To those who think Wyvern isn't trying.
Posted: March 27th, 2005, 3:29 pm
I have seen many posts talking about Wyvern not doing much when it comes to World of Warcraft and wanted to leave my opinion.
Wyvern has said before that his WoW service and other cool things he has up his sleeve would be out before now, but it isn't. We do pay for this service and I know that it seems like we are getting nothing new for WoW.
In Wyvern's defense, though, think of it like this. Have you ever played an MMORPG with one GM? One. Single. That would be very difficult as you can imagine. Now imagine Wyvern is that one GM, listening to requests from thousands of people. He is only one person, yet everyone thinks that he can do hundreds of things at once just because we are paying money. I think we should all step back and realize that if Wyvern could do everything we wanted instantly, you know he would. And if he could do it without charging for his services, you know he would. If he didn't care about us, this whole XU project and his continued loyalty to it would cease to exist.
I will be the first to admit, I am not a coder whatsoever. While many of you out there are, a lot of us aren't. I'm not aware of how Wyvern's work is done, but if other coders could help him out why not offer to help rather than putting him down for only being one person? Like I said, I'm not a coder and not even sure if it's possible for people to help him coding wise. I do know, however, that we can ALL help, coders or not, by giving him some slack. We all know what happens when game companies put out games just to meet demand before they are properly finished. If you need an example, try playing Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II on the XBOX. Obsidian, the publisher, did just that. The result speaks for itself.
Wyvern doesn't know me, nor I him before I came to this site, this is just the opinion from someone who would like to see this community come together rather than divide itself.
