Se7en Tidbits: "Thinning out Jedis" or "What MMO Costs More Than $15 a Month?"

Here are a few tidbits that caught my attention for one reason or another this week:

• “You have to admit, that’s quite a smart way to keep the numbers of Jedi limited.” – Spinks, SWTOR: Jedi, Jedi Everywhere (and all the stars did sink), Spinksville.

• “Who wouldn’t want want to fly around space in a cube?” – Werit, STO’s Next Faction, Werit’s Blog. [Bronte: Who indeed? RESISTANCE IS FUTILE!]

• “(Somebody find an MMORPG that charges more than $14.99 a month please.)” – Willhelm2451, Lawsuit – WoW Isn’t Easy Enough, The Ancient Gaming Noob. [Bronte: I tried searching for five minutes. Oddly enough I couldn't find anything!]

• “Seriously, how dare the designers allow such an atrocity.  That’s like letting a kindergartner hit the square block through the round hole.” – iTZKooPA, You Learn Something New Everyday, Project Lore. [Bronte: Wait, you can't put the square block through the circle? WHAAAAT?"]

• “The Alganon team has been working hard lately, taking the servers down more frequently to patch and update, which should help to minimize problems at launch.” – Rubi Bayer, Alganon’s State of the Game address, Massively. [Bronte: This should be... fun.]

• “Lore in our games is the essential connective tissue that holds the illusion together.” – Julian, Why lore matters, Kill Ten Rats.

• “The conspiracy theories that have found their way into the gaming space can be pretty amazing.” – Bill Roper, An Interview with Cryptic’s Bill Roper, MMOCrunch. [Bronte: Funny how that works out, Bill ]
