  • I can understand why people are upset. But surprised? You shouldn't be. I will admit I find it shocking and perhaps even insulting that they didn't even bother changing the mount to something other than a spider. Exclusive mounts are a preeminent status symbol, after all. A unique mesh is a small price for the company to…
  • Viewed on its own, I can't and won't argue with that statement. Increasingly, and to our detriment, these games are making us tourists in a theme park rather than adventurers and explorers in a living (albeit virtual) world.

  • The coin is a reward for the daily task of logging in. If you don't or can't log in on a given day, you don't get a coin. I didn't do the task, so I don't get the reward. That's fine. That makes perfect sense. But on top of that, the game also says that there's a penalty for not doing the daily task. The penalty is that it…
