It's about time to address the obvious issue. I'm not that much against the recent "Buy 90 lvl" feature as much as I'm getting the impression that accountants are running the game's direction these days. Shop buttons even on character selection is overdoing it now. Some guys would like to be immersed in the game, not reminded of the outside world at every turn. They actually want to play the game AND be immersed.. both don't go well I guess.
Buy this, buy that. Where's the passion for the actual game? Activision are so fast to implement their milking ways. This is actually the only game that is both subscription based and offer separately paid content (effectively using your subscription money to create content you can't possibly get unless you pay extra). And they do it because they get away, it's that simple. I know we are all good folks here but it won't hurt us at all to keep them on their greedy toes by being more vocally critical to their decisions (especially the milking ones), always.

The game is not struggling for its existence at all, which means that any faulty service is caused by greed alone.
Remember that when your realm is lagging that it was their greed that got you killed. Remember when there's no content and you're kind of bored.. it's greed that's restricting its creation. Remember when no one is answering your ticket in time that it's greed that's causing it. Any frustration you had with the game, greed it behind it. See the nasty greedy face of the god damn corporation ruining a fine product and stop protecting their lame operations. |

I was thinking about the supposedly next Blizzard project - Titan and thought it would probably make much more sense and be vastly more successful if they made World of Starcraft instead of some new project from the scratch (unless it's completely out of the picture revolutionary).
What do you guys think? I sure won't mind making some badass ranged marine, although they've kind of ruined the Starcraft story already. |
