• • 300 hours max playtime in a month- should other mmos impose this too?

  • Yeah, like we need companies babysitting us. No thanks. If someone ruins their life because of a game, let them. As long as they (think) they're happy doing it. I don't think companies wouldn't do it because of money, because unless they charged by the hour it's still $15 a month, 300 hour limit or not.

• • Why do people have so much confidence in darkfall?

  • Darkfall has one thing going for it, the one thing that used to be its biggest bane: The long development time. Now, unless any of us work at Aventurine, we can't say what the hell they've actually been doing these last (what, 7?) years. Apparently they've been working on some kind of massive sandbox game with everything that 80% of the people on this site want. Go figure. We'll have to wait and see.

    Aventurine has 0% experience in PR, so all the hype is being generated by the players. That's fine, that's what happened with WAR too. And just like WAR, people will have extremely high expectations and will disappoint themselves. Won't be the game's fault entirely.

    I'm gonna assume you rolled order, never seen so many healers think they were dps as the whole party got rolled in a scenario.  Had a group the other day where and archmage did 7k dmg and 4k of healing. 

    In orvr I've had alot of luck with really good healers sprinting around the battlefield keeping everyone on their feet, but for some reason in scenarios the healers suddenly all think they're BW's.

    Don't blame the Archmage.

    1) Who can resist shooting freaking sun energy pew pew lazer beams from their eyes?

    2) Who can resist burning your enemy's spirit with aforementioned sun energy pew pew?

    3) Archmages have High Magic, which means they balance Force and Tranquility. If they're spamming heals, they can't insta-cast that mega heal that normally takes 3 seconds to cast and is very fragile, but heals for about three times the "normal" heals. It's all a balance, with more healing than damage, but not totally damage-less. If you tried to explain it to that particular AM and he said, "I wanna be a BW when I grow up!" then you could slap him upside the head. But I say I do about 15-25% more healing than damage on my AM.
    

    Runepriests are a different story. Stunties need to spam those heals and run.

  • Well that's what happens when your parents don't love you and you have no self control. Poor kid, pathetic. Contrary to what may be popular belief, it's not the game's fault. To blame Blizzard (as much as I would enjoy it) is ignorant at best, plain idiotic at worst. I can't read Swedish so maybe there's something I'm missing, I'm going by the title.

• • Shocking billing scandal in AAA MMO - and web sites are keeping it quiet under wraps!

  • Damn Mythic cut off this tumor that is GoA. It'll make the Europeans hate you, and then you'll only get the crappy dollar which is already practically worthless.

    By the way. Before you call Mythic Nazis who are hiding this to steal Euros, did you check the post by MAGNUS-GOA on WarhammerAlliance regarding this issue? Sure, he's incompetant, but it's not like he doesn't want to confront the community about it. Nice try.

    Remember, I'm not defending GoA, but still.
