People want p2p and a mature community but the thought that the game will die in few months doesnt come to their mind.

Low population ruins the game, many aspects of the game fail because of this.

High populations of cheapskate nubs ruins games as well.

Going P2P in 2013 is a huge risk, either you win it all (WoW) or you lose it all (almost everyone else).

That's why I'm for it. It's the analogy of a breakfast of bacon and eggs: The chicken is involved, the pig is committed.

B2P is the chicken. Sub is the pig.

MMmmm bacon.

Yeah. And PS: F2P is that nasty shrivelled up piece of gristle rotting under the table where your kid try to sneak it to the dog and the dog wouldn't even eat it.

Grim Fandango FTW.

Where are all these rabid sandbox supporters? I know a few besides me and one has even stopped posting about sandbox games entirely. So this is just made up nonsense. There are far more people who are fanatical supporters of GW 2 and other triple A ThemeParks than there are sandbox supporters.

 I'd like to know where they are as well. I think many moons ago I got halfway excited about Salem, but that wore off pretty quick.

Only on MMORPG.com will you find hypothetical failure threads about unnamed unreleased games.

Indeed. Let me rescue this thread with a gratuitous picture of a slutty wood fairy:

If you mean "third generation graphics" as in the third (and current) generation of consoles then yes, I can agree.

 

I'm pretty sure he means third generation for MMO's.  You simply can't make cutting edge, Cryses 2, graphis and expect to have hundreds of people running around in the same area.

I'm sure he knew that too and was making a joke in the face of smug hyping.

No way. The dead horse has not been sufficiently flogged.

I'm sorry I'm not that irrational

 

Hating something because a certain group of people likes it, is just that. Irrational not to mention stupid

this will also be my answer

+1

 

It is not irrational if an important aspect of that "something" is the community, because then the community has to be judged.

Indeed. I call this don't-call-that-chat-box-fart-smell-a-refreshing-summer-breeze rule.

It is something marketers / PR guys have known / used for years.

Bookmarked. Thanks.

Might as well get handy labels for all of the troll varieties that article missed entirely:

Isn't a Flame Warrior a genus, and a troll a species? :D
