The solution may be the smaller, self financed teams who are will to risk it all to try something new. They might fail in their attempt, but they might also show others that the risk could be worth it.

 

Me!

And I hope your game comes to fruitation, because even if you fail, you might inspire someone else to try something different.

Thx, and be on the lookout sometimes later this year or early next!  Might be looking for more help around that time too.

What does a "NEXT-GEN" mmorpg look and play like that makes it so "Next-Gen?"

How is it different than what's being played  today?

What do I have to look forward to?  I don't get it....

Somebody tell me... or does anyone have any idea at all????

Next-Gen... Next Generation... The next stereotype of MMORPG's, like WoW and such are the usual now. And the 2d ones were.

Excellent definition, Erandur, but what does the Next-Gen look and play like?

Like a 2D MMO!  Cause all current MMOs are just 3D GFX with a 2D system...LOL

"Next-Gen MMOG" can usually be defined exactly as follows:

All of the features that will be fun that don't exist in any MMOG today.

At least, this is how I see it being used by most forum posters.

Well I guess for most companies in the MMO market, it would be to out-sell WoW.

If that was known, you wouldn't have to ask that question. Because when it becomes the stereotype, it isn't Next-Gen anymore. The next generation is the Next-Gen MMO then. ;)

I think that next gen will be the MMO that has a classless character system but isn't skill based.

 

It will use a grouping system that does not involve being tied to other players.

Also, combat will be a twitchless non-button masher that uses non-targeting targeting.

Actually I can't come up with any concepts for game play that could be considered "Next Gen".

Stille liegt über dem Land. Nur die Stimme aus Moskau hämmert unermüdlich, monoton.
Alle sieben Sekunden stirbt ein deutscher Soldat.

Not really, it's possible the first Next-Gen MMO never will reach over 1 mil, because it is too difficult. Or too easy. It'll attract a totally different kind of people then WoW, but ignorant players don't set the stereotype... Experienced gamers do!

So that's actually the evidence that WoW has more than the famous '1337zorz', otherwise they would never set the stereotype. ;)
