People say bigger is better.

But for the first time in my life, I think I've gone too far.
Everyone who cared already switched to the EU servers, anyway.

Was this the game that I saw banner adds for like 2 years ago with Lita Ford in a metal bikini riding a dude riding a dragon?

I thought this was the sequel to Dragon's Dogma and wondered why it was in the MMOG forum. Shows how little I know about Dragon's Dogma. Or Dragon's Prophet.

The only novel thing about it was catching dragons like Pokémon.

Safe and sound, detached from reality.
Just like your posting.
I picked it up a while ago and played on the EU servers. Then I bought a thing for it on Steam, didn't get it and support told me I'm poo poo out of luck since their Steam integration is barely there if that. gently caress this game.

I saw the title and thought it was yet another dead goon.

I am thankful it was not.

Simple, class action lawsuit. people spent money on this game and not offering a way to keep the stuff bought is basically ripping people off. I seen this coming a long time ago and just quit playing. You8 can claim that there's no ownership of in game items, but see how well that will hold up in court with hundreds, if not thousands in a class action lawsuit. You're not even making an effort, which is complete and utterly unacceptable considering the money you collected from players for this game. It doesn't matter how good EQN nor Landmark will be, I'll never play another SOE/Daybreak game again after dealing with the lack of customer service they give and how little they care for their players to pull something like this! I've said what I had to say and it is sad to find out I was right all along.

Just to give you some context, this is how pretty much everybody that plays a Daybreak Games Company game feels. Columbus Nova is milking every product dry until nothing comes out.

This could have been a Saturday morning cartoon. I haven't seen a trailer work so hard to make a game look like what it really isn't, and I played Watch Dogs.

I honestly can't tell if you're being honest or making a joke.

hold it now hold it now hold it right there

Is this the game where you had to go through a million load screens by Nexon? Or is this the one where you rode tauntauns

This game had a pretty cool concept, like Rappelz V.2, and it somehow hosed it up as much as possible

Okay, that's true. Good point, Marquess. Point for you. But you get a point taken away for being a dick. So, back to zero.

For real. Everything Is Dragons and You Are A Pokémon Master. Such a shame.
