    Go here and give us your nominations!
    Who's been the biggest Asshat in the last year? Give us your worst ones!
No game has ever engaged me like Everquest did. WoW is way too cartoony for me. I think EQ was a brilliantly designed game and believe Brad can do it again. I'm totally down for it taking longer to make to ensure his vision is realized. Much better than some publisher forcing out an unfinished product.

Welcome back, Brad, but you forgot to capitalize Vision (tm).

Just, I can't...

His only vision is that of the top of gullible people's heads as they bob up and down on his half-flaccid micro-dick

Designing a game that will encourage more player interaction via chat is all good to me. Not sure why you guys are hating, but I was stoked to find out about Pantheon. I tried playing EQ again and EQ2 recently, but I just want something fresh. I don't really like a game where I'm just pointed where to go the whole time... couldn't get into GW2 for the same reason. Also, actual interesting gameplay... having to be tactical about how you kill things, Enchanter, Bard, those are things I don't really have an interest in playing a game without.

There's up to 2180 pages describing why we're "hating". But the core of the issue is that we've all been burned by this hack in the past.

Oh, alright... I can understand if you feel cheated if you funded EQ:Next. I don't really know anything about that, just that I think the crowd funding and not selling out to a publisher is going to make for a really great game. I've pledged for alpha access and look forward to helping find bugs with the game, so it is perfect at launch.

There's a difference between wanting a game like that and wanting Pantheon.

Also, EQ next has nothing to do with Pantheon or Brad...

Who's this clown that has a whole 3 posts all with the last few hours and all in the Pantheon thread?

Thanks for the clarification. Where did the burning come from, then?

Vanguard, probably. The early development of this game, too, I guess. You missed some sad moments, liking him stealing a bunch of money from his fellow devs.

I think people don't trust him as a leader and see him as a bit of a snake oil salesman.

Like what Brad caused to happen with Vanguard? He's got a 50% track record on squandering huge budgets on a game so badly some publisher had to force out an unfinished product.

Also, what would be worse then releasing an unfinished product early? I'd say starting to accept donations on a project when no work had even started on it yet. Oh yeah, Brad did that too with Pantheon's kickstarter.

But I guess I'm looking past the important things, like whether player interaction via chat is encouraged!

Don't let the salt get to you. We know damn well Pantheon is legit these American Inventors got bus stop signs. Dollar for dollar the best use of advertising dollars for a game that won't be released for a decade.

Were you a Microsoft shareholder or part of the dev team? I played beta and all it cost me was a few hours and an unreasonable portion of my hard drive.
