Tera Online is also the origin of many alienware memes. During launch there were actual marketers talking about their alienwares and how good they were in global chat. People didn't like that. Obviously observant folks realised that pretending to game on alienware was a free and ready source of angry comments in nearly any online game. Took about 10 years for that to run out of steam. People these days generally never take it seriously but you can maybe catch one every now and then. If you're not sure boot up a mmo riddled with RNG and claim your alienware (that you definitely own) gives you better RNG because of promotional related coding. Tell anyone that gives you poo poo that they're simply jealous of your superior alienware, and that alienware beats a custom build every time because alienware is better. If anyone simply goes "lol" type "I'm sorry you're too poor to afford a good computer like an alienware". It doesn't really have the same immediate effect it used to but you know, decade old at this point. Still you never know what fish you can catch.

MH Knights posted:What has changed in modern Aion to make Classic so appealing? I played Aion at launch and gave up halfway to level cap as it was just another fairly generic KMMO who's only gimmick was (very) limited flight. It's this indeed and by far my most favourite was the Rift classic fiasco that lasted for what, 3 months?

Trion Worlds knew exactly what they were doing. It was a case of being desperate for cash, any cash, because they raised too much venture capital early on and eventually the postman knocked.

Smythe posted:everquest has always sucked and is for carebears and n00bs. just imo of course. also ive been having this flame war for 20 yrs. Way back when the game came out I unknowingly rolled on a PvP server and was killing rats outside Freeport when some guy said "wanna go hunt dark elves?" which I assumed were mobs so I said sure and we got completely demolished by some dark elf players (it was night so I didn't even see them being a human). Original UO though. Now that was the poo poo.

I'm convinced original UO was the best MMO ever made because it actually succeeded in creating a living world where players had a real impact in 1997. T2A was also good, but everything past that was trash. UO Outlands is a nice re-imagining, but everyone seems so intent on min-maxing and grinding out rare drops and/or PKing for the sake of PKing that it doesn't have the same charm for me. e: In other news, I'm back in WoW Classic for TBC. I need New World to come out so I can get my fix.

Fetch quests and raid prep are bad. Change those to an idlescape type mode so you can get pots and mats offline.

Here is a new MMO. It's Animal Crossing/Stardew Valley in a BOTW style open world with other players. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9exGByxvJjA https://www.polygon.com/22492638/palia-pre-alpha-mmo-animal-crossing-stardew-valley-social-game I'll probably never play it.

There has been a hole in the market for a big budget MMO that isn't largely focused on combat with big floating numbers and everything else just being a afterthought that indirectly makes you better at combat and then going back to the hub town to empty your inventory and look at the other players idling around with giant cosmetic 20$ wings.

I know a couple of the guys working on this, and I even like one of em but they're tech so who knows if it'll be good. I will say that the team is real actual professional video game developers from this decade so it's not a scam.

I like how every article I've seen on Palia has said "Made by former Riot/Blizzard/Zynga devs!" and then immediately qualified that with "These studios are so large that this is basically meaningless."

I already predict that all the furniture for the house is cash shop. It'll print money and be predatory as hell. Youtubers will make sensible yet exploitative videos about this and earn ad revenue.

I pretty much called it that these games would come out of early access the moment they were not longer getting a steady stream of money, and sure enough that appears to be exactly what is happening.
