excuss my stupidity but what is it that u mean when u say "The game must include some form of graphical common area." I dont c how Diablo II is not considered a MMROPG. It has a minimum of 180,000 players on at any given time. (25,000min players on the server i play [UsEast]). i personaly know of no one who plays diablo II and dose not play online. |

Originally posted by coldblitz"The game must include some form of graphical common area." is a quote directly from the MMORPG.com official description of an MMO. It basically means that to be an MMO a game has to have a place or zone where a massive amount of players can be in at the same time. This does not include chat rooms. So according to this definition guild wars and DDO are MMOs, while games like D2 and Rakion are not. |

Originally posted by deaddeathSince nobody has addressed this question, I will. Now, Rakion made it onto mmorpg.com because... because... because it just did. So now you have to deal with a non-mmorpg on an mmorpg website  It is a good game regardless anyway. If it had not been on here I would not have tried it |

you can argue tat rakion isnt a mmorpg but in fact! lol the stage rooms are like instances that you would find in guild wars or WOW.... the pvp rooms are like the arenas in guild wars or those crappy war song gulch in WoW |

Originally posted by HowlingFish but rakion does not have any sort of common, non-instanced area, aside from chat rooms. This alone disqualifies it from the MMO label. |
