Hurlshort Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 DDO is crap all around, and not just because its a MMORPG. Actually I thought the graphics were pretty solid, particularly the reflections. But I agree with the rest being crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slowtrain Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 I just googled up some reviews of Extraction Point, seems pretty meh, five more hours of the same weapons and enemies that I played with in the first game. meh. Notice how I can belittle your beliefs without calling you names. It's a useful skill to have particularly where you aren't allowed to call people names. It's a mistake to get too drawn in/worked up. I mean it's not life or death, it's just two guys posting their thoughts on a message board. If it were personal or face to face all the usual restraints would be in place, and we would never have reached this place in the first place. Try to remember that.

theslug Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 I hate wow with a passion. I mean blizzard is a good developer but I mean they seriously kicked me in the sac on this one. I mean how do have such an absurdly unbalanced game for upwards of 6 months. I mean paladins where so imba and druids were unbelievably gimped from the begining and even into like a year. Of course like now they are supposedly amazing. I vowed to never play another mmo ever again. There was a time when I questioned the ability for the schizoid to ever experience genuine happiness, at the very least for a prolonged segment of time. I am no closer to finding the answer, however, it has become apparent that contentment is certainly a realizable goal. I find these results to be adequate, if not pleasing. Unfortunately, connection is another subject entirely. When one has sufficiently examined the mind and their emotional constructs, connection can be easily imitated. More data must be gleaned and further collated before a sufficient judgment can be reached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sand Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 I haven't played a Blizzard game since Diablo. They all suck.

mkreku Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 I hate wow with a passion. I mean blizzard is a good developer but I mean they seriously kicked me in the sac on this one. I mean how do have such an absurdly unbalanced game for upwards of 6 months. I mean paladins where so imba and druids were unbelievably gimped from the begining and even into like a year. Of course like now they are supposedly amazing. I vowed to never play another mmo ever again. I played a paladin up to level 60 and a few months into the endgame. Trust me, I believe every class feels the same way you do about their particular class. Like my paladin for instance; I was a veritable killing machine at the last weeks of the closed beta. I had attack skills that I could activate whenever I wanted, I had heal spells I could use when needed and at the same time I had to balance my limited mana resource between the two. The game was fun and I even had a shot in the PvP (which I usually love in all games). One week (I think it was) before the beta ended, Blizzard suddenly decides to redo the entire paladin! Gone are all the attack skills, gone is everything you had any control over in combat, in with some untested **** that I forgot the name of. Bottom line is, with one week left of beta they decided to entirely redo the paladin class and what was sent out into the retail was a version of the class that had been tested wayyy too little. It turned out that the changes completely drained all the fun out of the paladin (and thus the game) for me. From having been in total control of my attack options, they turned me into a magic eightball (or something), that relied only on chance ant zero on tactics or player input. I could turn on skills and then.. wait. And wait. And wait. And if I got lucky, the skill would trigger. So instead of having to manage my limited mana between healing and attacking, I was now forced to sit and stare at the screen while an invisible dice decided if I attacked or not. Once every thirty seconds I got to press HEAL. Fun. Even though I had three months left on my account, I left World of Warcraft and I haven't returned since.

Musopticon? Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 I knew the cult things rang a bell. Was too embarassed to actually acknowledge that. ...oh, wait... kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food. Those who were too weak to survive were sent to Sweden. It has made me the man I am today. A man who craves furry hentai.

Maria Caliban Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 (edited) Blodhemn: " Hawt." I agree. Kirottu, I have difficulty understanding how anyone could consider this game challenging. Gameplay wise, it's about as hard as reading a choose your own adventure book. Though there is one choice early on that will cause you to die horribly. Hurlshot, I'd guess she was a D, which isn't that bad. The Longest Journey Edited April 6, 2007 by Maria Caliban "When is this out.

mkreku Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 I finally found where the game hides the screenshots! Stupid STALKER.. Anyhow, I only had three. Weird. One is a picture of a really tough gang of Duty soldiers gathered around a campfire. One is the view from a water tower, overlooking a ruined village full of horrible monsters. One is of this strange altar (I think?) I found in the woods. Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
