'Me like.' by Akely Submitted on 2008-04-01 03:51:33 CST Kill D&D recap:
The story aspect... Thats the core of the game. But how to get that into MMO's? I think that live events would be good for this. They don't have to be huge, just having some characters that you could TALK to that could be quest-givers - or perhaps information-givers. SOE should pay me top dollars for doing this. Call me Grimwell!
Forums:
The discussion regarding the games will take place regardless of the game company participates or not. So either the company tries to get it's message out, or it gets no message out. The gamers will get their message out anyway, including the abusers.
The reason we do not have a 1-1 relationship is probably Anonymity. But in reality it should be easier to moderate the Internet. Banning is just a button click away. People must be held accountable for their actions.
PC gaming is dead:
I have lots to say about this... but Brenden said it best in his Podcast: http://www.anotherhere.com/archives/157/Podcast-41-PC-gaming-isn't-dead,-idiots!
Beta Leaks:
Now THERE is a good reason to have official forums. Some people might not understand that beta means stuff not working as intended, lock of pol... erm you-know-what. A developer that does not try to check and explain that head-on-ass thing is now "fixed" kind of says "not fixed". "The one who stays silent agrees."
A very enjoyable show - even though the My Little Pony Patrol was missing...
