  • Ungood said: Kyleran said: Ungood said: Thanos. Which ever one you want to go with, and any book, movie, or story I think would also work. But mainly the Marvel Universe Mad Titian. Not a bad choice, but if you want…
  • So, bad or semi-useless flavor NPCs? let's see... Tax Collector - if you enter a town controlled by a guild you must pay a tax! This guy will wonder around looking for those who haven't paid up. The goal is to avoid him. If he finds you you'll get …
  • Either can work. It depends on how they're implemented. A challenging single boss fight would be good if the boss randomizes its attack pattern more often. Perhaps it changes based on the number of players or their classes when they enter the dung…
  • Kyleran said: "Early Access," especially when charging players for it. I feel it gives less incentive for the Devs to promptly finish their development, which is why many titles are dragging on forever.  ^ that.   It's all backwards…
  • I'm against having a full survival game style hunger system as it would be too tedious for a MMORPG and detract from the other aspects of the game. However, a system that makes food and drink more useful than a weak temporary buff or just another ki…
  • Ok, so we established there won't be a WoW2 as long as the current version of WoW is still profitable as it would cannibalize the current WoW population and Blizzard would essentially be competing with themselves. Then why WoW Classic? WoW class…
  • Star Citizen, as it is now, seems like nothing more than a carrot on a string dangled in front of their fans to keep the hype going for a game that will never be finished and probably was never intended to be finished.  Where's the motivation to fin…
  • If the "useless vendor" in question has a name, a personality and a well thought out backstory that gives insight to why they won't even talk to player characters then it's perfectly fine with me.   I'd be extremely impressed if when you tried to t…
  • Back in the day I didn't expect that other forms of social media would make MMOs of the future so antisocial. When I played my first MMO it was a totally new thing. Before that your gaming community was restricted. For multiplayer gaming, you eithe…
  • A total sandbox without any pre-defined story, quests or direction probably wouldn't work. Face it, people these days are too used to being told what to do, where to go, and what to think. Randomly drop them into a world with no direction or set goa…
  • The peak of MMO hype, in my opinion, had to be during the early days of WoW's popularity when other developers were racing to develop the next "WoW killer". During that time there was an explosion of overly hyped games being advertised. Most of thes…
  • When playing a pet class I don't like sitting back and having my pet do everything like a Pokemon trainer does. Instead I like to have my pet complement my own fighting abilities to where we work together seamlessly to defeat enemies. Imagine Ash …
  • In every survival game I've played the difficulty was the hardest at the very beginning and got gradually easier till the end where it was easymode boring.  Once you have and can craft all the best items, have the map explored, know exactly where to…
  • If I said character creation or design played no role in my desire to continue with a game I'd be lying. I tend to look at it like buying a car or getting a tattoo. You're going to have to live with that character for a very long time so it's better…
  • Great guide! There's just one problem: the Japanese client wont let you create a character even with the Japanese language pack installed with Windows 7 Ultimate. I don't know about the other versions of windows but I assume they have the same pro…
  • Originally posted by Krelnor Would YOU play a MMORPG, where what YOU do affects the entire world? Would a game where what YOU do affects the entire world, interest YOU? (If you could, please comment on what you decide so people know your reasonin…
  • Let's see..  MMOs with guns?  Aside from the already mentioned, There is Starwars Galaxies (if a blaster is what you consider a gun), The Matrix Online (modern day setting with assault rifles, shotguns, pistols and SMGs),  Anarchy Online (another fu…
  • Originally posted by ghostinfinit 1) This game requires a large time commitment for money as well as xp.  The positive of that is it truly feels like an accomplishment when you get to endgame. That can be either good or bad depending on how things …
  • After playing many games... Graal Online, Redmoon Online from the beta until the final death of Diosa server (about 4 years there). and other free/cheap games of that same type... I began playing AO in the early part of 2004  ...and I loved it! …
  • For the patch, I had to manually copy/paste the contents of each patch folder to the corosponding named game folder. If you do that and make sure you do that for all the subfolders too it should work. A more detailed explaination: when you unzip…
