Caltrops - MMORPG Level Treadmill





	[quote name="Motherhead"][quote name="Debaser"]Is it magical? That's what I'm asking. I read the part where you said it was fun, but I didn't read the part where you said what about it was fun or why someone might like it. I doesn't help me for you to spread your arms apart and tell me "I like it thiiiiiiiiiiiiis much." because I have no clue if your tastes are the same as mine or objectively awful or what. So I'm terribly sorry if I offended you by not taking your "It's great. 'Cause." at face value and plunking down my 50 bucks for a game in a genre that's fallen on its ass out of the gate every single fucking time.[/quote] look, you asked me this: [quote name="Debaser"] Because I heard a lot of the same things about CoH being just intangibly better than its peers, and I turned out being wholly uninterested in that after about a week. Is this somehow magically better than that even (i.e., any good at all)?[/quote] so i said this: [quote name="I"]I didn't play CoH, so yes it magically better than that. I used the word fun several times, I thought I expressed clearly that I think it is that. (Fun.) It's better (magically?) than any single player RPG currently on store shelves.[/quote] Now I don't to further jeopardize my status as <i>reliable reviewer</i> so I will be more clear. Is it any good at all (you asked?) Yes, yes it is. Now I will expound in a way to let you gauge how far my arms are extended: I believe that their is not a single-player RPG currently available that will give you a more satisfying and rich playing experience than this non-single player (MMO) RPG will. It's that fucking well done. Bonus: This game (for the first 16 levels at least, as far as I have taken any character) is easy to solo with. So you can be as misanthropic as you like and ignore everyone else, which is what many others are also doing. Playing with people you know makes the experience more compelling (a word I used to substitute for Fun, which is non-quantifiable and causes ill will). You play with other, previously unknown, players only if your social toolkit provides you the ability to do so, but is not a necessity (at all since i tend to ignore the fuck out most people). PvP is available on some servers so the opportunity to be a cock is provided should you choose. [/quote]
