Washington Post on Star Wars Galaxies Changes
spartan7891 writes "The Washington Post, by way of MSNBC, is running a story on how fans are outraged at the newest changes made to Star Wars Galaxies. As one player states, 'The game for me probably will be a lost love. Sort of like seeing your spouse with Alzheimer's. Outwardly, everything appears the same as it always has, but you know that beneath the surface, things will never be the same.' There's even rumors of LucasArts being so angry about the changes that they may cancel SOE's contract." Yeah ... if a major newspaper covers what you did in a patch, you probably did something wrong.
ILM, Lucas Arts = Downtrodden farm boy launched into space trying to change the universal views of perception. SOE = Stoic Empire that squashes all rebellious intent and free thinking schemes with an iron fist. Someone please tell me who the Cast and Characters are I know we can do a spoof for George
yeah, cause gamers are famous for their ability to place things in the proper perspective.
Thought the same thing. Not only is this a harsh blow to SOE, but its a harsh blow to the casual gamer who will be associated with someone who'd make such a moronic statement like that.
Good quote, too many chars. Seriously, the slashdot 120 char limit sucks!
Did anyone feel a disturbance in the Force? As if thousands of players cried out in pain as their character's jobs were deleted?
In other news today thousands of geeks were seen standing outside their parent's houses blinking at the sunglight for the first time in months.
That makes me laugh. You are playing less video games, but that's ok because it lets you get back into TV.
F U N N Y
TV watching is highly addictive. If you don't believe me try quitting for a year.
"I can quit any time I want, I just don't want to"
Don't forget to put the cover sheet on your TPS reports BEFORE they go out.
