Why does SF look like KoS?

You have bad taste, or you're not a raider.

What would you say, EoF?

Hahaha, I thought of adding that I'm not a raider but figured you may have other reasons.

How many times did you edit that? Couldn't get it fast enough to grab the 3p line and a timestamp never appeared.

I don't like being confined to small overland land masses. To me it felt very restrictive and not very massively multiplayer. Ultimately to me it signaled the fact that they had not put a lot of energy into designing the overland zones which were tiny and riddled with re-used graphics from Lavastorm.

Raiding wise, the trash with 10 billion hit points, the DT fiasco, etc. etc. The only positive I can recall were the 3 contested; Hurr/3P/MO and since it's obvious their focus is no longer on contested content I doubt that will be SF's saving grace.

So yes, I didn't like KoS and I'd probably, just from an overland point of view, rank it near the bottom slightly above DoF.

I summed up my reasons in the hated zones thread. I was not a fan of the island design from KoS but as a non raider, it had a good mix of solo and group content and AA's were a nice addition. Could they have done better? Yes but, it wasn't DoF with all the hole in the wall instances and I liked it better than all EoF minus CMM. Art-wise, KoS had a zen quality in many areas that I enjoyed as well without breaking the overall art direction of the game.

Was it an awesome expansion in an absolute sense? probably not. But it's the only expansion I can say I enjoyed as much as I still enjoy launch content and the only content I don't dread seeing when I level alts.

I'm convinced you'd think anything with pink was pretty. But I can sympathize to some degree after TSOs amazingly dull color scheme.

EoF was the best expansion this game put out :o If it didn't come with horrendous lag it would have been damn good.
