"Carbine Studios has partnered with MMORPG.com" means you got money for hyping the game, so in future i should avoind MMORPG.com cause everything you post it will be well controlled. I hope Wild Star will be a good game and cant wait for it but no way I will follow it on this "sell out web site", you guys are disgrace for gaming comunity.

Why am I thinking Star Wars meets Avatar? Anyway, sounds interesting enough. I just hope not everyone is the hero whilst playing the game, got kinda tired of that...

Originally posted by koljane Actually, you're just plain wrong. NCsoft asked us if we'd like to run it with an hour or two lead ahead of the official site and we said yes. No money changed hands, they just assumed we'd get it in front of more eyes than the official site (which is true right now). And as its an exclusive that no one else has on an upcoming game, I'm not going to turn it down either. Partner =/= money. Partner = help with something (in this case, getting the word out on a cool lore story we thought you'd enjoy)

Originally posted by Freezzo I don't think that'll be the case too much here. I get the feeling that the story is presented in the overworld and the "heroes" are the people as a group. At least I hope so. |

No need to defend yourself Bill, just a troll. Nothing wrong with the website making money. : p

Nice lore there. Thanks for posting it Bill. I will determine my own hype level, for all games, and this game is certainly on my radar. I hope to hear more. |

Originally posted by BillMurphy If we were in a perfect world I might say yes and agree with you. But we don't. And if NCSoft wanted to get this infront of as many people as possible they would have given it to say IGN or maybe even Massivley. And considering NCSofts track record I wouldn't put it past them to throw the bribes out there for future positive reviews/advertising and forum monitoring.
Not saying that's the case, but I wouldn't be surprised either way. "In the immediate future, we have this one, and then we’ve got another one that is actually going to be – so we’re going to have, what we want to do, is in January, what we’re targeting to do, this may or may not happen, so you can’t hold me to it. But what we’re targeting to do, is have a fun anniversary to the Ilum shenanigans that happened. An alien race might invade, and they might crash into Ilum and there might be some new activities that happen on the planet." ~Gabe Amatangelo |

Sounds cool. Though I'm not really a story/lore kinda guy. Eager to see how the gameplay feels in WildStar. I really dig the art style.

Originally posted by Vunak23 Generally, what we've come to see with sites like ours that are dedicated to a certain type of game, is that pieces of information which are best suited to the hardcore players of a genre, are disseminated through sites like ours. Meanwhile big overarching previews are done at places like IGN and Gamespot. |

Damned if you do and damned if you don't. Good read though. I am getting the feeling that there are some really jaded people in here that can't take any information with a grain of salt.

Originally posted by FlawSGI Well after some of the things the staff have pulled here and flat out stated in the past everyone should be jaded. Granted not every review they post is fabricated BS, but every one of them should be taken with that grain of salt. On a positive... err correction.. on a side note., ALL media outlets are biased and corrupt, doesn't matter the content, none of them have journalistic integrity any more. |
