[...] you hide in your irrelevant niche with the broken shell of your dream game, complaining about the Big Mac-eating, Usher-listening mainstream. Because everyone ships late with bugs and missing features, so STFU and accept [...]

“so all those guys who stuck with EVE must be real ‘tards, right?”

Not sure what the connection is between EVE, a game which has slowly but steadily attracted more and more and more players continuously over it’s entire lifespan (which is quite a long time now); and WAR, a game which hyped a lot of hype and shifted a lot of boxes and then saw 75-90% (depending on whose numbers you believe) of the buyers ditch it almost immediately because they simply didn’t like it.

@Jeff I don't play WoW, never got beyond level 16 or so. Didn't like the graphical style (my bad taste), but if I'd play I'd be Horde I think.

It is not me who named himself EpicSquirt and his homepage Crymore. I did not think that you are such a reasonable and sensitive person after taking a shit on alchemda, ymrar and Einherjer.

So please, feel free to explain your epic entry #36.

Edit: Actually, there is nothing to explain… you have utterly disqualified yourself. Not really looking forward to more incredible comments like that.

@Longasc Try to discuss the actual matter instead of resorting to such comments.

@Einherjer
EVE has a continuous growth from the beginning, it was a game worth playing from the beginning. I played it from beta 2003 till 2005 daily for several hours and still resubscribe from time to time.

Not sure what kind of analogy you’re trying to draw here. There is none to draw, in no aspect. EVE didn’t lose 3/4 of its player base short after launch and both games are very different in idea and implementation.

If you think that the fans stuck with Warhammer Online will manage to rebuild the game with Mythic’s help, you’re mistaken – there is even more competition on the horizon, some even with GW’s IP. The people who stuck with EVE had epic PvP from the beginning, corps and alliances have raised and fallen from day 1, there was something worth to fight over and there were many means to do it, where Warhammer had and still has Scenarios of Lag and City Sieges of Bugs.

I’m sure that sadomasochism is a form of love too.
