• • WAR copied WoW?

  • War copied WOW.

    WOW copied many other games, not a single original thing in it, and it is still doing well financially. Why can't WAR do the same?

    WAR (Warhammer Online)
• • Rational analysis of why WoW is so successful

  • Agreed on some parts. WOW did get many non-gamers into gaming world by providing easy, almost brain-free access to gaming. Excellent business move by Blizzard, getting the money by recycling their most famous brand into an mmo.

    But I must add that none of my hard-core gamer friends plays WOW right now. Some did, but none stayed longer then 6 months, and all of them got out, bored to tears. Lets leave WOW to houswifes and kids making an entry into virtual universes then and lets play some real games.

• • Ryzom: Step Three

  • 

    I tried this game about 12-16 months ago and I thought it's good. Much better then WOW or LOTRO, more diverse, a bit dated in graphics but gameplay was just fine. I didn't subscribe becouse I knew it was dying, it was all over forums and I just coudn't put my money and time into something as secure as a slot machine.

    This is great news, I don't own an account but if I ever get tired of what I'm playing now I will move to playing Ryzom until some new mindblowing game comes out.

• • MMOs can't survive with this level of complaining!

  • You are 100% right. People complain too much about stuff they are paying for. They should just shut up and dish out cash to anything game producers have to offer.

    Same as with cars, when you get in a new car you don't expect all breaks to be operational and you certanly don't expect to have all windows in place. So what if you don't have lights, just don't drive during night hours. And who said that you need all 4 tires?!?

    I guess this is the moment where you need to realise that YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO BITCH as long as you are paying. I know AOC and WOW will never get my money becouse I have the right to keep it since I think both products suck. And this is only relevant thing here. If those companies want my money they need to come up with something I want to buy. WOW has it's audience and Blizzard is happy making money even though their game is boring to me and my friends. Fair enough, business is business. But Funcom is loosing people rapidly and can not even hold a fraction of people they sold their game to initially. All complaints against AOC are well founded and if they don't adress them their game deserves to be burried with rest of failed mmos.

    I'm looking forward to trashing WARHAMMER if they do a bad job. I didn't find my money on the street and therefore I will not hand it out for free to first software company who reaches out it's hand towards it. If they wan't it they should work hard for it and not just copy overused concepts over and over again. WARHAMMER is no exception. Do well and live or do bad and die (business wise).

• • Is Warhammer instanced zones like Age of conan or a mass word like WoW?

  • As open as wow?!? LOL!!!

     

    Eve is mass world, WOW is instanced server split world... and AOC is even worse that that. I hope Warhamer  is not one little bit like wow or aoc so I will at least try it.
