Is he? I don't know? I won't agrue that the game is "failing". I don't think that's the case. It certainly failed me on a personal level.

But, there is a stink of deperation by Mythic in the sheer blitz of trials, rewards, and incentives they'll offer anyone willing to pay for the game for one month. Especially considering that it's the most recent AAA title released.

If this was say, City of Heroes or even LOTRO, I'd be less judgmental. But, for a 7 month old game that's the new big dog on the block, it seems desperate.

Then again, I do think the economy factors in. As well as EA's demands on the studio.
