Well it's not the worst thing to happen to Online Games, I mean World of Warcraft is in a tailspin after all the shit they ruined mechanically over the years because they kept adding grind after grind and then removing the grinds to just add new grinds.
World of Warcraft is almost 20 years old. That's a ripe old age for an MMO and I'm not surprised that it is withering. What's the current subscriber count?
I won't go back to WoW for the same reason. MMOs removing content is stupid and shouldn't be done. Make it optional, yes. Delete it? No. You can't even play through the games quests in a narratively sensible way anymore since they removed tons of very important plot content. Guild Wars 2 was also guilty of this until VERY recently, removing part of their story if you didn't play it when it was available and claiming they couldn't bring it back - til they did.
Ever Quest is still going and that's even older. They stopped doing subscriber numbers awhile ago. But there's still no end of life plans for it outside of just releasing Classic Servers for specific versions of the game when it comes to WoW. It's just they're making these drastic changes that just seem to lack direction.
Yeah and there's still people playing Meridian 59(still sold on steam). Would that longevity be comparable to the WoW situation from a financial perspective? I swear to all the gods: God, G-d, Allah, Buddha, Börje and Odin that I will cut off my foot and send you the footage if Everquest's and Meridian 50's combined revenue is higher than WoW's.
That would certainly be something to see. Having EQ come out the winner in the end would be funny.
That doesn't exclude WoW from pulling in the big bucks even if devs and support is at (compared to the height of the game) anemic levels. Whatever EverQuest's got going they can never match that revenue and devs/support will be even weaker.
That game can look hella good. I'm sad my PS2 copy's disc is too fucked up to play anymore. Probably gonna get it on Xbox for the better visuals.
Yeah, I remember I failed a couple of easy missions in the beginning because of it. If anything, it adds to the charm, since people that only play GTA V will have to adapt to the old school controls.
I can't even do the usual linear mmo shit anymore which is the same shit just with higher numbers every expansion. imagine being an autistic mmo number number cruncher and completely missing that part.
to be fair afaik that was only season 1, which had even more dogshit writing than modern WoW (not that it got much better anyway). at least anusnet was smart enough (trying) to replicate GW1's horizontal progression, even when they went full retard before launch with "WoW has 80 levels, we need 80 levels too!". should've kept it at 20 and made the rest of the maps "endgame" instead of just brown vomit: the zone aka orr.
That was essentially the pitch of Ashes of Singularity. Never heard anyone say that the game is great but it become very popular for benchmarking.
It's PJ Pug-a-pillar from Poppy playtime. He's actually a danger. But my sperg brain just sees fluffy abomination. Hence why I wouldn't survive.
If you want to make one for yourself, start with making a meringue, add some food dye, take some baking paper, roll it into a cone, fill it up, cut off the tip to make a spritz while fucking all of these instructions up and then evacuate the abortion on an oven tray. Bake in the oven then shape the fondant to create a face of your own choosing. I am Ann Reardon and thank you for watching, please like and subscribe for more!
