MMOs

Nobody can prove you wrong. MMO's have never been good.

guild wars and wow and runescape and ultima were the peaks of their own sub genres

(pvp, pve, social, sandbox)

nothing can make as big of a stride as they made because the technology to transmit over the internet hasnt changed

the best you can hope for is smaller studios improving on these games slightly as the tools to make these games have improved and the prices of servers have come down

I don't need a new breakthrough in MMOs to have fun, I just want something that isn't complete dogshit, retardedly grindy while offering nothing new or no variations or stupid P2W shit.

servers cost money
people wont pay monthlys outside of ff14 and wow
and people under 20s dont care about mmos as a genre

>>386278397
Yep, can't argue with you there, anon. Damn shame, though.

>>386279275
I don't mind paying as long as the price is not outrageous and the game is fun.

Anyone plays Age of Wushu/Age of Wulin? I remember trying it a few years ago and had fun. Wonder how it goes nowadays.

MOBAS have taken all the MMO players

I really don't like Diabloclones.

>>386278397

I really enjoy EVE and Wurm with /v/irgins.

Though I guess these games aren't for everyone.

so your dream game requires a monthly fee
and the marketing budget to tell you the monthly fee is worth it

>>386279560
That's true in a way I guess, I do play DotA; although that's mostly because there's nothing else that's good long-term and I use it to bridge the time between releases.

>>386279656
Tried EVE, not my cup of tea.
Wurm is great, I loved playing it when I was younger and had more time. Right now I have a job though and it's not very fun when you reach the point where you only have to work for your upkeep and can't make time for new projects because of decay pretty fast.

>>386279756
Like I said, I don't care if I have to pay as long as it's good. Monthly fee or one time purchase doesn't matter.

guild wars was a massive success, but also go abandoned in 3 years

mmorpg players ruined mmorpgs

they "can't afford" $15 monthly subs, but they can afford to spend $1000 on asian p2w grinders
they don't actually care about playing the game the way they're made to be played, so they spend 8 hrs a day rioting on forums forcing devs to cater to them giving the impression they're the majority of the playerbase when in reality 90% of the players are playing the game with no clue what these retards are doing to the game
in the end bunch of people quit, leaving only the crybabbies to perpetuate their circlejerk and play dressup with costumes worth $50 a pop not actually playing the game
repeat ad infinitum for every new mmo on the market because everyone is retarded and there's money to be made
