100% Dead Wrong !!!
I know exactly what is killing MMOs.
What is killing them is catering to the solo player base that was never their original target base. Catering to players that thought those MMOs sure looked cool but wanted everything hand…
Originally posted by ValorLotD Two of the independently developed MMO's on the market have been targeting similar audiences in Artcraft's Crowfall and City State's Camelot Unchained. There seems to be a significant amount of disconnect with these t…

Funny every comment is about Lego and none about the others in the article and the author was questionning if this is going to succeed? It already has.
Lego is going to surpass Minecraft once they implement multiplayer and the interactive machine elements that are coming. Early access is smart. They get us involved in telling them what we want, do, or don't like from other games. They get the marke…

My favorite Everquest II experience was the original content. Leveling took some time and could not be achieved or even expected to come quickly so people grouped folks under max level frequently. I prefer the old eq2 because it was more of an adven…

I miss DAOC's crafting system. I had all the crafters and I was constantly doing orders and spellcrafting templates for customers. Made a ton of plat back in the day.
I agree with you. It was more realistic im…
The FFXIV system you praised so much for being unique and having a minigame or reactive crafting is actually ripped off from EQ2 and EQ2 did it better. I've crafted in both and EQ2's is better.
Originally posted by woodyfly It seems every mainstream game nowadays push out the "leveling hubs, pvp zones/battlegrounds" formula. The hardcore games are left in the dust and die off. Why are there no mainstream games with hardcore pvp that mimics…
First I don't feel Sci Fi and fantasy mmorgs should be on the same list as they are different genres. What passes for a Sci Fi mmorg tends to be more like a mmfps. As such I would restrict the list to fantasy mmorgs only and order them as follows:

None of that stuff in the article is important, where is the word on the player marketplace? How do you launch an MMO without some sort of auction house?
