    Aren't you cute. You actually think there is something worth playing ;-).

    Thanks for the laugh, it was hearty.

    well I had my hopes up that maybe so game had a major patch or there was something cool and new back in an older game

    Black Desert. It probably won't hold long term interest, but will probably be enjoyable for several months. Same with Snail Games upcoming titles.

    oh sure, well I've been playing pc games since 1993, my first mmo was DAOC, which I loved. I played alittle of blade and soul and enjoyed it but the content was coming out too fast. I've played about every major mmo out there that I know of. I enjoy all types of video games, however I really like playing with a group and being apart of a very friendly guild

    I read about BDO and did not like how they did the cash shop, I'm not sure if they fixed it but I don't want to support a company like that. I'll read up on Riders of Icarus.

    It's a tossup between Overwatch and Pokemon Go right now if you go read the news.

    Since you liked DAoC you may like what Albion Online has to offer.
    Camelot Unchained as well (Since you like DAoC)
    O.o
    I don't think Albion Online has much in common with DAoC at all... one is an old school isometric sandbox MMO with full looting and open world PvP... while DAoC was all about RvR, not mindlessly ganking and looting your own faction.

    I don't think Albion even has RvR, does it? Unless counting the territory control thingy. Now if he had said that he liked old school UO before Trammel/Felucca, then I'd say hell yeah, go for Albion.

    Also, what didn't you like about BDO's cash shop @darnapkin?

    I do not mean Albion is like DAoC I just mean if he likes PvP he may like Albion. The PvP is a core to the game. Territory controlled PvP does not mean it is just a mindless gang fest.
    Ah, I see. Thanks. xD

    EVE. It was the MMORPG to play before you left, it is the one to play now, it will be the one to play in the future.

    But sure, BDO, Overwatch or Witcher 3 are all good too.

    I am not sure what you read about the cash shop, but the Western version of BDO is possibly one of the least p2w games out at the moment. 

    My favorite group based pvp game is ESO atm (has pretty good pve as well) so could be worth considering. The developers are quite active and the game has really changed/improved since launch imo.

    BDO is a way to go OP. Cash shops fine, no worries.

    Not much have happened the last 6 months. BDO is the only thing I can think of.

    Basically, what was worth playing 6 months is still worth playing, what wasn't then still suck.
  • jusomdudejusomdude Member RarePosts: 2,706
    One thing that really kills BDO for me is the annoying graphics pop in. It's severely distracting. IMO they should have went with less detail and less things to just pop in.

    ESO has been getting a lot of positive press lately. The game seems to be on an upward trend. Great if you like stories and casual exploration.

    SWTOR is also doing well, both financially and in terms of future content. I'd recommend that if you enjoy the traditional WoW experience.

    GW2 is my personal favourite. If you played it in the past and enjoyed it, the expansion is worth giving a try.
