It's as simple as that and, to be honest, it's great for the entire genre that it happened. Players deserve complete, polished products. They deserve fully-realized gaming experiences. They deserve stability. People who play MMORPGs are passionate, dedicated, engaged and willing to give just about anything a chance. Recognize that, respect that and then deliver a game that isn't crap and you'll be rewarded by the fans." I couldn't agree more with this paragraph. Companies deserve their money but we also deserve to get the best product possible for what we pay. Speaking on pay, any new information on how much the pay-to-play will be? More than $15 less than $20? Still thinking about it? “Number One Lesson WoW Has Taught Us All ™ is that you cannot, under any circumstances, launch a buggy, incomplete or unpolished product.

RvR in DAOC kept the game interesting for years after I achieved level 50. It also drove the requirement to gain things in PvE like Master Levels and new gear to remain competitive, which I wasn't the hugest fan of. That's why I'm happy that some of the best gear in WAR will come from pillaging your enemy's home town. Keep it all tied to RvR and I'll be a fan for life. :) I loved the Superbowl analogy. :) MMORPGs really are all about sustainable player membership and PvE Raid grinds are NOT the way to go in my opinion.
