imageThe Best Online Games of E3 2017 - Anthem Columns

I’m not often impressed with E3, but this year’s show was pretty damn good. There were welcome surprises through the course of the event, from the return of beloved IPs to entirely new reveals. More interestingly, though, there was a pretty sizeable presence for online games. Not quite MMOs, but as close as we can get these days.

Read the full story here

    The era of MMORPG's is gone. There is no suprise here @DMKano .

    Other then that, I look forward for Sea of Thieves and Anthem ( AND THE NEXT BIG MMO, WHENEVER HE MIGHT COME !!! )

    MMO's are too much work to create, as E3 shows the games where the real moneh is!

    RIP AAA MMO, if that ever existed xD

    Anthem and Destiny 2. Those are going to soak up a lot of my time!

    Absolver is the online game that peaked my interested the most. Sea of Thieves might be interesting, so does Anthem, but it kinda put me off with that "Division level of false advertising" looking trailer.

    Anthem looked sweet

    I was expecting MHW to at least look halfway decent but it just looks like a higher res version of the DS games. Oh well I may try anyway.

    Sea of Thieves is on my radar. Rest are a bit meh. I want MMORPG. Rest I get bored of since I feel lonely :) Darkfall is what I am spending my time with currently though.

    Monster Hunter World seems the most interesting especially since it has dragons dogma gameplay with environmental interaction.

    Monster Hunter (PC) to kill Dauntless :-)

    Anthem reminded me of a "War Machine RPG" :-) War Machine refers to the Jim Rhodes Iron Man armor for the uninitiated ;-)

    MHW was hype. I'm down to shoot dinos with a chaingun.

    Wouhou Monster Hunter game on PC!!!!!

     I really dig Anthem art direction and mech-travelling features. The weapon combat was very Mass Effect Andromeda to me too (The Colossus was basically using Nova), well minus the mortar digging a huge hole in the ground and that Macross Missile Massacre missile launcher. Waiting for more information, everyone is going "Destiny clone", but so far the website and trailer says open world (up to) 4 co-op game, not a MMO(lite) like Destiny.

    Anthem looks amazing! Can't wait to play Anthem, Destiny 2, and Star Citizen (whenever the heck it's gonna be released!). Also I was thinking about getting Elite: Dangerous but... keep holding off until they implement being able to walk around as a character and not just a ship or buggy. Could add sooo much more immersion that way, similar to Mass Effect Andromeda (which is fantastic, played through the entire game, all story and side quests done, 95hrs) =D

    That is exactly what I thought when watching it. However I will most likely shell out the money for this and enjoy it anyway. I already like the setting way more then Destiny, and I enjoyed The Division even knowing it kinda bombed from them over hyping and downgrading.

  • RobbgobbRobbgobb Member UncommonPosts: 674
    Anthem makes me feel like I can't trust it because feels too much like what Watch Dogs reveal was like for me. That is just my opinion though.

    Monster Hunter has my interest. That it is on something I enjoy playing on makes me eager to get more information on it.

    The Crew 2 might draw me in. Will have to see more information.

    The kraken in Skulls and Bones made it for me for interested in a game. Can PvE or PvP or both looks like a good plan to me.

    I wouldn't pre-order and still like waiting awhile for the dust to settle before I buy a game now. That said, I missed all the problems with The Division by waiting and I enjoy playing it now. It takes about a year after launch and patches to see the real game.

    very interested in Monster Hunter (PS4 and PC for me). Finally will be able to play it with dual sticks without the less-than-optimal rubber tit on the new 3ds. Also better graphics and a big screen? a big bonus.

    Anthem also got my interest. The others not so much although i might play Sea of Thieves if its still alive by the time i get an XBOX (X Box One X)

    Not unexpected as MMO's kept moving more and more to single player games.

    You can only ever refrain from preordering and wait for reviews. This applies to any game.

    If only they really make Monster Hunter MMORPG ( full MMO ) and bring it to the western, oh boy.

    So What Now?

    Anthem knocked me out.

    Anthem might be fun, but the trailer/demo felt way to scripted. Will keep my eye on it, and buy a month after release if is actually good. Destiny 2 also looked awesome, but shamefully nothing new when I saw people playing the demo.
