I have prepared myself mentally for Fallout Online, made by the same people who made ESO, using the same engine, with different art.

I logged in, to post this for you! Education as it is, is a horrible way to make money. It's a time sink, a money sink, and there are much better opportunities available to those who didn't actually do that education thing. The only reason to do ANY higher education is if it is a hard...

I don't think this is the end of the world, but I like google? I think that the stuff they build is useful? I dunno why everyone else has such an abhorrent experience with them. That being said, if twitch starts to suck then a new twitch will raise to fill the gap. Thats how the internet works.

"Painkiller you'll certainly need one"... I could be confused.

Makes perfect sense to me, thanks for your view on this topic. So then as far as failure goes, would you say that there hasn't been much "failure"? On the flipside, what are your views on stagnation? Do you feel that the genre is facing a time of stagnation? If so why? Incase you haven't...

You can say what you want about my stupidity sometimes, but I find the above to actually explain some stuff for me. I see where your coming from, and it even makes sense in my mind. That being said, popularity for sure does not = quality... EX. Halo. However popularity could be a...

You can take an average... turning the subjective metric "fun" into a normal metric... IF 8 people find a game "fun" and 2 dont... you can safely say the game is "fun" for most. Which is why "popularity" is the easiest way to get a accurate measurement of fun. The reason WoW has so many more...

I think that the metric of "profit" shouldn't be used to measure the success of something meant to entertain, obviously from a investor standpoint, almost every mmo that turns a profit is a success. But a game is about fun. We should remember that we need to measure a game on that metric alone...

That is my point in that regards. As for the other information provided, particularly the arguments that EQ was WAY Different than UO and that WoW was way different from EQ... OBVIOUSLY EQ was way different, I even said that, which is why it forced UO into the background. On a side note, UO...

So the other day while I was trolling the Star Wars: The Old Republic forums? Which I love to do, might I add? There was a topic titled ?Why do all mmo?s fail these days?? that I desperately wanted to read for the many laughs I was sure I would get from it. When I went to reply and add my own...

"Professional Forum Troll 13" by "How To be a Jerk"... I Assume.... That... However I just earned myself a warning no doubt. :(

Freedom of Speech does not protective Obscene things. The Miller test was developed in the 1973 case Miller v. California.[2] It has three parts: Whether "the average person, applying contemporary community standards", would find that the work, taken as a whole, appeals to the prurient...

Im surprised no one jumped on this... but, I beg to differ... More and more AAA games are being released lackluster and horribly buggy, cause more AAA publishers ( usually not developers ) have realized that you'll pay for it regardless of quality.

I could be alone in this... But I totally want a mod (someone was discussing mods) that gives me exclamation marks above potential quests... So that I dont pass some of those kick ass side quests.

How did we regress, from discussing the morality of posting a review without disclosing your MAJOR affiliation to the company that produced it, to blaming PC Elitests for not liking the game again. I was so hoping Escapist was a place where I could read and particpate in intelligent gamer...
