Yup, my point exactly.

Flashpoint, Mount&Blade, Arma, Witcher? Really? Flashpoint - never heard of it. Mount&Blade - quake2 graphics and an idea that keeps you excited for half an hour. Arma - engine so bad, it could barely produce 30fps on a high end machine. Witcher - it's for 13 year old boys who sublimate their inability to have real intercourse with a real woman by playing this game, hence its popularity. No rpg value in it whatsoever. And the book is just as bad.

Unbelievable lore rape. Never seen anything like it.

If it wasn't Czech, I would've backed it. Have zero trust in Eastern European game devs.

Yeah, LA2 never got big because people hated being ganked, so they all stopped playing and LA2 just died and never got those 8 something addons. God, this new generation of gamers... I guess LoL and Dota2 aren't popular either, cause you can get ganked in there.

This thread needs more manliness NOW YOU'RE A MAYOONNN

1) I would feel AMAZING thank you very much. 2) I'd think this is the best game in the universe. 3) I'd identify with the my character like I never did before. It'd be a new level of identification with the character (close to virtual reality), a revolution in video game industry. 4) I'd play this game for thousands of hours. 5) What is manlier than a character that is constantly popping a boner? That's a rhetorical question, because the answer is NOTHING. Something is wrong with you Bruce. You're asking questions that any infant knows answers to. Boner is the manliest thing on earth. Prehistorical people used to fight dinosaurs with their giant boners and that's how we rid the earth of these vile creatures. It's literally the.best.thing. You need to re-think your whole life my friend.

Oh, so at times it's not gonna be press X to win? Boo hoo.

No. You're trying to rationalize instinctual behavior, which is a frequent amateur mistake. Females' lives are built around their instinct to attract the strongest of males and get their sеmen. It may sound chauvinist, but I mean no offense. It's just that it's really all there's to it.

What those chicks are angry about is that they don't have big boobs and those characters do. End of story. It's like if men started whimpering about Thrall having bigger biceps than they've got and calling all orcs offensive.

Maybe I'm not explaining properly, I'll try to keep it simple. Are you saying that a representation of a male character in a game can't be demeaning to men? If you think it can be then you should respect the fact that many female gamers find these ridiculous breast sizes as objectifying to them and possibly offensive? Yeah, that's why most women want to make their boobs bigger through surgery, wear push up bras, decolletes, etc etc. BECAUSE they think big boobs are offensive. Hahhaahahaha.

WildStar is making it disproportionate by making it ridiculously small. Have you even seen real boobs, Bruce?

If you want to make chicks look less like "objects", for once instead of reducing their boobs try making me care for them. That is if you can, being a noname studio that you are. By reducing boobs, you're admitting you can't make me care. So the only thing you've achieved is convincing everyone you're talentless and feminist. I hope your company goes bankrupt after this product so you can't pull anything like this again. This just shows how sick the game industry is. 99% chicks either made their boobs bigger or are planning on it. But the game dev world only REDUCES their boobs. This is how out of touch you are with the real world, idiots from WildStar.

>World of Warcaft cannot be copied because it was a situational success. The games industry is finally figuring out that MMOs have more in common with TV shows than video games. In 2004 there were a ton of people looking for a fantasy game in the wake of the Lord of the Rings films and WoW's initial success is tied to those films. Cool story. >You can't make spells cost ISK to cast Another cool story. >Re: 2 - Unbalanced? Then everyone plays the i-win class. Everyone played DK when BC came out? Nope. And I wasn't even talking about that kind of unbalance. >Additionally, if Rogues could steal other people's hard earned gear then soon everyone would be playing Rogues because, Because you're not thinking ahead. Any hostile action would get you a PVP flag, which would allow the victim of that action and his teammates to attack you freely. A rogue can try to steal things, but if he fails, he dies, loses hard earned XP, loses his hard earned gear, everything. >If items were not soulbound then they'd need to wear out Yes. Wear out. And make the amount of blue quality items and higher - limited. >most people don't want to lose character progress/power. Most people who play poker don't want to lose money.

The reason they set their price to $0 is to get all that hype, then revert the price and make it look like it was an accident. Such a **** move.

Neverwinter Online is like a browser game. It just doesn't count.

I don't know a single FTP online game where you can buy anything other than decorative things for real money.

So instead of reading my link and trying to understand basic differences between two concepts, you go through my posts and make it about me? Wow. Talk about having a problem, dude. Life must be hard when your complexes of inferiority govern your whole "thinking" system.

So, what do we have? Some people say it's mediocre, some say it's good like fallout. Means it's mediocre.

It's the kind of name I'd expect to be used for a porn film. Two sex references in one name, both clear as day.

Instead of being a jerk on the forums, you could've googled it up, here's the first site that comes up and it has a perfectly clear explanation http://www.differencebetween.net/language/words-language/difference-between-noir-and-neo-noir/ Learn to be polite and stop thrashing out cause somebody doesn't happen to like your pitch. Take in criticism instead of being a jerk, jerk.

I stopped reading after that too. Happy to have had this convo. I don't know who that is, but it sounds like he's a man of class then. I'll go look for his posts now, maybe I'll learn some new smart and important stuff.

Nobody tried other formulas, so it's illogical to say that Blizz found "some good formula". If only ONE formula has been tried, then you can't base your argument on experience with formulas. Understand? For all I know, it's the worst formula possible. And you can't prove me wrong, because the only game that uses another formula is Eve. And while Blizz loses players all the time, Eve keeps getting more and more players. See the tendency? Obviously, Eve can't have that many players due to being unorthodox in the sense that you play a ship, so it can't be a WoW Killer, but the tendencies are clear. When World of Darkness comes out and shows you (yes, you, people with no imagination) how an AAA sandbox mmo where you play a character looks, your world views will be shattered to pieces. Or maybe you won't even understand what happened due to lack of analytical mind. You're clueless, aren't you? The progress is moving forward at the speed of light. Two months ago, there was no way to make an MMO on unity, but NOW there are two "engines" out there for just a hunder bucks. For another hundred, you buy a pack with tons of models. Then you concentrate on skills, content and game mechanics. It'd be an indie game for sure, but you can basically make an MMO with a small team of 5 people in under 2 years. It'd have everything WoW has and much more. Now, not only that, but remember how AoC said they spent a year creating their character creation thing with faces and all that? Now you just buy that mechanism for 50 bucks for Unity. When people start making really good indie MMOs in 5-6 years, big companies will have to notice them and hire them to make AAA analogues or steal ideas from them and make sandbox mmos like I described.
