Let's face it 2017 was pretty abysmal when it comes to MMORPGs. The year end stuff is going to be padded with nonMMOs and expansions along with all the kickstarter MMOs that have been on lists for years now.

Good luck with that.

    Yeah and I think classic WoW was the best news all year. What does that say about 2017 tho? If you have to list emulators and private servers...

    Yeah seriously. Game reviewers still get hyped about WoW clones every time a new one is announced and we're supposed to care about their opinions?

    A note to game reviewers. After over a decade of clones there is only one question I care about:

    "How is this game different than all the other games already on the market?"

    If you don't have a good answer to that question I don't care about the game or your review of it.

    I am nearly positive that those so called reviewers are either paid by marketing departments of said games or are heavily persuaded in the form of special lunches, events, give away, journalism events and the like

    I can hear it now, "2017.  Wait til next year."

    Logic, my dear, merely enables one to be wrong with great authority.

    I agree, I wouldn't like to have to create any lists / awards for the MMO genre this year, but then I've felt the same for the last 5 years or so. This year is just a bit worse as I don't think we've had any western MMOs release, so you're limited to eastern MMOs and expansions. 


    If you broaden your lists to include any online multiplayer games, or just games in general, then its not so bad. The games industry as a whole isn't doing too badly - the RPG genre is pretty stale but other genres are having more success.

    Well, the RPG genre itself did see D:OS2 release (I know, just one release, but so good a title as to make up for it), so it's really been MMORPGs specifically.

    Oh well.  There's always next year.

    I think that you illustrate one of the major problems in the industry right now, too. That is game state. All but one of the games you mention here is in some state of test. Now, I'll cut you off at the pass, I understand how games these days utilize Early Access. HOWEVER!! That doesn't change the fact that I cannot tell you, at a glance, what the state of the game is or what features that are selling features to ME are actually in the game. Now, I'm ok with that in many cases. However, that doesn't change the fact that you're buying into something  that is somewhat nebulous. 

    In the context of this discussion, I don't know how those fit in. Are we going to start awarding GOTY awards to games in alpha? I think that Early Access only complicates the process of selecting things like "Most <insert award> of 2018" that much more difficult, since predictability of these indie titles approaches impossible.

    They are fun.

    So ok, then fine....in a few years it will be the best era of gaming ever when these titles 'come out'.....rolls eyes

    No Idea actually I thought it was released. I normally dont pay attention to that, I just play what is fun. as a side note did you know the top early access games while they were in early access (not completed) sold more copies then Witcher 3 on all platforms?

    To me, the RPG genre seems to have been in trouble for quite a while. We seem to be restricted (mostly) to old school isometric types, there really hasn't been much else. We get the occasional big RPG, like Witcher 3 or DA:I, but they are few and far between and often heavily story focused. 

    So, if you're like me and don't enjoy isometric RPGs, especially ARPGs, you are really limited in choice. If you don't like story either (which I don't), you're basically shit outta luck.

    but you also understand that an indie game (x3) that isnt even released yet and has nearly zero advertising should not even come remotely close to the same orbit of sales as Witcher 3, let alone more than

    I have noticed that this site among others, has increased the number of awards given out. But every awards site/event does that. From the Oscar's to the Olympics, the drive to be ever bigger is always there.

    Looking forward to seeing what gets best Tiny Soloplayer Online Game from this years MMORPG awards. :D

    If you are rolling your eyes, you obviously aren't getting "it". That's great that you, someone spending 20 hours a week talking about games (speculative), knows what is good and what isn't. The point is that the reason that it's a bad thing is that these games aren't actually being exposed to casual gamers at the same level. That's what you're not getting. 

    I'm not disputing sales and I'm not bashing these games, like you think that I am, I'm just saying that, in the context of this article, it complicates the job of critics to say what's good and what's not good in any given year because release dates are no longer predicted. 

    Also, the release cycle is MUCH different. Take a look at Ark, for instance. Sold MILLIONS!!! in early access, what were the sales after release? Very few. So, in it's release year, should it get GOTY consideration? All the hype behind the game is gone. In fact, I'd be surprised if many critics didn't just forget it had even released. This is what I mean by complicated. Ark was awesome..... but it was awesome in alpha, all that love kinda melted away before release.

    umm  Steam is not Zero advertising , its the Biggest Digital Platform by far , And when they put a game up for sale like that it is front and center to anyone whos tags remotley match anything they have played similar before ...Hence why they sell so many units

    You realize as a side note they sold more units because they frequently give away there game for the price of a large bag of Skittles thru Steam sales.......................just sayin
    yes..



    but you also understand that an indie game (x3) that isnt even released yet and has nearly zero advertising should not even come remotely close to the same orbit of sales as Witcher 3, let alone more than
    umm  Steam is not Zero advertising , its the Biggest Digital Platform by far , And when they put a game up for sale like that it is front and center to anyone whos tags remotley match anything they have played similar before ...Hence why they sell so many units
    I didnt say 'zero' I said nearly zero marketing.

    I mean come on are you honestly trying to compare a Steam autospinner to the multimillion dollar marketing campagin of Witcher 3?

    why do you guys work so hard to make up any excuse remotely possible to not look at options?

    your doomed for despair if you complain about the bucket of games you are looking at and also refuse to look outside that same box.

    Please do not respond to me, even if I ask you a question, its rhetorical.

    lmao ... *wonders how many units of Witcher 3 Steam and GOG could sell in 24 hours for same 7.99 that those indie titles sold for ... *

        and for the record i have played and owned 7DTD since its first day in Steam ... We look at options .. you are misguided tho.. And to assault every thread with your same agenda is troubling ... get a grip on your self ...

    again..
    3 titles that are:
    1. indie small budget
    2. early access (as in not even completed)
    3. extreemly low marketing budget that pales in comparision to Witcher 3

    vs

    1. one of the most popular titles in the so called AAA universe by a rather large margin.
    2. sold on multiple platforms
    3. HUGE marketing budget, which includes reviews on pretty much every single game journalist site ever.

    Sales of those three indie titles should not have even come remotely CLOSE to Witcher 3.

    but regardless of all that manure, who cares? you going to play anything other than games to complain about? of course not. Just sit there looking at the only 10 acceptable games in ones universe, complain about the state of gaming and ignore people who say there are fantastic options....brilliant!

    lol ... so misguided ...................

      1. If they sold so many its not such a limited budget ( and W3 was funded by KS) also
       2. EA means nothing in this anylonger we all know EA titles can sell well there are dozens of examples ..
       3.. you talk as if you know what W3 marketing Budget was .. You have no idea .. And i dont think its near what you are exaggerating

                 but you just keep assaulting every thread with your agenda , it will catch up to you ..
