comment And I can totally agree with that. They created EVE as an experiment at first. I think it's important to differentiate EVE and WoD. Just because they did EVE does not mean they will intend to make WoD More
comment I was thinking about this as I was dozing off to sleep last night (how's THAT for some dedicated thinking?), and I think I came to the conclusion that CCP and White Wolf should make a game first and More
comment http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/zero-punctuation/208-Eve-Online This video pretty accurately reflects my views of EVE More
comment My EVE comment was more because Fetch said he was bored by EVE and so would hope WoD wouldn't be boring. So, since I didn't find EVE boring myself - I'm not so concerned about CCP making a boring More
comment The only sandbox game I have any experience with is EVE so I must admit my knowledge is limited to that, with Eve however, I can say that the PvE does very little to "bring you into the sandbox" The More
comment #1.- Sandbox games are amusing but could be limited to those ones who get immersed in the game in some way. In WoD, PvE would be used to bring new players to the sandbox, if the MMO world set for WoD More
comment Don't get me wrong - EVE is great for EVE. It makes a hell of a lot of sense to have a bunch of mercenary businessmen controlling massive amounts of intergalactic finance.It's just that when you take More
comment I have concerns over any MMO, and of course over things in WoD. Personally, I never found EVE to be boring so I am not overly concerned about that. I enjoyed EVE. I'll admit, the traveling could be More

Not TOO Economical, I Hope

"Economy of blood".The phrase is enough to send shivers down one's spine, and possibly make one salivate at the possibilities in a vampire MMORPG. But let's face it - economics are complicated, and games are meant to be fun. How far do we really want the developers to run with this phrase? I'm

The Poetics of the WODMMO

The idea that the WODMMO is going to have a "poetic" UI has been bandied about for a while now, and the developers are going for a much more "cinematic" gaming experience than what we've seen to date. Exactly how they're going to accomplish this, we have little idea, and there's enough speculation

Her Head Lolz to the Side

Immersion and the Sad Fact of the Interwebz Let's be honest with ourselves for a moment, here: we're a minority community. We are roleplayers, LARPers, gaming geeks, and vampire enthusiasts. Even in an MMO that seems tailor-made for our particular niche of interests, there are going to be those who

The Gilded Cage
