You're the one who doesn't get it. The only people who could ever enjoy this game are people who want to keep track of tedious bullshit, so they're on the right track.

Is it just one person working on this and why hasn't it been fully abandon? It looks like they are only putting out releases every 3 months and it's all trivial poo poo like ammo use and tweaking their insane housing system.

If Blizzard released a patch that added nothing but two new restrictions and two new microtransactions, their player base would be howling for blood right now. PFO players are saying "Please sir, may I have another"

Is this thing still shambling in a twilight of undeath with a miniscule but devoted playerbase?

Well, it's less of an MMORPG and more of a MORPG.

Alien Rope Burn posted:Well, it's less of an MMORPG and more of a MORPG. It sounds like what they should really do to save costs is replace the PFO server with a NWN 1 persistent world server. Sure, it's capped at like 128 players, but how many people are really on PFO anyway?

Don't dump that trashfire on NWN1. It still has comparatively interesting and playable servers.

I recall NWN persistent worlds not really working out well, especially the heavy rp ones.

I thought Ultima Online was the go-to MMO where the only reason to play is griefing. Did NWN let you run around naked carrying poison pie?

No but depending on the server settings you could bring in equipment with spells that no one could resist ever so you could do various things like knock people down (which prevents them from doing anything but leaving the server), forever.

Neverwinter's controversial decision to buff Garland had some unintended side effects, I see.

Still supposedly being worked on, but no idea about the truth of their occasional updates.

Report from GenCon 2018 presentation, posted a month ago in the PFO reddit—most recent post, no comments posted:This was streamed on the official Paizo twitch at https://www.twitch.tv/officialpaizo. Small room, about a dozen folks there, just Lisa Stevens talking (and a couple helpers running tech, monitoring chat, etc.). "We need to look at a pricing model to attract more players, we don't have a lot to offer but we do want microtransactions without being honest enough to go free-to-play, also we have no staff to actually do anything."

Pathfinder Online is the game development equivalent of someone trying to eat an entire full-course buffet off of the world's tiniest plate. You have to design to your budget if you're not hauling around a cartoony sack of cash, and they clearly didn't.

What I wonder is whether or not there's someone out there who has been living full time off "developing" this "game" for the past four years, and also I bet that person gets the best daggone weed

I can't remember, did they fire everyone before or after they admitted they don't actually know how their item database works so players just please be careful with the deeds to your $5k real dollars in-game building?

I was missing out on my Pathfinder Online schadenfreude fix and figured there must have been SOMETHING in the past two months warranting a thread update..... but turns out literally nothing has happened with this game since a small patch in early August. drat. I guess it's still wheezing along?
