Under that philosophy people should have stopped trying to make sci-fi movies after Star Wars? Or stop making Fantasy movies after Excalibur?
People rarely remember who does things first, but everyone remembers who does it best don't they? |
Curt you don't even have one AAA title under your gaming company,and you want to jump into the hardest genre in gaming history. Even Lucas put out THX and American graffiti before starwars....( see wut I did thar)
You need an IP to even compete,and all the popular IP's are gone now and failed..,or will fail in the future (Aoc,War)
Everquest was a total fluke. It just came at the right time. I wouldn't think about putting a MMO out until the veil of WoW has been lifted. Its cool to try new things ,but you need to have a workable plan..
If it was me I would at least try out the regular game market first and then build up to something like MMO.
Just remember all the PR in the world will not save you from this board, if your game is in beta and even hints of sucking this board will tear you a new asshole ( have we forgotten Vanguard??)
