...perfectly It's entirely possible for characters to hit hot streaks where every turn brings some random or semi-random occurrence that benefits them wildly and rockets their avatar up the scoreboard, but very rarely will you ever have the leading character be instantly felled by a single happening. A key complaint leveled at the Mario Party...

25-man raids and skill checks

2008-01-28 18:03:00 by Tobold in Tobold's MMORPG Blog
 
...perfectly. If everyone needs to play perfectly, a higher number of raiders makes encounters *more* difficult. Imagine everyone has to do something relatively easy, for which he would have a 90% success chance. Take 10 raiders in an encounter where only one has to make a mistake for the raid to wipe, and the chance of success drops to 0.9^10...

...perfectly, but you lose a lot of the formatting. One problem is that in sites with a menu on the left , the entire menu appears before the content, which means you have to scroll down a lot to start reading. Anyway, this mode is perfectly fine for reading blogs, for instance, but a forum (such as a phpBB one) is more complicated Overview mode...

Would mono-games be better than multi-games?

2008-04-24 13:44:00 by Tobold in Tobold's MMORPG Blog
 
...perfectly balanced for PvE, and is now underpowered. Abilities and item stats like aggro management end up being useless in solo and PvP play. Gear progression from PvE doesn't mix very well with PvP, which is supposed to be more skill-based. Meanwhile making all these huge games becomes increasingly expensive. So why not make games that only...

...perfectly complement the game's look. The soundtrack really seals the deal by cementing the feel of the game -- rolling a giant ball around collecting a banana here and a penguin there just wouldn't be the same without the upbeat score Much like Ape Escape did way back in 1999, Katamari Damacy sports an innovative control scheme that sets...

...perfectly targeted, perfectly distributed, and perfectly written can succeed in the marketplace. (I still think that a game-oriented ripoff of Make , where the print mag is only half the story, would work great.)

PQs and Open groups, best friends forever.

...perfectly together. If you dumped the PQ system in WoW, it would fail. Players would bicker about loot, everyone would be running around solo, avoiding death more than helping out, and it would generally be a mess. If you just dumped the open group system in WoW, it would go unused. Questing is faster in WoW solo, and groups are really only...
