Quickly, you haven’t much time.
Which game, after a four hour patch, did I have to drop my resolution down from 1680×1050 to 1240×782 to play at an acceptable frame rate, dropped me through the world, attacked me with monsters I couldn’t attack back because the game said I couldn’t see it when it was right in front of me, have doors that only become visible once I get real close, and rebooted my system for me while I was talking to an NPC?
You have five seconds. Hint: What do you call a multiplayer game you play alone?
Stumped?
I doubt it.
But I don’t want to rant about this game, yet. Too many people have. I want to seek out the good things.
First impressions aren’t good, though.
Diplomacy for the win, but still reminds me of Oblivion’s.

I was gonna guess Vanguard.. .. but then you go and give away the answer in your tag.. 😛
Didn’t notice the tag before I came up with my guess, but “MMO” and “diplomacy” screams Vanguard.
I wanted to like Vanguard, I really did. But after the last month I swore I wouldn’t waste another $15 on what could have been EQ or EQ2, hell even SWG. I love the world of Vanguard, I love the lore and I love the races. Its so rare to see a game that tries to expand the norm and (yes, my favorite word) innovate in the mmo market. I want to like Vanguard, but its a broken game. Makes me wanna cry.
Well, VG is free for me since I have Station Pass on my main account, but I can’t see it becoming my main game.
Without the tag or the mention of diplomacy, though, I could have been talking about EQ1 and probably many other games. You could get away with that once. People expected they would be beta testing a game for its first few months live, and nobody liked it, but it was expected. WoW changed that. It’s this change in attitude that hurt Vanguard the most.
