Obviously the man who's played DDO for maybe 10 hours is going to have a far superior understanding of the game than the people whom have played for hundreds and hundreds of hours.



I still think that there is a rule at Turbine that the employees are not allowed to actually play the games they work on under any circumstances.

It's the only possible explanation.

I'm assuming you say that tongue-in-cheek?

In games development there would be an expectation that you understand the game enough to design, test and balance content or make informed system changes. I believe that some game houses have regular formal times for devs to play and interact (in work hours).  You can imagine that if you're working on a game all day, going home to play it at night wouldn't be that exciting.....

Understanding the game would require some play, and anecdotal evidence is that they do play, but probably not enough to actually understand what players dislike.

I thought the whole premise of the OP is stupid. Who gives a fuck what Severlin thinks? What Turbine needs is a cleansing of the old guard who think they're doing good for the game to people who actually do good for the game.

Lexx is a series about an enormous space penis and the adventures of its support staff.

they will probably congratulate themselves on how long they "kept it going" never able to see that it could have easily managed to keep itself going for far longer if they had just meddled far less drastically and with some semblance of an actual gameplan.

Hearing something has "merit" but we don't have "time" kind of says everything about how Turbine works on things.

Other companies will settle for shitting out garbage, Turdbin actually prefers to. Especially if they can get us to buy it, that just cracks them up.

Breaking something and putting it back together isn't as good as not breaking it to begin with, it's not even close.

Devs do not care what players want - they already have an agenda and give out token gestures so the paladins can feel worthy.

The DDO devs aren't motivated by a positive user experience.

That was my point; the system changes they keep making are anything but, "informed."

Yeah, I tried to watch Lexx. I enjoyed the brief visit of Malcolm McDowell's voice but otherwise the series seemed too painfully stupid to watch. Does it have redeeming qualities?

Probably? That suggests the possibility that they do understand what players dislike. Which would mean they're doing this to us on purpose.

You can turn it off. That improves it tenfold.

The most broken epic PL in the game is the ridiculous AC buff from martial PLs. But when you include all the inherent benefits from reincarnation, the thing is above the roof. The benefit from TR was supposed to be minimal, but now it is game breaking. start a new character and you will feel, you will get raped in heroics.

Personally I think lower heroics on new characters are harder than Legendary Elite content on a character with good gear and has all destinies farmed.

Wow.

Have you EVER gone to Law School Feyn? Have you EVER been asked by a United States Senator who is now the Vice President of the United States to write a paper just for him on a particular topic of Constitutional Law for his use as a Senator? Have you ever been asked to help a very notable Harvard PhD turned Constitutional scholar with his very-well received book on Legal Philosophy and Constitutional Revolutions? Have you ever been offered a job as a Deputy Attorney General BEFORE you even graduated Law School?

No? Then STFU you fucking amateur.
