I would rather see a company delay a release than to rush to meet a deadline. |

World of Darkness will have permadeath per CCP

I have no interest in a game which I spend time building character only to lose everything I had achieved with a Perma Death. My time is way too valuable to be restarting over and over. This is not an idea of fun for me. |

General: Jennings: Why I'll Play Star Trek Online
News & Features Discussion « General Discussion 1/22/10 6:46:57 PM
I hit level 16 in 3 days. I did not find enjoyment levels rise after getting tier two equipment. The mission balancing is consistent with your level, if you don't start grabbing tier two missions before you get there. Huge imbalance in equipment between the Klingons and Federation. Klingons have no PvE that they can get drops on other than a few drops within an instanced ship kill room. Over all I would say my enjoyment level dropped as I found it's the same mini games over and over. The lack of hitting a planet side exploring tracts of expanse adds to this down turn. No hint of sandbox, only confinement to narrow corridors and rooms of 1 to 10 other players. No crafting system, they have a collection system. The scraps you get for the collections leaves many gaps to fill a requirement as you pass the tier level of what it produces. The rewards do not seem to be worth the effort. I have 50+ million SP in Eve and had canceled my subscription from time to time to revitalize. I did not expect STO to match the sandbox of Eve, I at least want some. I will not be spending my time in STO after it goes gold. I am thankful for my 99 cent purchase at Target for a pre-order to get beta access. They offer a free trial years down the road, then I might try it again being a HUGE fan of the license. |

Another one of "those fan" here. Yet I will not be buying this game. I say game because to me a MMO does not have the confining corridors of play that makes up this game. This makes it more a pc game that happens have some moments of interaction of a small group. Give me large tracts of sandbox to explore and come into contact with greater numbers. My prefered character choice has no PvE content. Character design is a cookie cutter, producing a limited number of variation. Starfleet is not the only fleet within The United Federation of Planets. Where is the ability to play as a Andorian or Orion fleet member? Crypyic has greatly missed the mark. The numbers will tell as game purchases will be a fraction of the open beta keys. Rushing a poor product to market sours a companies reputation with the gaming community. |
