I think the writing in this article is the best so far Buc has written. It flows well, and has a good synergy.

If I knew more about computers I could be more technical but my forte is writing. That part you did well on, the tech stuff I defer to others to comment on. :)

good article! A suggestion from me would be combining some of the short sentences early on in the article. Other then that another piece of good writing my friend :)

Good article, good writing. I would disagree with the first MMO however. NN was not an MMO but rather a game with online play. It wasn't massive like Ultima Online was in 1998.

I play GW (I'm one of Buc's guildies) and I also sometimes long for that unforgiving pvp as you described Droniac. I played on UO's pvp server for two years and it was a lot of fun but as Buc pointed out, there's a lot more drama too when it's a free for all and you can be looted.

The other problem with that form of pvp is there's no clear winner or loser, it becomes like an adult version of guns where you and your friend argue if he shot you or not. Then it spills over to the fan forums.

I think that's why I went with GW, when the fight is over I've either won or lost. Hard to spin that on a message board.

very good article! Lots of information, enough for someone like me who never plays these kinds of games to think about the genre. :)

why would hardcore gamers want the 103rd review of a popular game? I'd rather hear about games that aren't the most popular. I agree that the writing is good but needs more sustinence. :)
