When will we ever get another good MMO, Sup Forums?

When will we ever get another good MMO, Sup Forums?

RE:START is coming.

What's this?

I fucking miss these non-themepark MMOs

Ragnarok, Tibia, Runescape, etc. Now everything is a MMO clone where you spend 100 hours doing filler quests so you can get to the max level to do raids or whatever. Tell me, why do developers even think that this filler content is a good idea? I don't know what was the last MMO where I got to the "meat" of the game, I always got bored in the middle of the leveling process.

What happened to the MMOs where the game started right when you created your character? That you could go anywhere and kill anything? Meeting people in leveling areas, instead of a barren wasteland since 90% of the players are max level. What the hell happened?

WarpPortal is making a new server and basically they will start from 0, like ver 1.0, and slowly add new updates the same way the game did the first time.

So it's a progressive private server?

Except it's all keknewal mechanics.

S H I T

I tried the Disgaea demo on the Switch. i don't know anything about those games, but it made me think how cool Ragnarok would be on the Switch

What's bad about renewal mechanics?

yeah, just like that.

As far as understand they will start with pre-renewal and slowly move to newer updates.

>As far as understand they will start with pre-renewal
Wrong. They are just starting with 1-1 classes and early content, working up to 1-2 etc. But everything will be keknewal formulas from start to finish.

ff14 is not theme park

memba when MvPs didn't all heal/super agi etc

I played it and it pretty much was.

Classic RO had some wonky balance, like acid demo's damage formula being absolutely retarded and combo monk being completely worthless. Aside from new classes and a higher level cap, what about Renewal's balance made things worse? I ask as someone who has never played renewal before.

I started playing a little after 2-2 classes were introduced, so not really.

Ok, but what's wrong with that? I understand people don't liking 3rd classes but the stat balance was not that much of a big deal. Lots of older builds remained the same.

Every server is packed with multiboxing Filipinos

Renewal is fucking shit and killed the game. jpRO hated it so much that they literally remade the game's mechanics. If you want an essay on why, just google it.

>If you want an essay on why, just google it.

I'm ok with renewal mechanics so no thank you. Also jRO was doing its own thing way before renewal.

>Also jRO was doing its own thing way before renewal.
Wrong.

>I'm ok with renewal mechanics
Because you're an idiot and suck at the game.

When is this coming out?

I just started Blade and Soul. I got to the max level in two days doing story missions.

>Because you're an idiot and suck at the game.
Sure

Soon™

Secret World Legends is about to come F2P

Just quickly set up e/rAthena and play by yourself. I usually get at least a couple hours of playtime before crying myself to sleep.

Flee is messed up, casting time is fucking retarded (No more 0 cast), skills are plain stupid, all of them can easily 1hko everything with little to no effort, crusader class is even more broken...

Overall... the skill cap is highly reduced, back in the day you could snap asuras, occult dance people to death, the switching mechanics for arrows and knfes where smooth as fuck, and so on...

JUST

>tfw no clone of mortal online that's actually good

Everyone got some form of Asura Strike. But most of them were AOE and didn't have any downside.

As renewal went on P2W shit was added too. Now on official servers it's impossible to play unless you've invested thousands of dollars in the game, because the people who have are literal gods who can 1 shot anything in the game including enemies with hundreds of millions of Hp.
