Eh. VG is much less buggy than it was at release (yeah it really needed three months like we all said back in Jan) as to the whether VG inspires people -- VG is far from perfect but I certainly won't be playing anything else for the foreseeable future so AFAIK the shit is right -- or at least more right than anything else out there or coming out. VG may not be your cup of tea but it certainly is mine and I'd guess the other people who play and have resubbed. The worst thing that could happen to VG is that they add all the shit in that everyone insists it needs. It should remain a non-instanced, group-centric, difficult game.

Reality is that even if Brad puts in all things you guys say you want you're still not going to play the game (and I'll always credit THK for his honesty with respect to this as he actually came out and said so months ago) so he should concentrate on making his current base happy (a bird in the hand and etc) not catering to people who don't actually -- and aren't ever going to -- play the game.

SWG is the shining example of what happens when you ignore the preferences of your player base and make changes they hate in an effort to broaden your base.
