What MMO are you playing right now?
What MMO are you playing right now?
Nothing because they're all shit ATM.
What a useless depressing genre.
I hear you.
Worst thing is I want to play a mmo.
Unfortunately, yeah. I've been trying to find one, hoping that something pops out, but there hasn't been much.
Old school Runescape
It's this cool new one based on the Warcraft universe.
It's called World of Warcraft!
tfw you will never relive the golden age of MMOs in the early to mid 2000s. What a time to be an MMO player back then.
WoW's super fun with all the players on now, fresh specs, and a better transmog system.
Started playing Dragon Nest again, forgot how fun it was.
Swtor
Currently none. Considering RMTing about $1200 worth of shit off FFXIV.
Isn't it P2W now?
pretty much this screencap
I'm somehow having fun on korean mabinogi
Old school Mabinogi was great. Probably still is, but I got annoyed I couldn't rebirth often after a certain level.
I play Eve on occasion. Can't stand theme parks anymore.
Was looking forward to Albion but it looks like trash
It's still ok I guess, I'm not too bothered with the changes because it's understandable for a 12 year old MMO to spice things up and bloat the everliving fuck out of things to do.
I'm playing The Eternal Wait
it feels like it's limitless
>Was looking forward to Albion but it looks like trash
this is what I was thinking. I saw some 8v8, but people only had like 7 skills
Im playing Black Desert Online but it just recently announced some awful p2w mechanics they want to add and im panicking because this was the last k-MMO ive enjoyed in years but ;-; fuck everything
MMO's are a shit genre since half a decade ago.
I traded MMO's for multiplayer drop in drop out kind of games.
Warframe, Warthunder, Vindictus, some trading card game, etc..
It's just a better investment/fun ratio.
...
>calls MMOs shit
>lists fucking warframe as a 'good' trade
yeah no
str trk
...
I literally wrote why i consider it better than mmo's. I never said it was the epitome of videogame as an art form. No need to be a hypocrite about it.
I like what they did with classes and their sounds and animation. Still found I just don't want do anything there.
I'll wait for Legion and just do all these new quests, see some new content.
He's not wrong. WoW really made the western MMO community into a community flooded with what isn't the social type of player you'd call an MMO player.
No you didn't, all you typed out was "It's just a better investment/fun ratio."
But considering that warframes gameplay stirs from running really badly level scaled shit in order to grind for a crafting system that not even a facebook game or korean MMO has managed to pull out of their asses.
Literally timewalled crafting that is heavily barraged behind RNG and grind, unless you pay, what a fucking retarded concept and idea.
played Blade and Soul recently
it was a decent single player experience to play through the story and do the challenge solo dungeons
a good MMO well... not so much
uuuunnnnfffff
t h i i i c c c c c
How's TESO?
>Literally timewalled crafting
Holy shit don't remind me, 3 days to fucking craft a frame what a fucking joke.
...
Better than MOBAs and ARPGs.
Not enjoy PvP?
We could transmog farm if interested.
>all you typed out was "It's just a better investment/fun ratio."
And that's my point. You drop in, enjoy the gameplay, drop out. Can leave for a long time, go back.
MMO's nowadays are just "i swear there will be fun if you play some thousands of hours more".
Those game i listed you know right when you hop in if you like it or not.
Silkroad Online
on a private server obviously
>You drop in, enjoy the gameplay, drop out.
Faggot who visits the /vg/ general and has nearly 1500 hours in the game now.
No.
If you want to actually get content and new weapons, you have to constantly keep your sights on the game thanks to its shitty limited timed mission shit, ala PSO2 styled garbage.
Although I have no idea what kind of MMOs you're comparing the "drop in and have fun" kind of shit to so whatever.
Just wait for Camelot unchained.
I'm not going to discuss or defend Warframe in deep here. Fuck it, don't like it? Whatever man.
Just pointing that I prefer those kind of games nowadays because they sell by it's gameplay. The grind is there, yeah, but the grind is just to pass the time, but the sellpoint is the gameplay.
MMO's are just selling through grind gear or grind a mount or grind whatever. All these games have grind but it's a very different approach to multiplayer, an approach which i prefer...better presentation and better gameplay.
>mfw someone talks to me in an MMO
wow nice fairytale you fucking faggot
I storm /vg/ MMO threads constantly and draw quality art requests for free as long as someone posts a picture of them partying outside of an instanced dungeon
guess how many drawings I've had to deliver
The benefit of MMOs is a persistent realm, free roam, and an economy, not to mention roleplay and raiding.
Don't tell me what MMO are, i play this shit since 1998. And i tell you, i'm tired of MMO's nowadays. It's all the fucking same, i already saw it all already. Yeah, EVE is almost different but like i said, too much investment for too little fun, i rather keep playing "round" based games and move on. Until some actual breakthrough regarding MMO's come along, that's probably 10 years from now if we skip the hack & slash (a.k.a diablo likes) mmo's that are the horizon.
WoW BGs are literally that.
>thread title is "What MMOs are you playing right now?"
>I DONT LIKE MMOS ANYMORE BAWWWWWWW
wow thats great go play your shit
Some already exist, Path of Exile for example. I think there's 2 korean ones, Lineage something and another which i also forgot the name. I just keep it in my radar because at least it's SOMETHING right?
>recommend mmo's
>user gets triggered and go into argument
>throw a fit later
Don't start shit if you can't deal with it you faggot.
>>recommend mmo's
What MMOs have you recommended in this thread faglumps?
I keep playing Eve only because there's nothing else quite like it (persistent universe sandbox) but the gameplay is really pretty damn fucking shit.
It's a shame no one has tried to build an eve-like game with better mechanics, especially combat.
Star Citizen doesn't count. Maybe in a few years.
Oh let me guess, you'll greentext Warframe and Vindictus are not MMO's? We'll faglord, i already mentioned the new Lineage game and the other korean hack and slash which i'm sure some other user will know the name.
Oh shit I'm sorry didn't know you were anonymous #23 posting about fucking Lineage
>Warframe and Vindictus are not MMO's?
They literally aren't, even the official websites call em MOM's
A bit of Wildstar with a side of WoW, garnished with Rift
Maplestory
You can literally get hundreds of platinum a week just by running void missions and trading the prime blueprints/parts you get from there
Don't blame the game if you can't play the market.
You still find them by looking the term up and anyway, it's as close as it gets. It just lacks the massive aspects of it.
Skyforge was also another "mmo" lacking the first "M". They can float around the concept.
has there even been a MMO thats mouse based or tab target based in the last few years?
its all this action combat shit
>Some already exist
No, my point was that your in 'n' out gameplay is literally WoW BGs and arena.
Is City of Heroes the only MMO where everyone actually looked unique?
God damn I miss that game.
>tfw you will never get to be a force field defender
>tfw you have a deep hatred for koreans and NCsoft now
>tfw you will die before city of heroes comes back
With transmogging becoming a thing in most MMOs, people are beginning to look more unique. Wildstar has one of the better transmog system out there, though the prices of mogging some of the better looking gear and dyes can get really salty. Still, I'll rather pay a bit of extra to be able to transmog anywhere as opposed to going to a transmog npc every time I want to do it, not to mention that costumes you create stay on regardless of equipment changes that might occur.
>force field
>defender
I hate people like you, Kinetics, Radiation or get the fuck out.
Force Fields are for Controllers and Masterminds.
Fuck I miss my Masterminds
Pukeinabubble - necro/ff
merc/ff
ninja/ff
thug/trap
bot/trap
demon/thermal
DCUO also had a great costuming system. Wildstar is actually similar to it now what with how you can unlock the look of gear instead of having to keep the gear itself for the costume piece, but it still has problems where there can be duplicates.
>masterminds thinking they have any say on defenders
hero or nothing scum
>tfw want to buy legion and resub again but broke
just kill me
I miss Masterminds, so much.
I've been spending most my non raid time in wildstar doing pvp, it's a lot more active now and enjoyable since I finally geared up.
>tfw check the roster and see 2 pvpfags known for being unstoppable killing machines
>they're both on the enemy team
Dont get mad at me because your secondaries were always junk for damage and you picked the most donothing primary
Also, vigilante/rogue > hero/villain. access to all content all the time was good leveling
>Be Necromancer/Dark Miathsmashama build
>slot dark fluffy for -acc
>its so powerful
>but it prefers to be at a range
>take Team Teleport
>be the first person in the entire game to utilize Team Teleport I think
>most pets are melee
>dark fluffy's -acc aura gets into melee
>all zombies get into melee
>lich to this day still sucks dick
still pisses me off the tier 3 pet was so lackluster
Why was CoH the only MMO ever to include ragdoll physics? It really added to the whole superpowered individual motif to be able to punch a crook so hard he flew several meters backwards into a wall.
For people who decided to stay around, tree of savior is turning out pretty good. Could be better, but could also be a lot worse.
I am starting to miss RO already, though.
>tree of savior is turning out pretty good. Could be better, but could also be a lot worse.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
YOU MEAN THE GAME
THAT HASN'T HAD FUNCTIONAL PARTYING FOR 2 MONTHS NOW?
YEAH REAL FUCKING STELLAR
FUCK OFF /tosg/
This is the support IMC offer
This is from a bug report thread already 6 weeks old
I want more scifi mmos so I can have more scifi armors.
I'm playing it and I really like it
I play mostly pvp and people are cool, its about having the control of forts on cyrodiil, so if you want to take any you will have to ve on a group of many people
Shin Megami Tensei...IMAGINE it still lives on in my dreams OP, what a cozy MMO...
>Play JP SMT Imagine until it closed down
>tfw you could remember pubbies you saw because of the small community
I still remember being surprised seeing a BR in that version.
Fuuuuck the Japanese version just shut down this year too.
...
I downloaded Tibia recently, but haven't tried it out.
Is that game legit?
PSO on Ephinea.
It's actually one of my favorites.
There's too many walls if you're free to play so i recommend getting premium. It's been 6 year since i touched it so i have no idea how it is nowadays.
WHy are MMOs threads so popular now when Sup Forums doesn't even like MMOs and why shit on every single game with label MMO because Sup Forums only plays western shit and dislike all Korean trash.
Poor launch, much better now. Cummonity is something of an enigma. They're nicer than any other mmo I've played, but they mostly keep to themselves unless you force interaction.
BDO Didnt liscence for South Africa. Let it burn
The majority of mmo threads are WoW threads and there people just complain out of nostalgia or defending it. It's a battle that will never end, especially since a new expansion will launch soon
Taking a break from shilling for Overwatch to try to trick people to play the corpse of a good game? Blizzard must be paying you guys good.
My brother is playing Black Desert and enjoying it so far, I havent played it but it looked cool and full of possibilities as he explain them to me
Eve online
Great mmo and has a huge casual filter
What mmos have good housing systems? I'm already playing wildstar.
EvE Online. Waiting for Albion Online.
Which is?
Archeage is an sandbox mmo with housing, even ships on sea.
Lord of The Rings Online
A shame no one else does
It's also p2w and full of cashshop faggotry.
Your ability to pay real money. EvE is pay2win despite what eveshills say.
Elsword, only playing because of Eve
None
But I'm thinking of getting back into FFXIV at 4.0
Depending on what classes comes out
Has anyone here played Aion at all recently? They have a 5.0 patch out and apparently the last few big patches (3.0/4.0 etc) have massively reduced the grind and added a lot of quests to the game.
I used to play back in the oldschool 1.0 and 2.0 days and my god the fucking grind was atrochous. I remember playing sorc and it taking me hours to get from 33-34. I just couldn't handle the fact that I had to stay in one spot for hours and do the same thing over and over and over and over again.
But I liked the PvP a lot. There was a shit ton of skills and every class except Temp and SM were balanced.
I remember when it first came out and i mistakenly bought a lifetime sub for it... At least it was fun for a month or so.
It's because all the mmos are made for normies
So anyone who sinks any real time into the game will go through all the content in like one month
