Hunter Class

With World of Warcraft’s first hero class under development for the Wrath of the Lich King expansion, there are many speculations on the possibilities of the next hero class that will make it to the game. The Demon Hunter seems to be one of the most popular choices for the next hero class. Here’s what CM Bornakk has to say.
The Death Knight was chosen as the first hero class because it fits well with the Wrath of the Lich King theme but also because it was a popular figure in Warcraft lore. The Demon Hunter is definitley another one making it a nice choice for the next hero class. In terms of addressing a need however, the Demon Hunter would only seem to add to the several dps classes already in the game. The Death Knight will fill the need for more tanks. From a needs point of view I think it’s better for the next hero class to be a healer. Of course I won’t complain if the Demon hunter eventually makes it. We’ll just have to see how this pans out when the right time comes.

Demo Time

This recent article on Shacknews discusses the study that recommended publishers release trailers for their games rather than demos. That may wind up being a good choice for console games where cash cows are their biggest and mediocre titles still manage to sell millions of copies, but it's a horrible strategy for the PC. For one, people need to make sure the game runs fine on their computer, a problem console gamers don't have. But beyond that, "emergent gameplay" is a really important thing for PC gamers, and that can only be created if people play - it will work in a demo, but can't be stuffed into a trailer.

Go ahead and release trailers, but if your game is good, we'll really notice it in the demo. If you're making an MMO, even one that's going into stores for $50, get us a trial. You need to pull those people in, and that's a good way to do it.

Dota (Warcraft)

On the other hand, Dota (Warcraft) is a strategy game where you’re controlling the character from above. See the difference?

Okay it’s not about the game I’m trying to point out. It’s the character of person whose playing it. From my observation throughout the “Teja ” (it’s a Game tournament at my campus), there a huge contrast between those who’s playing Counter Strike and Dota. The most obvious one is, Malay is playing Counter Strike and Chinese playing Dota.
