Actually he said "I have yet to hear anyone who has played Alganon for any duration call it a "WoW ripoff". That means, people who stick around for more than five minutes and play the game. Certainly, there are tons of people who can't see past the surface, but that's just the attitude of the gaming majority these days. I think the game shows promise, and the fact that they are up-front about what isn't going to be live and what is says a lot for how much they care about what the players, (people who are paying to play) think about the game and such. Writing the game off so soon shows a lack of understanding the market as a whole.

They own the software and hardware and they are a small team. They don't need 1 million or even 200,000 subscribers to get by.

They have a loyal fan base that likes the game and their input is appreciated by the devs.

As far as I'm concerned, this is a game to watch.

On the being upfront and caring about there players...The devs blandly ignore the fact that there games a rip off. Secondly They didn't even tell the players that all the advertised features on there website won't be in at launch and had pre orders up. Thirdly, they said the game wouldn't have an open beta and blah blah and out of nowhere they set an open beta date. I agree that support wise the devs are awesome but development and game wise there not. Also im not just a wow fanboy trolling im actually playing the game and have been for over 2 months, i acknowledge what there doing and think the game could be great but im just sick of them lying like this.
