@(Unverified) Yep, Massively sure does hate SWToR. Except when they're covering it all the time, then to judge by the comments they're in Bioware's pockets. Except when Trion's paying them off to cover Rift, but whenever they don't do that they hate Rift, but no, now they're being paid off by blizzard to hate them both!
Face it, you - like many people determined to find anti- or pro- game you love/hate bias - are simply seeing what you want to see.
@Yog Yeah, I feel so bad for those poor players, trapped happily in a game they enjoy. They shall never know the experience of being a forum curmudgeon.
@xilr F2P games don't have subscriptions to count, true, but there are still metrics you can effect. If you stop buying, you stop contributing to their revenues. If you never log in, you stop contributing to their "concurrent users" count.
If you want to go that extra mile, change your e-mail address to a throwaway, change your password to gibberish. Make it absolutely clear you're never coming back.
The problem with "warning people away" is that that's a path toward seeming like a jaded troll, too. There are people on this site (who I won't name) who seem to love to follow the news about certain games around just so they can complain about them. At this point I think they've spent more time hating the game than playing it!
