I've been looking at Guild Wars a lot lately, but as Mith said, it just doesn't seem like a company can make a profit with their scheme. Either they're not going to provide the super-magico-fantastic support and updates they're promising, or there WILL be a monthly fee.
I would love for there to be a clear winner game that we can all get into here. But I'm not seeing it. I'll borrow from something Lemming said recently that all the games out now or in the recent future are either:
1) great single player games only
2) good games but with crappy multiplayer
3) MMORPGs
The problem with a MMORPG on the Lounge is that there is little we can discover about it through code-digging. The element that posts here and enjoys doing this will be left out. Any gameplay discoveries and observations will have to come via extensive game testing, which unfortunately is not as accurate.
