Klaus:

Why Shadowbane didn’t make billions:

I am a little tired of people referring to Shadowbane’s lack of commercial success, and using it as an argument for why games with a heavy focus on PvP won’t work, so I am gonna make a brief statement:

STFU!

Shadowbane was a great concept and a great game, and the only reason it wasn’t a massive success, was buggy and outdated technology.

If Shadowbane had released without all the client crashes, with a better server solution and with a graphical engine that could compete with other games released at the time, it would have been a HUGE hit.

And on that note - they are wiping all the Shadowbane servers and all the characters, and re-releasing two new servers in the very near future. It’s free, and I am gonna go play it with some friends, to hopefully re-experience some of that magic a fresh Shadowbane server brings - for probably the last time.

Let the ganking and smack talking commence!

Is anyone else bothered by the WoW/MMO gaming culture? The attitudes I’ve encountered since January 2005 have amazed me at how…wrong a person can act. I don’t want to subject you folks to a lengthy rant so I’ll make it brief with some examples.
