So, I don't get it. We're you paid to write this? That sounds insulting, but I can't see any other reason for such an unobjective and biased article.
There is no such thing as an objective opinion. I don't resent writers h…

So you're saying that the endgame is to do the same thing every day? And that all the players at the same stage of the endgame do the same few things as each other? And that's supposed to be a breath of fresh air? How boring.

Participating in an MMORPG game economy is implicitly interacting with other players, which is something that single player games just can't simulate well. That's a reason to play an MMORPG where the economy is a major part of the game over a singl…
You know who is really lonely in MMORPGs? Players who are trying to do less popular group content and unable to find an appropriate group for it.
What MMORPGs really ought to do is to have something akin to Guild Wars henchmen available to fill ou…

It is mainly to thwart gold sellers that they have the no trade system.
Massively banning gold sellers and gold buyers is the main way to avoid gold sellers. Yet no one seems very interested to actua…
If you sell stuff on the auction house, do you get the lucent immediately? If so, then the game will (and probably already has) run into the same problem that Uncharted Waters Origin did with the same system. Gold spammers will:
1) Use stolen cr…
Your article wouldn't need that big of changes to describe Uncharted Waters Origin. In particular, the auction house uses the game's premium currency (red gems) and a lot of the best items (improved ships and anything from crafting or combine) have…
There's really only one thing that could revive their reputation. They need to fund their own game, launch it, and have it actually be good. But they're not even trying to go that route.

On top of this article, the fact that the Deck can be tweaked to play graphically heavy games like Red Dead Redemption 2, Elden Ring, Cyber Punk, Horizon Zero Dawn, etc. on medium-high settings and decent framerates makes it one of…
That so many different people have so many wildly different responses explains why developers haven't fixed the problem. If everyone agreed that the genre needs to change in this particular way, then developers could make it happen. When people pr…
I would expect that gear from different expansions gets rebalanced so that the best in slot gear from each expansion is comparable to each other. Once that is done, you can make it so that gear from one expansion only gives 2/3 of the normal stats …
Most older MMORPGs are impractical for a new player to get into now. You often have a very long slog through old content that is no longer maintained in order to reach the latest endgame. Sometimes developers try to make it shorter, but they mostl…

MMOs are not dying. They may be evolving, but not dying.

If secrets being handed out easily were the cause of death of MMORPGs, then the genre would have died 20 years ago, before WoW even launched. That can't be right.
Before kill 10 rats quests, it was go kill 1000 rats to gain a few levels before moving on to a different area that is good for such grinding. Making it faster to kill 10 of this and 10 of that, moving around a lot and doing different things, was a…
I gather that weapons are basically the game's version of classes. Can you readily level up with one type of weapon, then switch to something else at the cap? Or do you have to level up different types of weapons separately?
