Thread: SWG info
Yikes! An anti-SWG thread! Will see how long it takes to get deleted! Though I don't see any info from Luca's Team. Just the opinions of an editor at TheForce.net
Been up for 6 minutes!

Well while all that the article says is true...I still find it an entertaining game for the time being. None of the other RPGs appeal to me either so I'm stuck with SWG until something else comes along.
yep yep. igrew tired of the same fantasy, wizards and orc games. i came here to wield a gun....
Ah well... the game is still fun for me, so I'll donate my $15. You know what though... instead of turning off in-game maintenance to relieve the hurricane victims, I'd like to see a portion of my $15 go towards that.
When it's not fun anymore, I'll cancel/sell my account, until then? GAME ON!!!!
SoE is not the problem (well I'm sure in some form they are at least part of, but not the main) , the real problem IMO lies with the Dev team. EQ2 is a SoE game as well....in terms of problems (especially GM/CSR related) eq2 rolls over swg no problem. Same with bugs, same with content, same with most aspects of the game.
It is not as much SoE as the particular set of inbreads they have working on swg.
SOE pays the Dev team. If the Dev team wants to make something better yet SOE wants to remain cheap, the Dev team has no choice in the matter.
The Dev team is blaimed for too much. We dont deal with the "nerds" of days past who relished in making something better and more desirable, we now deal with salemen.
Salemen who want to make as much money as they can doing as little to get it as possible. The term quality no longer applies. Customer service is a name tag they place on an answering machine and a Customer Service Rep is someone who is underpaid if at all.
No, this poor game quality is not the Devs fault for they would probably be all too happy to have their names on a quality product. The fault lies with the people who pay the Devs and the salemen who are usualy holding psychology degrees to read the customer mindset. Psychology is the new and big business sales trend... what is the least required to maintain a good sales base return.
No, Im not joking. Even products like instant cake mix were failing products before they brought in the psychologist sales teams to determine a house wife felt guilty using the stuff...... unless she could at least add in the egg. Thats all it took. The house wives felt they were actualy making something, guilt was forgotten, sales went through the roof.
Enjoy your gaming, your just a pawn at this point.
