Of course, I have a simple solution to this, which I'm sure could be implemented with minimum effort from developers.
When creating a group, there can be a special option which if enabled would basically make the game pause each time the narrator …
Heh, sounds like STALKER is more of an RPG than any of the carebear MMORPGs on the market today. It allowed for full loot, and still I hardly ever picked up anything other than bullets from enemies, simply because I couldn't carry it all. Same with…
Oh c'mon guys! Dude's just got WoWed, he's a got a brand new shiny package with WoW inside and wants to share his happiness with us! So stop being angry, let's celebrate together, and let's talk about WoW, and how much we love WoW and like to play i…
Are this and similar posts even for real? I don't want to sound rude,
but where are you from, people? Moon? The best way to start working on
a MMROPG alone without any knowledge and experience is by buying a
clue.
So there, buy a clue, then come …
I concur, the game is really boring. It doesn’t feel like a continuous
world, and there’s not much going on in terms of adventure or discovery – get to
a new zone, keep killing the same two or three monsters over and over again
until a series of loc…
Age of Conan, but before that I'd like to check out Roma Victor.
Unfortunately due to time constraints I can't afford to look forward to to multiple MMOs, so I'll be a very selective, hard to please consumer
Hehe, just make sure your college level research paper doesn't contain as many typos as your initial request post. And don't forget to perform some statistical analysis of the responses that you get, to be certain that they adequately represent the …
Embedded software engineer at a defese company. Link-11 crypto stuff, specialized real time operating systems, etc. They don't let me to work on the really fun stuff though, because I'm new, young and haven't obtained clearance yet. Not really my cu…

Without balanced, well thought out PVP a MMORPG feels castrated. That's pretty much every MMORPG on the market today.
Kudos on removing "multiplayer" from MMORPG, keep on soloing.
So you're saying that ganking is a real problem with free PvP? I agree, but it's only because almost always the PvP is not designed as an integral gameplay component, but rather as an afterthought that's thrown in at the last moment in addition to P…

ROTFLOL OMFG DUDE!! Are you serious? Cowardice? it's not like the other guy in the game is gonna come to my house and kick my ass if I lose. Hell, it's not like any of…
WoW is nonstop, tedious grind. Go collect 5 zevra hooves, go collect 6 zevra tails, go collect 10 bear pelts - what kind of quests are these? Why collect the garbage? The world is static, it doesn't change and your actions don't affect it any way.

I agree. I don't understand what is going on with the genre.
Every single new game is almost the exact copy of the previous - you have your
third person view, you have a bunch of icons you can click on to make your
character fight, you have your cha…
WOW, for real. I was in the same boat as you, untill I played the 10 days free trial. The game is light hearted, easily accessible and fun. Goes well along with the college, too. A very good game.

Looking at the front page poll on this website I was stunned at the amount of people who play MMORPGs for "the social aspect".
It really made me think, because is that not truly the only thing that makes these games uniqe?…
