Dear fine folk over in Seattle;

I know you are quite fond of The Prologue and it's cool and has it's uses. I beleve, however, that it has been universally acknowledged to be a turn off for the new player.

This no download demo is a clever marketing trick since it requires no download and it's free, theoretically presenting a no barrier exposure to the game. Unfortunately the performance in the demo is nothing to be proud of. It's laggy and unresponsive compared to the twitch response of the actual game. It's graphics settings are grainy and on top of that set up in the dreary locale of the prologue.

I feel you'rejust providing an easy no barrier exposure to have people see your game in the worst possible light.

That's silly.

I know for a fact the demo has less than impressed my gaming group, and they refuse to pay the full enchilada for what could be a one week try. I strongly urge you consider passing real free trials for the game and or buddy keys. Right now what you're doing is shooting yourself in the foot.


Kind regards,

Diver, Esq.

I agree, the prologue is terrible. For first impressions, Isle of Dawn is bad, but the prologue is even worse. I don't get how they can screw up something so vital. It's no wonder the game isn't any more than a tiny niche in the MMO market, when you look at what most players saw in the open beta, and now the demo.
