I don't think we will see much new mmorpg for a while.
the economy has been in the hole for years now, yet koreans still drop their shitty games on us.
OMG, completely agree, even though I'm 14 and don't have to worry about it, I have to graduate top of my class just so I can go to college because my parent's can't afford it.
Riiiiiight.
What job are you going to get even when you get out of college. I doubt the people will have money to pay for scholarships anymore.Quote:

I just played like 3 closed beta games coming out and signed up for 2.
Yup, there's absolutely no games coming out.
If it was, would MMORPG's seriously be something you find worthy making a topic about?
Heh. You should study economics.Quote:

Its simple, actually.
Business overall is down.
No affect on MMOs.
If a recession never happened guess what, the economy would collapse. Recessions <-> Inflation. They balance each other out, if prices get too high (inflation) a recession tends to occur to correct this. When the recession has gotten bad enough, prices inflate again. Its a never ending chain, dunno why people are like ZOMG THE ECONOMY IS DYING! Its a natural cycle.
your statement would make a good false MC choiceQuote:

THE WORLD IS GONNA END!!!!!!! WITH YOU!!!!! NUH NUH NUH NUH NUH NUH NUH NUH DUFFMAN!!!! in 2012! anyways!
I hope you guys know we cant go into a depression. Canada, Mexico, then the UK, and other European country's will give us money not to, cause if we go into depression we **** up there economy too. Besides MMO's can help the economy if the make more jobs right? so that helps no?

We use paper and its all messed up, we print more than we have. but if its more equal the more money we get to keep cause its worth.
a million $ worth will fluctuate, in a good economy it would be worth a million $ but that doesn't happen anywhere.
thats basically economy 101 right there.
all in all, MMO's help the economy alot cause rich people create jobs, jobs stimulate the economy and may not fix it... but certainly will help it.
most other countries hate the US, so yeah i don't see them giving us any cash anytime soon, not to mention the fact we OWE people money as it is.
They can hate the US all they want, again i say, the world will go to SHIT if we go into a depression, look at the 30's, they are not going to let it happen again, we are a power in the world if we fall it all goes with us.Quote:

if the us falls, the whole world will not just stop, look at Rome it was a power and it fell quite easily with no significant lose of anything.
Persia was also a power, and its gone now, same thing as rome.
but maybe i'm just looking to far into this.
Although, when we fell into the great depression it caused alot, if not most, other major countries (China, Great Britain, etc) into a depression also. So our economy does indeed have a significant effect on the world.
I heard the world's economy is really bad right now.
So how would free mmos budget?
if it happens again i think they would hoard the money as to not feel the worst effect of it.
Espada is to be taken with a grain of salt and so is Negrac. They are general section idiots who were let out of their cages. Carry on.
FPS-RPG. ??Quote:

it depends on ones view of communism, if its Stalin's view then hell no, if Lenin's then yeah it could work.
According to my sources america has a communist party.
Communism is the best form of government that doesn't work. If people weren't lazy and would actually do what they are supposed in a communistic society, everybody would be perfectly happy and all would be equal, but you know that people wouldn't be able to resist this mentality; "They pay me $XXX for doing great work, they pay me the exact same for doing crap work or no work at all, I just won't work." This in turn cause everybody else to stop working because it then becomes unfair (which is key to communism, fairness) and this causes the economy and government to collapse.
I myself am i Leninst, Could work? No it will work.Quote:

Communism fails because it doesn't take human error into consideration. Perfect on paper, terrible in practice.Quote:

This is what makes communism impossible.
Like I said before, somebody realizes that even if he/she doesn't do their work, they will still get paid because everybody gets the same wages and everything. This cause somebody else to stop working, and so on and so forth.
It could look like this only when you live in us or another far country, they both were same, what they did was basically stealing expensive things from rich and keeping for "nation" , but nation (and treasury ofc) was controlled by our big good brother lenin/stalin, for ordinary people like us it was same crap as monarchy.Quote:

It isn't the economy is the fact that the shitty developers realized that their games are shit and do not pull in revenue.
We are having a debate not a argument so stop being so angry.Quote:

Communist- as people said, great concept but when you lose your creativity, what is the point, a doctor works a million times as hard and gets paid the same as a mail man. Inventors dont get anything for making anything so why try?
you pull the game and a bunch of people lose there jobs, even worse.Quote:
