While I always recommend this game to anyone who talks about being interested in MMOs, and think it is by far the highest quality MMO I've played, this is the one aspect where I feel that the game falls flat on its face. The character creator is bla…

Amathe said: I am having trouble comprehending this. I played WoW at launch, and for several years thereafter. Maybe a lot has changed. But my experience of early WoW was coming off of other games, like EQ, where what people are calling "vanill…

I have most of the books (I would say "all" but some may have come out recently that I have not purchased). I thoroughly enjoyed most of them, particularly the night elf Trilogy by Richard Knaak. I have shared the series with several people, includi…

As someone who played at release of Vanilla WoW (was in college at the time) and am still MMOing today, I just have to say this: I attribute a LOT of Vanilla WoW's "success" to the fact that most of us had absolutely no clue wtf we were doing. Bef…

I dunno about anyone else, but I can answer for me: I have this game. It's sitting on my desktop right now staring at me. I played it some, did some quests and leveled a bit. I enjoyed my time there well enough, and can't really think of many bad t…

I will never understand why WvW is not considered PvP, in the respect of having the gear normalized. It makes absolutely no sense to me, and is easily the biggest detractor I have seen for the game. What could possibly have caused them to stop and s…

I don't mind that they want me to do all of the quests to get to the Heavensward stuff, because I would want to do all of them anyway, but I am not at all enjoying having to wait to unlock the new classes until I do all these quests. I know exactly …

Go check out some information on Elder Scrolls online. Minus 1 thing, it pretty much fits the bill for what you want. The company went out of their way to make the game as immersive as possible, sometimes at the cost of standard MMO social norms. Ga…

I tried ps4 last night. Graphics wise it felt very similar to my pc; show it next to my pc to any non gamer or person who just doesn't care about graphics as much as me and they couldn't tell you which was which. The controls on ps4 were fine as w…

I do agree that what the OP showed in their video is not a good thing vs Vanilla/BC, but only partly so. While I agree that a player being able to down the highest level boss in the game without any effort at all is kind of a downer, the OP focuses…

Originally posted by BailoPan15 Wait wait. Did you just say EVE has a trinity? As a long-time EVE player and supporter you should know better o.O When doing group PvE like incursions or sleepers, alliances have 1 tank, a few remote repairs and t…

Before GW2, I liked the idea of no Trinity. After GW2... not so much. I love everything else about that game and play it regularly even now, but I simply don't do dungeons anymore. Their weird pseudo-trinity of Damage/Support/Control, as opposed to …

Originally posted by Aelious Either PvE players can't stand that they can't go anywhere they want or PvP players can't stand they can't attack everyone because it limits their freedom. In my experience, I have found it to be something completely d…

Originally posted by 0effort The only worth F2P mentioning for PC is this and I will not say the name for suspense. Heh, I didn't even realize that Kingdom Under Fire 2 was an MMORPG. =D For some reason I thought it was more like Dark Souls. …

Originally posted by nariusseldon Persistent world is not that central an idea in MMOs anyway. Even WOW, while it has a persistent world, there are tons of non-persistent gameplay modes (like cross realm instanced dungeons). Yes and no. It do…

Part of the problem is that FFA pvp games take it too far, or have no purpose at all. There's rarely an in between. One of the most balanced systems that I saw was that, when you died, your inventory dropped. Not your gear, or what you are wearing-…

Originally posted by TechnoMonkey EVE online is a true FFA Sandbox game that has been sustainable for many years... it does NOT have a "PVE base" and it's the main example as to why your premise is wrong. I'm sick of PVEer acting like the sacred ove…
