? Grouping bugs? There was some VG love the first few days, but as players spend more time dealing with this crap, I suspect the tide will turn quickly.

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    I just don"t see how people can be on such completely polar opposite sides of this... For MY opinion, I cannot see, in the slightest, what you consider fun in this game. Is it the lackluster combat? Is it the flat grey textures on everything? Is it the low FPS? Or maybe just the hitching...

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    I played beta for over a year, right up until the final 2 weeks (until I got banned for being too negative on their forums (the now non-existant forums). Hardly "early beta" but there was just as many performance problems, hitching, etc then as there was 5 months ago. So yeah, as a...

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    This is me. I was a vanboi because I had such high hopes... then, not only to see them dashed but in such a way that made the betas look literally like high school projects, it was embarassing. It still sucks to this day. Yes it improved alot to the very end of beta, but it is far and away...
