Title: An Interesting Read
Post by: Virisin on May 24, 2008, 11:50:50 pm

Just read this article by a pretty intelligent dude. I'd like to claim it for my own, but Erwin or Fiz would call me out. :( Anyhow, right from the start I agreed with what it had to say, regarding levels pulling people apart. Which seems even more pronounced on 4d with tiers and remorts.

Also, here's an article by the same guy on a quest he made which is rather in depth..

I enjoyed this guy's perspective immensely. Pick of the week.

oh man, i was ALMOST done when I clicked a link and was told that the client had exceeded his CPU quota... couldn't even get the page out of history!!

but this, as a whole, is a very comprehensive article. Thanks for posting.

P.S this also confirms what i've been screaming for 3 years:






WoW is > EQ.

WoW is garbage. World of Warcrack or Evercrack, their both lacking in anything that matters to real gamers. real gamers meaning the ones that like depth and gameplay instead of shiny graphics.
