Hey guys, looking for some recommendations. Back in high school and college (near 20 years ago), my friends and I got in to our first mmorpg (Asheron’s Call). We zombified ourselves and nearly gave up all contact with the o…

I honestly don't know why PvP got dragged into the discussion. Exploration games just need an interesting world to explore. If you need combat, your world mustn't be that interesting.
A great ex…

Most MMOs are boring, simplistic, time/money sinks that provide an inferior experience in nearly every way except being concurrent multiplayer and they're losing ground fast to "single player" games that are now incorporating more …

It is a long one, over 3 hours long, but the Jethro Tull intro music got me smiling. I'll be watching at more length soon.
Thanks for sharing this find. I still play NWN and even NWN 2.

What is more important to you? How you level or the end result of you level? Journey vs. Destination.
I would say both are about equal to me. I can't play MMO where the leveling is boring test to see if I deserve …

MMORPG's as a genre are in a terrible place at the moment, because it's become crystal clear that the ROI on these types of lengthy projects is dismal compared to other genres.

Nice post, @VestigeGamer
Escape, Another good word. I think this is why I disli…

We all have that moment. A MMO comes along that a lot of people are really really into but for some reason it does not speak to you. No matter how much you try and try you just cant get into it. You watch other people play it, h…

I'm not sure if developers "dislike" housing, just may not see it as "winnable." Of those that desire it, there is no agreement about how to implement it. I can't say as I blame them.
I've been giving Banished a bit of time lately. Still trying to get the "hang of it." It's frustrating at times, but I keep at it. My people will thrive! (eventually...)
I really have no idea. I played this game back in 2001 or 2002. The way I imagined games in 20 years back then is nothing like they are now. Nothing like they have become.

The gaming market seems flooded. People no longer have to stick to the same game and it's best and worst parts because it was the only game in town or one of a very few. Now I've moved on to treating gaming like a buffet and…
