When I was working as a massage therapist I had someone ask me about meridians and thanks to Age of Wushu I was able to speak authoritatively on the subject. Was I right in what I said? I'll never know.

They keep reiterating a Steam buy2play release this year with a focus on selling expansion packs so I'm starting to believe them. Dark & Light's website should go up by the end of the month with beta signups in the near future. Age of Wushu 2 soft launch early next year.

Why shouldn't I be hyped up for a snail sandbox where they're addressing the one complaint I had with their game (the poo poo business model)? Even if they pull another Age of Wushu/Black Desert, I'm getting a couple months of fun.

Having played the original Dark and Light I feel as if you're setting your expectations a little bit too high.

Very distracted. But the people I met doing a CS major aren't really pertinent to chinagames.

Alex here isn't pumped for the sandbox mmo I'm most sunk-cost into though, which might be a good sign for it.

I followed the original DnL, it was bad but the trailer of this one looks good. I figure since they're releasing 3 sandbox games in 2 years, they'll share tech/mechanics, meaning DnL is Age of Wushu 2 in fantasy dragon land.

Their popularity is on the decline, too. Everybody who tried to cash in is crashing and burning on release now. If it's not DOTA or LOL nobody cares.

But then Battleborn was just bad on every level.

I know, and they've got so many inherent problems other games don't have. It's the same map over and over and once you're in, you're committed to the entire match unless you're willing to have it marked against you and performance is heavily influenced by whether a player disconnects.

Anyone with a basic sense of business could tell the market had a horribly low saturation point. DOTA 2 only survived because it managed to pull fans of the original Warcraft 3 map away from LOL. Smite gets by because it's just different enough to draw in people who want something different in a MOBA.

You know that feeling when you start a new session of your favorite strategy/puzzle game ? The "This time i will get it JUST RIGHT" feeling ? I think thats the itch MOBAS scratch. Every new game is a chance to get it "JUST RIGHT" and if you fail you can always blame your other team members for feeding.

Studios like it because it need very little effort to produce (no story, no mission script, no voice over, all you need is 4 maps and 2 game modes) and the return if you tap an unknow spergwhale vein is very lucrative.

It didn't just get removed it got like completely wiped. They pulled all of the graphics and changed the name. I've never seen that before.

Well, I went to Chengdu for team practice and dueled some people nearby. Turns out, GoonTangClan is apparently some sort of mythic entity from the dark ages and I got a bunch of "Holy poo poo welcome back" PMs. From former TDH members.
