Haha! That was me that asked Rubi about her thoughts on Free Realms' sub + cash shop model. I feel special now. ^_^

Derek Smart is my HERO!!! LMAO, He has been the source of so many laughs for me lately. He should give up on the ruining of gaming companies thing and do stand up comedy. He could flame members of the audience.

Sounds like he got under Massively's skin. Bad move on his part!

I tried his Alganon, and true to form, graphics were a mix between WOW and Allods, which Gpotato has even gone as far as Nerfing Login. I felt like I was playing WOW Lite. Of course having a life and only a 7 day trial, I couldn't give the game time to grow on me, if it would at all. I didn't have the feeling that I was playing a game made by someone that holds a PHD. I DID feel like I was being antagonized by a game made by someone that holds a PHD though.
Shawn is right, Derek not so Smart has made Alganon all about him, another bad move.

I have an Idea!! We can all join in on the fun, I'll make a game called "Derek Smart PHD Online", where you level by insulting other players. End game will be an instanced dungeon with the Massively staff as mobs and Shawn as the Final boss lol. Sorry man, had to go there!
