MMO Weakly #51: Canadian Pride Month:
- Weird News: Gamestop as the next potential victim of nancy states vs. Xbox’s being paid for with babies. Yes you read that right.
- Playing/Not Playing: Raim warms up his gaming engine with some WoW chit chat and Champions Online (Adawg’s peer pressure works!) Sarc caves to Wizard101’s payment model, played some WoW, wants to know how far Raim is in Torchlight and also caved into the Champions peer pressure! Not Played, though we didn’t mention it, is Starcraft! Releasing before the next show!
- Show Meat: Did you like the new sound effect for Show Meat? Well even if you didn’t, we discuss Fallen Earth, the first baseball funded video game, League of Legends nearly official promotion to an MMO, Aion’s new content, and Global Agenda’s Phase 2! Show Discussion is Marvel vs. DC, which Raim has strong opinions about.

You shouldn’t make comments or speculations on games you havn’t played. Doing so you could be deturing people from actually giving the game a try. I have listened to your episodes from start to finish and I am pretty impressed with the show it is fun. I have recently returned to fallen earth myself and the game has been improved alot, I am only in my 20’s right now but I must say leveling from 1-20 there are alot more people in the game now then I remember when I first gave it a go. I am re-hooked on the game, the gameplay is great and the community of the game has to be the best community I have seen in along time.
The last couple of patches released by the devs have been pretty amazing. The latest patch is pretty cool as they have added the ability to paint your vehicles and it is pretty amazing, gives you the change to customize your vehicle a bit so it doesn’t look like everyone elses. Anyways stop harping on Fallen Earth, give it a shot and I am sure you guys will love it to. Also there is nothing wrong with being Canadian either.
Also I have 2 votes for ya. Keep show meat, and yes you should go live, as I think it would be much more enertaining and allow the listeners to contribute as well.
Thanks and keep up the good work.

I’ve recently given Fallen Earth another try myself with their 14 day trial. I have found the changes they’ve made over the last few patches have genuinely made the game run a lot more smoothly on my system and the last patch is fantastic. I just wish they’d add more color to the game. The buildings, ground, mountains, roads … just about every stinking thing in the game is the same “crap” brown. They could do a lot better by adding some color in the different elements of the game.
So yea … give FE a break! LOL Now if they’d just post that damned severed head I sent them ……..

Hey Simple – sorry that it seemed like we were bashing FE – that wasn’t the intent. I went back to listen to what we said (I sometimes forget these things), we didn’t bash the game- neither of us have really played it, just noted the number of players was not great. But I see your point, and would like to mention here that the number of subscriptions to a game and the quality of the game are not necessarily linked! If they were then Farmville would be the greatest game of all time. Secondly I don’t want to give the impression that you shouldn’t try a game just because there aren’t legions of other players, you might miss some great stuff. To repair this wrong Sarc has agreed to buy FE and play it for a period of time no less than a month so he can do a real review of it! Hurray Sarc.

lol, awesome thanks guys. I know you weren’t really bashing the game but sometimes alot of people go by subscriptions totals when deciding to play a game which sucks. Honestly who wants to play a game were the chances of you running into someone else is rare. I think the total number of people playing fallen earth over the last couple of weeks has greatly increased.
Thanks for taking the time to reply, you guys rock and I hope Sarc enjoys Fallen Earth, if he likes shooting things in the head then I am sure he will.

…………… Knowing Raim as well as i do, i can imagine the exact inflection and tone he would have delivered that last sentence with.
