Once they said FE was a WoW clone with Fallout 3 representation, I knew we were in for a ride. What this review says is: If your a World of Warcraft player, you may not like the game. Also this was a level 1 to level 7 review of Fallen Earth I noticed and stated that they only put in about 10 hours of gameplay in. They disabled their reviewer comments on their you tube site, a few players managed to get their comments in before they disabled it. Well anyways, looking at their you tube channel, all they had reviewed was Mount and Blade and had some other random videos. Talk about having huge credibility here on reviewing mmorpgs games. |

Well obviously when someone says it's a WOW clone has no clue,but is a Fallout look see,it is suppose to be lol. However i never put much playtime into the game either ,and i feel i am fully qualified to give a review ,probably more so than someone who plays 500 hours and knows nothing about game design.The actual fact about FE is you will know every mechanic by level 1,there is no intrigue to this game or secret formula for success,it is all laid out as soon as you enter the world.There is so little content outside "the box" that really you do not need to play many hours at all to judge this games quality or weather or not you should stick around. I might put it on the line right away,crafting is the bread and butter of this game,and you will not need any play time to figure it out or judge how good it is.For myself ,it is done VERY poorly,the "bare bones" i like to call it,so to take your best aspect of the game and do it so poorly,does not do the rest of the game justice. The reason for playing a game is........"to play the game",not have it play itself,i would think that is not only reasonable but should be obvious.If you want to lay out the good points that keep you interested in a game,that is great,others might want to hear of those points,maybe they might want to play that game.However ,when giving a review you have to look at ALL the game,NOT just the bias parts,you think are good enough to qualify a 9/10 review,witch is what i see a LOT from reviews. Here is how i judge any given aspect or mechanic in a game.If a game outright repeats or copies ideas that we have seen a million times,it gets a 5 or 6 if it is at least an idea that is warranted to copy.Then from there i decide if the idea was done better ,if it is done better it warrants scores in the 7/8/9 depending how much more effort and in depth the design is.If it takes the exact same copied idea and dumb it down even further to where it is so simplified a 3 year old could do it,the score MUST drop off,depending of course if the idea NEEDED to be watered down.In other words you need to use common sense,outside of the fact that something is done the way you like it ,therefore it gets a 9.5/10. The common sense part comes into play more so than you think,i mean if someone ,wanted to open a game ,install it and get instant max level,all the game gold they need and their player is the most o/p player in the game,that person probably would say,this is great,the game gets a 9/10.However common sense tells us no,that is a retarded design and should be rated a 0/10.So again this shows how playing for 500 hours or 10 hours ,common sense will weigh a MUCH larger factor than playtime. http://www.youtube.com/user/Napolianboo#p/u/15/rCYLLQCNc1w |

Actually, watch it again - this time check out their action bar. Never gets more than 2 buttons on it. My guess is they lied about ever reaching level 7, why not they made the rest of it up anyway right. Who needs to work for level 7 when you can use the same 3 clips over and over to support you love of WoW? Too bad Icarus can't sue them for 'lost subs' caused by their lies. Would be great to have them start their life in the media with a $100,000 fine to pay off. I really hate how people think just because they are on the net that they can't be held accountable for their actions. (DISCLAIMER - The use of the word YOU in the above post is not directed at any one person in particular, but towards those who fall into the category itself - there is no personal attack here, neither intentional nor implied.) |

That's because these asshats hide behind their anonimity and think they can just do whatever they like and get away with it. That's current day internet and it will only get worse and worse. The fact, that they have so much faith in their wonderful review that they locked the video from comments and being rated says enough really. Cheers |

You know what was the most funny thing. I just watched the whole video again. As it's just hilarious. They compaired several features of FE (like salvaging (wich should be scavenging)) and say that WoW has them too and does it better. While WoW doesn't even have those features. Plus FE was already in Development way before Fallout 3. But nevermind on that. It's just funny that these guys kept constantly compairing FE with WoW and bashing it as a WoW clone, while they clearly never even played WoW itself. |

Not just that, its the fact they are saying it is a Fallout clone as well. I guess it is just me, but this game has more of a Road Warrior/Mad Max. Fallout isnt the only post apoc setting out there |

To Mordrid, I agree, its more of a Mad Max Trilogy PA setting. I have played Fallout 3 as well and FE just gives off a different type of atmosphere to me. Anyways... Not to sidetrack this post intentionally, the new mmo coming out on the horizon called Earthrise reminds me of Tabula Rasa. I hear the game will be PvP centric, but it does look more futuristic, maybe because there are creatures that look like aliens from another world. |

I have been watching Earthrise and it does remind me of Tabula Rasa, which I like because I thought it had much potential |
