If only they released the source code, or someone rip it and set up their own servers.

I... have to agree. If that's the reason, out of all the other possible ones that could have happened- well, I can respect that one.Nitewatchman wrote:I actually find that to be kind of admirable.stubby wrote:But LEGO felt that a micropayments focus would cheapen the brand, and that was that. No amount of video game revenue will ever be worth risking threats to the core brand; it's not who LEGO is as a company.
Don't get me wrong; I think it's stupid that they shut it down and I'm sure that it's no picnic for you, Mike, but the idea that they actually gave a crap about their reputation and recognized how much micro transactions cheapen the feel of a game is pretty impressive.

I still stand by my earlier assessment, although I've got a better understanding of what's up from Stubs.
That said "Call of Battle: Blokz" would be an epic game...

Sounds fishy. When did you play? It didn't have a huge amount of content when it first launched, but even I never managed to make it through all the content it has now.feuer_faust wrote:I still stand by my earlier assessment, although I've got a better understanding of what's up from Stubs.

Re: Lego Universe Free!
I started playing right around the time they launched Ninjago. I had completed most of the Ninjago stuff (although it had gotten very tedious by then), and had completed at least a few of the other areas and had significantly made it through the others. I rolled a second guy as a member of a different faction (originally the knight-in-shining-armor guys, then did the turn-the-Maelstrom-against-itself guys), but didn't really feel too diverse for me.
