Love It Or Hate It: DC Universe Online
Some free-to-play games are more polarizing than others, with some sides taking the stance of "great, totally non-exploitative implementation" and others thinking "total pay-to-win trash." We'd like to see on what side of the spectrum the gaming public -- and by that, we mean you guys -- think of certain F2P games, and so we've invented something new called Love It Or Hate It?
Every week, we'll present a new F2P game and give you the option of passing judgment on it. Then we'll look back at it the next week and see what people thought. There are no prizes, except for the satisfaction of knowing you clicked on a button and made something happen. Really, what else do you need?
Last week, we put forth Aion, which seemed to fall on the low end of user satisfaction, with just a 37% Love It score versus 14% Hate It. Nearly half of you (49%) voted "Meh," which probably seems closest to my views on the matter.
This week, we'll look at DC Universe Online, which Daybreak keeps saying is popular, especially on consoles, but which hardly ever seems to garner the huge headlines or be something people talk about as being something they play a lot. Perhaps more than anything we've done so far, I'll be interested to see how the comments stack up, in addition to the voting.
Tell us what you think of DCUO, and leave a comment below to expound upon your views!
