I haven't played New World since release, and I never got to max level in the first place. I found the lack of content around level 30 to be enough of a deal breaker that I would rather not play and play something else instead. So, when I heard abou…

I think the problem many PC New World players is having with AGS is that AGS is being dishonest. A clear message from AGS would be "We are launching New World on consoles and want to rebrand New World as an ARPG, because we think it'd appeal to a la…

olepi said: I wonder how much technology and cost has to do with fewer good MMO's being made? My first MMO was DAOC in 2001, it took 18 months for 25 devs to create it at the cost of $2.5 million. Today those kind of numbers would be a smallis…

The seasonal model Blizzard uses for WoW is part of the reason I quit that game. Every season, new gear rewards make the previous tier obsolete, making participating in the last tier unnecessary. This means that if you aren't there for the beginning…

I see games as a fun hobby, and I only play games that I find fun. MMORPG's used to be my favorite genre and my go to. However, I haven't adapted with the bulk of the MMORPG community. You see, I began MMORPG's with DAOC in 2021 and because of…

In my 20's, I had all the time in the world and didn't respect my time. I grinded for levels and respawns first in DAoC, then in SWG, CoH, and then on to newer games like WoW. As I got older, I started to respect my time more. Especially once I bega…

I quit D4 before getting to lvl 30. I hated the level scaling, the lack of transformative spec variety, and no class that appealed to me (Paladin or heavy armored battlemage). Last Epoch, OTOH, I put 300 hours into it. I loved the build variety in t…

Most modern MMORPG's are just slight alterations and, in some features, upgrades from the previous generations of MMORPG's. So, I'd rather Riot take several more years and release something worthy of bringing the genre to the next generation. The c…

I was a hardcore player back in the 2000's, but I've been a casual gamer for around 13 years now. When I play MMORPG's, which I seldom do anymore, I play them solo or using the group finder. The primary driver for me not playing MMORPG's much anymo…

I never heard of this game, but the screenshots make the game look good. Is it a MMORPG or a SPG?

I'm never interested in survival like games, where you have to gather and craft everything. I have a real job and don't care to adopt a second one for fun. How is exploration and combat in the game? I'm assuming there isn't any story, which is fine …

I used to think Vanilla through WoTLK were the original classic games as well, but after playing their classic releases, I no longer think so. Classic Vanilla played a lot different than any expansion after it due to how slow the leveling was, how i…

Gorwe said: They are bringing Cata back? I personally wouldn't because that's no longer Classic. What makes the game Classic? After seeing the games relaunched as classic versions I think WoTLK has more in common with retail than it does…

WoW is simply, and sadly, the best overall MMORPG on the market. I was reminded of this over the last two years when I re-tried GW2, ESO, FF14, New World, and LoTRO. I've played practically every subscription or B2P based MMORPG that's released sinc…

I haven't been excited about an expansion since Legion announced Artificat Weapons and Class Hall campaigns. Delves gives me a progression track that is challenging and offers Heroic raid gear by the end. I don't have the schedule or the time …
