Well today's news was very disappointing. I look forward to reading the autopsy reports of disgruntled SOE/DBG insiders in the coming months.

Definitely dead as we knew it. I suspect they're working on a relaunch with a lot of the sandboxy and emergent features they had originally planned stripped away. The world will probably stay voxel-based, with some randomly spawning dungeons and res…

Cyrael said: Definitely Eve Online. Pretty much everything everyone wants in a sandbox game is there, yet so many people simply can't seem to get into it due to a combination of the genre, ruthless pvp and brutal learning curve. I had s…

I really didn't care much for it. Just felt like there was nothing to be had but another surface-level MMO "experience" that wasn't interested in letting me be a part of the world, but just another "one-true great all powerful hero" to save the day …

I had high hopes that I would like it. I actually preferred Tera to BDO. I think Tera was a little more cohesive graphically and the combat, while less action-based, was more interesting and rewarding. I was most interested in BDO's sandbox elements…

I think the industry (at large, not only including MMOs) is optimistic about variety and innovation when it comes to gameplay, graphics, story, etc. However, and more importantly, publishers and investors are increasingly more and more pessimistic a…

GeezerGamer said: Lots of news about SWG's spiritual successor, but, it's pretty quiet in the EQN corner. Yeah, H1Z1 really brought me back LOL! Fucking Smedley. Of course his new game is a pixel art, theme park MMO and will be out in ea…

Combat-centric gameplay and progression. Really any kind of level-based progression, but especially combat-only level based progression, especially the class-based kind. Ugh. How many times do I have to play a ranger class that doesn't do any ranger…

Daikuru said: So many fantasy mmorpgs but no AAA cyberpunk mmorgp? come on! We really need one! Proper cyberpunk would be nice. Was Matrix Online kind of bordering on cyberpunk is some ways? You have a take on a dystopian future, hi…

The most important factors are the persistent online world and the ability for a meaningfully large sum of players to connect concurrently. Take a game like DayZ Standalone--it has a persistent online world and allows 50 players to connect (or at le…

Nothing wrong with transparency. Bending to the whim of every twat on your forums is a problem. Maybe the devs should stop with all the crowd funding expectations, the money grab cash shops, the early access nonsense, and the pixel graphic bullshit.…
