Love It Or Hate It: Firefall
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?
Daybreak Game Company might have a new name and a new CEO, but that doesn't mean it gets a pass for its past sins. Last week, you guys were pretty solidly negative in your view of the company, giving it a 27% Hate It versus just 22% Love It. The company's definitely had its missteps, so it'll be interesting to see if the new management can right the ship.
Let's head on over to the post-apocalyptic world of Firefall, which, like Red 5 Studios itself, is recovering nicely from its near-total destruction.

All of that got thrown out the window at the last minute when Red 5 got cold feet. They suddenly decided to play it "safe" by changing it into little more than WoW-clone grindfest, but with more carpal tunnel and far less content.
