	are the all like 'ohshitohshitohshitohshitohshitohshitohshitohshitohshitohshitohshitohshit'.� or are they all like 'fuck those doofuses, they dont know shit.� i want a new swimming pool, lets sell more SP pots'. or maybe they are all like 'lol they just arent sophisticated enough to understand how ironically we are breaking the game right now and alienating a large portion of our current player-base by forcing them to regear and respec almost all of their characters to be efficient in our new system.� pip pip cheerio'. so what do you think?

I abandoned my main in EQ2(and EQ2 itself) after they did a "balancing" pass that took my character from a strong soloing character to a character that was only good in a group.

	Hopefully they aren't jumping out windows or anything. The game is still fun, even if we have a lot to say about how wrong they are.

	Playing SWTOR. My conspiracy theory is that they are creating all the Forgotten realms buzz while pushing away the player base so that they can move this game to the back burner and make a new Forgotten Realms Online game from scratch. Effectively DDO2 the way we think it should have been from the start.

	I have a bet with a buddy that with the declining server pop they wanted to cash in on this "expansion" get some loot and then kill the game and walk away to make something else. I dunno about most of you but I gave them $140 out of pocket, that's a fair bit when you think of all the people that came back or came in because it was FR stuff. No I don't think this is any of the devs that talk to us, its the suits, bottom line it for me, types.

	I think they are all wildly running around, wildly moving their arms ( read : flapping ) and making weird noises ( read : making chicken sounds ). I didn't say anything about headless chickens.

	I think that they are working hard and trying hard. They are the people that brought us Lord of Blades recently, so like I Don't think they suck. That's a great quest. They have a problem. Legacy C code that is tied to a graphics engine that just isn't a modern one. So they've got a lot of weirdness and kluge in what they can do. They have limited degrees of movement. The game is for me a pleasurable hobby, so I do hope that it remains viable for a while. So, after the experienced player has asked them to be bold and try hard and do some major things, like druid, they're probably hoping we'll cut them a little bit of slack if their late June release is a little buggy. As in, honestly, all the Turbine-trashing is a little boring. I mean, you like their product enough to play it. I bet they're nervous as hell, just like we are, that they might break it. I bet they're working real hard not to.

	Quote: do some major things, like druid And I was excited for druid. It might have been the thing to make me finally like DDO. I really love shape-shifting characters. But I just don't care to find out anymore. I've stopped logging into the game at all. And aside from all of Turbine's missteps, I think what did it for me were the events. So much farming for such small rewards. Ice games, mabar, pirates cove. And then the challenges made that shit permanent. Farm for 10000 pieces of 5 different things? No thank you. Not enough hours in the day to bother with that.� So, technically, no, I don't like their product enough to play it anymore.
