The part that surprises me is that they actually listened when players told them the core gameplay sucked and needed a major overhaul.

Hell, you can't con a company out of more money if your shitty game releases and no one is playing. This way, they are still getting paid but not really doing anything. Maybe Smed was better at something than Bradley, the long con. Sony is happy this burden is no longer theirs.

One thing ive learned that always holds true...if you have a history of getting millions im VC, you will continue to get VC. Even if you fail miserably.

Smed hasnt failed miserably, so its easy mode for him.

EQ still made monies and their zombie game made big monies. Nothing else to prove

We have no sympathy for patients who come into the ER with variceal bleeds due to chronic alcohol intake. All it means is that you get a rapid transfusion protocol in place and a ride to the ICU for a few days. Silly alcoholics, go to marijuana.

Not interested in a colonial MMO in the slightest, yet alone another PvP one.

This genre sucks so horrifically bad, I'll take any reveal I can get... Even if it's a 1% chance this guy can actually lead a team to make a good game.

I think a colonial game would be awesome but don't need another PVP game that will turn in to a lobby shooter after a month and a ghost town a month later.

Smedley.

Lol. If that doesn't sum it up for you, I am not sure what does.

(Nice enough guy, horrible in this industry)

Yeah he was a nice guy IRL @ SOE Live and chilled with our outfit(team) after we won tournaments on several occasions.

Do we get to enslave and kill brown people, wasn't that the point of colonialism.

I'd want to play a Native, but only there is perma-death and each new character has a 90% chance to contract a disease and die on contact with any other player that has contacted the white-folks faction

EDIT: Immersion

Smedley should make a game called '14 days.' You have 14 days. If after that time the game is not properly tuned, your character is deleted, and all your accounts cancelled.
