I'm playing ESO. It's a fucking awful Elder Scrolls game.

But it's not a bad MMO. Well, as far as most modern MMO's go. The PVP is kinda cool. Nuking entire squads is fucking hilarious. It's kinda imbalanced.

Also Werewolf is an actual thing, which is funny.

It's still a decent time sink for I guess. The story is really shitty though (surprise) so don't expect anything in that department. You will probaly have problems doing dungeons on higher difficulties unless you find someone to group with, but the game doesn't have the biggest community anymore.

Also you will miss out on bragging with your gigantic mounts that you spend hours grinding for.
>>
MMOs were good back when it was cool to talk to people on the internet. The novelty has worn off. If you want PvP you will play assfaggots if you want to play alone you'll play rpgs like dark souls.

MMOs aren't resigned for 25+ people to group up anymore. And that makes them lose third purpose.

I love the dungeons, trials and combat but everything else is just usual filler trash, especially when it comes to the story
>hey we need you to prepare a feast before we let you do a trail

There are countless examples theres like 90% trash filler and 10% actual story.
>>
>>376899356
Well, the quests themselves obviously are your usual MMO fetch stuff, but if you don't enjoy yourself on your way to max level there isn't much for you to look forward to. FFXIV, for me at least, is all about the universe, story and characters. Leveling different jobs, doing their questlines, crafting and shit. The "endgame" consists of doing 2-3 Alex raids a week and that's it. You don't even need very good equip for it, it mainly depends on your group and if they can follow basic instructions.
Also PVP is utter trash in FFXIV.

I'm calling bullshit, even if the raids are timegated like every other MMO that doesn't mean it isn't more fun than walk into purple circle and kill 2-3 guys. I'm at level 56 and some of the trials like thok ast thok were like a raid boss and blew my mind, i can't wait to experience raids. As for PvP i really don't like how you can only pvp at 60 so i have no input on that but it can't be unplayable

tfw everyone whines about their MMO and youre actually enjoying the one everyone shat about when it came out.

I mean i admit, ESOs non PvP and Trial content is way too easy, but its shaped up to be actually competent.

Now to talk about a Game i havent played in ages: i played Everquest 2 for a while but never realy got into it. Aperently one month after i stopped playing they announced Rise of Kunark which supposedly was the high point of that game and a great expansion.

It also put a large focus on my favorite race from that setting.
Recently ive been looking up the OST and got hit with nostalgia for something i didnt even play.

Anyone here played that? Was it any good? Since EQ2 is basically dead and was never popular to begin with i can bareley find any screenshots or videos about it that arent in french.

Did i actually miss out? was i right to jump ship?
Why does the fact that EQNext is dead still hurt?

It's especially funny actually because the mage class is ridiculously overpowered at the beginning and I was able to solo most of the stuff that my friends could hardly beat together.
>>
>>376903219
To be fair there are so many MMOs that play like shitty single-player games that if I found non-instanced content that I can't easily solo I'd be put off too. I'd probably think I'm doing something really wrong.
He's still a bitch for complaining about it though.

saw the shop that's probably the biggest problem i dont mind being locked out of some content if i dont pay every month but selling gold is always pretty shitty

>>
>>376904149
For a game that is all about the economy its so utter fucking stupid

If one player works to make 10,000g another can literally just use their credit card to catch up or progress beyond them. It just utterly fucking ruins any immersion in the game.

No matter what you do or see you'll continuously be thinking 'that guy probably just paid to get there'

And it wont change, the developers have come out and said they dont consider anything they do P2W.

Ping doesn't affect gameplay very much since most of the game is client-side.

Yiff in hell furfag. Everyone, even those that don't play the game, know the only RP in that game is ERP.

>>376904402
Yeah no.

The first time you experience the dungeon it is great. Subsequent times you'll be arguing with the rest of the party on which bosses to kill and who wants what sections.

Pretty much every branching dungeon in mmos gets streamlined to the most reward for time spent. Anyone going against this will cause dissatisfaction from the rest of the party.

Anyone got Ashes of Creation on their radar? Idk, I've been giving it a look, but the genre itself has gotten so bland and cliche.

BDO I felt would have been good if I'd had some friends play with. It was close, but just couldn't keep me engaged. If it had some battlegrounds I feel I would have stayed. I didnt mind grinding.

I saw Steam Hammer on Steam the other day, but it looks pretty brown and dull.

It does seem very generic. Classes aren't segregated into set trees. Hopefully that lends to uniqueness.

That said the armors are bland and world (i've seen so far) is a bit uninspired. But i can get past that as long as the world shaping influence the players have on it remains dynamic.

The only MMOG i'm currently waiting for is Pantheon.

And you know why?

Because it applies the most basic online game design principles without any gimmicky shenanigans.

I'm sick of MMORPGs trying to become stuff they aren't (which is essentially shitty versions of action single player games).

Just give me pure online game design - even with all its shitty implications - and that's it.

I'm done with experiments at this point.

EQ2 was one of the last old school mmos that hit somewhat big. But honestly people just were won over by the sheer casual simplicity of wow which was direct competition of eq2 on release.

Graphics was fantastic for it's time, but system requirements were through the roof also, which hurt retention and sales a lot as wow could run decently well on potato. Gameplay was very oldschool too on release, i am talking about zero solo mobs past tutorial island, you needed the group to do anything. There was the whole camp this named mob for 8 hours thing, intricate multilayer dungeons with zero map functionality, obscene xp penalties on death forcing you to regrind your level twice or thrice over if you die often enough, stupidly long attunement quests for the end game content, crafting that was a game of it's own... Pretty much all the old school mmo design that wow streamlined.

Still it was, together with Vanguard, mmo that grasp the whole idea of world to explore the best, it had some instancing and you needed to load into most of the zones, but the sheer amount of things out there, quests, languages that you could learn and actually speak, dungeons that actually felt like dungeons, was staggering.

Ofcourse all of what made it unique was slowly streamlined to catch wow subs train, Faydwer was the peak i think, it all went downhill afterwards.

I'm waiting on Ashes of Creations to completely die in development so I can give up on ever finding a game in which I can gather and craft while feeling important. Tried FFXIV but it was cancer filled with horrible design choices such as NEEDING a combat class and going through 120 hours of bullshit just so you can get to max level crafting/gathering and be able to do next expansion crafting/gathering on stop of locking the best leveling method which is leves which are then gated by 6 per day for 11? 12? classes.

There was.
It looked like a regular classic MMORPG like everquest.
And that's all I fucking want at this point.

I'm well aware that kind of game is massively unpopular with most people.
Shit, old MMORPGs always had trash scores in most gaming magazines back in the day because even back then autistic journalists couldn't handle games that actually require you to interact with other people.

I don't want action combat systems
I don't want sieges or even PvP conquest modes
I don't want survival open world bullshit
I don't want a fucking singleplayer story with shitty writing

I want a regular dungeon crawler in a detailed world, with fun classes and focus on group gameplay.

That's it.

I want an mmorpg that is basic but well designed.
Something that makes people create videos like these:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAyxdS1SSoo

Don't bother with any of the other shit. It's not gonna work out anyway. We've seen that so many times.

Instead, just go with the minimalistic approach: An exploration heavy, group focused MMORPG. That's all I want.

And your best bet there is really with pantheon at the moment.
At least I don't see any other game that would go into that direction.

The only things I disagree with is the Paladin casting a protection spell to get you through traps. Traps detection and removal is rogue business (not back stabby stabby assassinations as so many games make them). The other thing I disagree with is the secret entrance you have to craft a consumable to get in. That should either be a key or a class specific ability like the mage ability to solve an arcane puzzle or a rogue ability to pick a lock.

I'm not against having things only particular classes, or even specializations of classes, can do in a dungeons, or in the world. I'm all for that, actually. They just need to be things that 'that' class should do, not something that leaves you going, "Isn't getting us through a field of traps the rogue's job?"

It's hard to explain but what makes Everquest feel special is that it feels like they created the Norrath first and then "fit" the game inside it.

The world didn't revolve around you and you were a part of something much bigger.

Pantheon is the last hope for this genre. If it bombs there won't be another pre-2000 style MMO ever again. That said, they are making huge progress and just recently secured series A funding that has allowed them to hire another dozen people and start to flesh out and ultimately finish the game.

I backed the original Kickstarter in 2013 and have alpha access whenever that happens. I'll make sure to let you faggots know if it sucks.

GW1 let you be a true minion mancer, once upon a time. Eventually they capped your minions though that's relative, because you can still have a fuckton of minions, especially if your heroes have minions too. Sadly the best way to play a minion mancer is to have one of your heroes be the minion mancer because then your minion healing and resummoning is automated for you.

too bad the game ran like utter dog shit, and brad mcquaid fired the entire development staff a couple months before launch so we all knew the game was doomed

It's simplified and rollercoaster'd to the max. It's literally single player mmo with instant matchmaking but no one doesn't even talk in chat during dungeons so it's like running with npcs. The multiplayer aspect shines in raiding in a guild, and maybe in pvp but... I dunno man. I'd like to go back but it changed so much and I've grown up so it's not the same. The "you are the chosen master champion hero of azeroth" instead of an adventurer doesn't help either

Been giving Guild Wars 2 another honest "no bias" try. Almost level 20 on my salad guardian, enjoying the game. Trying to not think about how the personal story will turn into being treaherne's secretary, or how a bunch of the living story is locked behind paywall. Not gonna jump on my old lvl 80 character from launch as that would just be confusing after all this time.

Also don't have the expansion so I can't go that far anyway. However, the early game is damned fun, and I always did like the discovery system for crafting.

>you have a group of faggots and a really dull lesbian couple in exchange.
Eh, don't mind that. No idea why people on /v/ all of a sudden complain about lesbians.

I bought the game on release and got about 100 hours in it, made it to Orr as an engineer then gave up because the whole zone fucking sucked. I heard they did fix Orr at least post-release. Mainly I just love the art style and world design, combat is alright, and it doesn't have a per month payment so I can just take a break once I get tired of it's shit.

Not him but I believe it has to do with the recent 'diversity' trend that modern Western society is taking, in this case where most/every important character HAS to be LGBT/etc.

>made it to Orr as an engineer then gave up because the whole zone fucking sucked
Orr was fine if you had a group to play with.

It was the first zone that actually forced you to group (or at least zerg) stuff.

Reaching Orr for the first time with my group off mmo friends was a lot of fun actually.

True, but oh well I don't have any problem with more LGBT characters, just don't like it when it isn't done well. I realize it most likely isn't done well in GW2 since they can't write for shit.

>>376911902
Yeah, I know it was meant for a group. But it was still just packed with enemies that were not fun to fight. Also some public quests were just outright broken and wouldn't finish (was leading some NPC somewhere and we reached the point and they just... sat there, the quest wouldn't continue). The boring-ness of the fights and amount of them combined with the broken quests killed the game for me. That's why I'm going through again, see if I can enjoy it now. Not sure I'm enjoying guardian all that much. Want to play a necromancer but I don't want to restart again and necros suck compared to GW1 necros.

I think it can be worth it if you're playing for the first time and you quest through the zones. The storylines are okay and each zone has a self-contained one (something I like is that you get a status on current lore progress through a zone on loading screens). Leveling gets tedious after about 50+ though but it's a solid hotkey MMO--albeit with lots of changes from when I played a lot of it--and you may as well enjoy what you can however long.

Anyone else play those awful MMOs where they're hollow and empty but are good for a few days of play?

This argument is dumb since almost every game with race/gender locked classes and equipment ends up having NPCs in world that defy the restrictions without giving players anyway to overcome them aswell.

Let us analyze what a "WoW-killer" would signify.

It would be a game that can easily be "enjoyed" by millions of people, children and elderly alike. To "kill wow" and take its fanbase over to itself, it'd have to become an even more streamlined, even more casualized, even more mainstream experience.

Why would any self-respecting person with taste in video games want to play such an abomination? If you want to wallow in that sort of cancer, why not stay with the evil you're already familiar with, WoW?

Back in the day of Ultima Online having 100 000 players was a huge achievement and the company was making plenty of profit. I don't think servers are any more expensive nowadays, so why does everyone aim to carry a mountain of gold?

The game definitely takes some liberties here and there with the lore, for example the runekeeper class can call down lightning via writing letters on stone. However, the iconic landmarks are faithfully depicted and quite cool, places like weathertop, rivendell, bag end etc. I can't really comment much on story events as I'm not a lorefag.

In general, I think if you're looking for lore, lotro won't disappoint. What it does disappoint in however, is other critical gameplay elements I mentioned in my previous post. Lotro's f2p model is also very restrictive.

Very badly. In the first place, you'll have to pay 95 lotro points (their cash shop currency) to unlock a riding skill. Secondly, there are two types of travel at lotro stablemasters, swift and regular. Swift travel is a teleport, regular travel is a horse about 2x faster than your mount travelling. A crucial difference is that swift travel lets you skip stables, whereas regular travel does not. For example, from bree to rivendell, regular travel has two stops and a 15 min journey whereas swift travel is a loading screen.

Note that swift travel is unlocked by subscribing and that subscribers are given the riding skill free at level 20.

You could grind 95 lotro points. The game has deeds, and completing these deeds reward you with a small amount of points, around 5 to 20. So at low levels, there are deeds to kill certain things. An example of one of these deeds is to kill 90 spiders. This will give you 15 tp. It's possible to get 95 and unlock the riding skill this way.

I try to get into FFXIV but my problem with the game is how "boring" all items are.

Say I find a new chest. My character has 2 main stats and the new chest is just going to be +56/+56 instead of my old +54/+54 for example. That's literally it.

No item, not even weapons, ever seems to have anything interesting. You know, special stats or procs or something. Some kind of "chance to hit twice on strike" or "after taking % damage shoot out a fireball", I don't know.

I just feel like all gear in this game is so damn bland and it's always just going up by tiny bits from +x/+y to slightly better stats.

Giving it away for a limited time is not a good way in a long run. When there no promotion, nobody level their alt because the leveling itself is bad. I would start by double or tripling the exp gain and give the player the ability DISABLE the beeper unless A) the main quest or B) part of the quest line.

XIV is more about the journey, not the endgame. That's what most MMO players hate about it: they end up putting the game down once they clear the current content.

Id say that at least in ESO crafting is quite an integral part of getting good endgame gear.

Of course you cannot actually get decent endgame gear without dropped sets. But at least one or two of the three sets you wear in that game will be crafted.

>>
>>376906875
Two reasons; First they would need to do a MUCH better job of balancing PVP. Gear would also be a problem as unlike EVE it's very easy for a well geared character to fend off numerous weaker attackers without breaking a sweat. Whereas EVE generally is the inverse where numbers trump all.

The second problem and one EVE suffers from immensely is people become risk adverse faggots the very second they could stand to loose something, it encourages some really shitty anti-fun tactics (for both sides).

Yep. Not him, but I agree. It's the most underrated MMO and definitely the most enjoyable, it's a complete breath of fresh air.

It's not an MMO like XIV or WoW, but after raiding and being Hardcore in those games for so long, TESO is great.

TESO is the only MMO I'd describe as "fun." I love MMOs like XIV and WoW but I play them because of the feeling of accomplishment I feel when I clear content, not because they're fun moment to moment. They're more like Virtual jobs.

It's just fun to explore and dick around in TESO.

I thought so too at first but the only stuff it takes from game of thrones is associating cold with the undead(which isn't really original to GoT anyways) and there is a faction in the lore referred to as either crows or ravens who are some sort of rangers

3d chat room that you can travel all those instances

>>376952404
All the instances share the world map and any that are touching allow "seemless" travel across them, so think of each island or continent as a different instance.

Black Desert's character creation is garbage.

>>376954179
I always find it retarded people praise you can create anything with that character creation but it just a load of crap, just like that Micheal Jackson shit where it really just a girl. I'm also kind of piss people tend to ignore god tier character creation like City of X or Champions Online

>praise you can
Praise that you can*

>>376954538
Black Desert has a ton of sliders but all of them are shitty and poorly implemented. Sliders will move themselves on their own after exiting the character creation. There's very limited options for hair and most of them are shit. I could go on and on. Black Desert character creation is so garbage.

>game with perfectly fine art-style breaks it when getting updated and has disgustingly warped proportions
>same game also has a very in depth customizable appearance, letting you hide chicken-leg armors for pants
newscape isn't that bad if you stop trying to relive nostalgia and take it as is

Anyone played this?

I remember playing the UK(?) Beta in 2006 - 2008 sometime.
After that started again when the official UK servers went live.

Didn't touch it for years, forgot my account, made a new one earlier this year. It's plagued by bots, anyone can bot 24/7 the mods/GM's do not care. The UK servers are dead as far as I can say. German version is still really active.

Continuing on.

Love the companion and pet system. Otherwise the grind really got bad at level 45 - 50. For anyone trying to get a clue how this game plays, it's like ragnarok online but whith a lot less type of classes. You'd choose a one of three classes at job level 20, mage, archer, swordsman. Based on that you'd unlock specialist cards. Like ranger, warrior, red mage. Only thing that makes me still like it is the nostalgic feeling.

Since when has Code Nemesis ever been relevant? I know Code Electra has some problems but that should be better than Nemesis right? How is Code Empress not better than all of them?

What about randomised dungeons? That way you're forced to explore and improvise, and you won't get autists going for the most optimal route every time

What MMOs can I be a bard and buff the shit out of my party members with sweet music?
>>
>>376957612

>>
>>376957612

Stopped playing long ago mang. Turbine fucked it when they took devs off DDO for LOTRO. (GiantHold onwards). Game became grind 40 shroud raids... fuck.

Not FFXIV. Don't listen to people who tell you otherwise.

Why do people even like MMOs anyway? Sometimes I get this strong urge to play one, but the second I actually get around to it I'm reminded how shit they are and lose interest within 3 days. It's the most stupidest thing, I don't know why I occasionally feel like playing games of a genre I know I hate
>>
>>376939964
Great game 1-max. Post game is shit. PvP is okay.
>>
I'm still playing legion. I can understand grief with it, but I'm mythic raiding twice a week in nighthold and finally doing stuff like fishing (going for that fishing artifact)

I found that when I gave up on the pvp mini game I ended up enjoying the game alot more.

Back in the day, it was the social interaction and the feeling that you're working together towards a greater purpose.

Now, it's just nostalgia.
>>
>>376958819
It a never ending RPG. I grew up with RPG and I hate how everything I finish an RPG, the game ends and all my work are moot. At least with MMO, all that progress end if the server is shut down forever
>>
>>376895081
god i need to go back and play the game, isnt it done?
>>
>>376957954
half the classes in AO desu

>trader steals skills from enemies and then uses raised skills to cast more powerful skill drains until everything is fucking dead
>can use skill steal shit to equip high level gear easy as fuck too

>fixers have shittons of HoT shit, and sanic speed runspeed and evade buffs

>docs get tons of HP buffs to cast and heal themselves all fucking day while spamming DoT

>adventurers get heals almost as good as docs but also fucktons of damage shield and attack buffs and can turn into wolves/bears/whateverthefuck

>agents can mimic other classes and use whatever fucking buffs they want

i think keepers have a bunch of paladin type buffs and shit too but literally nobody ever plays keeper

When I was a kid, the most fun I had with Maple Story was the day my brother and I decided to quit. We ran through one of the towns yelling racist shit about Indians. We didn't give a fuck, we were quitting the game so who cares if we got banned?

I never liked MMOs even when I was younger, I seriously don't get why I care about them still. I suppose the most fun I get out of them now is with character creation. Researching what class to pick and how to build my character, as well as the character creator at the start. God, that's basically all MMOs are good for now, making characters.
