Not when you take into account that the people he speaks of proclaim the death of an MMO based on nothing but hyperbole, bias, and sensationalism.

How is that any different from blatant prejudice?
It's different because a minority of opinion is different from a racial minority. It helps that this minority's argument is built upon sand rather than stone.

Actually, yes. Exactly that. By that time, it'll be time for an expansion or a DLC or whatever you call, it to expand story for all characters.

Well... if those who rage-quitted in last week were a majority, that is... more than half of the playerbase... my server queue would be gone. If those forum posts would represent the majority of the playerbase, we would see the game empty right now. Somehow, that is not the case. In fact, my guild had the most players online since the early access yesterday. That tells me that rage-quitters are in fact an insignificant minority.

It's funny, while the industry is raving about how good the game the vocally minority is posting how bad it is.... If i wasn't actually playing the game I still would trust game reviews over forums. Face it, the game has minor issue that need to be ironed out but nothing to make the game unplayable to the general public. I'm also not going to be surprised when I see the same ppl next month saying the same thing even though they re-up for another month of play.

Combat delay, single player feel, bad UI, no pvp brackets........that is not bias, hyperbole, or sensationalism.

Our argument is based on we know what an MMO is rather than console single player gamers who came here because they saw Star Wars, the people who experienced MMOs for many years (before even WoW) are the people that will stick around when the "great story" leveling is over.

I wouldn't because you will never find an honest review from major reviewers, they are either paid by the developers or their competitors (mostly developers) to say things........don't believe me? Ask the reviewer for Gamespot who got fired for giving a bad review of Kane and Lynch 2.
You can't just ask customers what they want and then try to give that to them. By the time you get it built, they'll want something new. - Steve Jobs

You do realize 80% of all quests are shared by each class right?

You're being a bit conservative, it feels more like 90%.

The people I laugh hardest at are the people who think that at some point the complaining is goign to suddenly cease.

We've been hearing this, "I can't wait until xxx so all the trolls will leave" post since before beta. First it was "can't wait for beta, so everyone will see how awesome the game is," then it was "can't wait for EGA so only the people who preordered and love the game will still be here," then it was "can't wait until launch so all the people who cancelled their preorderes will go away..."

Do me a favor and hold your breath until the complaining stops on the forums.
