Daybreak Games, formerly Sony Online Entertainment, formerly Vrrant Interactive, have been going downhill since 2002 or so when they banned an entire guild for breaking a part of the game the players shouldn't have even been able to break. (Poor foresight and an average mistake led to a lot of corporate grief for Verant, 989, and Sony.) Since then, they've just been on a long slide into oblivion. :( The Everquest franchise, for the most part, has been a great thing from a story perspective. Company management of said franchise, and game mechanic desicions, has been less than ideal. More than a few other games they've done they just haven't done enough to keep players excited about the game, or the game fresh enough to bring people back in.

I keep trying to go back to EQ, EQ2, and Planetfall 2, but they just don't have the money, foresight, or something to make them great again. At least Blizzard keeps people coming back for more every couple of years.

I somewhat feel sorry for all of you that have gotten attached to H1Z1, but this is just the destiny of a company that can't seem to learn from its own mistakes.

I was so pissed when I found out daybreak bought PlanetSide 2. I've only played a few sessions since they bought it out, but I strongly felt it went down hill hard

Well, Daybreak is all of Sony Online Entertainment. It was some business deal that went down because Sony wanted to divest themselves of a failing division and basically made them sink or swim. Same development teams (more or less... not sure how many lost jobs because of it), same executive officers (more or less... I know same few people have been at the helm since the Verant days).

What? Why? That game seems interesting, i was just pointing it out for you guys ... is not out yet, btw ...

P.S. I haven't played the alpha, idk if good or bad.


there is a group of us from Haven who tryed it.
The game is very earily. I hope the devs work on it ALOT more.
it's basically a simple leveling game with open world pvp.
Noting really gives you drive other then leveling...
So yeah I hope that game stays lowkey till it's ready to show it's self.
Else the MMO effect will take place and people will hate it into noting.

shit I remember dark orbit from when I was a kid. I was 11 when that started. I used to trawl the web for stuff I could play for free. Ended up playing a crafting mmo set in ancient egypt (released in 2003 but I probably played it in 06), called 'A tale in the desert'

Thinking back to that, the satisfaction I got from it back when I was a kid isn't too far from what I get out of hnh now. Though it's more similar to WURM without combat.

Also no one's mentioned Geneforge here yet but when I was playing Divinity 2 recently I kept thinking back to playing geneforge (and the other spiderweb RPGs) on a shitty little imac at the same time as I was playing diablo 2.
