Correction: Although many people have short attention spans, all it takes is a little nudging for the memories to gush forth. The internet neither forgives, nor does it forget. People remember.

Logic? You're asking too much of these people.

I was frankly quite appalled by their mispelling of the word 'appalling'.

And this is why I prefer to work at home, keeping company (on the internet) with people who don't annoy me like a bad rash.

He means Bill when he says "sushi monger". Bill likes sushi, apparently?

It's the constant denials and the pushing of the blame that just grinds my gears.

I've been following the game for a very, very long time. I'm frustrated -- deeply so.

The game was a disappointment. Most of us tried to like it. But it certainly didn't turn out the way we wanted it to be. Now, guys like Bill might say that everyone disappointed in the game had 'unreasonable' expectations, but all we wanted from Hellgate was a good game, really. It wasn't.

I even turned down several lucrative offers to sell the website before Hellgate's launch because my colleagues and I wanted to dedicate ourselves to the community, to the game. In addition, we also thought we could eventually get a better deal where we'd have managed to retain total creative control over the development of the website.

When I go to my other website, HellgateGuru.com, and take a look at the population on the forums, a far cry from what it was during its heyday, or even several months after the game's release, it makes me feel a pang of regret. Years dedicated -- to this? What is Hellgate Guru but a monument to an epic failure?

That's pretty much how I feel about it.

It's funny how they went ahead and launched a game with a completely messed up subscription model despite the fact that they had not enough content, and still don't. Guess who got screwed? The customers.

The difficulty, I fear, isn't in its implementation. The difficulty is in whether it looks good and allows the game to look playable.

Besides, if you read the interview carefully he states that there will for a matter of fact be light radius but only in some dungeons.
