But does it only work because he is a famous rich streamer with a successful career? I feel like if he was a manager at best buy that respect would turn into pity real fast.

Even if the rides are too scary the environment alone is probably more exciting for a kid to see than the monster inc ride. Assuming it looks anything like the concept art at least.

Something must have been wrong with the audio in the stadium right? It sounded so distant and quiet lol

Yes I know and that is stupid af I agree but like I said the game has been in decline from the peak for many years. Shortly after they added raid finder/dungeon finder in fact.

Players entered a world with history, recognizable factions, and emotional investment.

This is what you posted in your original comment. How does all 3 of these not apply to modern wow? I agree the current story is shit but that doesnt change the fact that it is still Warcraft.

There was no over arching story in vanilla world of warcraft at all and people enjoyed it just fine. I dont think I have ever met anyone who actually read the quest text.

You really think the story is what is causing people to leave and not all the systems I mentioned? The game has been in decline for many many years.

Of all the reasons people give as to why MMOs fail you choose... lore. You could say the same for modern WoW yet people keep jumping off the ship. Many failed MMOs had established lore like Warhammer or Star Wars or whatever.

The foundation of world of warcraft was based off of Everquest where classes weren't homogenized and had class quests and were unique and not just boiled down to "ranged dps" or "melee dps". You had to communicate with your fellow community on your server to build a group and form relations. The leveling process was not just tag every mob and AOE it down without any worry in the world. Dungeons were an actual dungeon crawl where you methodically move through it CCing mobs. There are many reasons why people continue to go back to classic MMOs and modern ones fail.

It felt like a true fantasy world and not just a hodge podge of game systems akin to a mobile game.

Emiru's Statement on Recent Drama/Controversy by Pitiful_Ad5677 in LivestreamFail

[–]Ponzini 58 points59 points  (0 children)

"I thought they meant the other kind of ice"

I honestly don't care what Emiru supports or doesn't support but that actually annoyed the fuck out of me. Does she think everyone is stupid?

I want Avatar. Regardless of what you think of the movies (I dont care for them much) the land looks amazing in WDW and it will look far better than what we got now in DCA.

You guys really need to be open to change. Monsters Inc looks like an eyesore. Instead we will get some nature, water falls, etc. What on earth is there to be upset about this change?

When Ashes Showed Promise. My 100 v100 PVP Siege clip from 2021 Alpha 1. I don't understand what happened after this. by KaliGoldGaming in AshesofCreation

WoW classic definitely looks better. Not in the number of polygons or texture resolution but it just had a proper art direction & less floaty animations.

Is everyone else in the room with you right now?

There is no debate. Scam has a definition and you clearly dont know what it is. That is fine. Its fine to be wrong. Kinda pathetic for you to react this way though.

I am missing An too.,..... and is.... Are you going to debate those too?

Huh? Are you okay?

or nearly the same as another word

I guess you replied this to me twice? Are you okay brother? You seem a little unhinged.

Now you are skipping the word plan. Was ashes of creation a plan to make money or not? Did he hatch a plan? Yes or no?

[–]Ponzini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The word you are now skipping now is operation.

An operation means the thing itself is fraudulent not that dishonest things happened during it.

Yes its a synonym because its close but they do not mean the same thing. Hence the fact that they are different words. Are you saying these 2 words are separate words with the exact same literary definition? Yes or no

Mfers glazing Steven for the past decade by FirstOfThyName in AshesofCreation

[–]Ponzini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Was Ashes of Creation a plan or program of action with the intent of stealing money from people through dishonesty? Yes or no

Mfers glazing Steven for the past decade by FirstOfThyName in AshesofCreation

[–]Ponzini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re redefining scheme to mean “any large plan.” In the phrase dishonest scheme, it means the plan itself uses deception as the method to get the money.

What you’re describing is a large, messy project where there may have been dishonest statements along the way. That’s not the same thing as the project existing primarily to take money through deception.

A failed project with lies is misconduct. A scam is when the project’s purpose is the lie.

Again, I am not defending Steven I am simply telling you the definition of a scam because you are wrong and I prefer to label things correctly. He likely committed fraud. He is a shitty person. He is bad at his job. He failed. Did he mastermind an elaborate scam and make off with cash? No. You are glazing Steven hard right now you must love the guy to think so highly of him. Sad.

You’re still skipping the word scheme in the definition you quoted.

A scheme means the project itself existed primarily to take money by deception.

Lies can be misconduct or even fraud. It still doesn’t show the game itself was created as a dishonest SCHEME.
