They've taken WOW, and they've runed it.

Another free MMO... I wonder how long this MMO debacle can continue.... there are lots in production and many still running, but not enough people to make them all a success long term. Its only going to end in tears for many MMOs in the next 12-16 months I think.

I don't think i've ever actually heard of a F2P closing actually. A P2P is more likely to close due to, u'know, fees and stuff.
And I've had the rug pulled out from under me on a few occasions with P2P - it hurts when that happens. Anyway, I've played this, its ok. As F2Ps go its probably one of the better ones out there. Its just a shame they didn't copy WoW's movement system as well ;)

I played the Beta and it all seemed technically sound, it all worked but it just lacked that spark. It was like listening to Muzak - you knew the tune, it was note-perfect and it filled the silence but it was just soulless.

Dev 1
"I know, let's make a free game like RuneScape, but that's also good like World of Warcraft." Dev 2 Great idea. Maybe it can be 'inspired' by other games like Heroes of Might and Magic'!" Dev 1 "Sure, why not. All we have to do now is think of an original name... Dev 2 "I've got it... Runes of Magic! Dev 1 Genius. Right, where's the number for that gullible Venture Capitalist we met at E3?

Seriously, who has time for more than one MMO? And if you're playing your one mmo, why should you settle for a cheap-and-cheerful copy of WoW rather than WoW itself, if that style of game floats your boat? Seems they've intentionally pidgeonholed themselves into catering for the cannot-afford-wow crowd only... Talk about missed opportunities.

5 of my friends have been permenantly banned from the game without PROOF of ANY infraction.
They did not even give them the option to refute the ban, nor did they show the evidence for the ban. Then when they made a new account, and a toon with a similiar name, they banned that account just for having a similiar name to the banned account. These people have spent over $600 on the game, and it is all just taken away without even given a chance to defend yourself. If you are going to play, I wouldn't spend a dime. |
