Agree with OP, the nitpicking regarding combat are totally misplaced. Also if anyone says questing in TSW is boring has obviously never played other MMOs. TSW quests are real adventures with story chains and cool puzzles, best mission design ever seen in any MMO, period

This, combined with your avatar, made my day. Cheers!

Rideable Armoured Spiders.

For when Rideable Normal Spiders just won't do.

THAT makes people spending it suckers. Not the fact that they are willing to spend it in the first place.

Yeah, it's that simple.

1) How do you know it is not worth it for them?

2) Isn't it a good thing? They are subsidizing your F2P play.

 

It's all a matter of perception and opinion. What one might deem "not worth it", someone else might feel completely different about it.

And how someone else is paying for the game and thus allowing me to stay free at it has nothing to do with the matter. In fact, it's a downright stupid argument, suggesting it would be okay for a developer to scam people.

That's all I'm saying.

D3 dead? Dethroned?

Huh?

Damnit, Ford! I'm reading 5 bucks and I'm thinking: GOGOGOGOGOGO!

Then I get to the site and see it's 59.99! "Nuuuuuuuuuu!".

Just......damnit, Ford.

My name is BizkitNL and I play Diablo 3.

*Room applauds*

OP:

That was an excellent read that brought me 30 minutes closer to going home. Had a good laugh as well about the whole thing :).

PoE? /yawn.

NEXT!

Less is More.

I'm not saying 8 is worse than 7, but it has a buttload of extra stuff I'lle never lay my hands on, so I'd rather pass on that and go for 7.

It's the thought that counts!

Cherish the fact that you finally won something here!

single player games arnt passing MMOs.

MMOs are going backwards, every new mmo that comes out has more resitrction, more linear paths, more story told to you instead of you makeing your own story as you go. they are more dumbed down than ever, and honestly they are just single player games with a bunch of people either in your way or running around doing their own ( story quest ) with no need to interact with them.

when i first started in MMOs back in 2000, i thought damn i cant wait to see how much they progress in 10 years its going to be awsome.... boy was i wrong, it has gone backwards at a alarming rate.

I agree that MMORPGs have gone backwards since WoW and now half the games being developed aren't even finished when they are released anymore that I don't understand.

WoW wasn't finished - JEEZ - I guess we are looking through rose-colored glasses. WoW had the EXACT same type of release that D3 did - people coudln't log in, the game had huge bugs, etc.

 

Please - let's not have a revisionist history - WoW's released was one of the most flawed ever.

And you're doing the exact opposite. Blizzard, at that time, underestimated it's fanbase, which resulted in queues and latency problems.

Content-wise, however.....yeah.

I think Windows 8 will be a better pick once you get acclamated to it and make adjustments to some of the worse features of it like how it handles programs started from the Modern UI, and the traditional desktop.

Windows 8 will be faster then Windows 7 and cheaper.  So if you care about performance then Windows 8 is what you want.

Bold statements. Care to back those up with facts?
