Oh, they most certainly can turn people away.

Further reading from a first person perspective:

Looks trivial if you bring a Gravitational Beam Emitter along.

Will always be one of my favorites.

This really was a great flick.

Michelle Alexander is supporting him, I think.

That doesn’t take long either...

Yes. I have.

It is true that EQI and II were in rough spots before the property was sold, but those issues are uniquely different than those that have been addressed in the last year.

It is also true that AA are relatively easy to get, but you are jumping from point A to point B by not asking what makes these…

The cultural void generated by all the Hikikomori/NEET people will at least hopefully mean that all the worst pop culture elements in the world will transition from public spaces into forms like Twitch that pipe this shit straight into your heads.

You are fooling yourself if you think that Daybreak = SOE.

“Daybreak” spent very little time, if any, on EQ Next, from all accounts. It was developed primarily under SOE.

“They could have scrapped everything and said “We’re going to make a WoW clone” years ago...”

When exactly do you think SOE became Daybreak? It was little more than a year ago. The result is what you would expect if Bain Capital had bought EQ.

Daybreak is an extension of an investment firm. They are concerned with…

No? SW:G has nothing to do with Daybreak, anyway.

It may sound like “they didn’t feel like the game would live up to the expectations,” but what they actually mean is that they are having plenty of fun micro-transactioning the fuck out of ppl on EQ 1 and 2, so why risk working on something else.

As I said to another poster, Daybreak has no idea what “fun” is. After their EQ takeover, they’ve put know-nothing in all sorta of positions and changed “fun” abilities that have been in the game for many years and replaced them with nothing.

Daybreak has absolutely no fucking idea what “fun” is. Don’t believe a word of it.

This.

I feel no sympathy for the guilty.

Didn’t even notice that. Way to phone-it-in, Ashcraft.

I like Brian’s posts on Japan most of the time, but this one is so lazy.

He could have explained why this was censored now by explaining what an OVA is, more about current trends in Anime/TV censorship, and how censorship is used in humorous ways in anime as well.

C’mon Brian. Don’t turn into Richard!
