Funcom and Eidos must have thought, 'Let's take WOW, add more boobies and blood and we'll have an awesome game'. Too bad they didn't put in more work.
The irony of Yahtzee bashing a game on a page it has sponsored was pretty sweet though.

Good review with valid gameplay complaints (gear is pretty pointless and the community is composed entirely of XBox Live man-children). I'm curious to know why the intro/outro changed for Yahtzee's videos though. The custom song clips were a lot better than this one-size-fits-all guitar riff that bludgeons me over the head with the fact that I'm on the Escapist Magazine's website.
wow that was quite lame. Not one complaint about about performance crashes or bugs?
Well first 20 levels are pretty good as everyone knows, necromancer is easy mode. If he tried Assassin then he'd see how horrable the game/class can be. Try "Sneaking" around when you get spotted by every mob and its uncle oh wait it works better at night..ill log back in 2 hours while i go bash my head against a brick wall..
Nice how the site that this video is on has huge AoC adverts on it, i mean hes hardly gonna tear it to bits when the site he works for is getting paid to advertise the game. I think thats the worst review ive seen this guy do and normally he is spot on.

What did you expect? I am sure you have bitched about it already it isn't going to change because you said that. God forbid you make a real comment about the actual video you know things you liked, what you didn't like. No! There was a thirty second change at the start of the video!Cpt. Eduardo del Mango said:

Not even tits can save a bad MMO...
Also, am I the ONLY one who doesn't mind the new opening/ending?

I am sorry Yahtzee but you havent got any impressions about the real problems this games has.
It's fine that you only did the first 30 levels but dont try to make a review out of it:
real problems are:
1.feat-system totally mysterious and inexplicable
2.questing-content gets real thin after 50
3.communication is difficult, cause the chat has some issues
4.some classes are still totally overpowered and i dont mean just a little better, like the warlock was in WoW, but really just better because they have better spells
5.alot of issues with ping
6.crafting takes up too much time to spend on
7. trevelling takes up an ernormous amount of time
and many more but these are the ones i can think of everyone in my guild complained about at one point
but if you love a fighting game with alot of action and love to kill some fuckers with your friends, then pick a melee class and enjoy aoc
so long
edit:
nice touch with the name of your pets
but seriously:
picking on a mmorpg because it tells you your special?
every fucking rpg since the beginning of the genre did that
yes, it's fucking annoying but you cant help it
and seriously if you don't want to get your "tits chopped off" choose a fucking PvE-server
nobody makes you fight...
and also you seem to know the problem that mmorpgs turn your friends into zombies but you seem to have abandoned them cause you found no-one to play with
try the game because it's multiplayer
it is not a sologame and this is why the patching and so on is so much more difficult
i would seriously reccomend you having another attempt at summarising this game

A fantastic video that made me laugh through it all.
oh, and it had some nice game reviewy stuff in there too...

Nothing less then what I'd expect from Yahtzee, but I couldn't help but notice that you seem to have gone a little easy on this game, ESPECIALLY when it doesn't deserve mercy, and instead an intellectual tongue lashing. (Wonders if it has anything to do with AoC banners.....)
Good work as always

Nah. You aren't annoying enough. Why don't you read the rules and try violating them? Then you'll get what you want.Crazyshrink said:

Or, you could just, not be like all the others who have to have the latest ZP ASAP. I never have any lag problems, because I always wait at least till Thursday. If more would wait, there wouldn't be a problem.Tumbler360 said:

Well, that was fun. I got to comment on three posts today. I guess it makes up for me being silent last week. Now on to the stuff about the review:
Funny as usual, and much better than last week's. Now that the songs are gone, the funniest thing for me to do is to try and find the word you intentionally (I hope) mispronounce.
mythos should be pronounced like myth
I actualy liked this one, it more (or atleast nearly) an actual review then a rant, and being a AoC player i think Yahtzee was dead on in most of what he said; its true that the game is still unfinished, that its trying its best to be WoW and that the classes are unbalanced due to Funcom going over the top in numbers (though on a side note necros are damn powerful).
Ofcourse there are some things i find abit odd, like him picking a magic class when he obviously didnt want to bother with all the spell managing BS, and him picking a PvP server then being surprised that he was getting PK'ed. I hope the next one is as long and in-depht as this one.
Oh and, alittle nit-pic; Old Snakes Solid-Eye was on the wrong side.
