What was the reasoning behind chosing a wow-esque leveling system? Who needs levels if you can just train skills? Much more intuitive. Levels make no sense and break immersion.
Port are total idiots. Garriot is a fucked retard.

It was originally supposed to be an open skill system like UO, I believe; but I think what happened is they pushed the "Card Deck" system for combat so heavily, the only way they could see to integrate it with skills was to go for the standard WoW model of Levels. From there it poisoned crafting so it too had to be level based, and we ended up with the horrible mess we have now where "cards" are just trait points.

...And now it is. Continue on with your delusions though. Reality speaks to some Dev+ information that is not yet public, I don't think. So I won't comment too much, but there are signs of skill based stuff changing a little bit in the general forums. Go have a look. The Devs have said on multiple occasions however and have a proven track record where they take the "middle ground." You will probably see come bastardized hybrid of both skill and tier selected skill so what you will have is a tier based skilled character with added complexity, grind, and illusion of a skill system. But, we will need to wait and see.

...And now it is. Continue on with your delusions though. That doesn't even make any sense. "And now it is..." ... what? A non level based system? For someone who is supposed to be "Reality", you seem incapable of addressing reality, and the people in it, in any meaningful sense. Insanse suggests you're talking about something in Dev+, but if this is the case, all it proves if you feel smug in your superior spending; but the "Reality" is how many negative reviews on Steam now? We play what we're given, not what you're told in private forums. How much public support is there outside of the forums? Are you going to have the actual courage, honesty, integrity to admit you are wrong when the game craters at launch? I would love for the game to succeed, personally. I'll openly admit my worries were incorrect if the game turns out to be amazing and loved. You aren't, though. So I don't worry much what you think. You're beneath me and irrelevant to the world as it is. I rejoice in your attempts at trolling. Continue on with your worthless life, with my pity as I sail on past you.

Nemo, I think the guy is someone with Dev+ access, smashing us with info he has access to that we do not. We're just lowly plebs, not worthy of that information of course, so he must tout it along to hold over us.
