I have been saying for 2 years that if Amazon really wanted money, they would take New World, fix the technical issues with duping and whatever else and then reskin it as their LOTR prequel and kick it out the door. Kind of surprised it took them this long. There's no way this won't just be a New World reskin. It's already confirmed to be the same dev team.

I think that was the plan all along, New World felt like a rough draft of the big IP mmo they wanted to do

I think SWG probably is the mmo that tried the hardest to do that with the original iteration of their Jedi mechanic

isn't that completely normal for MMOs?

Not really, EQ and WoW (the archetypal class based mmos) have multiple 1H and 2H options for most classes. EQ in particular has some weird melee weapons like the Rod of Annihilation that only casters can use. Recently melee has become a popular leveling spec for non-twink necromancers on project 1999

Only way to put out a good Warhammer mmo would be doing Age of Reckoning again but with more of the races (skaven, lizardmen, etc) and finished cities.

I think it was confirmed by a LinkedIn post that it's a 40k game (but now I can't find any reference to that post, so maybe not)

Devs have been deathly allergic to asymmetric multiplayer since like ... AvP2? Was that really the last one?

Dead by Daylight is pretty popular

Evercraft Online had an impromptu alpha for a few hours without much warning. Of course this had to have been during the Diablo 4 open beta while i was playing with hubs and friends. Oh well, time to wait 6 months for the next one

they're doing another one now

Playing it at launch I thought the way Zodiark played out was great. Surprise!

Fractured Online, I never heard of it before hearing about the hack just now. Looks similar to Albion Online but the recent reviews on Steam are pretty solid

canonically Guild Wars takes place immediately after the end of the Guild Wars. Guild Wars 2 takes place 200 300 years after the end of the Guild Wars
