  • I think you're mistaking your subjective definitions with other folks definitions of them. There have been "plenty" of MMORPG companies that have "successfully" floated several MMORPG's at once on the market and done so by employing financially unscrupulous tactics, or are you saying that all those MMORPG's such as…
  • so your premise is "WoW devs made that call which could be described as lazy or a mistake" and thus it's ok for others to do the same. I'm going to put my hand in a fire now, I expect you'll be beside me in A&E also yes?
  • This with a heaping dose of This Reasons? Well first of all you're insinuating that everyone who disagree with the current pricing and models is in fact "whiney" which is naturally negative and or "entitled" which is the most horribly misused term right now in terms of the industry. that's classic appeal to ridicule,…
  • Appeal to authority fallacy You can try and argue that they're "experts" on the matter of pricing, although I wouldn't want to be you in trying to get that one to fly in all honesty, especially not until they start releasing completely transparent information on their research and findings into pricing. But hey, the core…
  • Define "hardcore" Also, what sort of adventure is getting your wallet out and buying a sword from another dude that got it playing the game? One has to remember as well, difficulty has to match reward, and a prime example of it going horribly awry was the end of cata implementation of looking for raid. The gear was…
  • I agree and disagree. Highly disagree in fact... Yes, there are all kinds of players. That doesn't excuse a lot of the decisions and corner cutting that happened in Neverwinter. As for the "we know they are listening" you're falling straight for the "jumping to conclusions" fallacy there. Until they state the reason why…
  • "NO! Now go back to your busy work and grind and ENJOY IT! it's TECHNICALLY FREE!"
  • Gold sellers: We do it because there's a MARKET for it, and we can compete with and outdo the actual company while making a mockery of their detection and responses to our practice of farming and selling etc. Publisher/Devs: We will not compete with the gold sellers because they're acting in an illegal manner In short:…
  • It's been written by plenty of developers and critics. The subject first came to the fore with ZT Online but this conversation will inevitably lead to the mentioning of the dreaded and forbidden "p2w" discussion, so it's best to not bother with it.
  • I would deem it junk if you can A: Do nothing with it immediately B: Only do something with it if you have to gamble it's worth repeatedly with an increasing chance that it will remove itself from existence. so if you're talking about the enchants. Dump em... Unless your idea of fun is being a packrat and turning this game…
  • I personally dislike the attitude of the OP in a gamer, there is a level of griefing in deliberately kill-tagging mobs that are nearly dead on folks from afar etc, but how many times has some little twerp told you to "leave the mobs here, i'm killing them solo" for no reason other than a sense that they have the right to…
  • "rouges are overpowdered"
  • still doesn't mean that the flat out nerf to their role (single target dps) is justified when you consider that it's in conjunction with the nerfs to stealth combat. literally massive percentages in dps loss are what is happening, and all this from the class with the WORST aoe presence in the game? This is taking with one…
  • "working as intended" - PWE monetization dept
  • This isn't the beginning of an attack, but I am curious to know if this is anecdotal evidence from your own experience, if so. This was exactly what was predicted early on in the open beta.
  • News flash: That "assassin" just lost a HUGE chunk of it's burst damage output. Was some of it needed? probably. But what would you prefer now? a gimped "assassin" or someone who can fire off ranged knockbacks on objectives with further impunity now that their natural enemy the TR is now nerfed. And you had better believe,…
  • Better get those free respecs and start handing them out as soothing lollipops to the now seriously traumatized TR's. Bet you any money they'll all just re-roll CW's now and pvp will become hilariously bad with them being rampant. Maybe we should rename them to "rouges" that way at least they can say they made TR's sound…
  • Missing keyword which makes this a rather "cool" but pointless story, "brother" "Exclusivity" That's just for a start. The sheer patronizing audacity to compare a 200 dollar founder pack's contents with a happy meal toy, is so ridiculous and insulting, that I'm actually unable to take it seriously, as the only reason you…
  • Ah the fanboy logic system :D "Are you being charged for it? no? then you can't have an opinion on it!" "you're being charged for it? Well naturally, they have to make money stop saying you don't want them to make money" <lolstrawman "You don't like it? you're being paid to say that by another games company that's jealous…
  • Did you...did you just answer your own question and not realize it?
  • It's really boils down to this; other games are simply doing the f2p microtransaction better than NW now. you can cry all you want about other games being mentioned such as rift etc, but the defense of the pricing in this game is hilariously bad. Since when is NW exempt as a company from being judged by how it meets…
  • Ignore the ad hominem attacks on you, and not having English as your first language is not a crime. But let's look at and dissect your post. your argument is basically saying "I've not played better, so this game is fine" that's all. In a nutshell you can boil it down to those few words. That means this point is just…
  • "Oh my god, how dare you think you could PLAY the actual game without the additional "auctioneer" aspect and remain successful!!!" The auction house in this game is the deal breaker, because it's mandatory. Sadly this is assumed to be a good thing and immediately is used as the go to excuse for everyone. Lame.
  • This is a very thin argument which reeks of bias. In fact it's a very odd way of seeing a game. A video game is mostly an INTERACTIVE form of intertainment, it requires you input time and skill to complete, if you don't PLAY the game, you don't GET to the end of it and see it all, it's not a book, or a movie which are just…
  • Best edit your post and thread to not name any names and simply deal with the actual issue of players being able to do this with no repercussions.
  • Understatement of the century. +1 internets for that.
  • no offense andre, but honestly I don't get why this threat to lock a thread would deter ANYONE who is here to troll, vex, irritate or flame the hell out of the thread because they disagree with the op. If anything that's going to give them the inclination that all they have to do is to keep provoking folks with rubbish ad…
