When was the last time you played the game? And I mean take a character to 15 or so not just 5 minutes in newbie zones. Seriously do you really believe you know what you"re talking about?Quineloe said:
I"m not sure if Vanguard is good for the MMO industry and the players yet. It"s a game with an enormous budget, a difficult and confused development and beta cycle, and released in a mediocre state of affairs. As big as the strides Sigil has made recently in improving the game, let"s be honest; Vanguard is definately subpar given it"s scope and budget, with it"s fair share of high and low points, lacking much of the polish and flair a AAA title should have. Although things can be learned from failures (especially from failures, some might say), at the end of the year we could easily be looking at WoW with 10+ million subs with 7-8 million TBC sales versus Vanguard, which nearly rivaled WoW in terms of dev time and budget, with under a million subs (perhaps well under). I"m not sure how encouraging that will be to future investors.Dis said:
i can understand 20+ year olds doing it on weekdays if they have a full time job and they just wanna relax after coming home from work. but on the weekends people should be going outGoliath said:
except us who are married and own a house and 2 car payments etc, who don"t have the cash to go out. MMOG"s are cheap entertainment. I couldn"t even go to mcdonalds every weekend for the money i spend on MMOG"s the price cannot be beat.vynde said:
I did that with my monk about 3 weeks ago before i uninstalled the game. The game got progressively worse for me the farther I got in the game.tad10 said:
Not everyone works 9-5 40+ hours a week. Sure most do but when you consider that these games already cater to people with time on their hands as it is its natural for people that work odd shifts or have a lot of free time (IE dont" have to work as much) to play them.vynde said:
oddly enough, I fell in love with eq because my time schedule was contrained. when I didnt have unlimited hours to play it left me wanting more every time i logged off.kedwyn said:
Ok we get it, you"d marry the fucking game if you could. As much as people hate those who rag on VG, every post of yours is like some 13 year old girl with a crush on the high school quarterback. We get it.tad10 said:
I don"t think the board got it wrong on Vanguard, though. Things get blown out of proportion around here. When WoW was launched, everyone was creaming their pants about how awesome it was, and look at where we are now: there"s a lot of issues still remaining with the game, mostly technical but there"s definitely issues. It was really good, but was it as awesome as it was proclaimed here? Probably not.Lyrical said:
Those still suckling on their mama"s tits don"t understand this and won"t understand it until their mamas cut the cord. IE: In some cases, never.Bongk said:
