SOE offers EQII guild name changes for $55

Jul 9th 2010 3:17PM (Massively)
I'm always amazed at the poor spelling of guild names on MMOs. I mean, really? You couldn't take 3 seconds to google the name to make sure it was spelled correctly? And now you're stuck with it for life. Oh scratch that. Now you can fix your stupid mistake for $55.

DCUO video shows off new combat

I hate Jim Lee's influence on the character models. Everyone is too beefy and stocky. It has the same sheen to surfaces that CO has, making everything look like it's made of velvet. Meh... having a hard time mustering any interest in this.

Face of Mankind adds new NPCs and city

This is like a vegetarian deciding he's going to eat meat. I mean, the whole point of FoM was that it didn't have NPCs; that every person you met in the game was controlled by a human player. It looks like it will now become a very generic MMO with 2002 graphics.

The Daily Grind: How many deaths before you call it?

No death penalty means no strategy. In STO, for example, the only character or ship "build" you really need is one that is 100% offense. There's no point in defense, debuffs, healing, positioning or anything else. Just go in with guns blazing. If you die, oh well. Respawn, rinse and repeat.

Games with a death penalty force you to think, to strategize, to use teamwork.

1996 called. It wants its game back.

Cryptic continues reaching out to fans with new GM blog

Feb 12th 2010 9:19PM (Massively)
If you were Cryptic, which would you rather have: a vocal, angry group of players and former-players complaining in great detail about what they'd like to see changed, or players who simply unsubscribe and walk away in silence? There's a reason MMOs ask you to fill out an exit survey when you quit.

Global Agenda launch trailer released

Let me get this straight: 10 vs 10 third-person shooter? Oh hell no!

Roleplaying and the lack of it in MMOs

Right. You can RP for hours with 3 or 4 other good role players standing in an empty room.

Near Death Studios closes down

So many possible puns in the title of this article, and yet you go with "closes down" ? What a wasted opportunity.
