I want to say I am super keen to get into the foundry. But I must temper my enthusiasm due to a poor track record by the Developer.

And does all this foundry stuff helps, when all those level hungry players reach endlevel? It is just letting the community make the content for what they even have to pay. It's not innovative, it's greedy and totally uninspired. And it is soo Cryptic too

If you think of some of the best selling games of all time, or most liked, ALOT of them have content generators and a huge mod community. Warcraft 3, Skyrim, Battlefield 3, etc. Why do I have to have some dev I've never met tell me which quest to do. I wanna make my own! Let me get out my wallet...you can have everything in it :)
Edit: except my driver's license...I kinda need that, but if you want it you can have it too, Cryptic :(

Foundry sounds amazing, but how can a game be best in show based on a single innovation? How is the rest of the game? All of the custom content tools in the world won't matter if the game design/mechanics aren't solid.

It is PW people. I guarentee you, it will cost dearly to use the foundry. They will find a way to part you from your money and it will not be a slight parting. Sure great feature, horrible company. Those don't mix. Getting excited about this game is a path to major disappointment. This site should know that, shame on them for promoting this game when they know it will end up being a rip off. |

Paying a sub fee for the "privilege" of doing most of the devs work for them. Cryptic, you ARE the Scam King. lol EA CEO John Riccitiello's on future microtransactions: "When you are six hours into playing Battlefield and you run out of ammo in your clip, and we ask you for a dollar to reload, you're really not very price sensitive at that point in time...We're not gouging, but we're charging." |

It do sounds good. I am glad Atari sold Cryptic, this game was set up for a huge failure until PWE bought it. PWEs weak point have always been the story and here we can do that part ourselves. Cryptics weak points have been coding and money making them throw out fast cheap games with bad code. PWEs games are well coded so lets just hope Cryptic got help with that part. |

http://www.desktopreview.com/default.asp?newsID=1876 "Still, Neverwinter was once a very popular franchise, and many gamers remember that. As such, the new Neverwinter won't be like a traditional free-to-play MMORPG. According to Perfect World, it won't be quite like traditional MMORPGs at all. Jack Emmert, Cryptic Studios' COO, once told MaximumPC, "It's not an MMO in the sense that there aren't zones with hundreds-and-hundreds of people. You are not fighting for spawns. There's a very strong storyline throughout the game. So it's more of a story-based game closer to things like Dragon Age or Oblivion, which we really try to follow.""
There you have it. it's not an mmo. It's just a rehash of the old Neverwinter Nights game with a cash shop thrown in. At least the original Neverwinter Nights you paid for the box and that was it. It's just more of this current developer trend of "How can we monetize singleplayer games?" . EA CEO John Riccitiello's on future microtransactions: "When you are six hours into playing Battlefield and you run out of ammo in your clip, and we ask you for a dollar to reload, you're really not very price sensitive at that point in time...We're not gouging, but we're charging." |

OK, Cryptic is a studio I had written off after STO. After reading this I am now interested in this project and will continue to follow it further.

It's Cryptic and I don't believe that since the sale to PWI that enough of a corporate cultural change has occurred to make this game worth while. It's still for all intensive purposes it's the same people that brought us CO and STO. The infamous Cryptic hype machine is starting it's pre-sales roll, aided by the media. I like the foundry, the c-store structure will be the make or break on this game.

Definitely looks interesting, cryptic has proven to be good at customization thingies. As for that last paragraph: I still think it will be exploited in some ways by players, there really is no way it wouldn't be when they find so many things to exploit in games that have been designed bottom-up by devs. Still, it will be very interesting to see what people come up with! |

Originally posted by Suzie_Ford The most expensive component of MMO development is asset creation such as all the artwork that goes into everything. But you are definately on the right path with content creation. Wizards of the Coasts figured this out a long time ago with original PnP D&D. Make the manuals, world, rules, dice, and sell little figurines and the players will do the rest. |
