• • Is AOC dying yet?

  • Not even close.  The fact that they got an extra $5 million subscriber dollars just for a weekend fling of early access should tell you that even had it been awful and hellishly buggy (which it is neither) they'd be hanging around a long, long time anyway.

    I don't know but it sounds like this is bad news for you.  Indeed if you are waiting around for all your guild members in WoW to come back because its finally your turn to spend some DKPs then it doesn't look good.  They may in fact not admit it yet but they've locked up all those great BPs, rings, swords and robes on accounts they will no longer play and not show up now to get you yours.  The good news is, you are now Guild Leader.  Grats on that! ~~ 

    Seriously though, AoC is a terrific game.  The combat is a nice change and will only get better, the graphics are outstanding and the gameplay works really well.  Parts of the user interface is weak, imo, but they can fix that.  It'll will outsell everything except WoW and only because of the low PC specs of that game. 

    Welcome to 2008.  Next up, WAR.

  • Thanks for the great info!  I may give it a go later this summer depending on how AoC turns out.

  • I got a mammoth but let's face it.  After 3-4 months you'll be using your free mount about as much as you used your  'free" J-boots  that came with your  original  EQ2  account.   It will be fun for a while but not the end of the world if you didn't get you preference.

  • The pre-launch hype they've created is really quiet remarkable.   Again, I really admire the marketing job they are doing creating a false sense of scarcity.   Other publishers ought to sit up and take note.   If 1 million is more or less correct then that's a $5 million pre-launch bonus baby, too!  These guys are real capitalists.

  • It's been about a year since I last played EQ2.  I played some Tanks and Bard types up to max level, raided most of the endgame content thru KoS and the Faydark stuff and PvP'd a bunch.  Does RoK offer a lot that shouldn't be missed?  I had played off and on since EQ1 beta.  Are there good reasons to revisit Norrath once again?
