What Makes a Success?

Over the last few years, we’ve seen an absolute explosion in the amount of MMOs being released. A lot of them came about purely because WoW was such a success. The result, it seems, is that these games are being measured against WoW to determine if they’re successful or not. Now, I think we can …

The Multiverse – Episode #22: “The Greenest Grass is Always Lego”

Happy Hump Day Folks! We’re back this week with the much delayed Episode 22 of The Multiverse: MMO Radio. We first tried this show back on the ninth – right before real names on the forums got canceled – but, as luck would have it, my hard drive crashed and the show was lost. But, …

Let’s talk about the problems with Aion

Since criticizing Aion seems to be all the rage, I think it’s about time that I toss my hat into the ring with the issues I’ve seen and foresee as problems. I’m not writing this post in agreement with anybody because, frankly, I don’t agree with a lot of the doom and gloom people are …

Actually, story does matter.

Sometimes, trolls get the best of you. I mirrored yesterday’s post on WoWRiot and the very first commenter, Pink, threw this out at me: “go rp nerd. no1 cares about what a quest involves, only what the reward is.” The asshat couldn’t have even read the article because what I’m saying is that I stopped …

Did NCSoft fire their writers?

Just a brief quote that made me wonder. This is from Gamasutra’s interview with Brian Knox, lead from the Aion Online team: “We had some really talented writers — still do, actually.” Okie. What I read from that is that some of the more remarkable writers got cut. His little correction (“— still do, actually.”) …
