Yes

A very large number of those players are enjoying the experience of just playing. The levelling is secondary to many of them, they just enjoy playing their character. I don't think you understand this mindset of the ultra casual gamer, which is understandable as you come from a very different game ...

I know this is true both in DAoC and in other games, but I'd be willing to bet a large number of those players just leveling one character after another are not actually enjoying doing it. MMORPGs, and also single-player CRPGs before them, typically offer this carrot of level gains, and it plays upo...

With the exception of Mah Jong, those are played against humans, so would not be considered PvE in any case. Even for Mah Jong, or computer games versions of the others, you're not playing against static content. You may think so, because the game MECHANICS do not change, but the CONTENT of those ga...

Been thinking about coming back again. Utterly bored with other games. If I do, I'll see if IW are the sort of thing your new alliance wants. Natures Eye was a great place to be, mainly through the influence of Artisans and Green Peacekeepers during my time there, so no doubt your new one will be to...

I think if the original post had been something to the effect of "FS invites guilds to merge" it would not have invited discussion, but Satyn did make a couple of comments in her invitation suggesting that such mergers would make the the game more fun or help combat population dropping issues. Nothi...
