Revolution-G

So, here it is. This is the content that you've been hopefully waiting for and that which the authors wish to respectfully deliver to you. Revolution G is intended to be just that; a revolution for gamers. The writers here hold fast to a core philosophy and belief about gaming, about customer service, and about the mentality behind concepts such as competition. There is an apparent lack of content that touches on these ideals in a no BS manner with no punches pulled. We are here to express our opinions on game design, gaming philosophy, and the direction of the industry and art of gaming in general. It is our goal to remedy what we feel is a situation in which gamers are spoon fed games one after the other that cater to a business plan before they cater to us. We think it's time we remind the "execs" who pays their paychecks. But it isn't just about a guy in a suit. This is also about us. Aided by the influence of gaming companies that wish to pacify us long enough to get our next monthly subscription, the online gaming world is losing its sense of sportsmanship and competition.

As our games become more immersive we as players have become more gripped by greed and monotonous progression. We pay people somewhere behind a desk for the "privilege" to toil for long hours in order to achieve some deceptive and fleeting reward, effectively letting them walk away without accountability for the content of the game or lack thereof. What about the improvement? What about the education? What about the lessons learned and the competition.

We live in a world where competition is hush hush because we don't want to hurt anyone's feelings. What happened to us? Are we going to let ourselves or an industry sully our idea of what a true game should be, or are we going to stand up and change this industry and our own flawed mentality in the process?

We are here to battle the scrub, we are here to battle item-based games, we are here to battle a grind that attempts to replace real content, and we are here to fight for the true concept of a game. We are the Bill O'Reilly of the gaming world. We are not here to make friends. We are here to aid the discouraged gamer that desperately seeks to feel as if the 50 dollar set of CD's he purchased for the next "hot game" wasn't pissed away.
