I enjoyed Defiance sure. It is in no way demanding or rewarding outside the story quest. So I'm not sure what you're getting at exactly. I am unhappy with the rewards for continued play. I am, on the forums, getting about as much done in the game as if I was logged in to the client.

Defiance has amazing potential. It's mechanically sound, the modeling and collision is good, the AI is ok, the servers have always been stable for me, etc.

It has no depth or skill curve at all.

These views are not mutually exclusive.

I'm thinking you need to learn how to read just a wee bit better and not just look at the pictures....

"Defiance is an even bigger undertaking, with a budget said to reach $80 million, pushing the cost of the overall project well north of $100 million."

And at either $60 mill, $80 mill or $100 mill - at that kind of expense, I would expect that that is no excuse to crap out a piece of garbage and expect us to just sit back and say nothing when it's pure crap. Did I already say that it was crap??
