Matt Miller has a new column over at MMORPG.com. Let's support him.
Can't wait to see his next one.
That was a good read and I'll be looking forward to more from him. Glad to see he's keeping busy.
I'll keep an eye out for these as well.
Thanks!
Bookmarked! Thanks for the heads up.
You should also check out his article on the 2013 NFL draft (http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1472715-2013-nfl-mock-draft-latest-projections-after-wildcard-playoffs), too!
Ew, sports! :P

Actually, he lost 80lbs last he mentioned it. Dunno if the article is his, though.
Was that purple and chrome outfit the classic 90s Posi that we never got to see?
I dunno about never getting to see it. It's somewhere in the wiki. It's the drawing of the PnP version of the character in Champions.

Our Devs, hard at work, even when they're told they can't show up on the job.
Figured I'd post the link to his latest article here; http://www.mmorpg.com/showFeature.cfm/loadFeature/7058/You-Got-Your-CCG-in-My-MMO.html
Interesting. I wonder what would have happened if booster packs in CoH were tradeable.

It was one of the things I liked about GW2 and various PerfectWorld games. You could trade/sell stuff from the store or simply sell store currency in game.

Probably much as what happens in CO and STO. Those with no money to spend or no desire to spend it would buy them on the auction house off people with more money than sense or a pressing desire for ingame currency right now if not sooner.
And honestly, I think that's a good thing. Keeps the free players playing if they know that in time they can get all that expensive stuff on the store without actually paying for it. But at the same time, the developers don't lose out on money because for the item to exist someone had to pay for it somewhere. Personally I think the way CO/STO achieve this is good, they have two currencies. The cash shop points and an ingame currency that can be exchanged for each other. Some players sell cash shop points for ingame currency, and others sell ingame currency for cash shop points. As long as there's desirable uses for both currencies, there'll always be both on the exchange. (CO has essentially a second cash shop for their ingame stuff, while STO requires amounts of it for almost everything at higher levels. Of the two I think I prefer STO's method.)
