Do you all agree on the order of preference? 
Comments
honestly i don't agree with any of these, How can u say these are the top 5 mmo's if they haven't been released yet.
LOL- totally agree.
This is why we cannot have nice things. All hype and zero substance THEN when the people who hyped the hell out of something actually 'play the damn thing; they feel personally compelled to defend their 'pre hype' so they appear 'right' .
Propaganda and hype in 2013 is something that I never could have imagined 30 years ago. People actually feel personally moved to defend their choices as if a 'knock' on a game is a 'knock' against them personally. They actually 'relate' to a game (usually the idea) in a way that is both scary and funny at the same time.
Where is the "clearly" stated on this forum?
The thread says "Top 5 MMOs...."
Nowhere does anything here say "anticipated" that I saw.
-Regardless, if this is about "anticipated" MMOs I would agree.
Blizzard basically scrapped their existing TItan and is going back to the drawing board, I don't expect to see it in 2016, much less 2014.
There are good reasons why no mmo very similar to WoW has been successful. With the new WoW expansion updating graphics and adding player housing Wildstar really has nothing to differentiate itself other than 40 man raids and improved combat, I really don't see that getting them anywhere.
I have to agree although I did not know they scrapped Titan.
WOW (as much hate as it gets) is a 'good' game and thus far nobody has made a clone that is 'better ' than the original (NOTE: I personally hate WOW but can still recognize a quality game that was done very well...)
Blizz would be better off upgrading graphics and continuing with WOW- Had I been playing for 8 years I would want to continue the journey with updated graphics rather than start over.
Why would you call yourself Main Vein? You know that's slang for penis, right? So..Penis Games? Not a great vibe there, heh.
That is kind of the whole point... haha, sorry if it offends anyone.
On another note, the title on the video states highly anticipated games - and it would be my top 5 in anticipation/hype. Apparently some disagree with the order, but really, they are the top 5 most hyped games currently, am I right?
There is some decent information on Lineage 3 out there, actually, if you start digging. Cool combat style, massive castle sieges *was Lineage not the creator of the castle siege? Or an actual castle siege that worked fluently? ... I mean, it was 1998 after all.
EQN/L is one of my tops, for sure, but I have been delving into Wildstar quite a bit and the combat system is unreal. Other than that is looks alot like WoW... which is what someone else stated earlier.
Oh no worries, I wasn't offended. Just thought the name was kind of, dumb. Sorry, heh.
OMG - I thought it was a genius name... not only does it flow, but it's funny. We are kind of dumb anyways, though, so thanks
lol
Back on topic, though - What MMO is your most anticipated?
haha, I see what you did there.
LOL!
I was going to click on your vid link but thought I'd read the comment first.
Read the "main vein" comments and decided not to watch the video, sorry.
My understanding is that the original lineage 3 team team left NCsoft to create TERA (and were promptly sued). Then NC said screw it and made B&S instead of Lineage 3, and that Lineage Eternal is meant to be more the successor of Lineage 1 (Which is still wildly popular in Korea) rather than in the style of Lineage2. Considering they haven't gotten B&S to the Western market, unless you know how to make a Korean account I wouldn't anticipate seeing Lineage Eternal anytime soon.
Well, that is unfortunate... it is only a name... that is like judging a book by it's cover.
As far as the above comment - Lineage 3/Eternal is the next in the Lineage series, which is the first Lineage, yes. Did you play this game? I think L3 will be a huge success.
I'm now desensitized to penises, because of the internet. THANKS OBAMA!
That is what I thought, exactly! lol.
Well Brainiac, it's in the first 20 seconds of the linked video, which is what he's peddling.
Personally, I like to peruse all the relevant information before I critique a post but that's just me.
Not particularly anticipating any MMOs now. EQN seems to have the most interesting iteration of ideas, but Wildstar has the coolest sense of humour. However I didn't care much for the original EQs, and Wildstar is coming via NCSoft, may they rot in their own special hell.
My next MMO stop will probably be something in a smaller scale, as one of those is a bit more likely to match up more to my preferences.
If you are holding out for the perfect game, the only game you play will be the waiting one.
I didn't much care for Skyrim so while being an MMO, the game has no appeal to me.
Meanwhile, my friends were huge fans of the ES series but hate MMOs. They have no interest in the game either.
They think their catering to 2 sets of player while their actually just alienating both.
Wow... that was actually well put. I guess as far as MMO's go though, and hype, ESO is WAY up there... these games always get SO much hype and end up dissapointing though
Honestly... thanks.
