Anyone ever wanted to get into an MMO but had nobody to play

>>388362873
FFXIV

>>388362873
I may be interested in this. You are looking at MMOs specifically?

>>388363343
FUCK NO
Also GW2 is full of SJWs so don't even bother.
TERA was alright. /v/ and /a/ ran shit there for a few years but it's too late now

https://maple.global.com/

Maplestory v1

>>388363343
I'd be happy to start FFXIV, and I'm sure it's much better than the F2P offerings. It just depends if others here are happy to pay a sub fee to play with anons. If you're interested then we can, sure. I just thought of a couple of free ones off the top of my head,
>>388363427
Yep, the genre isn't much when played solo but could be a lot of fun if we just mess around and enjoy ourselves.

I remember playing Mabinogi and Flyff with /v/ years ago. The cheaper, more grindy mmorpgs seem to be the most fun, ones with a lot of content/huge player bases like FFXIV or WoW never really worked out well.

>>388364702
What's Twin Saga like?

FFXIV shills get out

>>388365071
Not a clue, hadn't touched anything in a while. Remember everyone getting hyped for Tree of Life and that fell through the moment the handler for the NA release was announced.

Star Wars Galaxies

RIP ;_;

Is ESO in anyway whatsoever fun?

>>388366170
It's okay. After a million pounds of updates and all level scaling it's kind of interesting, but I found it kind of dull.

Star Wars The Old Republic. It's easy to play but the story is where it's at. And it's free bois

>>388366170
My only issue with it is that enemies scale down/up to your level, meaning you can wander into pretty much any area in the game and be 100% confident you can come out fine. The game itself seems cool, but it feels a bit like a mindless content dump since progression is so insignificant. I didn't mind the combat.

I don't play well in groups in MMOs because I like to take things slow and enjoy the leveling up, while most people nowadays just see it as a process that must be sped up as much as possible, so I won't join your cause, but I fully support it morally and I'll be cheering for you from the sidelines.

So, let's decide on a game. For free options we have

>Tera
>Guild Wars 2
>Maplestory
>Twin Saga
>The Old Republic
>Secret World Legends
>Rift
>Wildstar

And if you're happy to chip in a little money
>WoW
>FFXIV
>Black Desert
>ESO

Reply with what interests you most, and we can start whatever gets the most replies. I'll start a new thread once we settle on one.

>>388367181
Wouldn't mind checking out Twin Saga, so a vote for that.

>>388367181
guild wards 2 ins't free tho. nor is swtor if you want to actually do anything.

>>388367391
The base game is free so you can still get to max level and WvW with everyone else.

>>388362873
I'm currently playing GW2 alone and having fun with it, but having someone to play with would be nice.

I hate playing with other people. Makes me anxious and I always feel pressured into tryharding. Started playing Guild Wars 2 about half a year ago and still love it. I even do 5 group PvE and shit, but mostly open world exploring and events with 100+ people. People in fractals (basically 5 man dungeons) are usually very nice and you can just lay back if you know what youre doing. Very chill. Im in a guild but never talk to anyone. I just grind my ass off and watch Norm MacDonald and other fun/comfy shit.

Don't fall for the "play an MMO with /v/" meme, you will regret it.

>>388368339
>>388368363
It's just something to try for fun, it doesn't need to be serious competitive stuff. We can just explore and do dumb shit if you like, take it slow. I'd assume we'd mostly have MMO rookies so there shouldn't be any pressure.

I have no issue joining up for a romp through GW2

>>388368363
*raises paw*

>>388367258
I'd go for that too since I never heard of it, looks like it's your usual anime grindan simulator but whatever

>>388369137
you dont get it. i was trying to tell you that there are online games where you dont even have to talk to people or actively play with them. and thats a good thing. online games are always inferior to single player games. and also, you REALLY dont wanna play with /v/. its seriously the worst experience you can possibly have. this board always complains about other people, but in reality /v/ is the absolute most retarded and annoying type of community you can find in an actual game.

What about something that costs money but has a free trial, like FFXIV or WoW?

>>388368363
Warbros proves you very, very wrong but you are generally right, /v/ was only good when the mods actively banned people who didn't belong here, and it was comprised of serious gamers only

>>388367181
I like Lord of the Rings Online, which you can play for free and also purchase the expansions for the currency you get from achievements. It'll take you a long fucking time, but it's possible.

>>388369493
I'd be up for FFXIV. WoW could be cool too but I'd prefer everyone to be on an even playing field, and it's been out so long we'd have some people rushing to endgame and others who want a comfy social questing experience.

>>388369786
I started playing FFXIV recently but I'd love to play with you, assuming you're not a teenager and willing to play on a European server.

>>388369895
I guess you could do the quests together, right? And FATEs!

>>388369884
aoe pulls are the best kind of levelling though

>>388369895
This anon has a point, XIV is absolutely terrible to play with other people.

>Solo quest instances as part of main story
>All classes on one char means starting over is legitimately painful for anyone who's already played it

What is the most popular free MMO right now?

>>388370053
I agree, but why are the yellow champ animations so bad

>>388369993
FFXIV would be fun eventually, but everyone starting in opposite sides of the world will be frustrating early on. We might have everyone in Gridania except for 1-2 people who are forced to play the first few hours on their own.

I bought GW2 when it was on sale for like 20 bucks like 3 yearsa go, I still have the serial number and everything, what's different from paid and free.

>>388362873
playing video games with /v/ is horrible, way too much of the board population is of the reddit memespouting retard variety. expect any game you play to have memes run into the fucking ground and 0 independent thought from your allies (you will have to carry).

>tfw nobody on /v/ will EVER join me on Aion

>>388370596
Didn't bother with it. Came out during that "We're all WoW clones" period and I went to WAR and Rift with friends who dropped both after the free month periods.

>>388367181
>>388367391
>>388367958

Yeah Gw2 is free, but is a pain in the ass.

Also dont play that game, gw1 was great, gw2 sucks compared to it, but WAS still good.

The game sucks now, there is no endgame you just change your clothes everytime devs release something new. PvP was the awesome of that game but with new specs everything was dumbed down. The game is on his final gasp.

>>388370596
hello shill

>>388370705
Yeah, but now that WoW clones aren't a meme and it's actually a fact that all MMOs post-WoW are alike, Aion is one of the best now with more content than any post-WoW MMO besides WoW itself.

>>388370836
How can I be a shill for a game that released 9 years ago?

>>388365291
Private servers are still a thing

So Twin Saga is played via the browser?

>>388370924
oh shit I thought it was that fucking game some faggot kept spamming, starts with A and is like 5 letters long wew

>>388371102
On top of that, every username I've tried is taken, so bots have already ruined that game. And no, my username isn't something commonplace or a reference to any popular name/character.

>>388370824
Hm. General consensus seems to be either GW2 or Twin Saga. Both are free. Just let me know and I'll set it to download.

>>388371102
Nope, it gives you a download link once you choose your username. >>388371456 I had no issue with the first name I chose.

>>388370596
Aion is in a pretty sad state at the moment, it was best game during 2.0-4.0 but unplayable now

Suggest something else, by all means. I know there are other games like LOTR and Everquest, but to be honest I'm not too familiar with the lesser-known games in the genre.

FFXI is on sales.

All the time. I have a neet friend I like to play vidya with, but anything like this that relies on progression ive given up on.

Wurm Unlimited is a pretty good choice IMO if you're looking for something to play for an indeterminate time with a few people.

- Private servers, will never shut down
- Custom rule sets, from exp gain to spawn rates
- Easily pirate-able (pirated version works with launcher and server lists)
- Runs OK on a toast, can also be cranked up on higher end PCs to look arlight
- Comfy as fuck with in-depth player home building and cooking / farming / crafting systems.

It pleases me. I was playing during the relaunch this January, but between my wageslaveness and the fact that at the time I had to devise a system to start the game from my phone two hours before getting home so that I wouldn't have to wait, I ended up distancing myself from it.

That would still take me upwards of one day to download. Unfortunately this connection doesn't want to work anymore and I get shit speeds. Even my ping's gone to shit. Back when I played Blade & Soul on their crappy servers I'd get 16ms, now no game goes below 60ms. I hate it so much.

I had been doing some research on mmos the past 2 weeks since I got the itch myself

Not ffxiv since I reached the end of the most recent story, maxed out my 1 gatherer and I'm not really into savage raiding for gear.

Tons of looking into why archeage is dead, and I'd say its a fucking shame. I loved fresh start server, its like almost the perfect mmo for me.

Albion online kinda looks like what I want but it seems to way too dumbed down, including the graphics.

Spells seem sticky which had me worried because games love to pull that shit on every attack, but one of the cross class skills is melee and it's free moving

Super moves are weird as hell because they aren't just big spells, but rather an execution-type attack that's specific to the mob instead

Pic related, I'm a mage

Just joining the thread now, s-should I download this twin sagas game?

Just make friends in game you autist. Play the game, socialize, git gud and make friends that way.

Do you also tell amputees to walk it off?

Twin Saga looks fucking awful

>>388383065
cute loli

>>388369735
Yes! I love Lotro, but I don't have any friends to play with, if /v/ starts playing I'm in.

>>388383183
You should, it'll be fun
Most of us are still downloading I think, we haven't met up yet
Post when you're all in please, don't go silent on us

>>388383287
Most people I "meet" are antisocial as fuck. I say hi, they immediately walk the other way.

Twin Saga is almost done downloading for me, atleast I won't have any qualms about immediately uninstalling it as soon as I get in since it took 5 minutes to download

>>388383183
Find something to do for the next 30 minutes, because it takes a while to download.

Would've been fun to jump on spiral knight with /v/. It always end up dying though. I think I've seen the rise and fall of 4 /v/ guilds on that game

I'm installing now, I'm sure the patching will take a decent amount of time since it's almost always slower.

I expect you guys to play monster hunter worlds

>>388362873
I beta tested and then briefly played Everquest Online Adventures for the PS2. It was really fun, and I miss the feeling I used to get playing EQ2 with people, and just flying around on my magic carpet and talking to an oil worker from NOLA.

It's playable for me
Which server/channel are we using?

Honestly I'd say wait for an archage fresh start, they might do it they might not but that would be a 10/10 mmo experience right there....at least for 3 months after launch then you drop it and never look back.

>>388384729
I only see one server, and I joined the first channel

Name's Izmit ingame, but I don't mind starting over when more people show up, I just wanted to see what was up

>>388384835
They did months ago and it flopped even harder because of all the exploitable bugs and bots.

Should we make a discord for this?

>>388385413
I don't fuck with Discord usually, but post a link and I'll join up. It'll be a lot easier to talk there.

>tfw elsword will never be good again

But I like playing MMOs 'alone'. You'll still bump into random people so the world still feels alive. Just don't force me to coordinate with small groups requiring a lot of communication to do endgame content.

>>388385631
Everyone join this, we'll use it from now on. I'll make a new thread if we barely have any players in, but this should be good for now.

>playing with /v/
fuck no, the idea of running through a mmo with a bigger group of people is nice but playing with /v/ is cancer especially in mmos, most games already have 4chan guilds anyway go check /vg/ to see what it would eventually descend into
