    Ah, I see were I got lost. I was under the impression that game companies had a strong interest in making money, with the games simply being the vehicle. If We use the assumption that their actual primary goal is to make the best possible game, than some comments make more sense.

    Problem is, one can't eat a game and, for most, life has to many other options to dedicate it exclusively to making games. Things like attracting a spouse, raising a family, seeing the world outside one's tool shed, etc.. I wont even get into the fact that while good game designers may not be all that rare and people willing to live in tool sheds may also not be all that rare, good game designers willing live in tool sheds most likely are pretty rare. So we are stuck with either paying our designers a competitive salary or constantly having to tell our designers to put away the crack pipe and bang out some uber code.

    First, I'll apologize for the tone of my previous post. I didn't realize there was a language barrier.
    Second, I still fail to understand what business economics has to do with a complaint about a self-healing mini-boss with non-standard DR that has been in game since the level cap was 16. My best guess is, from reading a followup post of yours, that it has to do with them making a game that appeals to the masses and not making a good game and that the OP was a symptom of this. However its just a guess.

    Third,

    And using a business example is a poor example; there are a ton of different business deals and trying to simplistically us that as a position is a "scare crow tactic" of course most of your "how do you say" gibberish has been scare crow tactics...

    My post are my post, I am not a FAN BOY I say what I like and if you have to go and look at my other post to me it means that you are "shaken in your wordz."

    The only thing I see that you are trying to do is...... gather every one on your side and get me to be quite so you can say you have won the word battle .... lol...

    So here it is you prize you have won.... the word battle is yourz.....

    I chose this word battle because I thought it would be fun but now you running out of steam and just using random euphemism's for unrelated points ....

    Basically bashing to compete ... I prefer intellectual conversation or every once and a while a word battle but now it has become



    WEAK ... You win!!!
    Sorry dude, have read thro ur posts and looked at your piccies a few more times now.. but hey you know what I am more confused than ever. All I hope is that when you go back to your Fortune 500 day job you actually learn to speak factuallly, without deviations or going off on some very obscure tangents... cos seriously I am at a loss to find anything remotely intellectual in anything you have posted so far.

    Still maybe the green pills will work better for you

    I was in a similar situation once, me on my bard with no weapons to bypass the DR, a guildie on his new monk without anything either. My wand of magic missile ran out while he was about a third down, and the monk was tinking away for about the same damage as you. I kept digging through my backpack trying to find something to speed things up, when I ran across an old Xyzzy cookie I think it took out about half of his health and sped up the fight considerably.

    No wonder you all dont have complaints and cant understand what I am saying...

    Wow... defend it defend it to your last keyboard punch.... I dont mind maybe some of the people have never played a better game... or just want people to shut up and ride the bumps of the game...

    But no worries I wont be bothering you I haven't played the game since I have posted here....

    And that is how most gamez loose their people I have been watching it over years a certain type of group of people form that pushes others away with their traditions and the way they play and all their fwahahahah fwahahah ... all the while not noticing that their game is dying slowly... just as no one see's a plant growing continuously with their eyes.

    Sometimes it is called guildies unite and attack one person that I cant handle a conversation with; or I dont know how to deal with his points.
    But one way or the other I dont have time to explain "economics and making money while not fully satisfying the customer so the customer begs for things;take a look at a lot of the threads, there is a lot of asking and questioning going on."

    If the game was perfect you all wouldn't be here defending it ... lol



    Ohhh and considering that you all dont understand what I was saying "on with the show" meant the conversation is over....
    can i buy some pot from you?

    edit: i also could have gone with: "no you cant haz cheezburger."

    Default My two cents.

    Alright, I think his point is that dps shouldn't be the sole important thing in those situations. Yeah, dps is nice, but in situations like these, every other good aspect is overlooked. The sp idea would be great, because if you can last long enough to wittle an sp bar down like that, you deserve to get a quest completion.

    Lol, perhaps I am too romantic or read too many fantasy novels.
    Nevertheless, I still find wielding a weapon awarded for a heroic, unselfish deed more satisfying than farming to craft one. Though I don't mind peeps having fun crafting uber items, devs might feel forced to deliver content still challenging for owners of uber gear. Prob is, offering tough quests for those who achieved green steel + dragon touched armor, which still can be played (and ofc enjoyed) by experienced casuals.
    Seems to be a challenging split for game devs. Some examples described here sound like losing balance while dancing on the bar.
    Anyway, I just hope that all future content can be handled with equipment players with little time can achieve by questing.
    Imo special dps/gear as a "must be" should be reserved for epic difficulty. (Though I don't mean totally gimped toons should be able to make a walk through)
