Erling if you do read this I want to say thank you from someone that was in beta till about a month ago. For you to sit there and answer those questions must have been really hard. Most would have just said no. So if you play this right and keep your word (Funcom) the best you can more players will come back and start new and your stock will climb. We cant change the past but God I hope we learn from it.

I would like to say.. try just try to have someone post every now and then on your forums (not EU side) but the US.  They just like to know some one is READING. To say it are .. anyone can say that.. but just have them post every now and then.

  The fact they're already pushing the expansion is coming hype so soon after launcher speak volumes as far as I'm concerned.  I can't believe they have the nerve  to get people to pay up to have this content and more filling out of the game by calling it an expansion. It's things that should have been in game at release.

  If not that at least give the customers what they paid for and add content on as free expansions. It worked for CCP to grow EVE. I think they're fooling themselves if they think  they'll have another big cash injection with good retail sales like the main game had , which  then resulted in an exodus. What's the bet the xbox version gets all the PC expansion content included as part of it's main release.

Starts strong, but quickly shows itself as derviative, soulless, and uninspired.  While pretty on the outside, it ultimately is as charming as the cardboard tube inside a roll of toilet paper.  I should probably mention the client crashes, even still after months since its release.  In terms of entertainment, I would rather gargle, then slowly swallow little bits of broken glass then play this game again.  Comparing it to other games, I would say it's a bit inferior to playing tic-tac-toe.  Solitary tic-tac-toe, that is.
