The Death Of Blogging

When does a blog cease being interesting and merely becomes a portal for angry bloggers disillusioned with their favorite gaming genre? Maybe it is time to move on and try something else? The mass outpouring of hatred for SWTOR around the blogosphere is breathtaking.

In other news my SWTOR guild has just completed Eternity Vault. Our guild of 200+ people is still going strong and 80% of them have decided to subscribe and gain the Founder title. People are engaged and looking forward to logging in each day. Funny that!

It's not a crime to cancel WoW

There has been a lot of press recently in the blogosphere about people being unhappy with WoW and the latest Cataclysm expansion. Blogs are filled with thousand word rants by players who are unhappy with raids, grouping, archaeology, reputation, iLevel gear requirements, other WoW players, and the WoW developers.

Did it ever occur to these people they may simply be burned out on the game? Quite a few of these unhappy players have been playing since WoW was launched. That's Nov 2004. A long period to be playing the same computer game now heading into it's seventh year of operations.

Cancel the game and try something different. There are other great MMO's out there with excellent communities and great gameplay. Take your WoW blinkers off and move on to something else!
