well, when u realize that most of population is dumb its easy to figure that MMO to be really massive has to be dumb, simple and kitchy. But u hardly find any good developer wanting to do that:)

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.

And someone in another thread called ME delusional recently!

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.

Pretty sure that the fact that a service can be hacked doesn't make it the "community chest".

I'm of the mind that to truly redefine the MMO genre a company like blizzard with enough funding needs to do it. I think an approach of some thing more like how sigil functioned in DND planescapes  a central hub for online socializing and access to an ever expanding list of entire worlds to wander and explore.

The only company ever to try anything close to that remains a stable and ever increasing and that's the company behind the entropia universe MMO which is actually like four or five different game worlds with distinct differences all on the same engine as a platform and the ability to travel between them.

DDO should never of been eberron and storm reach. It should of been sigil. That's an actual self contained city that people can't expect to just come and go through nor have an entire world around. We then could of seen expansions being new worlds as they acquired the right to use them.

The issue of course much of every campaign setting isn't even owned by wotc dragonlance first and foremost. But even many classics. Pretty much anything not reproduced during wotcs various reprint classics eras is off limits. Many classic bits of art and even maps also. Its one reason they went so hardcore realms supporting because it alone is all theirs and men like greenwood who have sold themselves body mind and soul to that company.

Wait... guy in article talking about working at 38 Studios....

Didn't 38 Studios default on a city co-signed loan and left the townspeople holding the bag/footing the bill on a multi-million dollar debt?

Lol, I was thinking the same thing.  Then I realized that whatever bank I moved to would be bought by Wells within a few years anyway, so what's the point?

They bought the bank that bought the bank that I opened an account at 25 years ago...
  

No, let me be Frank.

I've had multiple RoSS rot just from doing the explorer points in Sands across multiple lives since it is exclusive.

I will not chone.

I did what I did intentionally and while my primary purpose was not to annoy the other Vaulties, I acknowledge that it was a side effect.


Smart people don't elicit "side effects."  They understand in advance the consequences of their actions.
