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

Systems of Control

I want to lose control. There. I said it. Does that make me weird? Maybe....   One of the strongest themes in the World of Darkness is the constant threat of losing control of yourself. The first question that usually comes to mind is: Why is this a bad thing? The answer is more complex than you

The Gilded Cage

"Foolishness it were for any being free,   To covet fetters, though they golden bee."-Edmund Spenser, the Amoretti, sonnet 37, lines 13-14 You must have heard this phrase by now, especially if you're a Requiem player: The term is most likely borrowed from cages wrought in the 1800s to house exotic

The Prince: A Dangerous Duty

Okay you've created your character, you know who she is, and where she came from. You know the storyteller's setting and who all the major players are. So whats your character's first goal?

Wait...why? The game hasn't started yet and you have no reasons to dislike the Prince other than the fact that he is the Prince.

“but..isn't that what you do?”

Who we Gon' Git and How to Bring 'em in?
