I love MMOs as well, and I approve.
I also love the intro: there are many new faces here, and outside of the community members we don't know who a lot of them are. It was nice to get a bit of history on you: welcome!

Well, a hearty "Who the fuck is David Moore?!" to you!
Nice round up! I can definitely appreciate it!

@Tubatic You beat me to it.
So glad there was a little bio included with this post. I have no idea who all these new writers are.
I'm not an MMO fan, but I love the title of this series!

@TriplZer0, etc.
We do have a lot of new faces around here as we try to expand our coverage to other areas, like more MMO stuff. Thanks for being gentle with them!

Whoa, just in time! I've been meaning to try some MMOs to see what the fuss is all about.
So, WELCOME! :D
So, WELCOME! :D
Who the f*** is David Moore? Welcome!! This is an awesome feature, nice to know what MMO's are out there.
Maybe I'll finally hear something about Undead Labs' projects.. Been a while since I heard ANYthing.
Aaaaaah, were I an MMO fan I'd be ecstatic...still, a good source to refer to in case I don't understand what's happening in the MMO world.
Guild Wars 2 is going to be a very big deal, not just for MMOs but for gaming in general I think. So it's always been a huge letdown that updates on its development and information reveals by the devs at ArenaNet never get covered by Destructoid. Looking forward to seeing this change. I'd love for my favorite game site to start reporting on my most anticipated game. Being the fan that I am, I get all the GW2 as soon as it happens from numerous official and other unofficial sources, but this is about spreading the word and informing those who haven't been following it like I have. :)
Hi everyone,
Thanks so much for the warm welcome. It's exciting to be here reporting on the insanity of our beloved persistent worlds.
Rest assured both Guild Wars 2 and Undead Labs work-in-progress will be mentioned from time to time. =D

Nice to see some MMO news, though I personally don't care much for the genre.
Welcome to Destructoid.
Welcome to Destructoid.
Who the FUCK is David Moore?!
Now that that's outta the way..
Sup with the stupid name? I thought those were reserved for Slowtaku? If this is a feature that is going to be taken serious by MMO gamers(read: the hardcore), it would help to know that the feature('s writer) at least takes itself seriously.
Speaking of which, I liked the catchy subtitles you gave each paragraph. Not necessary, but I like the extra effort. It'll be interesting to see if you can keep them fresh/witty every week.
In regards to the feature itself; Are you going to be delving into each game in more detail than a simple paragraph? I ask because, though I've played a healthy amount(aint nothing healthy about how many and how much I've played) of MMO's going on a decade now and have never heard of Gamebunny, so I am not sure of your/their knowledge and/or how they cover it.
Speaking of which; Are you going to be covering MMO's from a newbie perspective, or as/for those who have played an MMO or two? I ask this because I've seen some of the most idiotic anti-MMO comments from the community here, usually in regards to how all MMO's should be free to play and how they can't fathom why anyone would pay a monthly fee for an MMO, due to some unrealistic moral conflict or because they feel that they wouldn't get their money's worth if they stopped playing for five minutes to go eat, and finally, how they could never get into an MMO because they have a preconceived notion that they would become 'addicted' as the stereotype dictates.
Last but certainly not least; Will you be covering more than just updates? Announcements? Debuts? When one goes free-to-play? Shuts down(R.I.P. SW:G[pre-CU&NGE)? When there is new/old life to be found in one(SW:G Emu has provided a pre-CU/NGE experience for many months now)?
Thorough? Yes, however, I'm passionate about the MMO's I play, which is why I'd like to know if this feature will mean the difference between something I follow voraciously, or an article I skim on my way to in-depth MMO coverage sites. Hopefully, I didn't come off too harsh, I believe my bluntness might have to do with the fact that; since I pay ~$15/Month per MMO, I sure as hell am going to keep informed on them.
As I'm writing this on my iPhone on a road trip, can't see the text field(its actual size is 0.5 inches x 0.5 inches) to see if I've written a WALL-OF-TEXT-ATTACK or not, so I will end this at WELCOME!
