Competition is good for the industry imo

Profchaos751d ago

Say that to the hundreds of mmorpgs that are dead and burried because they chose to compete with wow since 2005

FF XIV seems to be doing just fine. But then again, they have an actual compelling story and the best soundtrack of any MMO. I played WoW for over 12 years and could not make heads or tails of the story after a while. It was like trying to keep up with Mortal Kombat lore, lol.

porkChop750d ago

It's a shame they cancelled EverQuest Next. I was really looking forward to that game even though I usually hate MMOs.

CantThinkOfAUsername751d ago

The only thing it's gonna kill is itself.

senorfartcushion751d ago

Why do most MMOs look like Warcraft? Do something else.

FinalFantasyFanatic750d ago

This, there are other art styles, if I saw this game in passing, I would just assume that it's WOW, standing out with a unique art style is generally a plus for a new game.

LightofDarkness751d ago

Yes, just like all those games between 2008 and 2012 that replaced WoW. Oh, wait…

DeathTouch751d ago

Not in 2012, but nowadays… Depends on what you are talking about. Player base? Yes, it is already not the number one anymore. Therefore, replaced. Quality? Yes, there are already much better looking and fluid MMO’s in the market. Therefore, replaced. I’m sure I’m missing sum’.

gleepot750d ago

You are wrong on all counts.

Profchaos751d ago

I'd say even earlier to later so many games tried to go at wow directly appealing to the more hardcore crowd and failing every time

It would be nice if they had the lottery in other parts of the world as well.

Putting Ads in a pay-to-play Premium title? Well done Microsoft. Well done /s This is really scummy.

jjb19816d ago

This game will never change because these sweatlords love buying up all the skins and bundles that become obsolete the following year. They're the ones perpetuating Activision's greed.

VenomUK5d ago

If Microsoft introduces adverts into its other games I hope it can do them without disrupting the immersion of the game world. So for example in the new Fable game it would look out of place if there was a billboard advertising Cadillacs.

A far better way to do it would be to have a wizard conjure a 'dream cloud' in front of your character and then in the cloud you can see the Cadillac car and see the text with price and availability and hear a booming sales voice promoting the car. That would work so well as it wouldn't be a billboard and completely, 100%, fit in with your character's adventuring in Albion. Doesn't that sound so much better?!

crazyCoconuts5d ago

@venom, or how about our of 100 farts in Albion, 1 of them has a Cadillac pop out

VenomUK5d ago

@crazyCoconuts That’s undeniably off-beat - but it could really work!
