    And what can spellweaving be used for? He seems locked in place.

    
    Yeah, and he probably hates the the negative cynical way that you post.

    This obviously looks cool by anyone's standards, only the trolls and shills here could possibly say other wise.

    Really... whats it going to take for some of you guys to climb the f**k down off the hate bandwagon and give some objective views on what you are seeing.

    Whats funny is people actually thought this was going to be a good game. Lots of angry people will be posting on here soon enough.

     

    Yes I played the game and honestly did not like it whatsoever, its just bland and boring. It did'nt grab me, I will stay with GW, WOW and DDO (which happens to have a kick ass combat system and nice graphics that my PC can handle).

    People get angry these days if they don't like a game?

    Wow..

    Seeing as you have listed 3 games I personally think are rubbish, I won't take your opinion too much too heart if you don't mind?

    I am not even angry about not liking them, I just don't pay to play them.

    I dunno, if so many people are complaining about EA, then maybe Funcom didn't do a good enough job of informing people?

    I cancelled my pre-order awhile ago (not because the game was bad, but it just wasn't for me), but a couple of friends of mind kept theirs, and I have to say it is pretty misleading at first glance.  Yes it's printed, and yes you should read EVERYTHING, but in this day and age that type of stuff could be considered dirty and misleading.  Is it? Technically no, but chances are if someone has a bad taste in their mouth, they're not going to buy your product.

    Now, I have a lot of time for Funcom, they are a good company, and I do understand that there has to be a line drawn somewhere.  But with the launch of a new game, it can't help to have all these pissed off customers before the game even starts.

    
    'All' their customers are not 'pissed off', only the ones who didnt get in after not reading the material they were presented with are.

     

    In the blame culture of the modern western world it's a depressingly common mindset. Burn your mouth on a hot apple pie? Cry and blame McDonalds... Fall of an obviously unsafe ladder at work that you used because you couldnt be arsed to get a decent one and noone told you not to? Cry and blame your boss... Didnt read the presented material properly and didnt know you wasnt guarenteed to get in EA early by pre-ordering? Cry and blame Funcom...

    It's a pathetic way to live imo.

    Not talking about you Binny, but dam... I have never seen such a whiney, over reacting, anal retentive, tantrum throwing 'community' as those that play MMORPGs...

    The curse of this hobby, and the internet in general I guess,  is that the disgruntled vocal minorities rule every public forum, while anyone actually being the least bit positive is shireked at and called stupid names like 'fanboi' and whatever as soon as they open their mouth.

     

    unsafe ladders in the workplace are a violation of OSHA standards and therefore the company supplying the ladder would be liable, Serving Hot apple pie at 200 degress F would also be against the law. Many retailers didnt disclose the "restrictions" on their materials. This is false adversiting.

     

     

    Defenders of this business practice should be drawn and quartered.

     

    You missed my point, but thats ok.

    I guess someone has to support the modern mentality for it to even exist.

     

    Yes, if supporting peoples rights means im part of this "Modern Mentality" then im guilty because if we won't protect ourselves from corporations that take our money and advantage of us sometime even putting us in harms way then we might as well just all lay down so the trucks can roll over us.

    Let m try to explain to you...

    When I say, for instance...

    "Fall off an obviously unsafe ladder at work that you used because you couldnt be arsed to get a decent one and noone told you not to? Cry and blame your boss..."

    ...I am obviously saying that when we suffer due to our own lack of effort to protect ourselves we have no right to blame anyone else but ourselves.

    I am not suggesting we don't support people's rights, but being blameless, even when you are to blame, isnt a 'right'. Not to me anyhow.

    Noone took 'advantage' of anyone here. Funcom put the information out there. The whiners complaining about this just couldnt be bothered to look at it. End of story.

    Honestly... it's poltical correctness to the point of crippling our responsibilities to us and those around us as adults. Seeing as the rating on this game in a 'Mature', I would expect it's users to be able to accountable for their own actions.

    I don't expect to change anyone's mindset in a forum, so I won't post on this point past this one. It's an alien way of thinking to me though I must say.

    It's a pathetic way to live imo. It just reduces us to 5 year olds who are not capable of being held accountable for our own actions. Then we complain when the powers that be treat us like children.
