Am I the only person who likes TBC? I love flying around all of the floating Islands and stuff, in fact it's about the only part of the game that I do like. I guess that's why I don't play anymore.  Oh well,  I'll just wait for Aion.

Hmm Aion is from NCsoft in Korea and guess what Koreans enjoy in the games, grind, grind and more grind.  Sorry if I find your comment a bit funny as if grind is so much more fun.
 

Wow is certainly not perfect, nor will this new expansion be either, but when you stack it up against other games, it just owns them.

So go enjoy the other games you like and have fun.  Attempting to riducule Blizzard or Wow is an effort in the ridiculous.  It just makes you look like a wanna be.   Wow is not for everyone, but it certainly satisfies most of the players in this market far better than anything else out there. 

Someday one of the development companies will wake up and provide a real challenge to Wow, until then it is in fact the 800 lbs gorilla.

Dude, he said he liked TBC.  There have been far more negative posts about WoW; Ugottawantit's was pretty upbeat in comparison to most.

Coupled with a bit of ignorance about the design direction of Aion, this reaction sounds even worse than a typical knee-jerk fanboi defense rant.

I think this game is cool, hope it's free to play

It's not free to play.

I say make a toggle power that turns all Knockback effects against your target into Knockdown.

That way, if you are a whiny melee character who cries everytime he has to chase a knockback, you can spent some points on this power and use it whenever you are teamed up with a knocker-backer.

So now you can't whine about it because it's no one's fault but your own if you don't take the KB-dampening power.

Frankly, I expected to see the damage control start a little sooner.

When you see the developers start begging you to "hang in there" or "give it another chance," you know it's time to move on.

For those who say you'd rather they delay the game than release without the cities and classes, here's what you do:

Stop whining.  Pretend they are taking your advice.  Don't buy the game when it is released.  If they have added the cities and classes by next summer, buy the game then.

(Actually, you'll probably be back in this same position by then either way, falling in love with games that don't exist yet and hating everything that is actually real.  But to each his own.)

LOLZ

The "Background" summary at the end shows you exactly how much the author really knows about his subject matter:  Nothing about anything that isn't EverQuest.

You really ought to put the background up front so we'll know not to take you seriously and won't waste our time reading your uninformed crap.

Odin's Beard, people.  It seems to be time for another vocabulary lesson!

"Capitol" with an O is used only when referring to the building (not the city) where a legislative body meets.  (And when you are talking about the one in Washington, D.C., it should be capitalized.) 

"Capital" with an A is for everything else: cities, letters, an idea -- everything else.

Unless the political systems in WAR are far more advanced than they've let on, the word "capitol" with an O is generally unwarranted.

This is not a general guide to MMOGs at all.  The advice on character creation alone is specific to a very specific few games.  There are quite a few MMOGs for which this guide is totally meaningless.

A first for Cryptic, and one of very few examples in the entire MMO genre, I would wager.

Of all the MMOs I've played, I'd believe this had been done -- maybe -- for WoW.

Most of the others were obviously NEVER played by the employees for "fun factor" prior to release.

I'd be happy if someone would just release a decent new single-player tactical RPG.  Making it an MMO does not make me want to play it more.  If the game is great enough to overcome the fact that it's been forced into a horribly inappropriate genre, I might try it, I guess.

But seriously, turn-based MMO?  Bleh.

Sigh.

FARE, not FAIR.
