Straw Fellow's Field: Worst Case Scenario: SWTOR Goes F2P
http://strawfellow.blogspot.com/2012/07/worst-case-scenario-swtor-goes-f2p.html
A small spot for me to talk about MMORPG's, among other things. Wednesday, July 18, 2012. Worst Case Scenario: SWTOR Goes F2P. Apologies for the delay in posting, I've had some silly fiascos involving a broken down car. Oh, and they are adding a companion based off of HK-47. Didn't know that? The Devs know that you don't. And they are trying to get attention back to their game. Why is it bad though? This -will- make companies hesitate before spending money on MMORPG's. You may think that this would m...

Straw Fellow's Field: Worst Case Scenario - Gambling with Games
http://strawfellow.blogspot.com/2012/07/worst-case-scenario-gambling-with-games.html
A small spot for me to talk about MMORPG's, among other things. Wednesday, July 25, 2012. Worst Case Scenario - Gambling with Games. I found myself wondering how this sort of marketing could be brought to true online gaming (Skylanders has an online version, just not a fully fledged online world) and my thoughts drifted to other miniature based games.and then found myself mortified at the possibilities. How does this relate to Skylanders, you ask? Multiply that into an entire game and you have an untappe...

Straw Fellow's Field: Turning Lies into Marketing
http://strawfellow.blogspot.com/2012/08/turning-lies-into-marketing.html
A small spot for me to talk about MMORPG's, among other things. Thursday, August 30, 2012. Turning Lies into Marketing. I titled this post "Turning Lies into Marketing" because I felt that companies always lie about going F2P, due to the stigma it attaches to their game. From what I understand, Secret World is an exception to this as Funcom is not shy about saying they might do it, but for the most part companies are ashamed of it. I say, why lie to your playerbase?

A small spot for me to talk about MMORPG's, among other things. Thursday, September 6, 2012. Features All MMO's Should Have - Sidekicking from City of Heroes. Before I begin, I'd like to say I whole-hardheartedly support the groups trying to save City of Heroes. I don't know if they can do it, and I'm not keeping my hopes up, but this would lift the spirits of many of the people who are down because of the game closing. I truly feel like we aren't losing a game, we are losing a home. These past five year...

A small spot for me to talk about MMORPG's, among other things. Thursday, May 31, 2012. Mini-Post - Diablo 3 and Non-Standard Fantasy. This is more gushing than it is analysis, but I thought I'd share. They represent humanity. They are selfish and concerned with their own world and well-being, and it works. Diablo 3 isn't about saving the world to fulfill some higher purpose. It's about killing demons because F#$% demons. Monday, May 28, 2012. In Defense of Blizzard - Real Money Auction House.

Cool Story, Sis. Saturday, December 31, 2011. Going Out With a Bang. Funny little sentence that one. Confortingly ambiguous. I wasn't refering to dying in a glorified and overly dramatic way (although similar thoughts pass through my mind at times), I was actually refering to the mere ending of the year. And what an ending this was. An ending of many things, things ending much more unexpectedly than a year. May 2012 spare the world so it might end a bit better than 2011. Posted by Sara Baptista. I'm not ...

Cool Story, Sis. Monday, February 27, 2012. Wrath of Heroes: In Need of a Gentleman Caller. Hmmm, yes I know how that sounds. While I wait for further developments on several fronts, I've occupied some weekends playing the closed beta of BioWare Mythic's WAR inspired F2P, Wrath of Heroes. Or maybe ask me for it. But this is not what I'm here for right now. It's dangerous to go alone. Take this! The Skaven Hero has a Perk in his tree that allows him to turn into a Rat Ogre after a 13 assist streak. As...

Cool Story, Sis. Monday, May 14, 2012. I just woke up in a very good mood today. Posted by Sara Baptista. Location: Campo Pequeno, Lisboa, Portugal. Monday, May 7, 2012. As It Is In Life, So Shall It Be In Mass Effect. Funny things happen when one falls in love, both physically and mentally. Let's not go into the physical however. No, let's not. We could be here all day. First take this into account. During the first two installments of the saga I always felt like the situation was dire but Shepard was r...

Cool Story, Sis. Thursday, June 30, 2011. Lots of wasted potential here. Or maybe I'm wrong? 65279;However entertaining this notion might be, mankind soon realised there is strength in numbers and that was that, really. It only makes sense that, in virtual wars people try to stick together to battle it out in numbers towards the win. I was bored one day so I started scribbling down some ideas on how to make Guilds in WAR more interesting and relevant. 65279; Standard Bearers. 65279;. 65279;&#...
