WTH is Steampunk?
Why would HTC use their time playing around with new ideas that look like a low-budget historical movie gone wrong, when AH is their piece of cake? Myself being a musician, not a coder/computer person/whatever, I don't know much. But I DO know that it takes a fairly long time for something like that to be designed, created, textur-ed, skinned, brought up to working order, and introduced to the game. May as well continue to ameliorate what we have, rather than sidetrack onto different things.
As for what's not to like about the genre... i don't think I really want to hear what isn't to like. And I've never heard of it.
