This includes queries from their readership as well as some found on the forums for the upcoming MMORPG sequel. The result is a very detailed rundown on what to expect. Thanks Ant via wusel.

Goon Squad still exists, or rather, SA still exists?

I think the last time I saw them in any sort of concerted effort was at WoW's launch.

SA has more users than ever dude, it never went anywhere. It's become almost unwieldly now, there's sub forums for god damn everything.

Arenanet isn't CCP and GW2 ain't EvE, so don't think the same sort of shit that keeps EvE a niche game will happen anywhere else. CCP is happy to be a big fish in its own pond. Other companies actually want to attract new business, which they can't do if they're anything like EvE/CCP. So it sounds like you guys won't be around long which is good for everyone else.

The Eve guys are pretty much a separate offshoot. We're in every major online game and we play by the rules so they can't get rid of us just for being large and coordinated. You're going down son




Playing: Faster Than Light, Tales of Graces F, Fire Emblem 3DS Watching: Ghost in the Shell, Hannibal, Oblivion
