Only thing I can think of right now that might be worthwhile is RIFT. Tons of PvE to do in it atm and has a world event starting soon.

Good article, can agree with it 100%. It's a good game when you start off but then you realize how mundane it is.

Rift is not for everyone, yes it has all the same elements from WoW, Warhammer, DAOC, EQ 1, EQ2, and VG. Yes you can call it a grind it grinds in pve and pvp ... but so does everyother MMO out there ...  what makes this one different, try to get to know the community listen to the players enjoy the bantor ... there are some bad chats but 90% of the conversations are fun and about how cool is this.

 

Now i am only level 35 but my guild has 20 level 50s in it and they are loving everything in it they are working on experts and guess what they are hard, they are also working on 10 man raiding ... i am very proud of the guildies ... But i can say that being a consumber of this format of game for 11 years .... this one is as much fun to play as eq 1 .. and i played that for 8 years ...

Good for you. The game is lackluster on inspiration and rather mundane, the PvP must be a Trion running joke - especially with "Players are the most dangerous game!", hardly. As an opinionated consumer myself I can't really agree with your statement "this one is as much fun to play as eq 1". Let's see, played RIFT for a total of 2-3 weeks, experienced everything, yeah - fun! And before someone wants to quickly type "you need to pace yourself", the game is so horribly easy that I would have to accept one quest - do the quest - turn it in - then go back to the hub for another quest just to "pace".

What happened to the Trion that stated they wanted to keep the game hard and enjoyable? I don't see it. If you enjoy dancing in your main city, more power to you but unfortunately it's not enough "content" to hold. Maybe months down the line but different games will be out by then.

It's 50/50 here. They are listening to a select few people in the community and think they are doing it "right". I've seen the downfall of this many times.

The ride to 50 wasn't bad, actually decent. But being at 50 for a while does suck as all you do is the same dungeons just in expert mode and the PvP is very lackluster. So won't be staying.

Horrid patch for PvP. Glad to see that Sabs will be doing more damage now, in b4 those QQ's.

Seeing how DA2 turned out to be poop, i'm worried how EA gonna influence Bioware style of doing RPG. You could argue, different game, different team, but it's still the same culprit...EA games.

If you like instances and space, you'll like this game.

Horrible to read, I live in the US and it's pretty bad here also but glad it looks like it got repealed because that is absurd.

Let's do this.

That's good, keeps the revenue flowing into Blade and Soul.

Hey look, a company that actually cares about their customers. Bravo.

I stopped playing recently, I am on the same boat as everyone else. The game isn't bad but it's not good either (can mean different things to different people). I want to say the game has potential on being great but getting sick of saying that so for now and until some stability is issued I'll refrain from playing.

Can I jump on the WOW was the 1st mmo ever made bandwagon also? Just a hint, when you post that (insert game name here) is a WOW clone or copied this or that from WOW you lose all credibility for knowing anything about mmo's. WOW has done the same thing that EVERY mmo has done in the past 10 years which is to take the same basic ideas from the mmo's before it and make it their own in some way. All the OP has done is make him or herself sound like a moron.

Well said TBH.

I had fun in CO, basically got almost everything done on one character but I know nothing has "really" changed so even though I would like to go back I know there is nothing there for me. Except Zombie PVP which was awesome :)

I actually got a refund on my purchase so thanks to MHS, just personal opinion I don't think the game is in the shape where many would like it to be (patches don't always make things better FYI). This one is going to be a sitter but hopefully Masthead can pull it off. Time will tell.

Wouldn't say this game is addictive, I can see where the fun-factor would be but hard to enjoy with the issues. Some people can look passed it all but for a paid product I expect a bit more for the money I'm giving out.

Point is ganking is part of the game, if you can't handle it then its good that PK's are making you quit now rather than later.

Not sure what the point of this thread is either but bumping quote.

This is one of those "tough luck" situations. You dropped the items, no one stole anything from you. Next time be more careful when dealing with that kind of money, usually people are but $hit happens.
