£8 for 6 months.. that's gone a long way in the other direction from the £10/month it was before.
[The AI are] now not all terrible psychos who see your existence as an error that must be rectified by an endless stream of laser fire. Not only can they be your friends, they’ll actually go to war with one another.
That is as ridiculous as someone saying they're going to stop playing single player games.
1. There are plenty of people who only play video games for competitive multiplayer. 2. How is that anywhere near as ridiculous? MMOs are a very specific sort of game, and it's definitely not for everyone. I got my MMO fix with Runescape back in middle school. I'm done with that shit now.
If I want to roleplay, I'll do it in a game group for a face-to-face social aspect. I enjoy multiplayer, but really just competitive or minecrafting. I did just give MMOs another chance; I tried DCUO. Tired of it after about a day and seeing that Sony's charging $15.99 a month for access.
I pay to play games above that price that do not charge me for continued playing of multiplayer. I'm not going to pay $10 per month to play just one game online. That is, in my opinion, a waste of money.

1) Indies: 2D, Beat
2) Grotesque Tactics
3) PvZ: GOTY
I might get Empire&Napoleon on top of that. It depends on how badly I want comics this month.

Today's lesson: MMO =/= MMORPG.

Nethack, see above.
