Did this game deliver on the hype?

this is not new...

players want something that was done right before with a little new innovations in it. So just stop that crap already... it's old. That's business, take what millions enjoyed before and add some pep to it.

DDUUUHHHH

/agree

I have that sinking feeling to. Having an ok STORY, and the game being STAR WARS is about all this games cracked up to be.

GW2

Dominus

Archeage

These are games that arent scared to try some new things. I just hope they dont get dumbed down at one point or another to please the retarded wow crowd thats been created over the past years.

someday....we will see NO themepark grinders and it will be all about the sandboxes ...

Happen it will....

how can you say a game will die.

what major releases have died so far.

any?

I cant think of one , correct me if im wrong. What Major game has shut down

please respond with some small title that went from 1,000 players to zero.

Warhammer: Age of Reckoning went straight down the crapper after a pretty large launch.

is the game still running? Yes

was it a major release comparable to SWTOR , no.

Warhammer is still going.

it is not dead.

why did you even bother responding with Warhammer? Do you have any critical thinking abilities? Why did you think this was a valid response.

Yeah, good point. I guess the only one that shut off completely was Tabula Rasa. How large that was, I'm not entirely sure.

I thought Everquest was " Dead " when i stopped playing.

That was 6 years ago


still going...

Vanguard was released in '07 i believe with no expansions and only small content updates.

still going...


could go on and on..

Unfortunately, no. Too many aspects missing.

Except Gamespot did run an article on it....research before posting please.

Edit: and after further research, so did GameInformer, IGN, and most other major gaming websites

I doubt it's going to die. Too many loyal bioware fans and people who enjoy rolling alts. Plus you can't underestimate the whole friend factor, as a lot of people simply play games because they are friends with someone who may like the game. So I think it will linger around for quite some time.

I agree it's not going to be the next big thing though, and there will start to be massive fall out after 6 months or so. This game just doesn't have what it takes to keep gamers interested for a long period time. The endgame is just too weak and boring, and the ride to 50 is over with too fast.

Did it deliver on the hype? Nope. I was expecting a lot more than I got. This game was essentially a solid single-player game with a co-ope mode available with the added bonus of a WoW-style endgame attached to the end - minus the effective LFD tool. I enjoyed the game for the first month I had it. But this is no where close to being one of those games that are going to hold your attention for years to come. After 50 the game rapidly losses its appeal.

Hopefully Bioware can turn it around though.
