Technically the same could have been said about EverQuest in 1998, but it worked out just fine.

And on the flipside, Sony has had plenty of MMO experience since then and still can't seem to get it right.

Experience in this genre is overrated.

Good ideas, design, and implementation > Experience.
pretty much this.

I am by no means excited for this to come out, but i would like to try it, my mmo days are casual at best anymore (and free, thats why i am here).

But for those who give a shit about my 2 cents read on.

I WILL heavily defend DAoC, i see a few people saying its pve was too easy and instanced. It wasnt always that way, Jacobs and Firor did a GREAT job with PvE being simple and quick and get you into the action early on, Trials of Atlantis brought on a big grind to PvE (since a lot of people had a ton of alts). So as far as DAoC comes, you cant really bash it whatsoever (until EA bought out mythic and instancing came and everything turned into a giant shitpile of a disaster) because it served its purpose, it was fun, and everyone loved it and created a past time for many just like EQ did (after all, why are we here?). Its just too bad the DAoC private servers are SHIT.

As far as the daoc crew creating WAR and SWTOR, after EA bought out mythic, there were numerous trickle down layoffs, and all of those people went their seperate ways, were those people from daoc? possibly, but how much of a say did they really have in place of their other team mates? people usually want NEW ideas (even though they turn into whats already been done).

There will be no bomb dropped like WoW ever again. I hate WoW... with a passion, but its just not going to happen, it was a revolutionary game, and people want that massive bomb to drop again, and companies want to be that bomb. Its all already been done, because if wow didnt do it, a wow clone did, and had that idea as an extension.

"BUT GW2 HAS A TUCK AND ROLL AND HEAL YOURSELF!!!" Darkfall anyone?


Like I said, from here on out in the MMO world, its personal preference, enjoy your stay.
