If there's a majority of users enjoying it now more than when it came out, it's not shilling.
Look at the steam reviews now as opposed to EA launch. Very positive as opposed to mixed. They improved the game obviously.
This is the best MMO like game launched this year, if you have another contender do say.
Perhaps the Rift relaunch?
Certainly not SotA.
I would say Rift is a MMO, so it can't be the best 'MMO-like', also not sure any of these relaunch/reboot/classic can be thought of as a new game. However if you had not played any of the MMOs that had re-whatever this year, I would definitely look there before CE. SOTA has not even launched, still in Ever Early Access.
Jeez...we can't come to an agreement on these forums on what a MMO is, now you want me to discern what is MMO-like?
OK, I'll bite, in this new category I'll nominate Sea of Thieves as a possible contender.
Since we're spitting hairs, technically CE launched last year, I ignore weasel word definitions like early access especially if a game is being "sold"
Also SotA now officially calls itself "released", though we both know, not really.

Yes, SOTA was released...into early access as we discussed before maybe one day it will launch and we can actually decided if we want to play it. This is CE's proper launch and I am splitting hairs this morning. SoT got 69 on Metacritic, I think CE will beat that but not by much.
Plus I have always been a big Conan fan, they really just have to stick that world on the label and I am keen to have a look.

SotA launched out of early access 27th of march.
Ok I promise I will not make any more jokes about that, it has launched...even though it had no wipes since last year. This is it, I take their word for it.
