    I might add to the poster who didn't like the stamina system.I would sort of agree as i didn't like it either ,however and there is always two sides to the story.They said it was to sort of force players to get into groups and party to help create a better community instead of a pile of soloers in a game.You can't argue with there reasoning it is a fair decision to say the least.

     

    For me, that was the problem -- it forces group play, but it hardly created a better community.  Instead of people getting together to help each other, there were just people wanting groups just to do whatever they needed without much regard for what the group needed.  At least that was my experience.  It was a good concept but a poor implementation.  Group play should be encouraged and rewarded rather than forced upon players with solo-play being punished.

    And it also asks you to be a more social player.

     

    Actually, it doesn't ask, it tells you to be more social, but it doesn't really care how, so a lot of the interaction comes to you in the form of "Hey, come do some things with me even though it won't really benefit you, but I don't really care because it'll get my stam back up."

    It does nothing to encourage anything more than interaction for the moment's convenience.

    For the love of god not this guy again. Haven't we heard enough lies dribble from him. We don't know when he is even speaking the truth anymore or spinning Funcom lies.

     

    Exactly what I was thinking -- EE has no credibility at all as far as I'm concerned.  The only reason I watch these videos now is for the sheer entertainment value of seeing him tap dance around the questions.  As the saying goes, "Screw me once, shame on you.  Screw me twice, shame on me."  I'm leaving things at the "Shame on you" stage.
